Great Moments you don't have Screenshots of

You know. When something really cool/funny/unbelieveable happens, and you revel in it, but you lack the presence of mind to hit that good ol' PrintScreen key. I've had TWO of them, just in this past game:

Neeber- I like that sword! Do you have to sharpen it?
Lilarcor- Are YOU talkin' to ME?

Or when you return the Harper Bird to Xzar, and Lucette appears right behind him--in the very split second before she killed him, Jan chose that particular moment to open the first of his "trying to steal Boo" dialogues, and blurted out:
Jan- Minsc! Look out! Behind you!

What are some of yours? [img]smile.gif[/img]

The time that I polished of Firkraag with a Chromatic Orb (not the damage from the orb, the death effect). Of course that was after a 3x Greater Malison spell trigger, and 2 castings of lower resistance by Edwin.

Still, I wish I had a picture of Firkraag dying as his spirit wafts out of his body.

That or when I tried to finish the last fight with a solo monk. It was one on one, and my monk form was dishing out pretty much the same damage as the slayer form, but unfortunately, I suffered from too little hp and he regen'ed so fast that if I stopped to heal, he would be back to full health. I wish I could have captured all the text of that battle.

Nasty battle in Elven City. Ramalat or what ever his name is toasted the whole party with the exception of my Blade and Jaheira. With the bodies still warm, the blood still flowing, and little piles of armor and weapons scattered all over the ground, Jay pops off and says "I welcome every day I see. Some are not so lucky."

It was just one of those moments. I laughed so hard... I guess you would have to have been there

Gangrell · 01-27-2003, 10:17 PM

Screenshots... Bah!

Hmm, I'd say it'd have to be my monk's dragon one hit knock out, and recently I discovered my new favorite toy, the Staff of Law. I torched TorGal and his trolls in one huge fire fight, now that was a sight to have been seen. Other than than, I'd have to think.

MrSmith · 01-27-2003, 10:21 PM

i went to fight the demon in the svirfneblin village totally unprepared. everyone in my party was dead or held(and close to death) except keldorn equipped with wand of wonder (random spell wand). i decided "what the hell" and used it on the demon and turned him to stone! its the only time i've ever used that stupid wand.

Tom-Slayer · 01-28-2003, 12:09 AM

My favourite moment was actually on multiplaya i was a sorc board out of my mind so i went in to a game and summoned in a pit fiend .....of course i had protect from evil spell on and the peeps were dead but then out of no where this guy equips his paladin sword whats it called ? um.......well any ways he slays it in one hit and then he summons in a DRAGON!!! I COULDNT BELIVE IT !!!!! I cast time stop and RAN LIKE HELL....well actually i ran TO hell the time stop was over he ran and the dragon finished me off ......soon after i find out hes the leader of a hacker clan and hes the best on the net.Seems like the one time you need a potion of invisablitie it isnt there O HELL!! LOL

Another bit of appropriate dialogue (ToB):

After wading through almost the entire spider lair in the south tunnels of Sendai's enclave setting off all the web traps without being held a single time Korgan exclaims: "Shoddily made and shoddily maintained, but good killing grounds nevertheless."

I didn't know that he had any knowledge of spiderwebs, but his observation certainly seemed correct enough.

Brennihelvete · 01-28-2003, 08:40 AM

This was in ToB and we were wandering around in the watchers keep when Aerie aksed Imoen if she was feeling the same taint as I did. This was the only chance troughout the game to mock Aerie and that just made my day.

karlosovic · 01-28-2003, 09:35 AM

well I was gonna say, the time I went to fight Lassal (vampire in the spike trap room) without resting or preparing, just for the hell of it. The only spell I had left was chromatic orb, and it's death effect killed him in 1 go. but someone already did that to a red dragon, so I'll keep it to myself.

Although there's times when aerie is on about 20 HP and Jaheira says "don't get so wounded Aerie"... only Jaheira is on 2 HP, so you're thinking "1 tap with my Flail will shut the hypocritic B#^$^ up..."

When I was fighting the shadow dragon, Yoshimo shouted something to effect of "only weak fear dragons". Thax gave his response quickly, and about a second after that Yoshi was already running around yellow circle around his feet.
