If you've not beaten the Daimon once, he will only appear at The Arisen's Refuge and Warrior's Respite. After you beat Daimon, he appears near Olra, but he always randomly appears at the shortcuts as well.

Lunethex posted:The one at the tower though, is a Dire Wyvern, and it takes weeks to respawn compared to the others. After you beat the Bitterblack boss once, then you'll encounter a lot more dragons, and going to Duskmoon Tower and the Fallen City are your best ways of fighting Wyverns, specifically, they're all Dire Wyverns. You can get normal Wyverns in the Fallen City. There's two enemy spawns you may encounter there, the more common one is a single Dire Wyvern, three Eliminators guarding the sanctum and three Living Armors posted in the streets. The rare one has two vanilla Wyverns, three Living Armors guarding the sanctum, and eight Eliminators in the streets. I've also had a normal Wyvern appear in the Rotunda of Dread too. Also the Bluemoon Tower Wyvern will only be a Dire one if you accept the notice board quest in BBI. Once you finish that it will revert to the normal Wyvern spawn there although that one is still unique because it speaks English. Dr. Abysmal fucked around with this message at 04:52 on May 7, 2013 |

Looking for speedruns, I just realized that speedrun mode doesn't start you from level 1. Are there any cool runs from (Japanese) people doing the whole game from a cold start?

Concentrate on killing the dragon, it doesn't have many HP. Killing it can stun the priest (I think the priest can possess him and that's your chance?), causing him to fall to the ground and become vulnerable. At that point, you should be able to demolish the priest very quickly.

So I've been getting ready to go Arisen & Pawn as sorcerers but I've been struck by doubt again, I have the Grand Spells but the pawn doesn't seem to come over and start Mirror Casting with me, we have the same skills for it but maybe it's because I haven't really set up inclination yet. Anyone else here rolling as a Sorcerer with a pawn sorcerer as support? I haven't actually made it to Sorcerer yet but I wouldn't think it matters?

RatHat posted:This isn't possible. It's probably someone who left the game world so you can't tell if they're gone or not. If you mean you didnt get the ring dropping from the sky cutscene, that just means your beloved wasn't the person you gave the ring to. what ring? In my 3 play throughs I never got a ring to give to anyone. In my most recent game which I killed the dragon earlier today my lover was Julien, who I killed and brought back to life.

Danith posted:what ring? In my 3 play throughs I never got a ring to give to anyone. The Arisen's Bond is the ring he refers to, you can get it two ways. One, by going to the hidden area in Witchwood, which actually requires helping Quina at the beginning of the game and getting a tablet and bringing to the Dragonforged. Or, you can do Aelinore's questline and she will give you an item called "love in the rough" for saving her from the Duke's Manse, which you can combine with another item to make the ring.

Shouts out to Rascyc for giving my pawn a rent, I can only assume she got horribly splattered due to the all 3 star rating Bitterblack is ridiculously harder as a Warrior than a Magick Archer, Eliminators are terrifying now and Garm are horrible murderbeasts. It's still satisfying as hell landing Arc of Might on things though.

Killing it can stun the priest (I think the priest can possess him and that's your chance?), causing him to fall to the ground and become vulnerable. At that point, you should be able to demolish the priest very quickly. After you kill the cursed dragon the first time, The skelepope will possess it to raise it again, and while he's possessing it it will cast a bunch of bullshit spells like High Bolide. Once you kill it again, he'll be knocked down like a normal wight, which removes almost all of his physical defense. Ignore downed pawns if you'd have to go out of your way to get them, and smash the skelepope. Not sure if he can raise the dragon to life without possessing it again, after that.

If you have any of the books (or are they gems?) that summon spirits like the Sorcerer Necromancy spell they will tear him up. I usually just dump that sort of thing in the bank but I had one and decided to try it out and it burned like 3-4 HP bars. Based on that I'm guessing he is weak to dark magic.

Nahxela posted:Are you killing yourself? I'm pretty sure you need to kill yourself. Saving and quitting is not enough. What, no. It rolls the item on opening a chest, as long as you get back to the point before you opened the chest it will give you a different roll. A lot of them are weighted, like having a 70% chance to give this piece of crap, and then 10% for the three rarer items it can give, and it's most likely that Tesco's just had an unlucky streak. Also, laughter, he was trying to get the Scalding Razors, when the chest in the mine that gives them has given me something that was not the Scalding Razors twice in about 2 dozen openings of the thing.

Yeah there's an option under the Save/Quit menu that is just "quit with saving" and you can use that to reset chests, I did it forever to get a bow in Soulflayer canyon and then I accidentally deleted my data trying to show a friend how to restart DA without losing all the bonuses

Scott Bakula posted:I'm going to change her mage skills to be more suited to Bitterblack Isle once I start playing there. What skills are recommended for a support mage? Holy boon, anodyne, and the status removal spell are the big standard skill set for BBI mages. Thunder boon is good against a lot of enemies that are less effected by Holy, and Dark boon has a couple niche uses. Ice and fire weaknesses seem to overlap too much with holy.

As a mystic knight, I specifically brought an inherent lightning weapon to this area of Bitterblack to deal with that ogre that is vulnerable to lightning and what does my mage pawn do? Continually enchant it with holy, which the ogre appears to be 100% immune to. Good show, pawn. Clap clap clap.

I'll take any cursed stuff you feel like throwing at me. I believe I won't be starting over again anytime soon, and if I remember correctly cursed stuff can give me that sweet wizard hat. Edit: Strange thing I just noticed about levitate: If you sprint and jump then let go of the control stick before you start levitating you keep your sprinting momentum and can go 5-10 ft farther with one jump than sprinting/jump/hold forward. It makes pretty much every jump in bitterblack isle piss easy if you can get a running start. Tyskil fucked around with this message at 09:39 on May 7, 2013 |

Ugh, my character is at level 33 and I only realised last night that I'd been playing the thing offline the whole time. I had to update my PS3 when I first launched the game and I guess it defaulted to offline. I was reading the thread and becoming more and more confused by the concept of giving gifts/messages/ratings for pawns. Managed to switch it on last night and was astonished by the amount of anime princess mages in pretty robes I could hire.

Woot, now level 200, updated it on the thing in accordance to the rest of the 200s(ie; pink.) Thanks for all the rentals so far, too. Hopefully the big guy has been working out well. I've been trying to rent as many goons as possible. drat 4 party limits. My goal was to try to max out level before I leave for the US vacation tomorrow morning. So I'll be deprived of DA for awhile. I plan on feeding him the mass elixirs before I go to make sure his inclinations stay put for awhile at least and dole out a few more gifts when I can. Still no luck on a Devil's Bane or the Hellfire Gloves, though I'm going to start gifting cursed items these days more now that I have almost everything else I need. Will probably get a couple more runs in today but it's packing day.
