yeah paralyze shows up way too early on enemies for how strong it is. tbf that floor's the hardest one before floor 5 imo, although the next floor down has some scary enemies. if you have rings of suppress affliction those are a godsend, they can shut down paralyze for upwards of 10 seconds which is usually enough to drop some of the scarier enemies

I'm doing the DLC for PoE 1 and I feel outclassed... i don't know if i'm not playing well, because i seem to be doing fine in other areas. I guess they're just loving hard, like the luminescent spore and the tower with the siege camp

also weapons and armor are class agnostic so like you can have a plate mail greatsword wizard or whatever as long as you spec them correctly

If you immediately pull back to the previous room with the blood pool, you can get them bottlenecked in a doorway. Also, knockdown works on the drake. Eoder was the MVP of that fight.

Once you get 3rd level spells and whatnot it will feel a lot less restrictive. It helps that generic attacks with rods and wands are fairly good in their own right. I absolutely hated casting at first but now it feels real good.

Unexpected Raw Anime posted:I bought the basic version, is the DLC for this (PoE1) endgame or does it pop up earlier and should I get it now I was given the option to do one of the expansion quests (they make a point to put it in its own quest subfolder) once Caed Nua was up and running, so it may be possible to do when you want, but I’m waiting to finish the main story anyway since they feel fairly separate.

although it will overlevel and overgear you for the main quest in a big way if you do that so idk. its definitely worth getting though

Yeah the rests thing is pretty annoying. I’m playing as a priest, still early-game, and I can only use my tier 1 spells 4 times and my tier 2 twice before I need to either use up a camping supply, run back to an inn, or just fight like a crummy under-equipped warrior. Being a priest is cool for story reasons, though, I’ve already got a ton of unique dialogue for being an Eothas worshipper just in the first town. None with Eder though so far, which is kind of strange. I hope I can get into theological arguments with the other priest when I meet him

Get rid of the staff and use a wand, rod, or scepter. Gives you ranged attacks without draining spell slots which will let you save those for “oh poo poo” moments when your team needs heals.

theres also a badass modal for scepters in particular that turns every hit into a mini-aoe. crazy good with weapons with on-hit effects. e: nvm wizard only

Yeah lol my mage has the aoe perk (blast i think its called) and a unique scepter with a charm proc. I rarely cast spells with him anymore except for boss-tier encounters.

probably gonna do a second run as an evil caster..PoE1 spoiler theres a santanic blood cult that you can actually join..im guessing by building a reputation as a vicious murderer and talking to the right people. also thinking about how much of the game would really change if i played that way
