not enough evil NPC's

Onyx · Post by **Onyx** » Tue Apr 16, 2002 1:01 am

There is not enough evil NPC's in this game, if someone wishes to make a full 6 person party. Unlike BGI, there were 6 evil NPC's in that one, if my memory serves my well, in BGII there are only 3 to find, plus you. Not that i play an evil character, but last night i decided to start playing an LE thief, dual from fighter. So that leaves me with, Kargain, Edwin, Viconia and if i do move on to ToB then also Sarevok. No, i am not going to keep Imoen. I wish there was an evil bard in this game. Also, i wish they kept Xzar & Montaron, (i think that was his name).

Why on earth could you not accept Haer'Dalis, Cernd or Jan in your party? As long as they're willing to serve your purposes, why shouldn't you, being so very evil and all, use them?

Cernd can cause problems if you want to handle the Druid Grove the evil way.

Jan Jansen complains if you choose the evil options in some of the Underdark quests, but otherwise is probably all right.

Haer'Dalis seems to work well with evil parties, so he'd be a good choice to add to your party, unless you just don't like bards.

At the end i did go with Haer'Dalis, he is a good backup.
So it a party of 5, until i get Saravok.

Oh yes, i WILL be EVIL this time.

Well, if you are truly evil, you can still kill him after you get Sarevok.

And the sad part would be you loosing a lot of nice loot and XPs.

yeah i agree... missing a lot of stuff.

Evil NPCs in BG2 lack quantity but fortunately not quality. I agree that the lack of choice is a little annoying, but you don't need more than four members in your party. Your PC should have some thieving skills, but playing an evil pure or mc/dc thief is certainly fun.

Amen to that! Viccy, Korgy and Edwina are already too much of an evil thing! They are very well scripted and the voice acting is second to none. IMHO, viccy romance is the best among the three and the continuation in ToB is taken to new heights.

An evil thief (in any class) would most certainly complete the party.

Yeah, but this time, for a change, i'm playing a fem. character, so no romance this time, just kill kill all the way until i get to the throne of bhaal. mmwwaaaahahaahahahaaaa

I always play a halfling thief, so no romance for me in that evil party!
