Although I do not like 250's way of presentation, I have to agree with his point - there is no "best" anything. There are classes, NPCs, items _you_ like and know how to use effectively. That is it. I personally like my fighters use two-handed swords. Not because they are the best weapons in the game, but because it corresponds with the image of a fighter created in _my_ mind. Someone else may say two-weapon style with Celestial Fury and something else, or Crom Fayer and Flail of Ages. Well, I won't argue with that. It is _your_ choice. The same goes to classes and NPCs - all have their pluses and minuses. Say, I cannot stand Jaheira, but it does not make her a bad NPC, she just does not suite _my_ needs. Or I like Minsc. Does it make him the best tank in the game? No. It is just _my_ personal preference.

Of course, everyone is welcome to disagree with my point of view and name their best "everything"

Yeah, I had fun posting on that Planescape/BG2 cross-thread. How about we do BG2 vs Fallout? "Oh, my god" says Aerie, "that poor psychotic mutant thing"

@250 Nameless One vs Child of Bhaal??? Sorry, it is the first time I hear about it.

@iron. Well, favorite and best are two different words, if my poor English serves me well. Everyone is allowed to have favorites, while discussions of "best" things can become very heated

As for favorites:

NPC: most probably Minsc
Class: currently Wizard Slayer. It may change anytime, though The rest is applied to this particular character.

Weapon: Vorpal Sword. Close second Sword of Chaos (saved my poor WS a lot of times in the beginning)
Bow: Elven Court Bow. I know there are better ones, but I like this one. Just because
Armor: Balduran's, if it were not so bloody expensive.
Helm: Balduran's and Vhailor's
Boots of speed.
Cloak of mirroring is cool, and so is C. of Sewers. //not for WS
