"Mods worth playing" isn't a category that necessarily includes only "the best."

"Tyranny is a quiet thing at first, a prim and proper lady pursing her lips and shaking her head disapprovingly, asking, well what were you doing (wearing that dress, walking home at that hour, expressing those inappropriate thoughts) anyway? It's subtle and insidious, disguised as reasonable precautions which become more and more oppressive over time, until our lives are defined by the things we must avoid. She's easy enough to agree with, after all, she's only trying to help -- and yet she's one of the most dangerous influences we face, because if she prevails, it puts the raping, robbing, axe-wielding madmen of the world in complete control. Eventually they'll barely need to wield a thing, all they'll have to do is leer menacingly and we fall all over ourselves trying to placate them." -godlizard

Well I wouldn't class it down to an ambigous best mods... what exactly are you looking for Red Knight?

I heard that IA is the mod of mods. :whistling:

Weimer's Tactics is good if you like hard encounters. My mods of course are good. NPC mods like Keto and Yasraena are excellent. Valen and Chloe are good npcs if you like power gaming npcs. There is a lot of stuff out there.

My fav mods are BG Tutu for BG1 since it makes it more like BG2. And Xan NPC for BG2. (you ALL know I love that guy :wub:)
Steel is my body, fire is my blood.
I've created over a thousand blades
Unknown to death.
Nor known to life.
Have withstood pain to create many weapons.
Yet, those hands will never hold anything.

-_- Mhm.

Anyways, if its BG2 NPCs you're looking for, I'd cast my vote towards Amber and Fade. Ace's Sarah mod over at G3 is also a good choice if you're looking for a female-romancable ranger with pretty well-rounded stats.
So to summarize that:

Amber: Special skills, decent fighter/thief, intriguing character development (romance or not), allows 2Player romance.

Fade: :wub: Um... heh, she's my fav, nuff said. ^_^ :whistling:

Oh and she's a decent Fey'ri thief, with an intriguing background, so yeah. :D

Sarah: Decent Ranger, romanceable, friendship path otherwise, nice music ^_^ good with a longbow.

Oh and she's interesting and new on the scene so yeah. :)

Anyways, there's my suggestions if its NPCs for BG2 you're after. ^_^

Edit: typos... more typos... :angry:

Solar, didn't you forget something..? *rolls eyes* Something very important? Or rather, someone very important? :P

I would assume Red Knight means mods that <HESHE> can actually go download at this point, which would exclude Emmeline. Or am I misinterpreting?

I'm most certain you won't. *grin* :whistling:

Oh believe me you are misinterpreting Azzy. :D
But it'd really spoil things if I reveal things immediately.

But here's a clue, she's been out for awhile, and to hate her is death. :devil:
Literally at one point. :blink:

Either rate, she's been out... for possibly longer than all the others, though maybe not as a mod.
Okay enough spoilers, see if that helps :D

Now you're the one misinterpreting, Solar. I'm not refering to a "she", damnit! xD

Ah!
For god sakes CC, next time include a poke in the ribs or something next time, that way I would know. <_<

Ok, choice is simple:

Firstly is a "he"
Secondly, uh... heh, Lawful NPC
Thirdly, decent team member with well rounded skills.
Fourth: Is elven :P
Fan base is very extensive.
====
Hm, actually there's two NPCs that fit that budget.
Um, Space Elf... nah. xD
Ok, Darian or Xan... Am I hot or cold now CC?

I'm guessing Xan, by that "to hate... is death. Literally" comment, since Darian doesn't really give a damn if you hate him or not.

"The righteous need not cower before the drumbeat of human progress. Though the song of yesterday fades into the challenge of tomorrow, God still watches and judges us. Evil lurks in the datalinks as it lurked in the streets of yesterday, but it was never the streets that were evil." - Sister Miriam Godwinson, Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri

I think he was refering to me killing him, Tempest. *grin*

But yes, Xan is correct.

(HOW COULD YOU FORGET HIM, SOLAR?! *gonk*)

Gah! *ducks*

Okay, yes on the part it is Xan. So :cheers: to you Tempest :D

But I made one error.

*Apparantly* he's more than a decent team member.

Now if you'll excuse me, I've got a very short time in which to escape this dimension from retribution. :blink: *skiddatles*
