Sup folks, i was thinking about the different npc's i have met so far i would like to know wut u guys think about some of them:
Valygar
Minsc
Keldorn
Anomen
By the way i'm asking just cuz i have valygar and misnc in my party and i happened to like misnc ( he is so fun like when i send him to kill a big bad demon and he says: "boo and minsc gonna crush you HaHa", so no matter how bad u say he might be ill never get him out of my party cuz i get lotta laughs with him lol) but valygar i'm not so sure about the benefits of keeping him...
P.S. for those who replied my last posts about the cd5 bug, yep i took the Asylum portal and i'm in the drow city (ust natha i guess, right!?) and so far the game havent crashed yet, =].
Thanks cya.

Anomen: look around this forem and see how many people have the 'member of the Anti-Anomen-Society' in their sig - then you'll get a good opinion of him. And although I'm not official member, I still loathe him. He is a whimp.

Keldorn: Now there is a good addition to any party - great kit - can be turned into a truely awesome tank. great NPC

Minsc: you're right Minsc is great. Try to have him hide in shadows and you'll hear: "None shall see me - although my battlecry may give me away" [img]graemlins/biglaugh.gif[/img]

Valygar: I don't like him, but he is a versatialle NPC.

I really like all the NPCs you listed above, except Anomen. What a pompous snob!
I especially like Keldorn. A great tanker with good abilities.
Valygar has the great ability of backstabbing, which makes him really great, next to his other abilities.
Minsc is always good to have if you want fun playing-sessions. He is also a good NPC, with his excellent Fighter-skills.

Anomen is a strong NPC, but his attitude will grate on your nerves.

Anomen:The best cleric around especially after he passes his test.Can attain grand mastery at weapons.Almost a tank.Excellent.
Minsc:Lousy tank. Good for fun value ONLY.The first time through the game is a MUST however.He is really funny but that's about the extent of his usefullness.
Keldorn:With the gauntlets of Dexterity and Carsomyr he becomes a good NPC.Only good if you REALLY need to use Carsomyr.Mediocre.
Valygar:KILLER.Backstab is SO sweet with the celestial fury!Only slight problem with his high AC at later stages.

Since you are intent on keeping Minsc, I would change Valygar for either Keldorn or Mazzy(if your main Character is already a Paladin, you wont need Keldorn.)

Minsc - I love Minsc. He's always in my party, no matter what! Even when I have an evil party. The poor guy has to put up with my evil character.

Keldorn - Keldorn's great. I like Keldorn a lot. Err... Why can't I think of anything else to say about him then?

Valygar - Ehh... He's okay. He gets kind of boring sometimes, but I think he's a decent NPC, and his interaction with Mazzy is fun. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Anomen - ARGGHHHHHH. DIE. Just thinking about him saying "What is it now?" in his stick-up-his-hindquarters voice makes me cringe.

If you want a laugh then get Jan Jansen and edwin(note edwins evil) in your party.

Minsc, Edwin and Jan are three of the funniest NPC's and if you get them all in your party at once then fun will really begin.

P.S out of the group you mentioned I would take Valygar along just to get into the Planar Sphere and then Dump him. Keldorn is my favourite NPC in the game, I just love Paladins, Minsc well do I even have to mention him TAKE HIM. Anomen is an arrogant little sod, but on the plus side at least he isn't a moaning whinger like Aerie
