So is anyone else not getting anything after their pawns have been hired out, released etc. Because I know for a fact I've been doing it, as has my friend, and neither of us seem to be getting anything.

I want to run a sword/bow Assassin, but all its augments are too situational while Fighter, Warrior, and Strider all have the good poo poo. It's very feasible, a ring of perserverance makes it faster but it's fine nonetheless. You will have so much DP by the end game you don't know what to do with it so you don't really need to worry about spending it just to try stuff out.

Step 1: Start hardmode Step 2: Scream "gently caress everything kills me in one hit" for ten hours Step 3: Unlock Blast Arrows Step 4: Win game Yay for postgame! Now I get to go wiki up all the stuff I need to farm again. toasterwarrior posted:How feasible is it to, say, change vocations every five levels just so you can grab your augments of choice before settling on a final class? I want to run a sword/bow Assassin, but all its augments are too situational while Fighter, Warrior, and Strider all have the good poo poo. If you want to absolutely mix/max, it's Fighter to 10 and Assassin to 200. Since there's no point in doing that unless you're a terrible sperg (which I am) just change and level up whenever. Getting to the postgame also unlocks afk vocation leveling, so there's that. quote:Also, how plentiful are Discipline points overall? While playing the above classes, will I get enough points to have some rudimentary skills so I won't be stuck piddling around with basic poo poo while trying to level them up? By the time you max out a vocation, or get to the level where you can get whatever skill you want, you'll have more than enough points. Edit: No idea who Rawketts is, but thanks for the gifts and RC! Looks like the pawns are working now.

Oh and for the record I'm onmikhaos on Steam and I'm currently working on my Pawn as I greatly misunderstood the idea behind it and... wound up making my pawn identical in face and name to me, which was hilarious, but Now I'm trying to scrounge up Rift Crystals the hard way to get him a proper new name and face.

Bakalakadaka posted:I will never tire of tricking ogres into drop kicking themselves off cliffs. The trick is to either use a shield buff or a weapon buff, but not both. I would really only bother with weapon buffs if you have a party full of red/yellows. The shield buffs last decently long, and have really fast cast times. They're also not all that useful outside of solo play where you can count on being targeted. If you want to mix all of it with Abyssal Anguish, forget it. It's one of my big problems with MK. They have a ton of utility, but so much of it is dubious at best. The durations don't really make much of a difference, because to get the most out of things you need to be bringing the right elements, and there are a few variations on some of the same stuff, but you're stuck with 3 skill slots. I'm not sure how I would fix the class, except maybe get rid of the weapon buffs, and just tie them into the shield buffs. So you buff your shield, but when you get a perfect block, not only do you trigger the spell counter effect, but you get the weapon buff of the same element. I'm having much better luck playing MK like a 'caster'. Hang around the periphery. Drop some ruinous sigils. They have huge knockdown, interestingly, and the damage is solid if you're not going a warrior/assassin STR build -> MK. Combine with Sky Rupture, Stone Forest/Jungle and you can play a little bit like a more passive warrior, which is really interesting, since the flow of combat is really different, even if the playstyle is technically the same: aim for knockdowns, then go for the big hits. You can even stack defensive augs and just play it like a drat tanky sorcerer. Get Holy Aid on the shield and let blocked hits heal you as needed, and then go for things like stone jungle/holy furor for damage. sigils or cannons for smaller stuff. I'd probably favor sigils, and just use core skills for the small fry. Sigils can work decently, and also have the big knockdown potential on large enemies. I can't stand the class as a sort of melee buff build. Even if buff timers were hacked I'd just lose it's little niche and be something of a weaker fighter with different stat distribution.

I was not expecting this game to be so much fun. The dungeons are really well designed and atmospheric as heck. They did a pretty decent job with the lighting, shadow, and fog effects. The game can look amazing at times. Can't wait for the MEGA HD TEXTURE PACK.

This is a pretty good take on Mystic Knight, really. I do play it in melee fairly often--usually I lay down a Ruinous Sigil and then fight in and around it--but also there's a reason why most people just play MK as a Great Cannon machine. I also like to play Magick Archer alongside Mystic Knight, just kind of switch back and forth when I feel like it. I really want to love Magick Archer more than I do--something about standing back and shooting homing lasers out of my bow doesn't really do it for me the way that Mystic Knight does, at least when I played a couple years back. I might feel differently this time around, especially because I'm starting to wonder why I loved Mystic Knight so much last time. It's probably Ruinous Sigils in narrow corridors in Bitterblack, that's probably it.

So I accidentally killed the Innkeeper in Grand Soren testing out Ruinous Sigil after I bought it. Do npc's respawn? I got arrested before I could even think about using a wakestone. Killed him and a short little girl npc. Oops.

I love my warrior pawn, Demi. She knocks something big down, I start charging up a spell, like Gicel or something and she just saves me the effort and obliterates the poo poo out of it with Arc of Deliverance. poo poo rules.

God drat it I just want to use the inn while in Grand Soren. *Edit Rested up at the Great Wall a few more days and when I got back to Grand Soren all was fine. Also it seems I killed the guy who sells armor and weapons in my testing of my new powers. Lesson learned. Test stuff in the wild. Turk fucked around with this message at 16:29 on Jan 18, 2016 |

The game's difficulty is really strange. I'm playing on hard, and it doesn't really seem like there's a difficulty curve at all - some enemies do little to no damage to me even when they hit (I don't think I've ever seen a harpy or a knife bandit do anything), while others (grouped in randomly with the weak ones) kill me in one blow. The bigger monsters seem somewhat better balanced, but maybe that's just because their oneshots are much easier to dodge. Managed to kill a hydra in Bitterblack on level 30; took ages, but drat if it wasn't satisfying. Like someone said, game's janky and feels rushed / badly balanced at times, but when it works it's pretty drat fun.

So is it a pawn inclination thing to just smash everyone's stuff all the time? I rented one named Silver (maybe from SA, not sure), and every place we went, friendly or not, I'd just be chilling out talking to people, and she'd rush in and destroy all their furniture. And I'm not complaining, it was pretty funny... So shoutout to Silver, enjoyed you smashing furniture so I didn't have to.

What's a good way to deal with the tons of humans to the west of the starting area (the area beyond the rolling boulder)? I'm a level 25-ish fighter and still has trouble fighting them.

So... is the Mage's Inflection augment still bugged? Apparently in the console version it ended up broken post-DA and doubled the damage taken instead of halving it.

lets hang out posted:Except it looks terrible and armor stats don't matter at all I don't think it looks terrible but it's so overused that I refuse to hire any pawn that's wearing it. I also refuse to hire childpawns and prefer to hire unique-looking taller ones which is ironic since I think I just made mine normal height as well. The rift search tool is actually pretty useful since I like to use pawns that are my level - usually I'll pick up a physical class and then search for mages or sorcs. You can actually find pawns that have quest knowledge because they'll show up at the top of the list when you do a pawn search, which is pretty cool.
