Verranicus posted:I think a lot of the people panicking about the XP bug are just assuming they should be getting more XP than they are because they have quests/items in their inventory that are in the 30s or higher and they're seriously underestimating the length of the game. Not getting any XP from major quests of approriate level is a pretty clear giveaway. I just gave myself like 2-3 levels with cheatengine and proceeded not to care about being the bug.

Nasgate posted:This. I don't remember if he's one of them, but the leader I love to use' ability doubles the strength of your siege units. Two catapults plus that is 64 power. I think the extra leader you get in white orchard is the one that removes weather effects. He's really good in the early game.

Verranicus posted:Like I said earlier, I think a lot of players are just confused that they're not getting experience from every quest and because they see quests at level 20+ they expect to be getting more than they are without realizing how massive the game really is. I literally did the whole Skellige main quest line without getting a single point of experience. And no, I wasn't overleveled. At least I'm on PC so I can easily fix that by giving myself some levels, but this has to be really annoying for console players.

david... posted:Once the oils become permanent and the potions last ridiculous amounts of time it's not much of a hassle. Using more than two different potions/bombs is always a hassle. Slashrat posted:Yeah, it'd be nice to have some more hotkeys to assign potions to. I get that they didn't to maintain control parity with consoles, but it'd make a world of difference if there was less hassle associated with it. There is really nothing preventing them from making a quick select for multiple different potions/bombs for people with controllers.

david... posted:Hitting consume on the menu screen for everything you want to use beforehand and just keeping swallow and white raffards on the quick buttons worked fine for me, it's not likely you'll decide you need to use something else halfway through a fight in my experience but... Which makes specializing into alchemy a bit pointless.

Snuffman posted:I do hate when I see an obviously ominous cave and have to hop into my inventory to swap in cat, chug it, and then swap swallow back in. Its an extra step but its annoying. You can actually use potions straight from your inventory, no need to swap swallow away. My problem is mostly that I hate interacting with things in the inventory. Just having separate taps for your Potions/Oils/Bombs and billion of different dedoctions would go a long way.

Begemot posted:Enemy loot tables are tied to level, and for some reason red mutagens are way more rare at early levels. Maybe it's supposed to balance the attack bonus or something. But by level 20 you'll be drowning in them just like blue and green. I'm level 22 and I've managed to create only a single Greater red mutagen while I have like 5 blue and green ones.

OAquinas posted:Yeah, monster-specific mutagens don't count--they're used for specific decoctions, not mutagen slotting on the character sheet. Color for those appears to be arbitrary. Makes sense the attack power ones would be delayed; it's easy enough to get overpowered for the early levels without being (more of) an obscene berzerker mutant. Stacking Sign intensity is probably the easiest way to get overpowered right now. Igni tends to destroy most enemies.

Walrus Pete posted:Speaking of oils - is there a definitive set of stuff I should/shouldn't use ekkimara hides on? I have two of them and have been afraid to make anything that needs them for fear I'll find a recipe for something I want more later. Same with the single golem heart I have; I kinda want to make the Blizzard potion but what if I need a golem heart later?! The new patch seems to have removed the Ekimmara hide requirement in at least some of them so you probably won't need to worry about that.

The Yennefer Gwent card is miles better than the Triss card so obviously Yennefer is the correct choice.

Fhqwhgads posted:From what I've been reading, medium armor + signs seems to be underpowered compared to swords + alchemy, so is the light vs heavy armor more of an aesthetic choice, or are people going all in on either light or heavy but not both? Granted I only just got to Vizima so I'm still in the very beginning of the game, I'm just trying to do some planning. My ability points have been going to potions and the mind control sign for dialogue options so far. I'm still not sure if I should be doing light or heavy swordfighting just yet. Igni with high sign intensity trivializes every single fight where the enemies are capable of burning.

Anti-Hero posted:Furthermore, I spent an inordinate amount of time loving around with settings to try and hit a constant 60FPS. Once I realized I couldn't do that in this game and have most of the sliders on high/ultra I said "gently caress it", cranked everything to ultra w/hairworks and locked the FPS to 30 through my gpu control panel. It actually plays just fine at 30 and seems pretty smooth since the framerate doesn't skitter all over the place. I'd rather play this game at 60 FPS on low than 30 on high/ultra. It's just a preference thing and to me it just feels so much better.

Lobok posted:What did you find horrible about it? I played the first one on easy so maybe I missed some nuances. Had fun, though. I'll borrow the explanation from Endorph since she said way better than I ever could (I'm not sure if they ever fixed it in the sequels though). Endorph posted:the combat in banner saga is so horrifically bad and tedious that it actually makes me angry that they got away with putting it into a video game they charged money for. hp and damage are the same stat, and enemy turns are taken up on a global basis, so leaving enemies alive means they'll waste actions moving guys that can barely do any damage. therefore the solution is to just whittle everyone down to 1 hp, then kill them off one at a time. the combat has exactly one (1) battle with any kind of objective besides killing anything, and exactly zero (0) battles that don't take place in a flat box. and you essentially just have two kinds of units, ranged and melee, with the only differences being rather they do counter damage (garbage because that ruins the primo strat of reducing everything to 1 hp) and whether or not they have aoe attacks (broken because you're leaving everything at 1 hp)
