Err... when I got bored (this happens frequently), I either post on forums and such or I experiment with stuff.
In BG2 you used to be able to summon a demon (Via gate, cacofiend, etc.) that would rampage everywhere around town and kill everyone that it saw, you could protect evil your party and watch the demon mercilessly slaughter beggers, guards, merchants, townspeople, dogs, cats, rats, and small children for no loss of reputation.
When I tried this again sometime later it didn't work, I lost rep for the DEMON killing peasants , which technically isn't right cause I have NO control over it, and the creature itself is of course hostile. Is this something that was addressed in the patch or did I catch a fluke?

My guess is that it was fixed in a patch so you WOULD lose reputation. After all, you DID gate the thing in.

But true that you have no control over it.

Realistically, you should only lose reputation if they could tell it was you.

Theoretically, you should be able to Gate it in when no-ones watching, let it kill a few people, then show up and kill the demon - and actually GAIN reputation!

you used to be able to do this in full sight of people

Too bad the developers didn't divide rep into reputation and moral stature. That way, you could gain rep with the monster gate if you helped kill the creature, but lose significant moral stature (that might affect powers, temple healing, etc).

Found this a while ago - haven't tried it yet, but it's supposed to do something like that.

Sounds like fun.

Yes, I saw that, too. Haven't gotten around to trying it out yet, though.
