Sorcerers don't heal, they are an offensive spell casters, they want high Magick for more damage, and that class just so happens to have the highest Magick stat growth so keep him as a Sorcerers for most of his existence.
Sorcerers also have Lassitude which is the best debuff spell in the game, since it inflicts torpor.

Well it's slated to be an hour before normal Steam rollover, but unlocks are done whenever someone at Valve hits the switch so it could be +/- 1hr

I wouldn't try to upload a pawn with illegal armor, but who knows, maybe it'll take it.

I'm not gonna gently caress with pawns at all. I don't want to ruin someone's experience or by virtue of sharing pawns, ruin someone elses. I still remember the sting of getting softbanned by FromSoftware for picking up a duped item and having to wait until the Scholar of the First Sin to play it with full online capabilities.

I don't remember much about the plot but I know it got really loving good towards the end. My pawn was always perfectly behaved I don't think I had to sit her down for a good chat once! I booted up my PS3 to remind me what she looked like so I can have my old pal back tomorrow.

I remember I missed the chance to romance a female character but I can't remember who or how.

Found this which gives a good indication on what options to choose for pawn questions to get your inclinations setup. That along with the pawn guide from earlier should mean the goonpawns will be the best around.

Does anyone have advice on making a good Mage/Sorcerer pawn? Feel free to tell me minmax strats.

The idea is to be a buffer/healer that then proceeds to burn things a lot when buffing/healing is not needed.

Utilitarian inclination if you like timely buffs (needs pawn enemy knowledge though). For base game you'll want holy and fire buffs, for BBI fire + ice + thunder.

Comestion (throws enemies up), levin and the ice spike from the ground are good damage options. In the base game you can pretty much get away with just fire and thunder, BBI needs a more even spread of elements.

This is a really lovely rumor and it needs to die. Games unlock whenever the developers or publisher (whomever controls the steam dev account) want them to! It has nothing to do with Valve anymore, and it hasn't for at least 5 years.

So, I made a thing real quick for calculating pawn characteristics based on the starting questions.

Just save a copy and pick your answers from the dropdowns to fill in what the inclinations should end up as. (Highest numbers win)

As long as the data I found was accurate, and they didn't change the numbers, it should work fine.

What could possibly go wrong?
For my pawn tank, I'm aiming for Scather/Utilitarian. Based on that spreadsheet, I can either:

1. Go for 9 Scather, 9 Utilitarian (Charisma, Kill all foes, After them!, White Horse)
2. Go for 9 Scather, 7 Utilitarian (Charisma, Kill all foes, Now strike!, White Horse)

I'd assume #2 would be the better option to make sure Scather stays primary?

The initial questions don't matter too much. Something lovely like Nexus is going to overcome your choices eventually anyways, especially since the quiz still leaves those undesirable inclinations fairly high. Just start using inclination eilixirs once they're for sale, relatively early in the game.

If you have a pawn that knows the same spell they'll shorten the casting time by mirroring the spell.

I think it's just for offensive spells or specific spells? I was playing a bit on my ps3 and when I would cast Anoydine (or whatever the healing spell is called) while a pawn was casting it close by it did nothing to the cast time for me or the pawn

It's for the big offensive Sorcerer spells like Bolide and Maelstrom. You know, the ones that take like 30 seconds to cast.

I'm also pretty sure it doesn't shorten the cast time, rather it just puts the second caster at the point the first caster is at in the cast. So if Pawn A starts casting High Bolide then 5 seconds later Pawn B starts casting High Bolide, he would start his cast synced with Pawn A, I.E; 5 seconds into the casting time of High Bolide.
