[QUOTE="Jedi_Solo, post: 3640454, member: 40245"] Is that the sequence with the Drow and all of their [bleep]ing poison attacks? Can I nominate a sequence? Whatever the sequence is in Pools of Darkness with the Drow gets my vote. I can get past any single fight okay, but then the next one comes along and I lose half of my party to insta-kill poison. My vote for the single hardest fight is in the BG2 expansion against the wizard that turns into a dragon half-way through the fight. After your party severly beats up this wizard he changes into (his natural form if I remember a correctly) a dragon and then all heck breaks loose. At that point a massive Dispel Magic goes off (destroying all buff spell prep work) and is followed by dragon fear affects and is finished with a buffet of confusion, hold person/monster, charm and domination spells. Any prep work I did before the fight gets destroyed from the Dispel Magic and after my massive cheating and dropping the difficulty down to the lowest level it still took multiple attempts before I had a party member survive his dominated companions long enough to take out the dragon. Edited to add: And the fact that even after giving up and cheating in multiple ways I would think that I was doing something massively wrong in that fight. I later looked at the guide book that a friend of mine picked up and - nope; no indication that I missed something. Just a statement that said 'this fight could be tough' or something along those lines. [/QUOTE]
