RBA Starblade posted:What's the fast way? I assume its the side paths that lead to a river/cyclops but from what I can tell that's either one way or instant death. Take the side path that overlooks the Cyclops's spot, but follow the mountain path instead of jumping down to him. You can bypass the harpies, the boulder, and the winding path to the gate. You'll end up right after the gate and a minute or so (if you kill the goblins) from Gran Soren's fields. If you run into bandits on the path, you're going the right way.

Krackleburt posted:*sigh* The rift is a frustrating place sometimes... My pawn and I both roll with physical classes, so I'm usually in there looking for Mages/Sorcerers. And it's always the same process: First I have to dismiss about fifty half-naked, 13 year old girls before I can find a normal looking pawn. Then I have to sift through those to find ones with the abilities I actually want. Then the time comes when I find the perfect pawn, with an awesome spell combination, only to scroll over and see they're a Guardian. Then I have to start all over again.

Don't worry, there's another story quest later on that sends you there even if you killed the griffin too quickly. e: Whoops, missed the new page.

Sylphosaurus posted:So what is a good inclination combo for mages/sorcerers? I've been rolling with a challenger/scather from the beginning since I prefer for my pawn to flashfry mages and archers before going for the bigger targets. For support mages, I think the best one is utilitarian/medicant and for Sorcerer it is challenger/scather

The Mimic posted:Speaking of that canyon, has anyone else tried to ride harpies up to the top? There's a surprising number of places to walk around up there, and I can't help but wonder if you could get by much faster by riding up somewhere and running. Only thing is, I'm not sure how to get back down afterward. Game needs a parachute.

TescoBag posted:For support mages, I think the best one is utilitarian/medicant and for Sorcerer it is challenger/scather That's actually kinda redundant, it just changes the priority that they buff/heal. Utilitarians will buff first, then heal, while Mendicants will heal and then buff. When I still was rolling with a support mage as my main pawn I used Utilitarian/Scather. Right now my Fighter pawn is Mitigator/Nexus. In the end, though, anything besides Guardian is good. gently caress Guardian. Also is there a chest piece that goes along with the Assailant's Bracers/Striker's Greaves?

I want to try utilitarian as many warrior pawn's secondary inclination, but I can't seem to keep it that way, it always changes to scather really quickly. Her primary is pretty stable at challenger though.

I did a mistake pressing "I'll escort you" instead of "not now" to take the gardener to testify against Fournival, so I had to get rid of him... I throw him into the sea. Some moments later, while I was planning the fastest route to the women bandits camp he shows up with little health and asks me: "Did you just try to get rid of me?". I grab him and throw him again off the cliffs.

a kitten posted:I'm tired of a certain canyon that's on the route from the starting town to the main city, but overall I'm not even remotely tired of the game yet. Beat it once, played about halfway through on NG+, re-started completely and am now approaching the halfway point again. So, for me at least, while I'm not as actively in love with it like I was with Dark Souls; it comes really close to having its hooks in me in much the same way. That's all good news. I heard the combat system is really fun, which is a huge thing to me, considering most of this type of game sees me running around trying to kill anything that looks at me funny.

The assassin's parry move seems remarkably worthless. It doesn't seem to do anything when the attack connects; I take damage anyway on the rare times they actually hit me from the front, and half the time the attack's a fakeout. e: Just got it, that's pretty precise timing needed.

The one where you jump on their back and slit their throat is pretty effective though. Doesn't really take much timing either. Just hit it, then if an enemy takes a swing at you, BAM.

I am so lost when it comes to gear in this game. I just keep the same stuff on all the time. I find new stuff, try to buy new stuff, no real quality changes. It needs way more loot. I'm level 35 assassin and I have no idea what I should be using.

Jefferoo posted:Should I max out archer before taking on Assassin class? I have the fighter maxed out and wanna use a sword and bow combo. What level are you? Using a bow with an Assassin is really secondary, you'll be doing a lot more melee with either your sword or daggers. When you level up with the assassin you get a ton of Strength so your attacks will be stronger.

So my pawn showed her true badass colors last night. Was at the Blue Moon tower hunting down that drat ring when we started fighting the mage boss. He started to talk poo poo and as soon as he finished he first sentence Mercedes killed him with one great gamble. I could have swore she said "Shut the gently caress up, putz" but I may have just imagined it. Oh, how do you use the wyrmking ring for yourself?
