Jackard posted:Did you make Mrs. Frisby a Fire Battlemage? I went with rogue due to the whole stealth-cat section of the film. Fire battlemage would have been a pretty good choice too though! I'm not particularly liking my Alchemist gunner. The gun seems to jam all the time even with 3 points in it, and it's doing pretty middling damage + running out of ammo a lot. I'm kinda wondering if I should have just done the more traditional ranged combatant.

Do injuries get healed over time by themselves? I got injured after beating the first boss, in the area just after that, but no tutorial message have told me what to do about it.µ

I enjoy the idea of shooting monsters in the face too much to drop the skill. I've got a point in throwing to support his early game, but I don't really want to 'waste' more points into it if I can avoid it. Do we have any sense of roughly what the expected end game level is? Anxious about spreading my skills too thin.

Where's the Temple (or something) of Gluttony at again? I found it once, but can't seem to find it again, and never marked it down on my map.

Underneath where you fight the leprechaun. The skill thing kind of bugs me too. I have no idea what endgame I should be trying to reach, so I'm spreading pretty thin. It's absurd how strong the Minotaur can get though. I went Minotaur Barb with the head hunting trait and he's up to 30 strength already about 5 hours in. I need to get him some better weapons though, the Rapier is not cutting it.

So I've more or less cleared out Twigroot, but I still can't figure out what's the deal with the one stone head that says "This is another way out", as it is above a section of the dungeon that is isolated from the rest of the complex by way of a teleporter. So what's the head talking about?

Additional question, regarding The Cache Basically all of the four choices seem pretty interesting one way or another, but are any needed for optional areas? I ask because the Snake Charmer's Cache includes Rope, and there's a snake temple that I was wondering might be opened by the bracelet or something? Really hard choice imo; The Paladin's Cache contains a very nice shield, though the sword falls into the Str-based-Light-Weapons niche I lack in the party, The Conjuror's Cache has a pair of sweet caster pants and an orb that can be used for light (never carry torches ever again!), and lastly the Thief's Cache has a pretty good bow and an extra set of lockpicks. Choices, choices...

How does plant growth work? Per stack or per plant? If I pick up three identical plants at the same time, and walk the needed number of steps do I have four plants or six? If it's per stack, I imagine a four alchemist party would be swimming in potions.

I've found the alchemist works well as a secondard caster. He he less energy than my primary Wizard, but when he runs dry I can swap to gunning, and I'm a sucker for his class power that spawns herbs.

Yeah, Alchemist isn't anything special combat-wise, but his herb regrowth ability is extremely valuable later in the game. You can always just train him in light weapons and give him a dagger, since those always does somewhat decent damage. There's also a bigger "firearm" that can pack quite a punch.

I wouldn't want to play without potions, and the herb regrowth seems like it's pretty helpful for that. I'm getting decent damage out of firearms and using blowdarts or thrown weapons as a secondary fire for him but not investing in it.

It appears Vitality / Willpower don't work the way they say they do... Basically some guy on RPG Codex figured out that attribute gains on level are not happening, so you're better off picking the +20 energy / hp traits.

I wish I'd gone Heavy weapons on both of my melee characters. It seems superior to light weapons in every way, and both of the absolute best weapons I've found so far have been heavy. My Minotaur is critting for 800+ on power attacks right now.

We probably should collect a spoilerlist for all the spells in the game. Here's a start from my collection: Spells: AM = Air Magic, EM = Earth Magic, FM = Fire Magic, WM = Water Magic, CO = Concentration. Numbers are from the numpad positions. 7 = upper left, 3 = lower right. Single school spells: AM1 - 9 - Shock - Hit everyone on front of you. FM1 - 7 - Fireburst - Same EM1 - 1 - Poison Cloud - Does poison DoT EM2 - 12369 - Poison Bolt - Ranged attack CO1 - 456 - Shield - Inc. protection, Con inc. duration CO2 - 789632147 - Forcefield - Blocks movement to a square. Con inc. duration. CO2 - 58 - Light - Guess. Multi-school Spells: CO3 EM3 - 52145 - Poison Shield - Protects from Earth based damage. CO3 FM3 - 54785 - Fire Shield - Protects from Fire based damage. CO3 AM3 - 58965 - Air Shield - Protects from Air based damage. CO3 WM3 - 56325 - Water Shield - Protects from Water based damage. WM1 EM1 - 123 - Ice Shards - Line attack. WM increases length. AM3 CO2 - 9652 - Invisibility - Self-explanatory FM3 AM1 - 7896 - Fireball - ranged attack. Please add spells you've found. I'm particularly needing some poison resist to deal with angry shrooms.
