Did they fix the mage 1/2 damage while casting augment in this version or is it still busted?

So I'm trying to decide between Ranger/Assassin routes, and while I really want to like the bow it's been really lackluster for me so far(as a Strider) compared to the daggers. What's are some good Strider bow skills to use? The only one I have so far that does any damage is the rain of arrows one.

I'm having fun with Full Charge, especially when the mage sets my bow on fire and I slam an arrow through a harpy's face.

Any tips on the best way to earn gold fast, outside of doing quests from the board? I have about 400k right now but I want to get more to buy more armor from the counterfeit guy. Also, any other places to buy weapons outside of the starting town, and the capital city?

It depends on what you mean by min-maxing. I'd recommend, like, knowing what kind of dude you ultimately want to make and possibly getting one or two rings of perseverance early if you want to be unusually strong fast. Essentially though, min-maxing is pretty subjective and if you get too deep into it, you might do some unfun bullshit like not playing the class you really want to be for like 200 levels, which would be like several play throughs of doing stuff you don't want to. So basically figure out what you want to be, work towards that, and occasionally take a break and play another class that has augments or stats you need.

Yeah the ogre on the way to the female bandit fort did this. It just randomly jumped off the cliff and died. Made getting passed the bandits there a lot easier.

Also the grab escape QTE:s take every control input, if you're on a controller just mash all the buttons and waggle all the sticks and if you're on mouse & keyboard remember to use your mouse buttons too.

Rook is just to show you what pawns are like, don't worry he is meant to be disposed of the second you can.

If we want to get all lore-heavy, pawns can't actually die, because they aren't really alive, they just return to the rift.

Technically it means you couldn't rate them and send them off with an item if they die in the field, but that is broken right now so :smith:

Megafunk posted:

There are no consequences if you let a pawn die in general, and in fact the easiest way to be rid of one is to just chuck them off a cliff into water or something, which automatically returns them to the rift and gives their creator the reward for you using them without you having to go there and dismiss them.

edit: Or at least, it WOULD give them the usage reward if those were working right now.

Does anyone have a link to something about this (or an explanation for what's bugged and when it might be fixed)? My pawn is a dude, so nobody's touching him, which sucks because he's the best pawn I've ever made. He's a level 40 sorc right now with a ridiculous 810 in magic. I got lucky.

I'll cheat him over to a lady just to get rift crystals, but I'd prefer not to. How is the pawn system broken right now?

That's the drake! You'll find him every 5? days in Devilfire Grove. Every item you and your main pawn are wearing has a chance to become dragonforged. I killed him tonight as well, but nothing forged for me. Glad to know it still works, I'm just having REALLY lovely luck tonight.

There's a set % chance for every item to become dragonforged based on how far you've upgraded it.

Also, it's a really fun (or frustrating) fight, depending on your class makeup. I barely scraped by as a magic-heavy party because the drat drake kept mind controlling our one fighter. Cue all of us running around like idiots not having time to cast.

That's the thing, he might actually be getting hired! You just can't tell because the screen that would tell you what your pawn got/what their ratings were is just... Not existing. Check to see if he has any knowledge of unknown monsters or quests, because THAT stuff is working for whatever reason.

Is the record of "pawns your pawn knows" working at the moment, or is it nothing but the monster/quest knowledge?
