If anyone wants a free lovely level 17 mage, add me on XBL, my gamertag is Giggilyom. Also this game owns pretty hard. Just fought my first ogre, it kicked my rear end until it decided to grab the female pawn in my party and jump off a cliff with it.

I haven't had an ogre kill me yet, but they definitely are the hardest enemy I've fought so far, besides maybe the random 10 billion HP doom bandits. Also I found a pretty rad pair of daggers for magic archers, with like 300+ magic power and they're constantly on fire. Good thing I'm going assassin or else I might really use them.

Hell yes, finally I can run around with all of the augments I want for my assassin from fighter and strider, and I have a bunch of second level skills for sword and bow. Also my sword is permanently on fire. I should actually start doing the main quest now I guess. But before that, does anyone know where golems spawn? I need to kill a few more of them so I can get a third level flaming sword thinger. Also upgrading is interesting, because if you have everything you need for the third level upgrade you can just skip the first two.

fullTimeLurker posted:what's up with those bandit leaders. Ran into one on my way to witchwood, slaughtered my entire party without taking any damage; including 4 fully charged triple-shot fireballs to the face. Ended up doing the entire witchwood search quest with just 1 strider since she was the only pawn to not die horribly to the bandit. They are there to let you know that you're supposed to do notice board quests are Cassardis until you're a bad enough dude(tte) to kill the bandit leader. Unfortunately I didn't even know that notice board quests existed until I was in Gran Soren 15 levels later. EDIT: I killed four Cyclopses, a Golem, and packs of bandits with ease and then got my poo poo pushed in by a bandit leader when he decided to one shot me. They're really, really dumb enemies. I'm level 28. VVV turn off the TV fucked around with this message at 20:52 on May 24, 2012 |

OK Octopus posted:I'd just like to reiterate how amazing that title screen song is. Somehow, it manages to be both ironic and unironic at the same time... you really can't help but feel pumped by it. Yeah, from the moment the song transitioned from the piano to the jrock I knew this was going to be an amazing game. It synced up perfectly with me hitting the main menu.  Samurai Sanders posted:Assassin with bow and sword supremacy, holy poo poo. No RPG yet has made it so easy to switch on the fly between bows and swords. Also I can quickly switch my bow out for a shield when in close quarters. Sword/Bow assassin owns and I feel like Wander, running around with all of my stamina upgrades and augments. I can hang onto monsters forever, which makes griffon fights pretty amazing. Jumping onto one when it takes off isn't suicide anymore!

Okay, so Witch Hunt quest spoilers right here. I have a question. Selene says she wants to go live in my house, which I guess is okay since I never use it anyways. Then an item box pops up. What am I supposed to do with that? Lotish posted:Right now my healer is Lil B (not at whom to check which goon he belongs to) and he's working out pretty well. He seems to be very concerned with keeping our health topped off, which is a boon on escorts where the ward keeps getting between me and the saurians (looking at you, Adaro! I have never had trouble on an escort quest because of him, it's great. Does nothing besides buff and heal, thanks Mendicant!

When I'm running around Gran Soren and in the countryside I keep on seeing pawns in really awesome looking equipment, and then finding out that they're like 10 levels under me. Am I missing some easy way to find good stuff? All of my weapons are fine, or better than what most other people have, but my armor and stuff apparently sucks.

grrarg posted:Play make-up with your pretty pixel princess, like GraBug's pawn Scarlet. She is amazing. Garfunkel looks great too. Everyone on 360 should use them so they become top-ranked. Lil B the based pawn is already 5/5 stars in all categories.  I do wonder what would happen if I made him green, though.

Nelson Mandingo posted:If you climb on the helmet, the Cyclops will take off his helmet to grab you. This is actually a problem with aggressive spell users as they'll just shock the hell out of the Cyclops and they'll never take off the helmet. Not to mention they take off the helmet and grab you really really quickly, so you basically have to take getting grabbed and hope your pawns stun the cyclops, or you break out of the hold. Breaking out of holds is nearly impossible in this game. I think I've done it once, and that's with years of Mario Party under my belt.

Clocks posted:Can we go back to inclinations really quickly? Which have people found to be really useful for which classes? My buff/healing mage is running Utilitarian and Mendicant, and spends most of his time in fights buffing/effect clearing/booning, and then from time to time one shots chimeras when he gets around to attacking. It's nice because I rarely ever have to use healing items because I'm always getting healed/buffed by him. Nexus is fantastic on fighter, though, but most of them run Guardian which is unfortunate. Same with Mitigator.

Samurai Sanders posted:So I'm under the shadow fort looking for one of the idols to give to the weapons sellers, is it in that chest with an iron grating in front of it? How do I get in? If you accepted the quest to kill the cyclops it either drops from it, or is simply added to your inventory when it dies. As far as I remember. Okay, so I just got to the end game and it owns. Is there anywhere to get level appropriate loot from, though? I want a sword with 1000+ strength too.

Samurai Sanders posted:Oh, I didn't even see those (who is going to take their eyes off a dragon that is swinging its claws and breathing fire), I will try that next time. If you're still having trouble with it, are on Xbox, and don't mind backtracking, just hire my mage pawn. He is built around fighting similar enemies right now and should be able to carry you through. I had absolutely no problems with that fight, and I'm pretty sure its mostly because of him.

Wildtortilla posted:and was hoping you (or someone) could expand on what it does wrong. This game looked like a hybrid of Skyrim and Dark Souls and I enjoyed both parts of the demo I played a month, or whenever, ago. I loved the hell out of Dark Souls and everything I saw and played with this game looked great, what does it do wrong? I could read a review or two, but I think people here have a better sense of things than reviewers. It's more like Fable and Dark Souls, and only really Dark Souls because you can get your poo poo wrecked if you do things wrong. The plot is pretty nonsensical, and quests are completely unforgiving because you have one save slot and can't load. You can skip tons of content without knowing it because you go to the wrong place, and have a bunch of quests cancel on you. Some of the classes are more fun than others. The world is really linear and not nearly as large as the game wants you to think it is. A lot of the length comes from the fact you can't fast travel, so when you're walking everywhere it really does feel large, but it's not. The environments are all also pretty samey. There isn't a lot of content despite being a longer game. Somehow. And apparently NG+ isn't really hard at all, either, so some people are disappointed by it. There are also some technical issues like lag, screen tearing, and insane character pop in at times. At the same time I haven't stopped playing this game since I got it and it's rapidly becoming one of my all time favorites. Judge Tesla posted:This game has made me feel like a creep, so apparantly Symone is my love interest due to her being dragon-napped, I only gave her a few gifts as a way of being nice too! A similar thing happened to me! I spent the entire sequence confused out of my loving mind and more than a little horrified.

So if you beat the Ur-Dragon singleplayer it doesn't dragonforge all of your weapons. I guess I'll just wait until the internet is about to kill the main one and then bust out my 40+ wakestones.

Okay I must be doing something wrong? I'm fighting the dumb Ur Dragon online, and while I can kill it in about fifteen minutes offline because it keeps running away, I do gently caress all damage to it online. And it has more health every time I fight it.

So I did what the info box told me to do and got a wyrm, wyvern, and drake tear in my inventory at the same time, and the only effect I've noticed is that rare drops stop happening with any frequency at all. I guess it's okay if you really want wakestones for.. some reason.

So draconic enemies stopped spawning in my game for some reason, but I'm not done dragonforging my weapons, so I figured I might as well kill the Ur-Dragon again since that has a 100% chance, right? Nope.  This game really, really doesn't want me to max my gear out.

Gouge is hilariously broken. I can solo the Ur-Dragon in about 30 minutes total using it, counting time spent waiting around for the dumb dragon to come back. Now that I'm in NG+ I could probably do it much faster. Assassin owns.

Your pawn isn't being hired, the game is just pretending that they are. If your pawn is actually hired you're shown who hired them/how many RC you got/your rating on an info screen.

Drakes use fire, Wyverns use.. purple stuff, and Wyrms use ice. Their hearts are also located in different places - the Drake's heart is on its chest, the Wyverns on its back, and the Wyrm's heart is in its stomach.

Do the effects of NG+ stack, so you can get ridiculously hard enemies at some point? That would be kind of neat. Hell, I would buy difficulty DLC from Capcom. That's how much of a baby I am.Mr. Crow posted:So this game looks amazing, curious what the general "negatives" are for it (e.g. why it's not gotten amazing reviews like Dark Souls vs. just good reviews)? Likely grabbing it regardless but I'd like to get a feel for what the general consensus is on the games faults, and if I care. A lot of the reason people don't like this game I guess is because they were expecting an amazing, well woven storyline in a video game for some reason, and while the poo poo Bethesda churns out gets a pass I guess Capcom isn't so lucky. It's also sort of hard and very old school, with an actual fast travel system and not the "choose a location on the map to instantly appear at" thing that people like for whatever reason. Not being able to skip like 50% of the game's content is a bad thing apparently. The world is pretty unfortunately samey, though. There's a grand total of two actually different looking biomes. And even then that's more of a palette swap. NG+ is also too easy.

Cbouncerrun posted:No Fire Affinity? Fire Affinity isn't that great. I personally go with Holy and Ice, since later on Fire has a tendency to, uh, go wrong. Shadow Ninja 64 posted:For a long time my Main Pawn was a Mage focused primarily on support. In that process her main inclination became Guardian, and everything was cool. Now, however, I use her primarily as a Sorceror, so I'm wondering what inclinations would be best to force on her with illicit drugs purchased from the strange old dude by the Encampment riftstone. You can read the descriptions for what they do while there. Just pick anything besides Guardian, whatever you do, it's really the absolute worst.

Some of them have two different spawns, which one you get seems to be more or less random. They should change each time you enter/exit the room, too.
