Hello!

I was looking at weapons here http://mikesrpgcenter.com/bgate/melee.html (CTRL+F, type "flame tongue" to get to the entry quicker) and I noticed flame tongue gets a bonus against regenerating monsters. Which monsters in BG1 have regeneration? I think loup-garou has it but that's all that comes to mind.

Thank you for replying.

Edit: typo

It's a lore thing. The sword itself is flagged as both silver and cold iron, which is what gives it those properties. BG2 dropped the silver and cold iron flags for specific effects.
It isn't just the silver and cold iron properties (those are relevant only against the Greater Wolfwere anyway), but it has also additional THAC0 and damage against lycanthropes (+1 additional, meaning +2 total), winter wolves (+2 additional, meaning +3 total) and undeads (+3 additional, meaning +4 total). This is done using opcode 177 (use EFF file).

Edit:by lycanthropes I mean all of them, even the ones that do not regenerate.
