Ah. I thought you were saying that the AoE fire was DoT and I couldn't get it to proc because of low STR.

mauman posted:Also, dots of the same type don't stack. So if you have a troll (bleed), imp (arcane), Dryad (frost, poison), or witch (fire, poison) you're being redundant. I'm pretty sure that's not the case. E.g. the AM sorcerer ends up getting two frost DOT-causing spells and they stack.

mauman posted:Interesting. I know poison/arcane/bleed skills don't stack. They might be considered two separate dots. A few of the skills work wildly weird in this game (see scorch) My memory could totally be faulty here, but yeah I'm pretty sure if it's a different named DOT then it should stack. Not that I disagree about the KM still being better.

I really don't care about all the stat nerdery in all honesty. Just keep in mind two things: 1) don't spoil anything by discussing specific Arch Magus abilities 2) don't spoil boss fights. Even "oh man check out boss seven fight three when you get there IT IS SO SICK" because it's not like I knew there WAS a third fight or whatever. No one has violated these rules yet! Just keeping things in the rails, just in case

Also as far as I've been able to tell you can have poison, bleed, scorch, witchfire, and sear all on one target and every single one of them will do damage. It's pretty incredible

Gah! I missed voting! Oh well. I played through with an Arch Magus my first time through this game, and I rolled a Knight Magus this time. Of the two I like the Knight better, although it might just be my memory playing tricks on me with respect to the Arch Magus' usefulness. In either case, a couple of things about paths not taken, since I'm assuming that's fair game - First, the Werewolf is probably the source of the Fire/Ice Blade thing, odd as that sounds, since around about now (as in around this next block, I think?) he learns Fire and Ice Claw, which share every property (Energy cost, cooldown, effects) with the Puppet's version. This is nice because it gives him something to consistently do in boss fights, since his default oraoraoraoraora approach is great for packs and lousy for single targets. Second, Arcane Blade, the Knight Magus's trademark ability (or at least the first one s/he learns) seems like either it's bugged, or the display for its effect is, because while it does do enough damage to make Vlad's big ol' swing hang its head in shame, it also pops up a mysterious blue number, which starts around -50 for me. The only thing I've ever seen that uses blue numbers is the +1 Focus display that pops up at the start of each participant's turn. Soooo...maybe the Knight Magus can nuke enemy Focus pools? I honestly don't know. Like so many things Paper Sorcerer, it is a mystery to me. vdate fucked around with this message at 01:28 on Sep 29, 2016 |

Use it on a mage, if the mage survives (somehow) he won't cast spells. Not that this works on bosses as far as I remember. Chokes McGee posted:Also as far as I've been able to tell you can have poison, bleed, scorch, witchfire, and sear all on one target and every single one of them will do damage. It's pretty incredible Oops, not what I meant. I meant two poison skills couldn't stack or two bleed skills. Yes, all of those can stack, and if you're going the magic route it's pretty much your best bet. still nowhere near as good as physical damage though mauman fucked around with this message at 00:11 on Sep 29, 2016 |

Looks like I missed the vote, but I would've voted for Arch Magus anyway just for magic and magic with a side order of more mage with extra magic.

This is why I was really hoping you guys would pick it, because hornhead sure as hell isn't going to go "Hmm, you know what I want? To be on the front lines getting punched in the skull!" He's really more the "I'm not lifting a goddamn finger unless it's to turn someone into ash" type.

You guys. You guys you guys you guys. I finally cleared the next floor. It had a plot point that I already knew about it and it was everything I could've hoped for. Nobody spoil anything but we've got fun times coming up in the next four updates. I'll be in Hawaii all of next week though so don't expect it then.

"Please send help, we tried to remove the things batteries when it kept creepily saying "LP FFL3" when it didn't think we were watching which makes no sense to us as the US Coast Guard and can only assume its cartridge or whatever just got too much salt water and corrupted it from saying what it was designed to, like "I'm Talking Tina, and I'm going to murder you" like any other good normal talking doll would... ...but there are no batteries to this thing!"
