is there any type of BG2 hall of fame? i'm no sure how it would work, but say if someone could prove that they solo'd with a bard on the hardest level they would rank higher than someone who had 5 people in their party and played on the easiest level. is there anything like that out on the web?

and if so, how would the maintainers prove that so & so actually did what they said they did? i wonder.....would it be possible for the people who host this site (www.ironworksforum.com) to run this?

i think that it would create alot of playing for people who have already beat it and know the ins and outs of the game. anyway we could set this up?

Hmm... I've never heard of anything like that, although I suppose it might exits... no iea how you could prove it, though, since with cheats/SK you could probably hack just about anything, if you're clever and remember the various pertinent things... an interesting idea though... hmm...

I got it... Number one on the hall of fame would have to be a Solo Jester on insane difficulty. Whoever pulls off that definately deserves no.1 in the hall of fame.

Nope, what would be an achievement will be soloing a pure Kensai on Insane Difficulty with minimum stats without cheating.

This sounds like fun, I think I'll give it a go, but what race do you propose, bearing in mind that if I chose a dwarf, I would recive +5 so both saves vs spells and +5 to saves vs death, and the minimum constitution would be 12 which would make life much easier than using a human with all stats 3 and 9 STR? The dwarf would therefore have 90 HP at level 9, and the human would have a max of 72. Suggestions?

i'd say that the hardest thing would be soloing at insane difficulty with min. stats with a human mage - class illusionist. no spells, no weapons, no armor and almost NO HP at all. try beating a dragon with a sling, quarterstaff, dart or dagger.

ok, this is getting kinda lame... why not solo with a rat?

You have to give yourself a normal ability roll, say... 60 points distributed in a logical way for your class. This would represent an average person.

You can! Using the Cloak of the Sewers! To solo as a rat from the beginning however, requires cheating. You have to code in the CotS into your inventory, then morph into a rat and stay as a rat!

"This rat is the chosen one? Hahahaha!"

Rat morphs into the Slayer.

"AIIEEEE!!!!"

Well I think that Dundee is no.1.... there is never gonna b any competition. But obviously the best way to find out ho is the best at fighting would be to have multi-player duals... UN-HACKED of course.
