Baldur's Gate Trivia
Trivia
Do you know the answers to these? Hint: Most of these are classic RPGs that received critical acclaim.
• 1. Made of flesh that is not their own, and lurking in a cave by the sea. Classic case of highly efficient statistical farming via on-rest spawns (solo maxes lvl in 30 mins flat). Who knows the enemy and game here referred to?
—Solved by David M! (Warning: Clicking the link will spoil the answers. See how many you can get, first, and then let me know how you did in the comments section, if you like.)
• 2. They give you a solid early material boost (dat armorset) and their daggers and darts scale from iron to silver and beyond to keep them relevant as a source of income, whenever you need it. Rest to provoke. These guys were introduced by an expansion. Who are they and what game/expansion are they from?

• 3. Killing packs of the cold and cadaverous inside the eye of a dragon, over and over again. This is a lucrative on-rest spawn to farm, at least for a few levels. Who knows the game?

• 4. Steampunk questing or overworld killing... The latter yields more wealth and powah, and in far less time. A classic case of overworld leveling and wealth gain. Game?

• 5. Epic vamps and ghosts lurking in the vault of a dead god. Highly efficient material and stat-farming via on-rest spawns (several levels in 30 mins). What is the item-type farmed and what is the game?
—Solved by David M!
• 6. Baatezu lingering outside the flophouse. Prime candidate for stat-farming. Also, giant worms and rare greater "somethings" (that may drop godly items even more rarely), both lurking in a subterranean environment. These three are examples of respawns that occur as a result of area transition (enter/exit spam). This is Diabloesque; indeed, it represents a parody on farming. Game, what are the "somethings", and where are they and the worms farmed (name of dungeon)?

• 7. Several rats in the basement of a home. And a large, wild feline. I kill the feline and let the rats repeatedly attack me. Armor stat maxed in no time! Game, and in what town does this sordidness take place?
—Solved by David M!
• 8. Floaters, centaurs and aliens don't do well against a party packing gauss rifles. Another classic case of leveling on the overworld. Game?

• 9. I find a piece of parchment. I unfurl it to learn its contents, then I unlearn it - rinse repeat for non-trivial experience point gain. What game is this?
