Let the fools who stand before us be destroyed by the power you and I possess.
Anyone else had an issue with controls where the staff's light charge move keeps automatically happening and you can't finish casting spells by releasing R1/CTRL? I thought it was my DS4 showing up as two pads by disconnecting it and booting the game still has it happening. Only started doing this last night and it's quickly become frustrating.

I love it when I underestimate a drop and my Arisen faceplants with a spectacular SPLAT and pained groan. The healing-spell nimbus that immediately floats down onto him always feels so sarcastic. :allears:

It didn't occur to me that New Game Plus would clear my pawn's augment selection, so Diana Ross has been running around for a few hours without any augments equipped, and I got rocks from people who summoned her :downs:

Everything in this game is just so satisfying to do. Nailing a guy in the bean with a Full Bend shot and sending him flying off a cliff with a heavy crunch is just awesome.

Even when enemies do stuff like that it's cool. I remember the very first time I played this game way back when, the cyclops near the start swung wide and knocked Rook right off the cliff like an underhand baseball toss, and I was like "Oh poo poo that was awesome! Also, gently caress!"

Anodyne is such a bad spell. The fact that it only heals the gray parts of your health and tends to break pawn AI in two where they interrupt more useful spells to heal a paper cut even if they're not mendicant makes me actively avoid mage pawns in favor of sorcerers(even though I'd really like to have Halidom and Grapnel).

One of the assassin core skills is a double jump, which has some funny results such as falling a long distance, killing your momentum with a double jump, but still face planting when you lightly touch the ground.

I'm pretty sure if you mash alt you can get over to the tab that shows you what skills they have equipped.

Oh yeah, I know, but the odds of finding a mage pawn not configured to be a healer are basically zero. I just run sorcerers instead.

Counterpoint: Anodyne means I rarely have to use healing items, which trigger my D&D OCD, and so I love having a mage around.

Spring Waters are for all intents and purposes free, heal the entire party instantly(you can even use them during stagger animations and grabs!), aren't very heavy, pawns of all classes will eagerly use them, will heal your entire health bar instead of just the gray parts, and they don't cover your screen in glowy green aura garbage like High Anodyne does.

Yeah but you don't have to do anything for a pawn to heal you with anodyne

In the land of free infinite healing from magical spring water, laziness is king.

Into the Post-Game now (holy hell was The Final Battle amazing). I feel like I need to get a better handle on using curatives and crafting and suchlike. If there's a way to get away with not having to hire a Mage with Anodyne every time, which would free up space for more pawn combinations, that would be great. I know about the healing springs but the bottled water doesn't actually seem to heal all that much?

So I never had Dark Arisen on console and am just finally experiencing it.

How the hell do I get buff enough to handle anything past Gazer? All the enemies jumped from "on the easy side" to "can barely be scratched" immediately after that. I guess I should grind out from drake kills to get my dragon weapons dragonforged or something?

only fighters, warriors, assassins and mystic knights can grapple

also you have to hold the grab button down, not tap

Technically they don't have to be dead.

That explains it. I thought it was holding the button but it wasn't working for me; I'm a Strider.

If you saved Fournival, buy a bunch of Periaps from him: Conqueror's for physical damage, Demon's for magic. Use 4 at a time cause they stack up to 4.

Alt gives you your offhand skills, which for a strider is your bow. hold Control instead, that's your main hand skills
