https://youtu.be/jU-vkDLoGwQ?si=tEpio9trmZ9zXR-M IGN’s review is more mixed. They like the game, but note that pawns continue to die in frustrating ways, the camera often fights against you (especially when climbing), and notes that performance can chug as multiple enemies pile into a combat. Review is for the PS5 version.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQW0li02n2Q&t=68s So this video has some kind of confusing information about stats. The information we've been repeating is that when you change your vocation it just sets your stats to some arbitrary value based on your level, so level however you want. The video is saying that your stats actually do increase based on the class you're in when you level up, but that changing vocation will set them to certain minimums to keep you from screwing yourself too much. Have any of the other videos today touched on how the stats work?

Hommando posted:Anyone know if the golden trove beetles respawn? Googling this question has not been helpful. I want to give them out as quest rewards but not if I'm going to permanently lose them. I found one on a merchant just wandering between Melve and the capital. Weirdly it looks like an item he restocked, because he was sold out of items I bought from him on my first trip. Haven’t seen one respawn in the wild though.

LibbyM posted:do I need to do anything particular to have my pawn be hireable by random people playing the game, or is the simple act of playing the game automatically seeding her into people's rifts? Can people be using her when I'm also online using her, or will she only get use when I'm offline? Your Pawn is always available, though their status only updates when you sleep at an Inn (not at campsites). You do have to go into the Rift to set their Pawn Quest though once someone completes the initial "hang out with my pawn for a day and a night" quest. Multiple people can use your pawn at once, and they never disappear from your own game (though they will start talking to you about stuff they learned in other people's games).

Zore posted:I mean its a way to incentivize people to hire new people's pawns. The later quests are all player designed and assigned and cost resources from the player assigning them (though tbf it pays out to anyone who completes it and only deducts from the host once) I just wish the options opened up quicker; I've only got Kill Cyclopses and "Give me an item" quests, even though I've killed a couple other big monsters.

LibbyM posted:does current vocation change what stat gains you get on level up? And if so, does switching vocation retroactively change all those previous stat gains to match what they'd be if you'd always been the new one? Your stat gains depend on which Vocation you are currently in, but changing a Vocation will reallocate some of your current stats into the stats important for that Vocation. Eventually (like at max level) that means that everything will even out, but in the short-term you will be slightly less effective as you hop from Vocation to Vocation. That being said, it's much much much less noticeable than it was in DD1, so I wouldn't worry about it.

Went into a tunnel, tangled with an ogre (as seems to regularly happen). No worries, used to this, we triumph and keep looting the place. Walk out the front door and oh poo poo it's a manticore AND we're standing in a bunch of water. That ended up being a knock down, drag out fight because I've been trying to do some different comps other than the standard and had 2 Thieves and a Fighter with me being an Archer. Thankfully charged shots to the heads are a great way to knock a manticore to their knees because I was quickly running out of healing items.

Thundarr posted:I think if you request a gifted item and offer a big reward, there's a good chance people might hire your pawn only long enough to gift the item.

Looking for the Vero Mine, and my Pawn goes "Oh yeah I know that one, follow me". Which logically means she leads me in through the top entrance, I become completely lost, and end up searching a bunch of other random caves before looking it up on a wiki and finding the entrance I was expected to go through. I had a blast.

Just some random thoughts: 1) Plunder on my Thief pawn has been a lot of fun. Yeah it's mostly garbage (and the random silver ore) but I'm easily amused at the other pawns going "hell yeah, nice work stealing". 2) I completely misunderstood the tutorials and didn't realize I could use Left Button + Skill to let the game auto-aim Archer abilities that aren't the basic Loose Arrow. Less damage than aiming for weakspots, but it's quite nice when things get chaotic and I just want to spam Torrent and watch goblins get stunlocked.

MeatwadIsGod posted:This quest hosed with me because I never assumed the forger would tell on himself like that. Like, he's a forger and his job depends on people not knowing what they have is a forgery! I only found out after the quest that you can talk to the forger while Ed asks you to wait there, and then you can bribe him to tell Ed the forgery is actually the real orb. Oh it gets better: there's a 3rd way to solve that quest: It requires you to duplicate the Orb through the Sphinx (or cheating).

Perestroika posted:There's a third solution (if it's the border town quest I think you mean): Get the forgery guy to make you a fake orb, letting you give one to each. If you give the fake one to the dickhead he'll have it verified and you need to bribe the forgery guy to claim it's real, losing you a bit of money but still getting you the other rewards. If you give the fake one to the guy who just wants to run you probably get everything no questions asked, but I guess the guy eventually gets hosed over by it. Or the fourth solution: duplicate the orb via the Sphinx and let everyone have one

Kefa posted:Does it take long to reach the guy who unlocks MA? Thinking of just looking it up to switch to MA earlier. If you try to follow the story progression it will take you quite a while before you get sent in that direction, since it's one of the last areas of the game. That being said, I just went there on my own after looking it up and it's certainly doable at lower levels. I went in the high 20s but you could certainly go in lower if you're better at the game/more willing to run from fights.

Tambaloneus posted:What's the earliest I could feasibly get to the Magic Archer quest & be able to complete it? I mean, if I am of very average ability. I did it in the highish 20s with a mostly maxed out first vocation (Archer). You'll want to follow a guide if you're skipping the story quests, and if you have the RC hiring some stronger pawns helps a lot for encounters you don't run from. And as someone else mentioned, be prepared to grab the final escort and just haul rear end with him if you encounter anything you can't handle.

Koorisch posted:Man, after playing the starting melee classes trying out Archer is so weird to play, especially with a controller. Left Shoulder + Skill will auto target your skills, while Right Shoulder + Skill allows for manual targeting. So Left is good for smaller things or if you're running around a lot, Right is great for nailing weak points and trying to knock down big guys. Good skills: Barrage/Manifold - use this on downed enemies Torrent/Tempest - you'll likely replace Barrage/Manifold with this once you get it Dire/Deathly - good for downing big guys, slams little guys around. Launch it as soon as your character flashes white for maximum power. Whirling/Spiral - does continual damage to whatever it sticks into, so good for sticking into weak spots of big guys or using to clear crowds Your other skill is probably going to be one of the debuff arrows, depending on what pawns you're with. I always liked Exploding/Erupting because it can set big guys on fire.

Phlegmish posted:This recommended for pawns as well? I think it's what I have except Lyncean Sight instead of Deathly Arrow, and I should probably get rid of Lyncean since it doesn't seem to be all that effective on her. It's what I am running on my Pawn. She doesn't seem to hang back far enough to make Lyncean Sight feel worth it, and not even the pawns seem to know what to do with Heavenly Shot.

Ytlaya posted:When would you actually want to use the weird zoom-in Archer skill? Getting a couple shots on a target from far away before a fight starts doesn't seem worth a skill slot. I took Lycean Sight initially because I thought it would either let me work as a sniper hitting things in the head for big damage, or let me use Explosive Arrow from way outside of range (like the Magick Archer's Flamefang Arrow. Neither turned out to be the case, so I ended up dropping it since combat always happens pretty close in when I'm trying to support my melee pawns. I wish someone would dig in and pull out the actual damage formulas for these skills. I know there's a mod that shows damage numbers, but I kind of want to know if using Deathly Shot is better because it has more knockdown. Thundarr posted:Archer rules and the only reason I am unlikely to main it after maxing everything else is because magick archer exists (and also sorcerer, for those times I want to drop meteors on the heads of everything in visual range). Magick Archer has felt really empty for me after playing Archer. The skills are powerful and easier to use, but I just miss the satisfying feeling of putting and explosive or deadly arrow into something.

Phlegmish posted:One of the two mods I have installed shows you the numerical value of your pawn's affinity. The threshold for 'is in love' is 620 or so. I'm on my phone but think it's just called Main Pawn Affinity on Nexus. The mods "Show Favorability For Everyone" and "Show main pawn favorability" will both show your main pawn's affinity, while "Faster Pawn Affinity" will lower the threshold from 620 to something more reasonable if you're not constantly grinding and high-fiving your pawn.

Ytlaya posted:That's kind of weird. I guess they really wanted to avoid giving early players the ability to fast travel easily? Since the quest rewards are duplicated if multiple people do your quest before you check in at the Inn, it is probably to keep certain items from being cloned to the point of uselessness. To my knowledge you can't offer the following as rewards: Ferrystones, Port Crystals, Gold Trove Beetles, Seekers Tokens, a lot of equipment that sells for over 10k (the gems are an exception). You can still give them as gifts though, because that doesn't allow for them to duplicate, and you can ask FOR them as your Pawn Quest.

I'm considering betwen Frost and Saggitate but I might be missing a better option. I've been relying on Sagittate Avalanche since I've been running Warfarer and can't use Martyr's Bolt. As long as you can lock most/all the bolts onto a single enemy (especially if you can target a weak point) it will delete their health bars. Frost Hunter is good for stuff that can move behind cover or is weak to ice, but I prefer just to alpha strike things.
