TeaJay posted:Is this how you reach the path that has a locked door and eventually goes to the tower? I racked my brain a lot trying to figure out how to reach that place. If it is, I'm gonna need some better coordinates if you follow the east path into the battleground, there should be an NPC wandering around. he's gonna ask you to take him up to the building so he can ring a bell, he'll lead you exactly where you need to go.

(i think its a wakestone?). they're kinda just 'shortcut' generators similar to kickdown ladders

If it is, I'm gonna need some better coordinates To open that door I had to go the back way through the caves behind the keep above the ancient battleground. You could also get there by gong through the marsh. One of the working trebuchets is on a rise just above that door, though.

Magil Zeal posted:I like the Trickster, except for the part where if I even get slightly tapped my illusion goes away, and then all the enemy aggro refocuses on me. Skill issue maybe, but it can be frustrating. Plus while it's a fun gimmick some of the other classes can just do such insane stuff it seems overshadowed. the trick is to put the floor under the ghost most enemies when they touch the floor fall over or use a wall and make things path funny

Thundarr posted:I found the two working trebuchets at the ancient battleground. One opened up a small room with minimal treasure, and the other opened up a mountain path (which you can reach anyway with some careful climbing). I've heard there's a third one out there somewhere though. 1 is on the wall in the ancient battle ground and it shoots west past the dragon to knock open a small room 1 is in the eastern part of the ancient battle ground that you will have to go inside the fort and then run east past a cyclops. It fires south east at a mountain pass. 1 is south of that mountain pass at a ruined tower. It fires across the way to open a space that shows a chest. Also the ruined tower has a special mob at night Third World Reagan fucked around with this message at 17:32 on Apr 2, 2024 |

There's a barred door on the road to the battleground, near where you find Oskar. He leads you into the keep and gives you a key to a door inside the keep but doesn't help you with that door where he started out at. For that one you have to go the long way through the keep, or the marshes, and come at it from the north.

So when you follow oskar, you can turn to go to the cave which has a cyclops in the way or stay on the wall which has a cyclops in the way

The Muffinlord posted:Huh. I'll have to check that out. The Sphinx is up there, but I'm guessing that's not the path you're talking about. Actually that's about halfway! You can scramble across the mountain crags just east of there and go south to get into the road that leads to the door. And yeah I think you could just stay on the wall and go east, bypassing the cave. But don't skip the cave, it's kind of a big deal.

I tripped a cyclops that wasn’t wearing a helmet. It was close to full health at the time, it hit its head on a rock when it fell and instantly died. Make sure you wear your helmets kids

I'm constantly surprised at the amount of lines pawns have. My pawn just commented on how she used to be a Fighter but now she's a Warrior and much stronger.

It doesn't cost much in points, which you'll be swimming in eventually. Getting some of the augments from other vocations can be helpful, and it's fun to try new things!

Sloober posted:i dunno, 3 is one of the most ignorable systems in the game, there's very little involvement you really have to do on it. either they need to expand it or do what i would prefer is just scrap it b/c its so meaningless. dragon can kidnap whoever he wants and i dont even think the dragon has to kidnap anyone tbh. i'm generally pretty 'why bother' with those systems since i dont really get *that* into game worlds though. I'm not talking about who the dragon kidnaps. I'm talking about Ulrika. At the end of the quest "Home Is Where the Hearth Is" Ulrika kisses you and it's implied that you sleep together. Now some of you might wonder why that's a big deal. But we all know that no game developer would ever, ever do that with a male NPC without giving the player the choice to back out. So why not include that option with Ulrika? I think the same thing happens with Aelinore in the first game.

The beautiful thing about the seeker token riddle is you'll probably find it in like 5 minutes if you go back to Melve, and if you don't it doesn't matter at all - you can just ignore it and fail!

It's a very funny quest that's a deliberate gotcha on your first run but, at least the finders token is forgeable, and presumably you could get someone to gift it to you.

Magick Archer is very annoying to play. Why the gently caress is there a 2 second pause between aiming and being able to use a spell? I don't remember it working like that in the first game.

I did find it pretty amusing how thirsty Ulrika was for my Arisen, a muscular lady about two and a half heads taller than the dainty little archer. Someone wants to put that Avidity augment to good use.

Has anyone actually seen a monster kill another monster? Because I'm watching this pack of goblins just hang around next to a drake, just waiting to gently caress me.

Ok, having been all over the map in the unmoored world I can safely say that there is absolutely nothing new of note unless you enjoy hunting chests with slightly better gear for its own sake. Edit: The fog seems to be gone in the Misty Marshes though, so that's neat

Demiurge4 posted:This is so funny in hindsight but I stayed at the gate inn a bunch of times before I realized this. It's probably an Eastern dev mindset but it does feel like Eastern developers hate the player sometimes because very little thought is given to QoL. Like the ferrystone system feels just spiteful both by the cost of buying them, the extreme rarity of them dropping and the way quests in the world are structured. There's a quest that takes you from the Arbor to Bakbattahl, back to the Arbor, back to Bakbattahl and then back to the Arbor for your (poor) reward and it's such a loving chore to do it. You end with a pretty high number of Ferrystones, though (and IIRC the elf quests give a portcrystal they probably intend for you to use at the Arbor). Off the top of my head, the list of "out of the way key quest-related locations that can't be easily accessed by oxcart/portcrystal" is just Battahl, the Arbor, and maybe the Sphinx shrine, and maybe the volcanic island town. I say "maybe" for the last two since the former isn't too bad of a walk from the checkpoint town and the latter from Battahl, plus there isn't much stuff at either). Jack Trades posted:Has anyone actually seen a monster kill another monster? I saw a Gryphon kill an Ogre once. I think that might have been the only time. Gryphon is probably a rare exception since it's a large enemy type that actually flies around.

Yeah, I'm a straight woman who was just following a bunch of sidequests and Ulrika kissed me and jumped my bones without so much as a consent check. I don't actually care, but I think it's silly that 1) there's no male romance option (but multiple female ones) and 2) you just know that no dev has the balls to have a forced guy-kissing scene because the internet would blow up. And if it's not ok to do that with guy romances then maybe don't do that with woman romances either.
