Final Save and Importing

Granas3

So I just finished SoD...did not expect THAT actually. But anyway, when I came to import my game into BG2, my most recent save was the auto save at the cavern exit before meeting up with imoen again, while the file named "Final Save" was from before the last boss fight. Is this right? Which one should I import to get my stuff back in BG2 (esp. the pantaloons!)?

I would also like to know that, i gained one level in the last strench of the game but if i import the very latest save , where my char have no items will i keep my stuff in bg 2 ?

Using the final save before the final battle should work fine. Just make sure you have the items in your inventory and not in a container. There seems to be an issue where the game doesn't handle that properly when importing. Although with me it was only with the Pantaloons, so I'm not sure if applies to every item.

I don't think it matters which save you use, only stats and gear are imported.

As stated, just make sure any gear you hope to find in BG2 is in your inventory, not on a companion, and not in a container.
