Having a thread to cover every single topic will be impossible. The idea has been suggested before, but there are simply too many things to cover. Even the fabled Dan Simpson's Walkthrough does not cover everything there is in Baldur's Gate 2, and his Walkthrough is HUGE.

I suppose I sound like a pain now, but this is my opinion. As for Boss tactics... once again there are too many variables. There is a reason why I insist a person to tell me his party makeup before I formulate a tactic for him( 90% success rate so far, I am proud to say ).

10% because either his party was too low a level, or other reasons.

Of course... there are universal rules, like how it is a bad idea to use fire-based spells on Fire Elementals. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Anyhoo, some basic rules when dealing with Kangaxx the Demi-Lich,

1) Have measures to prevent Imprisonment
2) Use +4 enchanted or better weapons
3) Use level 10 spells, needs ToB installed
4) Do not use summons

Basic rules of Dragon fights,

1) Always use summons
2) Summons in the front, melee party members at the back of the Dragon
3) Lower the Dragon's Magic Resistance and Saving Throws
4) Attempt to attain immunity to the Dragon's Breath attack
5) Do not use elemental damage that is associated with the Dragon

Basic rules of Boss fights,

1) Always use summons
2) Lower the Boss' Magic Resistance and Saving Throws

This is merely a drop in the ocean. If you have anymore specific requests, feel free to ask. [img]smile.gif[/img]
