The only mod I ever used for BG2 was the "BG2 Fixpack" that corrects some bugs that are left after the official patch.
I'm of the opinion that BG2 doesn't really need any mods.

Wheeee!
i also recommend the Fixpack, but nothing else on your first playthrough (except maybe the widescreen mod if you have a LARGE screen).

There's a mod that restores some of the content that was cut before release and ties up some quests that don't complete, Unfinished Business IIRC. I liked that one.
Additionally, and it might be in the FixPack, but there were some items and merchants only available to people that bought the collector's edition, and there is a mod that makes them available to everyone.
Outside of that, I agree, not worth adding too many of the others in.

Anyone try out the Banter Pack? I'm thinking of adding it before I finally get around to BG2 again. It sounds like it could be really great or completely suck, depending entirely on the quality of the writing.
Anyone have any thoughts on it?

Banter Pack is ok - nothing great. It does have some amusing Minsc/Lic banters if I remember. Make sure you install the banter speed up option.
SCS2 is the was to go for a second play through. Without it it is way too easy. Just don't go too overboard with the difficulty options.
Unfinished Business is ok – nothing great.
Revised Battles can be amusing.
Nothing really stands out besides the g3fix/tweak packs.

The banter pack for BG1 was very well done. I didn't like everything in it, but it made the game much more like BG2 in terms of interaction.
There are various banter packs for BG2, IIRC. They may have been combined though. I remember one for Vicirona for ToB because for whatever reason, she has virtually zero banter in ToB.

You guys have done it. I'm back to BG2!!!
Wow turns out to be extremely disappointing (cata didn't grab my interest at all).
As for the mod, I recommend:
Unfinished Business
Banter Pack
Cross mod banter (if you plan to install more than 1 mod NPCs)
Kelsey (sorcerer NPC with good humor)

I finally met this "Director"… let me just say that I was a little surprised. I definitely had to rest after that little encounter, that entire place is crawling with some large groups of strong stuff. The Director certainly didnt make things easier!
