What is your Single most Favorite Piece of Equipment?

[Kabuki Man]

If your character could ONLY have one, Uno, Un, Eich, I, 1. One piece of equipment.

What Would It Be?

IE: You Have a nakey Monk. No armor(Duh), no rings, pendent, belt, bracers, boots, hat, or any weapons.
A strange creature comes up to you and offers you any item you wish. What do you ask for?


If I could give my char one item.. *thinks, realizing JUST how tough a question this really is.. *

I Will post Mine later.. LOL

[Khelben]

I'd want the Golden Heart of <CHARNAME>, just because it's cool, powerful and charismatic.
EDIT:what's eich?

[Urgazhi]

i love these types of q's...

anyways, my one single piece of equip would be...
um...
does it have to be a material item?

like i would ask for godhood/immortality.
(im an arcane freak)

[chevalier]

My brain that was keeping that paladin alive with his stats

Holy Avenger of course.

[Magiens Materialis]

a good bow for my elven archer.

[Taurnil]

I have a thing for rogue weapons, and so far the best one I've found is the Charged short sword of wounding +5. I like that one
Then as a weapon for my fighter, who dual wields, I like the dykhast longsword +5(6?) or also the Golden Heart of [Charname] they're both way nice.
I haven't played a Paladin yet but I'm looking forward to the Holy Avenger.
(BTW if those weapons I mentioned aren't very good, tell me some better ones please lol)

[ArrynMorgerim]

Sorry IWD2, but I would ask for Ring of Gaxx.
Regeneration, combat prowess and invisibility power, what more could I ask?

[LDusan]

Some strength modifying equipment for my paladin I guess.

[Arutha]

No brainer, that one.
The Bag of Holding, of course.

[Stitch]

Wine

[Urgazhi]

ability to change into a dragon with infinite power!

[Kabuki Man]

Khel: Japanese for 1. ^^

*Is surprised someone Thought to put down the bag of Holding!!*

I Would have to agree with that.. Loot can be fairly easy to come by.. but a magical bag that you can stow 38 suits of platemail and it ONLY way 5lbs ...

That's Nifty!

[Zurga]

An application form for joining the legion of the Chimera.

Kabuki Man, what is japanese for 2? In faroese its tvey.

I have to admit, that Ring of Gaxx really would come in handy.

As it stands right now, I find fire protection stuff to be the most handy. I go through fire storms and walls like they were some kind of candy.

[Urgazhi]

some clean undies

[Viking]

Ring of Gaxx would have been good, But I'm afraid it comes a fair way second to the Staff of the Magi.

Instant invisibility, Spelltrap all day. Would be a must for any self respecting Sorcerer.

[Kabuki Man]

Zurga (Ni: (Sounds like Knee) Not too sure on spelling)

Something i'd like to Fight, but you'll prob NEVER see in a compy D&D game..

3rd Edition Tarasque..

*Drools over treasure & Exp..*

The Tarasque Hide Sheild, Would be a sweet item as well.. But it takes 2 years to be made.. By a dwarven master Smith..

[ArrynMorgerim]

Well, staff of magi is cool, but I play fighters.
Therefore Ring of Gaxx

BTW, that Tarrasque.........

[Faragon]

Urgahzi, I'm guessing that by equipment, Kabuki means an item. But that might just be me

Personally I'd like Winged Blight.

[Mathetais]

Good point Faragon. So many humans to kill in this game. That's why my paladin carries Winged Blight.

As a side note, in NWN my elf ranger took HUMAN as her favored enemy. Those filthy creatures keep showing up!

My favorite piece of equipment ... bag of holding. I like a neat inventory screen and wish I could have six of those bad boys.

[Khelben]

Uh oh, if those nifty BG items are included,i'm going all the way with a wish scroll.

[shenlong]

The best item i can think of is the "wand of the dead"(animate death).
let them do the dirty work of killing while i can feast on the xp.
finally hope the wand dosent run out of charges.......lol

[Quicho]

An item that generates "energy", or allows it.
(From the point of global view, not an short time advantage).

What is energy? It depends. In Diablo it is something that increases mana or life regeneration.

In D&D games it could be an regeneration item, that heals "huge" hit points per round, all the time that a character has it equipped. Or imagine an item that restores spent spells (without resting of course). Another type of "energy" in D&D games are items that work without being spent in one day (not an x/day) or being spent at all (x usages - for example wands). A great item would be a wand "regenerator" that could not be spent after x usages.

Such items or actions (for Example in Vampire Masquerade the skill theft of vitae costs less vitae than it takes from target when this skill is on second or greater level) makes the game unbalanced.

Casting away all unreal wishes I think, that it depends on a character and players play style. Therefore every item that boosts a character is a great one. I love thieves. I always have one. When playing single, I play a thief if it is possible (or MC to wizard). My second choice is sorcerer.

In IWD2 (not played HoF, now somewhere in before Dragon Eye) i most liked Boots of speed (my favorite thief's equipment in many games: hide, sneak attack, run and hide - this tactics work very good in NWN, where my thief could hide before opponent's eyes - quite unbalanced ..., in IWD2 it helps in surprise attacks and battle micro-management, of course for "bomb" your own thief with fire and ice when surrounded by opponent's) and a coat that shifted character's image (forgot it's name, my game is on another computer ... far away - I can't start it and determine; works well for a sorcerer and for every fighter).

On second thought there are times when it seems to be impossible to survive - when you meet an nearly perfect immune opponent. Then the most needed item is one that can hurt this opponent or help to escape.

Wow. Sorry for this lengthy post. But today I wrote a part of an audit of IT system of a big company, I have headache and ... lost words in this second . I'm going home. I'll start IWD2 ... that will be lovely ...

[Shadow Sword]

hmm its a difficult decsision theres so many ways you could go

[Icingdeath45]

I want two realy good bastard swords for my fighter(he dual-wields).
