How far have you gotten so far?
Also, post Arisen's/Pawns
The artbook is legit.
I got to that point right after you make a character. Then I remembered that I'm depressed and that all video games are shit. So I quit.
I'm very much enjoying it
got my arse kicked by those things under the pawns guild
now I've got to take on 3 fucking giants in a mine
I want to like this game. I really do. It just feels really boring to me for some reason. I'm level 26, and it feels like there's basically no progress.
I'm doing nothing but fighting bandits and wolves. Bandits and wolves. Day time, bandits half of the time, wolves a third of the time, and then goblins sometimes. Night time, wolves, wolves, wolves, wolves, more wolves, infinitely spawning wolves, and then some bandits. Every once in a while I hit a wandering undead, ogre or chimera which breaks up the monotony. Sometimes a dungeon where it's something a little bit more fun.
Then there's the character progression - it feels like there almost isn't any. Level up, and don't really feel any stronger, even after going back to learn new skills. Comparing gear is a bit of a pain in the ass considering not all stats are shown when looking at something new, and then you also have to upgrade it to actually really compare anything.
I'm going to keep playing to see if it gets any better since I'm only 15 or so hours in. This is still a very tedious early game though, if that's what it hopefully is. The pawn system is interesting at least, I do like that quite a bit.

I was thinking of getting it but after reading this I think I'll pass
is the gear in the inn DLC gear?

Is your Arisen supposed to be john lennon?
Finishing up whatever sidequests are left before speaking with the Duke.Just finished that quest in the crypt and hot damn Mason is one hardcore motherfucker.

>>324241285
Are you a viking?
I got to Gran Soren. I'm a bit overwhelmed right now because the story isn't seemingly leading anywhere, and I've got these lots of quests there that I have no idea how and where to do.
>>324240826
Just did the Female Bandit quest. It's been a damn long journey for that shitty amount of gold and XP.
>need female pawns so they won't attack me
>hire some random slutty dressed fighter just standing about
>later, fighting snow harpies
>one of the fuckers manage to lift me up
>it flies me so high I can feel the wind is pushing me
>drops me, falling for so long I thought I had entered the everfall
>suddenly, fucking Pamela, the slut fighter catches me, saving me from sure death
>a second later she picks up a barrel and throws it enflaming 4 fucking harpies at the same time
That bitch just became my MVP now.
Also. To do this one quest I have killed a total of 4 ogres and 3 chimeras. Shit's insane. All wearing Ladies Garb as well.
>>324241176
All you're doing is confirming to me that there's basically no progression to be had outfit wise unless it's a blatantly obvious upgrade. Like that stupid DLC princess gown that over half of the pawns are wearing.
That's not a good thing. Calling someone a retard because they expected better of the game doesn't really paint the game in a good light.
Doing all the sidequests I can before starting royal jobs. Also working on getting gear up to par.
>go to do the metal golem fight for its staff reward
>get a staff upgrade on the way there and another just before the fight
>his was still better
Not that the staves helped with him
How do I tell my pawns to fuck off, I dont want them around
Huehuehue
>>324241301
What I mean by this is that you're supposed to go with the gear that looks the coolest of course, there's no need for comparing of stats when it's beauty you should strive for
>>324241373
I called you a retard because you're min maxing when the stats on your armor are nigh meaningless, you should always go for what looks best
>>324241368
Why are you standing next to Hitler, anon
>>324241391
Use a rift stone and talk to them inside.
Story wise, I'm still at Gran Soren after arriving, I'm enjoying some exploration and side quests.
I switched my character from strider to the dual-hands class but I think I'll switch back to Assassin, I enjoy speed more.

I don't think you know what this term means Anon. Trying to see if you can upgrade your gear once every few levels is not min maxing, and if you think it is you have some mental issues of your own.
>>324240945
Wish there actually were more large monsters in the overworld.

>>324241535
>use ferrystone
>done in a second
>>324241236
Yeah, there's some DLC gear you can get early at Cassardis and some stuff you can get at Gran Soren. The shit you get in Cassardis is better than the outfits you get in GS imo. More customization, outfits take up all armor slots. Would use the outfits if they didn't look so goofy to me.
>>324241520
inventories are set by game stage, which is controlled by where you are in the main quest
>>324241535
use a ferrystone and collect your free XP
>finished this on the 360 about 3 years ago
>afraid I'll just get bored of it playing it again
Maybe I'll pick it up during a sale or something.
>>324241520
just do the fucking idol quest
also gear in vendors is linked to main story progression, NOT level
>>324241553

Fuck people who put their pawns in the princess gown set. Refuse to hire any pawns who use DLC gear.
does anyone else get a white border at the edge of the screen?
>>324241597
Quit trying to fucking min max the game and just enjoy it.
>>324241535
...just use your ferry stone and its instant completion
I take it all those escort quests from the starting village to places I've never heard of yet are meant to be done significantly later, or do they disappear eventually?
>>324241467
How dose it make you feel that the real set isn't in the game faggot
>>324241043
Yeah those ogres are a real pain at such low levels, they take some time to down.
I recommend taking a warrior with you so that it's easier to knock them down.
>>324241638
its not really DLC gear for PC tbqh
>>324241638
I use the DLC dark blue robe on my witch, I think it really fits her. But yeah, I'm prioritising aesthetics above all else, and refuse to put any head gear on her because of it.
>>324241543
Dumb hippie
>>324241597
stop being a fag.
the reason is you are using broken DLC shit from the original game. it's better than all of the lower level shit.
do the main quest and the idol quest, new weapons.
Does any one else hate the fucking inventory system?
It's such a pain in the ass.

Eh. It's usable.
Speaking off. Anyone playing with m&k? I couldn't get skills working nicely so I gave up. Really liked the controls otherwise.
>>324240826
I love some of the shit the Pawns say
>>324241090
Seconding this. Not so much the fact that it's a tedious grind -- I've fought very little in terms of wolves and bandits -- but rather the fact that the game hasn't been all that interesting.
Everyone hyped it up with this whole, "compare melee/magic/ vs dark souls and skyrim!" shit but the combat is equally as bland. Just because it's a little flashier or allows for you to climb on an enemy doesn't make it intuitive or fun.
I did have an interesting encounter on my way to the Bandit Lair, when a chimera popped out from the treeline and bum rushed my group. Would have been an interesting battle had they not shoehorned this same fight in in the totally unnecessary tutorial level (seriously, WHY do games do this? Would have been perfectly fine starting at the beach.)
I just don't know, man. I was late to the party with Dark Souls and I fucking love that shit, so this game just seems so... I don't know... generic and a step back from what I want from video games?
Kinda went on a tangent there, but that's how I feel. It's not a bad game but it does feel like... I don't know, boring.
(You are not the vessel.)
>>324241543
Smooth McGroove?
>>324241683
It's basically cheater gear is what he's saying, and I agree with him. You can call it whatever you want.
This game is odd. The bandits directly before the Witchwood entrance have guys among them who can kill me in 2-3 hits, but everything in Witchwood itself is piss easy. I spent less time exploring the woods than I did reloading because of bandits instakilling all three pawns and bumrushing me.

A bit disappointing of my beard, but aside from that I like me.
My pawn is on my right.
>>324241429
As someone who has yet to touch the Magick Knight class but know's a great cannon is basically a 'hit to fire magic missile' skill, what exactly is going on here, how is it self firing?
>>324241960
It's should be in your storage if you hit Gran Soren. If you accidentally sold it, tough bananas to you. Start over again in hard mode, and then downgrade to normal mode so you can keep the same character design.
Where /when do you get the DLC stuff? i just did the tutorial up to the chimera and created my toon but havent started yet.
>>324241963
Fishermen truly don't venture far
I broke my left analog stick.
What do?
>>324241809
You faggots need to stop asking for ratings because you will always look generic as fuck. This game doesn't have very deep character customization.
>>324241886
the tutorial level is the demo
they are trying to sell games and show mechanics
besides, the chimera is low tier monster. even the cockatrice is better. there is more to find that you havent gotten to, including BBI and endgame
>>324241939
Are you talking about the shit you get from The Black Cat or the Olra's coat + ugly shit dlc?
Cus the BBI shit isn't really that good imo. But it does look pretty good. Not that it matters because I rock the Bandages 4eva,
>>324241207
I suppose not, since pawn haven't been rented even once.
I refuse to believe she is that bad. I hope we can get all the beastiary, rewards and rift crystal when they fix it.
>>324242087
You get most of it after you hit Gran Soren. It shows up in the storage at the Inn.
>>324242123
Pawn system is busted right now. You'll get no reweards from people using your pawn, and no indication that they've been used.
>>324241939
does it have good stats or something? i didnt even really look at it because i found the thong pretty quickly
>>324241090
>it's one of those "I wanted to like it. I really did" posts
fuck off
>>324241939
I like that knight set on my pawn too much to give a shit honestly. I'd change if I could find any other armor that made him look better, but I can't.
Are Ranger pawns useless? they never seem to use the fucking bow.

>>324242109
I guess that makes sense.
And I suppose, even though it was the same fight I'd done in the tutorial, it was better done than any dragon fight in Skyrim.
I guess I should just stop being so jaded and just keep playing. Maybe have faith it'll get better. No use sticking around in these threads, since they're all "LOOK AT MY PAWN PLS RATE" or "ughh the level 30 bandits why" or "is pawn system broken? WHY WONT ANYONE RENT MY WAIFU."
How the PS3 vets have not lost their shit over this I have no idea. I applaud your patience, good sirs.

I don't know if that makes me feel better or not.
The combat in this game is shit, broken and boring as fuck.
Why even have a dodge button if it can't be utilized properly?
Why is there no lock-on?
Not enjoying the hard mode but I get the feeling that if I switch to normal the whole think will get even more boring and tedious.

>>324241845
Pawn looks fine. The Arisen reminds me of the edge-elf in Dragon Age 2.
>>324242703
Actually, if you rehire the pawn and then send them off with a proper rating before going to an inn bed, you can prevent the total 3/3/3 dicking.
>>324242656

Your pawn has probably been hired, felt up and tossed around by a bunch of autists who later fapped to her silky smooth 60fps textures.

>>324242812
At the moment the pawn renting is bugged, you can't see if your pawn's been hired by anyone and any gift that you might give to pawns will disappear completely. Unless you've made it far into the game you can see how knowledgeable your pawn is against 'unfamiliar foes' somewhere in its stats tab. Unless you've killed a variety of monsters with your pawn by your side it'll have obtained knowledge of rarer monsters from other players.

>but everything in Witchwood itself is piss easy.
I didn't like the Witchwood because the flying ghost assholes kept fucking possessing me, I couldn't deal any damage to them because lel greatsword only, and my pawns dealt fuck all in terms of damage whilst refusing to give me elemental buffs.
So I ran around and found a route that basically allowed me to skip the entire area by sticking to the mountains and falling down directly in front of the witch's house. There were some chests with useless shit up there, too.

>>324243218
Golems are resistant to magic, and seeing as pawns are barely ever able to hit the glowing weakspots that are the only way of damaging it, you're going to have a hard time with them.

My little arisen and her little elf pawn.
Surprisingly this is the first run where I've raised Quina's, Selene's, Jewtit's and the Duke's bitch's affinity to max.
Did I do a good job with my witch, /v/?
>>324243363
Aha, thanks.
>>324243374
Your pawns are only able to hit an enemy well if they have the appropriate knowledge of it. If they're not 3-starred on it, which they probably won't be, they're not smart enough to go for the weak points.
I've read getting the mage heavy strike augment helps out. I think it's vocation level 7 or something?

If you hire not shit mages who debuff shit you won't need heals. It honestly isn't a very good spell, if it cured to 100% regardless of wound damage then it mite b kool though,

Do you realise who David Bowie is?
so I want to be a MA so I started with mage/sorc
Have to admit Sorc is fucking painful to play, do I realy need Sorc and Ranger Augments or can i just play MA?
So explain this to me.
Instead of creating only your own character and playing the game you create your entire party in this game?
The AI is good?
>>324243492
Looks perfect, and literally the only reason to use the two different eye color options.
Would hire if pawn
This game is as tedious and boring as I remembered it.
Combat is fun with certain classes but the whole world is just full of nothing and boring.
>>324243571
Mine assassin, thinking to increase my magick atk/def , MA or MK ?
>>324243602
Devs removed almost everything that was berserk shit from the game files or locked it behind some jap magic.
>>324243673
Nosferatu is rocking that shitty princess garb pretty well.
What should my pawn's vocation be?
I'm an MA
>>324243698
You don't create a party, you create a follower.
You can then hire two other people's followers.
>>324243510
Play sorc for the whole game, Then swap to MA when you've farmed the last boss several times over. NOTE: Doing it this way will not actually allow you to PLAY the game as a Magick Archer, since there will be nothing left to do. It WILL give you the highest MA damage output however.
Alternatively, level from 10-100 as sorc and then go MA. Stat gains are lower after level 100 anyway.
My advice? Just play whatever you want, minmaxing is for aughtists.
>>324243698
No.
You create your main character (The Arisen)
Then you get to create a 'pawn' as a follower.
Your pawn will follow you for the entire game, and you can hire up to two other pawns at a time, and switch them whenever you want.
If you go online you can hire other peoples pawns
>>324243696
Sorc gets better the more time you put into it, with the casting augments and the Wyrmking ring you can nuke the fucking world. You go from slow channeling piss ass damage man, to Moderately slow channeling I'm going to nuke the world man.
>tfw qtiest Arisen
>>324243218
Normal arbalest shots deplete it much quicker, I took him down in 5 minutes or so just by taking down every front plate and then finally going head to head when he enrages with his final back plate.
>>324243698
You only create your own pawn, the other two you have to rent from other players.
And the answer is maybe, because the AI is dependant on how well the pawn has been taught by it's owner. So at worst they're idiots and at best they're god damn veteran masters who eat dragons and shit smaller dragons.
>>324243698
You create 2/4, and can recruit the other two. You recruit other player made characters, so you may need to shuffle around a bit if you're only going for looks to find someone that's not a loli.
The AI can be good.
>>324243651
Nah, unfortunately. But it's 22 usd, dude. Just buy it for Ur Dragon and online shit, like I did.
>>324243526
Its in a search spot by or on the bridge iirc, but yeah its in that general area near all the shitbag Saurians.
>>324243771
ugly looks like retard
>>324243698
You create two characters.
The character you control ("Arisen") and a main Pawn. Every time you rest in an inn, the Pawn's level, abilities, and equipment save. This version of the pawn can be recruited by other players.
Likewise, you can recruit other players' pawns to max out a total of 4 characters (1 arisen [you], and 3 pawns).
The AI is pretty good, and dependent on a lot of factors. Picking up a pawn that has already fought an unfamiliar enemy, for instance, might reveal its weakness (thanks to that random ass strider I picked up for telling me to chop off lizard dudes tails).

>>324243635
No, storage preserves them. Therefore, stick everything you have in there.
>>324243647
>It honestly isn't a very good spell
It is though, you're just being a contrarian dipshit if you disagree. It's all well and good to dodge everything yourself, but your pawns won't be so lucky.

Full Moon Slash
Seems I lost out on him having 3 Star knowledge of Dripstone Cave because I didn't go in the back entrance first. So now I'm tempted to try and restart via Hard Mode just to nab it as he's level 19 or 20 now, and I don't think anybody is going to hire him to grab that bit of knowledge for me.Especially since I haven't started adding people for free pawn whoring.
>>324243602

Fighter/Warrior to tank enemies and draw attention away from you while you decimate the enemy lines with ranged laser light show attacks.
Also assuming you're new, using MA early on won't be too good in the long run as their stat growth isn't the best. Try building up a good magic damage stat as a sorcerer for a while.

>Want to wield a mace

>>324244243
Sweet, ty.
I tried to like the wannabe seism, but the cast time makes it utterly worthless.
>>324241090
If you get the warrior augment(level one, ain't even gotta play that bitch but do it anyway for the +20% str augment) for +50 defense and wear some decent armor, any heavy will do, you'll be fucking invincible for the main game. Not even cyclopses will hurt you. As for weapons, the best in shop should suffice, but you can find higher level ones if you stray from the main path and find some higher level zone to ransack.
The game picks up a lot in the everfall and BBI. Everfall has a hell of a lot of bosses.
>>324244276
because its a 2 handed weapon,
go play mystic knight to use 1h maces
>>324242386
Give it to you reach BBI at least. That part of the game is very different from the start.
>>324242231
Increasing difficulty resets the game, so you can get your eternal ferrystone back.
>>324242231
Not everyone wants to play on hard mode on a level 1 character. If you start a new game it overwrites your custom character. If you do hard mode you can import the design, and skip the tutorial.
You already know this though, so I suppose I'm talking to a wall.
>>324240826

Eh, not really. I did a solo run on PS3 and I honestly have more fun duoing with my pawn.
Honestly, once they get trained its hilarious the crazy shit they'll do if they've watched you do it enough.
>Mage/Sorc pawn - I'd douse the enemy with oil/water flasks so she could light them aflame/stun them
>Swap her to Strider when I go sorc, she literally does the same thing for me
then again, I always role with a Util/Chal or Util/Miti main pawn so there is that. I've tried every other inclination combo and aside from my Pioneer/Util Ranger who just disappered and I'd get XP whenever I traveled at night, that is what has worked best for how I play.

>>324243979
To get to 100% I have to use curative items I could have used instantly already, not to mention I can slot an actual useful skill in its place.
If Wound damage wasn't a thing, again it would be a good spell. But it is, so it isn't. But I'm guessing you don't have access to spring water yet, because when you do, you'll understand how bad Anodyne really is in comparison.

Not that anon
It's chance based, so the spot might not work
Go out from Gran Soren through the northenmost gate, and cross the northen bridge.
At the crossroads, go west
Keep going west until you find saurians, then, go south-west to the river's shore
There's a million saurians and a couple of fishing spots, one of them is the one. Can't tell you which one because while i was gathering one, my pawn was out of sight and he got it.

Just got to Gran Soren. My Arisen/Pawn.
>>324245340

Let me guess, you did it solo as MA, you might as well have been playing on easy.

her inclinations and skills are fine I guess nobody rents sorcerers/mages
also fuck DLC gear, I'm sick of cosplaying pawns
Is it possible to have multiple saves in PC version? I mean, can I just take saves away and start a new game without anything getting messed up?
I want to mage better looking arise and pawn, but since no rift shekels from rents I need a new game.

>>324245767
Loli pawns are the worst, They have annoying VAs and they're stupid as fuck, all of them.
Case in point: this image right here. Look at where that stupid loli is standing, right on the cliff's edge. Take a wild guess what happened.
Meanwhile based Jin Vance, elf of unknown origins, told me every weak point on the cyclops and helped me fuck its shit up while loli stood on the edge of a cliff getting interrupted before finally plunging to her death.
We need less lolis and more Jin Vances.

>>324245908
Not sure if that's every possible to mod in.
Not having multiple saves (and the awkward save system) has everything to do with pawns.
You'd have to do a lot of modding to add in online functionality of multiple saves. Offline mode multiples saves such be possible though.

>>324246172
I think a lot of quests are tied to certain progressions, but I'm not sure if they actually time out if you don't do any quests.
Like, if you advance in the main quest, some sidequests become unailable. That's for certain.

My arisen's an archer named Asama and my main pawn's is a warrior named Adele.
Gonna make them Ranger and Knight respectively.

Is that the 'broken' part everyone is complaining about? Is it the only broken part of the pawn system?

I hope they'll at least fix the pawn system by that time.

With magic or items?
Man fighters can look sexy. I'm so proud of my pawn. He does his job so well, unlike so many of the other pawns I recruit that run out by themselves and get killed.

Who else knew you could shoot down ballista bolts with your own arrows? because I spent like 10 minutes shooting them out of the air and seeing how close I could get the explosion to me.
>>324246774
i forgot how to trigger that quest. is it after the griffon?
>>324246748
Bug. You should be able to heal.
Are you using magic or curatives?
>>324246837
Are you sure it's not at maximum restorable already? If you want to restore more you need to use items.
Because my pawn always heal me with magic outside combat all the time.
>>324246476
I'm going to start a new game when the rental werks again, gonna stop playing until then.
I'm sure they will fix it soon.
So, I pirated this game to see if my computer would run it, and it did. it ran just fine. Knowing that my pc would run it, I bought it from steam, but now the performance is much worse than it was with the pirated version. Anyone know what could cause this?
>>324246715
>>324246837
You can't heal above the grey bar with magic. You'll have to use items to heal above that.
>>324246884

just make sure you buy all the augments and core skills, since they carry over, and fighter has one that extends the window for perfect block.

>>324247136
Sorceror if you are okay with waiting for BIG spells. Like, holy shit big spells, like you cast "I'M NUUUUUUUUCLEARRRRR" level spells. Long casting time though.
Magic archer if you want seeking arrows and some cool combat mechanics like bouncing arrows or tracking multiple targets at once or arrows that light up rooms. Plus you're still worth your salt in melee. you'll be good at everything, but nothing you do is really going to be earth shattering
>>324247220
i'd rather have DaS2 style of combat.
>>324247123
>>324247237
you can also use it to remove the standing up animation after jump + strong attack, dealing twice the damage.
>>324240826
Made a generic dude and wumyn pawn because I CBA with character creation.
I picked assassin. Kinda finding it boring. IDK what class I want to pick though.
I might go Warrior, Sorcerer or Mystic Knight. Meh.
Are there any core skill that allows to get up faster after being knocked down?

>>324247407
gotta give that a try
I grinded and grinded to give my ranger pawn knowledge 3 on drakes. She's a ranger and I just hand her 20 or so blast arrrows and she just rapes the wings off instantly by never missing. Then she only uses charged shots on the heart and drakes just die instantly. My god was it worth it.

A few questions.
I did play a little on the xbox, and I remember after meeting the Duke, I spoke to a young fair maiden. I kinda don't want to go through that agian, Is there any reasons, other than the experience of a sidequest to do it again?

Think that's what you're supposed t do.
I played strider so It was easy to make the jump.
>>324247532
You only need the slates when you get the quest there and you can't even turn them in before doing the first part of it first.

>>324247487
>does do shit against bosses too?
Well I've knocked down chimeras with it, and the good thing is that you can dodge in one direction, and do the follow up in another one.
And the area of effect is not small, it affects a bunch of enemies.
As for the combo, X -> Exodus -> Exodus is way faster, knocks down people reliably, does way more damage, and leaves the enemy open to, say, Whirlwind or Jump + Y
You can also do X -> Pause X core skill until you stop hitting enemies, THEN do it, you'll hit anyone who escaped the initial attack
>>324247616

And worst part is, there is a fucking heavy armored guy with big ass hammer in bandit group around the main road. When I saw it, I thought one hit and its over. That dude hit me for 1/5 of my hp and planted me into the ground. Meanwhile bandit 300 meters away with a wooden shield and longsword kills me in one hit.
Its shit design. And they will defend it like its their dying mother.

>>324247937

>>324247565
Yeah talking to her unlocks an assload of sidequests. You have to do it at that exact section. Also you get vocation points from just killing shit, although the less experience the enemy is worth, the more you typically get. Best way is usually by killing goblins.

I honestly wonder what is even the point of other spells. Meelee scum sure must suffer having to run after every single enemy while as a staff user you can simply just kill them from miles away even if outside of your screen view

Fucking so sick of female pawns. Holy shit, stop making the same fucking white haired female pawns. I don't want to hire any more of them.
>>324248075
Playing as assassin, I feel like this is pretty true for bow vs melee even against larger enemies.
>>324248219

>>324248307
You can if the class uses daggers.
>>324248343
I haven't seen any female pawns with white hair. Everybody is giving their pawn the Duchess dress though and it annoys me.
>>324248250
Indomitable, for me, is extremely situational and doesn't do enough damage to justify it. I changed it for Whirlwind since that one is faster and most enemies get launched by it.
It does cut the backwing animation short, but not enough IMO, you'll not remove all the frames, just a couple. But if you don't do the last one, and instead go directly to exodus, THEN you'll remove almost all frames, it's almost instantaneous.
>>324248303
I hope you realize how much of an idiot you sound like. Why would you ever need online to make 2 good pawns unless Capcom programmed it that way to be a gimmick? To save yourself the 2 minutes of customizing? To get boosted with strong pawns?I play without pawns :^)

>>324248291
It's complete preference. Despite everything, every class breaks the game once you hit 200. It just becomes a matter of what you enjoy playing and how hard you want to break it.
MK is a fairly popular choice right under MA and Assassin because you don't have to aim for jack shit and at worst, just have to time your blocks. Does much-higher-than-average damage, but won't blow bosses out of the water . Better at mid-tier minibosses or swarms.
>>324248219
You are literally fucking cancer. Do you have any idea how EXP and levelling works?
If they're too hard for you, GO AWAY, DO OTHER STUFF, THEN GO BACK WHEN YOU'RE STRONGER.
THE ONLY POSSIBLE FUCKING WAY THOSE BANDITS COULD GIVE YOU TROUBLE IS IF YOU HAVEN'T BEEN TO THE CAPITAL FIRST BECAUSE YOU'RE A FUCKING RETARD AND HAVEN'T BOTHERED TO BUY BETTER GEAR OR GET BETTER PAWNS.
Can we make alts and hire our own pawns?
>>324246894
The online portion of the game?
>>324248465
I gave mine silver. I hope I can see if she ever gets hired. Gotta fix her inclinations though, she's starting to become a royal bitch.
>>324248219
Also, even when I played the game as a fucking mage with zero defense I was never oneshot. Only happens on hard mode, which is a bonus DLC mode in the first place which is why you can't start it without a special option in the main menu.
Stop lying or being retarded andgit gud

Well there's your fucking problem. Go to the capital, get better armour.
I didn't go there until I was level 13 and I didn't exactly have to grind, I just followed the story. The moment I got to the Capital, I bought some shit and left again to go do it and I did just fucking fine.

Confirmed for having pirated the game for the first time ever 2 days ago. I feel so so sorry for you. What's your Steam ID? Nobody should be forced to play this good game like a retard. I'll give you my extra G2A key
>>324248350
DD is a weird reversal of the usual formula. Magic classes start pretty good and become mediocre by end-game. Ranged start garbage and become great end-game. Melee is either trash the entire game through, or the single best build in the game.
Also, Assassin only really shines when you kill off your pawns and play entirely solo, so if that's not your cup of tea you're better off just switching to Ranger at level 60ish.
>>324248625
Gear I can agree with, even upgrading your stuff a bit from Reynard works wonders. But going to Gran Soren 1st is not advised unless you don't care about Quina/Selene quest.
>>324248625
Thats not the problem, anon. The problem is that this fucking longsword wooden shield is the exact same guy we met 5 times already and had never any trouble with him. And now this faggot have a higher hidden level and one kills us without any warning. Thats shit design.
>>324248745
Playing strider. It oneshots everyone of my pawns too. Why would I lie? Also I accidentally overshot it and the quest is locked from me forever. But thats on me, as I looked at the wiki wrong.
>>324248814
No, thats not my fucking problem. My fucking problem is hidden level making the same exact enemy harder than the one before him.
>>324244304
>+50 defense
it actually acts as a damage threshold, it reduces dmg by 112 in normal and 225 in hard
>>324248814
>Go to the capital, get better armour.
Doesn't that meanthat Quina dies because you didn't save her in the Witchwood before going to Gran Soren?
Main arisen is a sorcerer, seems to be stuck at rank 5 with 15.5k discipline points, when the fuck will I ever get to rank 6 so I can get some spells that do damage?

>>324248909
No.
I see I started with a lot of expensive equipment like the monocle etc, should I just sell it?
>>324248847
>>324248909
You can go back after getting there as long as you don't do more main quests. Just don't finish the quest where you have to go down into the Everfall.
>>324248914
Patience, rank 5 to 6 requires way more DCP.
>>324246631
nvm. Just beat the dragon. What vocations should I go for next? Already played some Warrior and Ranger and Sorcerer. How's magick archer?
>>324248973
I've no idea if 312k is a lot in the long run, but I trashed all these things just in case.
I remember how Morrowind's expansion ruined the economy by giving me expensive items early on in the base game.
>>324248997
Second most popular vocation because it doesn't require aim and melts faces when built correctly.
>>324248847
I didn't even know this. Fuck. Good thing I didn't complete any more main quests then.
>>324249061
>>324248973
300k Is a LOT of money if you're playing on Normal-Mode. Some of the most expensive items/novelty armors in the game only cost 200-300k. Guy in Gran Soren sells an arrow that 1-hit kills anything for 300k.
If you're playing on Hardmode, just sell it, who gives a fuck. You'll have 300k before you ever even get to Gran Soren anyways, money means nothing in that mode.
>>324248984
Good to know, I always did the Pawn Guild quest whenever I reached Gran Soren.
This whole conversation is pretty meaningless though because if the shitter got a tiny bit proficient he could kill all the bandits with a little patience and some greenwarish in hand. That's what I did.
>>324248984
>You can go back after getting there as long as you don't do more main quests.
Well fuck, I just took my time and got through all of that shit at like level 5 because I thought she'd get fucked over if I went to Gran Soren first.
Those fucking ghosts in the forest would have been so much easier if I could have changed my vocation from Strider to Magic Archer first
>>324249061
I'll do the same then and hope we made the right choice.
>>324245465
>all those pawns mimicing the jump slash on the disc on its ass
I don't know why, but I laughed pretty hard at that.
>>324248853
I feel like the problem isn't one shotting so much as the staggering system. You should be able to overcome your enemies, but when they just tank through every one of your hits until you stack up about 30 of them, it is pretty ridiculous. The game really suffers from range laming being so good and stat-checking. You COULD run around an enemy forever getting a few non-stagger hits for several minutes, but who would want to do that on a bandit? (And it is really not fun when there is a group of 6 of them). AI laming is also really strong, enemies run around like chickens without their heads if you take a few steps back, it is like the aggro leashing is fucked. I do it on accident all the time just by using my bow. Some of the attacks also seem really wimpy and forceless like you are playing Titan's Quest. Like "Oh, that was an attack, huh?" I also physically could not kill chimeras due to the lion head taking 0 damage until I got an enchanted weapon (I could have waited to break the armor I guess via grinding but either way it is silly since they are so commonly found in easy areas). I still have fun, but goddamn guys. Also fuck the menus.
>>324249245
Apart from having more money for healing items I don't think it matters too much. You don't get to buy the best gear from the get go, gotta progress through the game a bit for better gear to start appearing in shops.You'll have a slight advantage in that regard when you clear the mines and the merchant opens up shop inside them. He has some good stuff if I remember correct.He also sold berserk stuff ;_;

Fuck, it didnt matter. I was walking around gathering loot when I accidentaly hit a dude inside the castle with my greathammer, and I was sent to prison, when I got back to the castle, the fair lady is nowhere to be seen,
Is there anyway to get up from being knocked down faster?

I tried this and it didn't work when knocked down, iuno why. It worked everywhere else. I eventually just replaced the skill.

Is that a coreskill or an augment or something else?
will having sorc and ranger augments help me a great deal as a MA?
I can;t really be assed lvling their vocations up because I fucking hate the sorc
it's easier to level vocations after a certain part of the story. using two rings of perseverance while wearing the asura armor will get you to max vocation in a few minutes.
