drat, finally found an upgrade magic bow in a chest in Bluemoon Tower, then I died and when I got back the chest had a salubrious brew  Is this kind of like FFXII where each chest has a list of items it can drop?

Thanks, that was it. Looks like buying hair dyes unlocks them for the character editor. After going to the barber I see that there's a new section available where new colors will show up. Weird thing is that there's 14 spaces, only 1 of which being used by the color I bought, and only a few other colors available in that store. I wonder what else may show up.

Go into the rift and talk to her to add her to your favorites list. Then touch the rift stone and search by favorites and you'll see what level she "really" is. If it's not too high for you then release her and re-hire her.

Why are mage cast times so ridiculously long? The spells themselves do ok damage but archers seem to do the same amount of damage over time and have extremely better mobility. They should be half of what they are.

Just get out of there -Blackadder- posted:Is there an alternate quest option to throwing that family out of Fournival's house? Maybe not. You can buy the house yourself for 80k if you speak with Fournival but they may end up evicted even with that, I don't know. I gave the family the 30k to get them out of there Question of my own: I did the quest for the weapon merchant in Grand Soren, except I gave him a forgery. I think I hosed that up. Am I missing out on anything since he doesn't have access to better weapons now?

I've been playing this game in between work and errands and man is this a blast to play. Running as a strider and planning on going to magic archer later down the road but i've been using daggers mostly outside of the boss fights so would assassin be a better choice? And if anyone wants a sub-par mage/healer add CromisMildllyMad on 360.

If you like daggers it's probably best to remain a strider. Ensnare, as mentioned before, is a plain awesome skill. Assassins do get their neat counter abilities though.

If you do, each member of the house will give you a random item when you talk to them every so often.

Loofa08 posted:I'm enjoying this game but it does a poor job of letting you know if you're going the right way. Right now I'm supposed to be finding this bandit den. And I went to the place on the map. I killed all the bandits. But it doesn't say whether or not I've completed the quest. It also doesn't tell me if I still need to be here.... So do I just wander back to town or what? No quick travel is really annoying.

I decided to re-roll a archer type character. Because getting in the action just isn't working for me. And I agree the pawns are loving retarded. I spend waaaay too much time reviving them.

Loofa08 posted:I'm level 17. I get rocked by bandits. It's not that I can't handle them. It's just that it seems like I'm just wandering aimlessly due to the quest structure being loving terrible. I just went up this huge mountain, fought 2 trolls in a row. Then got to the top and fought a shitload of bandits. Now I'm not even sure if I got what I was here for. Because the quest isn't updating. It never ends. The bandits are easily the hardest/shiitist part of the game.Not like challenging hard either they are just cheap as gently caress. I'm level 29 and I don't know if I can finish this main quest mission because they are so overpowered. They just keep rocking me over and over.

So I'm doing the Watergod's Altar quest and I've got 4/5 of the pieces but now the quest marker is pointing me back to the dude who told me to find the pieces. Talking to him does nothing. I've got the entire map of that area uncovered so I don't think I missed any chests. Did anyone else have this problem? e: Also at the end of the quest at the Catacombs, Mason got pissed at me for sparing dude's life and said our partnership was over. Did I screw myself out of any cool poo poo?

They don't, I had four in one of my pawn's inventories and the fifth in mine. The game is really good at making it easy to combine/sell/turn in things by basically acting as though your pawns' inventories and your storage is all just your expanded inventory. They're all in chests I think, make sure you try every ladder up once you drain the water because I think every one leads to a piece. Then there's one just in the main room in a chest once you've drained the water. I think one you can get before draining, even, you just have to jump across to the chest in the center of the main room. Role Play McMurphy fucked around with this message at 02:37 on May 25, 2012 |

I wonder what kind of bandits you guys are fighting. I'm having no trouble with them at level 24 outside of escort quests, and only then because this rented mage pawn just won't heal them if only they get hurt (and they get bumrushed constantly).

I guess I'd just recommend trying some new pawns, hiring some level 50 or so dudes or something. My main pawn has three stars in fighting bandits so I guess she's learned some effective strategies. For me, ensnare works wonders as does the warrior skill where you launch them in the air. I just do crowd control at first to try to keep everybody down as much as possible and then focus on the ranged/magic guys.

Maybe I'm just exploring and doing a ton of sidequests but I'm level 40 and haven't even talked to Aldous yet. I'm pretty much destroying everything I come across. Refuse to go near that drake still though. Also low rank Ranger is hell... wow... I had no idea it'd be this bad... Assassin for archer supremacy so far for me.

Bandits can definitely be ridiculously hard sometimes. At a certain point they start throwing a shitload of warriors, archers, and rangers at you and it becomes a challenge to take out the archers without getting hit by anything. I'm level 41 right now with a party of level 41-45 pawns and mass warrior bandit spawn still destroy me if I'm not careful.

ugh. Scoured every corner of that map. Not a single unopened chest. I lowered the water my first time in and I can't locate the last Altar Slate. I have an Ancient Slate, but that apparently doesn't count. I give up on this quest. I'll come back around in NG+ and hope it isn't hosed. e:Apparently it was in the deposit box at the inn.
