you do, enemies drop them.

and there isn't much to do with them until BBI and they are dropped much more frequently then

it is interesting that it detected the edit. i am surprised they bothered.

And that's basically nothing and it probably took you hours to gather up even that much?

I think I made the right choice even if it did fuck me out of ever having my pawn used.

what are you using your RC's on, anyways? cosmetic items? functionally, the only useful things are the inclination elixirs and the quest equips if you somehow lose them.

only other big purchase i can think of is unlimited character edit once you beat the game

Guys, I want to be a decent archer class, ive been playing strider for 30 levels and I feel like I can do better? Any tips on which vocations I should play to increase my stats etc?

>>324364775
I hear assassin is bretty good.

>>324364803
I heard assassin got nerfed in Dark Arisen tho

>>324364518
>it is interesting that it detected the edit.
Well that's still unsure.

There is no way to confirm my pawn has been labeled as corrupt, I just saw another pawn in the rift that I tried to summon who was labeled corrupt and I suspect it may have happened to my own because of my rift crystal editing, but it may not and it my just be no one rented my pawn just like normal anyway. I did play like 20 hours and never had a person rent my pawn before I did any editing.

I mean it may only detect people who directly edit their pawn's or their own stats.

>>324364901
lol Assassin got introduced in Dark Arisen, it didn't exist in the base game

>>324364901
That's pretty bad because I've been playing assasin for 30 levels straight.

My only choices are swordsmen, though, because I can't live without lunge skill.

>>324364227
Most likely people are using your pawn it's just the feature is busted at the moment.

>>324364916
>I did play like 20 hours and never had a person rent my pawn before I did any editing.
It's a known bug that's happening to literally everyone without any exceptions right now. Your pawn gets rented but you don't get any benefits.

>>324364227
And want to know the best part? Pawn hiring rewards are broken right now. Chances are your pawn was rented, but you just didn't get anything.

>>324364775
If you want to focus on being an archer a Ranger will offer you better bow skills, but you'll lose a lot of mobility in the process, so I don't really recommend, Strider is a better class overall, especially against bosses.

>>324364947
But that's wrong.

>>324365036
>>324365014
OHHhhh, I was used to consoles where it worked.

So I was wondering why it wasn't working.

>>324364621
You can easily avoid the enemies there and just grab the chests.

It requires a little bit of luck, but you should at least end up with a few thousand just by sticking to the easy/early areas.

coupled with the fact that i only have like 40~ hours when i'm sure i have at least 50-60

If I'm an Assassin can I effective train my Strider pawn or must I be in the same vocation (Strider/Strider or Ranger/Ranger) to train my pawn properly?

Not him but I played offline back on consoles and by the time rift crystals were actually relevant I had more than I even knew what to do with.

You didn't make the right choice at all, RC is easy as fuck to get. Random trash mobs just end up dropping 100 at a time for no reason.

>>324365764
You should be fine, people say it should be the same vocations but it's more like an issue of a pawn learning with you, like if you use ranged skills too much your pawn will start using them more often too.

>>324365764

pawns behaviors are guided by bestiary knowledge and inclination. the former is gained by battling enemies and trying different tactics, the latter can be controlled by elixirs purchased in the encampment.

Create your pawn to fit your needs, want a pack-mule make your character big and tall, want a character who can climb enemies faster make them small, want a balanced pawn who can do a bit of both give even proportions

You can train them beyond inclinations/knowledge/just giving them skills. But as far as I know it's limited to same job because it seems to go off of ability use. I swapped to Fighter to get some augments & early HP/Def & spent my whole time spamming the low level thrust attacking archers. Now my Fighter pawn zooms around the field thrusting archers.

>>324366459
Max affinity is indicated by a blush and pink aura, and the last person you talked to with max affinity is your lover. Is this correct? Wouldn't just grabbing and throwing everyone but your mark make it easy to romance whoever you choose?

I wanted to go for Mercedes before I played the game, but she is much more attractive with her mouth shut.

>>324366564
On that note, what a fucking laugh
Selene was the first to go full Affinity, and right after Witch Hunt so it was pretty beautiful.

Then I end up questing to stop a retard fishboy from my village from killing himself, and this maxes the affinity. Like hell I want anything to do with this mouthbreather so I threw him off a short cliff to lose points.

So, i missed that Reynard guy, it seems he was being attacked by goblins at the beginning of the game and the camera even zoom in on him when you get close enough, but, i started that Seabreeze Trail from the beach because i wanted to explore and swear to god that there was no one screaming for help and no goblins attacking someone, there was only goblins chiling out waiting for me to kill them.

So, i just lost this merchant now? I've come back 2 times to that trail nothing, no guy, no goblins attacking.

Fuck this game come on.

Also, that Mercedes escort was fucking nice, i had to fight a heavy armored cyclops and in the middle of the fight a drake appears out of nowhere and incinerate the cyclops. She almost died to the cyclops though.

Oh, and i fucking love strider/ranger/assassin, that dodge ability, that double jump, that rush/dash attack , those bow abilities, jesus, is fucking amazing.

>>324367572
Armor is not that important, you should dress for fashion. Or for showing them tiddies, same thing.

I kinda' wish "hard mode" did something a little more interesting.

Making spongey enemies even spongey'er and making you a one-hit-kill isn't really how one makes a game harder.

I was hoping for new mechanics, or new enemy combinations, or perhaps quicker animations on big monster attacks or something.

Lost and Found - find Quina and meet the witch of Witchwood.

Can do it after you deliver hydra head to capital. Can't do after you deliver hydra head to capital and visit pawn guild.

Bandits on the route to Witchwood might be too strong for you but you can just run past them into woods. You'll probably need magic to kill ghosts in the wood.

>>324367948
There's a weapon shop right near the entrance

Couple of questions. This first one is probably fucking stupid, but please indulge me.

1. Is it possible to hire pawns between console/PC?

2. Mage or strider/ranger for my pawn? I've played through the game about 5 times on ps3 and now I don't know what to do with PC. I tend to roll mage because I don't trust other people to give them good inclinations. Utilitarian/challenger best.

>>324367934
It you're only a few hours in, yeah. Not worth it otherwise, just do it on NG+.

>>324365852
>like if you use ranged skills too much your pawn will start using them more often too
For melee i can see, like you don't want your mage/rangers to go melee like a madman, but if your pawn is fighter/warrior and you play range what will happen to them? Being retarded and don't engage enemies as often?

So I've been collecting pelts and ores and shit because supposedly it's to craft armor but how the fuck do I craft armor with the shit?

>>324367948

Yes, I'm not saying he's original or very unique, I'm just saying he's still better than typical loli or riftslut.

>>324367960
It's a random encounter. I'm like 40 hours in and it never happened to me.

>>324368007
It's for upgrading armor, silly, not crafting it.

I'm having trouble surviving and killing things as a mystic knight. Someone in a previous thread said I should stick to fighter and that'll give me an easier time. Is this true? What armor should I be wearing as a fighter? Should I upgrade to warrior at some point? Also general tips would be appreciated. So far I've gotten tips like

>explore, explore, EXPLORE.
>don't go out at night

Any other tips would be greatly appreciated.

>>324368067
And I'm saying he's not, because at least people have a reason to hire those.

I think it's not. Right after the game was released, only lower level pawns were available, higher level ones had no player owners.

Vocation levels can be farmed by killing basic enemies, right? I need to go back to Fighter to get the +10% strength augment.

How the fuck do I load my game what the fuck is wring with this game. I don't want to load from last checkpoint, I want to load where I saved what the fucking stupid fucking maps can't design a game for shit

>>324368378
You know I've had no issue with escort quests, probably because being an archer means I can stay far away from the Fray and so my escort is safe with me.

Also I take back all the bad things I said about the magic explosive arrows, that skill is fucking amazing. Bandits make themselves explode with them and the big monsters get utterly wrecked by the explosions.

Striders are known for being the best all around pawns
Mages/sorcerers can be great if they're done right eg dont give them 8 randoms spells they don't need
Fighters can tank and take aggro and are great when done right

Warriors are too timing oriented and pawns just don't do it right

By switching your vocation to Fighter solely to train the pawn.

which is hilarious because nothing back there is all that great and he could like NG+ for it

So did they fix the pawn system yet so you get paid for having your pawns rented?

also seconding this regarding BBI. I'm going to assume 100+ but not sure. It's the only thing i haven't tried from ps3.

>Why is that a factor? They just fucking teleport to your location if you get too far ahead.

Most of the time they don't

and Quina doesn't teleport with you at all.

>BBI
25+,50+ and then I'd say 70+

It has 3 stages, upper, central, and lower. The lower you go, the harder it gets

>Everfall

40+, maybe 60+ for some of the harder rooms (chimera, gore chimera, hellhounds and wight comes to mind...)

I played BBI while around 80-100 on PS3 and I remember struggling a bit, but I did manage to make my way to damon

I just got level 9 warrior to get the augments, and am now doing fighter 'til 9 for the same reason

I'm doing this to get the optimal Mystic Knight

Am I minmaxing correctly?
