So I was reading some of the lore behind the Brine in Dragon's

Boil the water first, basic treatment anon

>>388792751
sounds like a substitute invisible wall used to stop players from going to places they shouldnt go

With a bucket like people used to wash themselves?

>>388792751
just fucking kill stuff and shut up

>deeper than kneecap

Wrong. It's above waist height. It's an invisible wall because there is no swimming mechanic in the game. Other than that, there are sources of water all over the area you can walk in just fine. Most rivers you can walk in. Caves with running water. The aqueducts in Gran Soren don't have brine. You can walk in those fine. You haven't played the game much have you?

>or even bathe for that matter?
I take baths with my pawns all the time, anon.

>>388792751
If you sacrifice enough lolis to the Brine it leaves you alone long enough to have a bath.

>>388792751
The brine was a fucking retarded mechanic/explanation for a limitation. If they had something like "Arisen and Pawns cannot swim, because reaasons" I would have accepted it more.

We see Cassardis is a fishing village with a goddam beach, how they fuck can you fish if falling in the water means certain death? People would stay the fuck away from water if that were the case.

>yes the brine had me slightly upset
>Salty, if you would

>>388793614
This also throwing her over my shoulder and running off like a madman with her pawing away at me helplessly.

>>388793812
I thought they only fed on Rooks though.

>>388793438
>The aqueducts in Gran Soren don't have brine.
How do you know that, if brine only attacks if the water is above waist height?

What's your favorite skill to use /v/?
I like arc of deliverance charging it up and hitting somethings weak spot and taking out half a health bar is fun.

Did you guys hear about the new changes in the PS4 version?

>>388794776

High Bolide. The dodge strike combo attacks on Fighter/Assassin. The one that cancels animations on Strider/Assassin ( dagger skill )

>>388794776
Grand Scension and Shadow Shackle
Magik Archer just had so many cool skills that set itself apart.
The power shot one (ranger skill forgot the proper name) was fucking cool too, super satisfying when you pull off a hard shot or stagger something at a critical moment with it.

>>388794914
What changes isn't just a port of the pc version.

>>388795047
How long does it take to get good skills for magic archer? I got halfway and just wasn't doing good damage.

>>388795170

>reading into the lore

Should've gone deeper; the Brine, like many of the monsters in the game, are not typically so pervasive/common nor aggressive. Shit changes when the Dragon descends, and like the Dragon itself it's all part of the push to cultivate an appropriate Arisen; all the other lives that get fucked up by this process are unfortunate but also largely irrelevant, considering the Seneschal's endgame.

>>388795994

>>388797590
They should have just tied your stats to your equipped class honestly. Its fucking retarded how it works and serves no purpose other than to force you to spend a bunch of time grinding as a class you probably hate in order to min/max.

>>388797895
They don't make much sense either. Assassin gets more strength than that Warrior, Warrior gets more health than Mystic Knight, etc. I don't know how I would do it personally, but why not just let the player assign stats at level up, and assigning those stats as a certain vocation gives a bonus or something?

>>388798003
>tfw you are such a stingy cunt that you skimp out on buying healing wares and spent nearly an hour taking back bottles of free spring water.
The only fun part about it was throwing my pawn into the water when stopped filling bottles.

>>388797492
The person who rented my pawn gave her 5 stars for appearance and 1 star for everything else. I don't know much about min maxing or how to setup a pawn so I just went down the list for vocations focusing on combat with her. Just recently put her on mage since shes got warrior, fighter, and strider already complete.

Do you think Master Werxal could defeat the Brine?

>>388798654
I mean, that's not true at all.

You're effective in this game regardless of your stats if you use properly leveled / dragonforged gear. In addition, I disagree with going full magic on MK for min max anyway; cannons are fucking boring.

>>388798751
161 at the time.

>>388798654
>The gameplay is great but who the fuck thought playing as a sorcerer the first 100 Levels to be an effective MK was a good idea?
Someone incredibly misinformed, the only stat slightly worth minmaxing for in DD is stamina, everything else is covered by your gear.

You cast it. Then you cast it again 3 more times.

Doesn't Magic effect the weapon buffs too? You're missing on 100+ Damage if you don't play a mage first.

It's a nonsensical contrivance that keeps you from jumping into water/so they didn't have to implement swimming.

Don't think about it too hard.

It literally IS what they came up with. It's sourced from in-game NPC dialogue.

>>388797895
>tie stats to equipped vocation

Reminds me of Phantasy Star Portable 2; base stats determined by character level+race+sex and different modifiers to those base stats depending on what class you're currently in. The advantage of this comes from the logic and simplicity, but the advantage of DragDog's system is you can have that same simplicity (each vocation basically earns relevant stats for itself) or you can customize to a wild degree; a pure Warrior will have more HP/Attack/Def than my hybrid Warrior/Ranger build but I'll be able to sprint and use skills for more than 5 seconds without geting winded due to lol stamina growths and survive a nonzero quantity of magic hits thanks to a bit of magic defense. Mystic Knights, a hybrid attack/magic class, can function on their own growths but appropriately benefit from hybridization for custom stats.

>>388798234
Assassin focuses on straight damage and stamina at the expense of durability (don't need to tank if you can kill or run away first, glass cannon).
Warrior gets more HP because no almost-cheating shield and not hybridizing with magic and dependence on charge attacks; the expectation is that rather than reflecting everything while wearing down the enemy you'll eat a hit or two to end the fight immediately after.

Come back to it later and get Vocation levels (not base levels though, watch your xp and switch before a base level up) so you can pick up the +10% magic damage augment. Sorceror gets the more important +20% one but they do stack so it's worth it eventually.

It's called Dragon's Maw anon, it gives hyperarmor, i-frames and has enough knockdown power to shit on Eliminators.

well, then someone somehow made a really op pawn
really really op

>red vocations are the ones that need to climb enemies the most due to lack of ranged attacks
>don't give them any skills that can be used while climbing
What could they mean by this?

>>388817847
red vocations are supposed to knock them down

heh, are you even trying?

>>388818183
Assasin is not a red vocation, pal. It's a hybrid.

>let's have great-hammer users in heavy plate armor climb on enemies

How the fuck do you even attack with a great-hammer if you need at least one hand to hold on to the enemy? Every single Longsword class weapon in the game requires two-handing.

It would look stupid as fuck.

How long does it take pawn returns to show up?

I was trying to transfer an item from my alt account and its been like 30 minutes and still nothing happens when I rest at an inn

>>388818523
Make it a charge skill like savage lash
After charging you stab the sword into the enemy and hold on to it
Basically like dire gouge but "hold button for big damage" instead of "spam button for loadsa hits"

>>388794776
Leaping Stone + Skullsplitter
Strider > Assassin

Antler Toss is a good runner up

>>388818675
Pretty quick from what I remember, like in 5ish min when I was trading with a friend before. Dunno why yours is taking so long maybe have both accounts rest in an inn after the pawn is released?

>>388818736
That sounds neat as hell.

If I already killed the Ur-Dragon when it reached its grace period, i.e. nearly no health, can I wait out until the next generation, so he'll respawn and fight him again?

I really hate that.

That and how the Duke just doesn't acknowledge you were going to fuck his wife.

I like the Grisly set.

Where do you find that shit, is it Everfall exclusive? I only ever found the helm

>>388822058

Got the helm to drop in Bitterback, from a monster.

>>388822058
>>388822265

Oh and yeah, it's pretty much mostly found in Everfall, post-game. There's some small chance of it dropping in Bitterback or being found in chests, but good fucking luck with that.
