Is there any reason to sleep at an inn except to update your pawn? They cost a lot of money and don't even provide a buff, whereas camping is free and does.

I don’t know if that’s how it works but you wouldn’t need to go afk, just not sleep at an inn.

mdct posted:You can change them at campsites without needing to rest at them, but yeah, I feel like the game really wants like one more skill. Just one - with how much more the skills do in this game compared to DDog 1 maybe a full 6 would have been too many, but 5 is, I think, where it shoulda ended up. Didn’t the first dog have 8? Four on your right hand, four on your left. (A fighter got four slots for sword skills and four slots for shield skills, a strider got four dagger and four bow, etc)

Picturing an inn room just completely chock-full of decaying monster parts, obsolete equipment, herbs and interesting rocks. You have to turn sideways to sidle to the bed. Like a heavily-armed episode of Hoarders.

Sorcerer has been effective so far but with no way to target weakpoints I worry I'm going to have trouble with Drakes etc. What element should I be using on the stone lizards (rattlers)?

It turns out Drakes do not like Maelstrom. Who knew.

ChrisBTY posted:2) I try to use the ropeway station. First time is fine. Second time my main pawn walks off a clip so I get to ride the gondola to its location with the lovely soundtrack of 'a pawn dying'. I touch down. I charge a group of Toxic Saurians despite being at like 60% loss because the hell I'm paying 9999G for an inn room. I die because I'm stupid. Luckily when I reloaded the game reloaded my idiot pawn next to me so I could revive him instead of having to find a waystone. There's also a cheap inn in town. You don't have to go to the 5-star one.

Demiurge4 posted:Another thing that annoys me with the opaque systems in the game is how bosses respawn and how it apparently distinguishes between dungeon(cave) bosses and those in the wild but there's no information on it at all in the game. In the first game at least you could use forged crafting materials in upgrades.

Meteors solve everything. Only disadvantage is that without a pawn to grab aggro you're completely defenceless against anything scarier than a goblin.

Broken Cog posted:Edit: I'm actually tempted to start over again, and set up a new pawn for people to hire while I take a break. What's the easiest way to get into Battahl? I just hopped in the back of an (enclosed-back) ox-cart that was heading through to Battahl. They searched it in theory but didn't actually spot me standing there, and I jumped out on the other side. Not sure if this exists before the story progresses though?

They should make Dragonblight increase pawns strength/magic proportional to how close they are to going genocide man. Make it a gamble.

McKilligan posted:Oh my God I love Meteoron so much. Just calling in a loving howitzer strike. Sorcerer felt a little underpowered before this but the tables have turned. Don't forget about Maelstrom. It doesn't have quite the damage output of Meteoron but it works in a lot of situations that the other doesn't. Edit: Also, you can keep a Meteoron in Spellhold to double-tap things. Always use the standard cast first because releasing the Spellhold will straight-up knock you down from lack of Stamina.

Strip naked, tell your Pawns to wait somewhere, approach driver from behind and talk to him. From that point on act like a masterless pawn.

Try to lure enemies away from the cart. And don’t destroy it with your own friendly-fire ofc.

Nuebot posted:I swear it's something to do with like setting the corpse on fire or exploding it. I've done it manually by throwing explosive barrels at a cyclops before, its corpse burnt away just leaving bones. So sometimes a pawn will cast meteoran and every meteor will just pummel something out of existence. The times I've seen it happen has been when one of my spells keeps hitting it after it's dead. Salamander continuing to DoT and burn up a griffon corpse, or the first meteor killing a cyclops and the remaining three blowing it to pieces.
