They should just make the full set be a 0-cost Berath’s Blessing for everyone with 2.0.

I keep checking Nexus every couple of days because I feel like someone is going to make costume slots that change appearance but not stats so I can play dress up but deep down I know that will never happen. Too bad. So sad.

Does anything change in Poe2 depending on what God you support in Poe1? Trying to decide between Berath, Rymrgand, and Woedica on my rational/stoic Druid I'm running through poe1 and I'm not sure which I wanna do. Does it even matter? I supported Galawain on the first character I beat poe2 with and I don't recall it coming up more than once.

It's stuff like, a god says "hey thanks for doing what I wanted" and gives you some money or a minor stat boost. Probably pick Woedica since an incomplete soul transplant would explain why she's hanging out with the rest of the gods all buddy-buddy

Ginette Reno posted:Does anything change in Poe2 depending on what God you support in Poe1? The differences are very minor. Supporting Galawain means that Eder and Xoti get a +5 HP boost, for example, and that's probably the strongest effect. I believe if you get Hylea, you start with a bonus cake food item. Betray Berath in the first game and you start with a stat penalty.

I sided with Hylea because she seemed the chillest and I could never bring myself to eat that cake.

So there are opportunities to mediate between opposed party members? I never got one - only a few snappy lines between Maia/Pallegina etc. Does it only happen when both companions dislike each other? I tended to get eg Maia -2 towards Tekehu but Tekehu 0 toward Maia.

You definitely don't need both companions to dislike eachother. The conversations usually start with one of the two companions yelling at the other for something, so it's definitely possible the triggers are only one way and Maia is just too much of a professional to yell at Tekehu no matter how much she loathes him  The ones I know of are Xoti yelling at Pallegina (who is very nonchalant and pretty much ignores her), Pallegina yelling at Tekehu, and Eder coming directly to you to complain about Aloth.

Tekehu is a loving Snitch. He'll tell on you if you try to keep the prince in the dark about the smuggling operations that benefit the lower caste in the gullet.

If you have a chat with him and come to an agreement about keeping it a secret he won't dob you in.

Yeah I took him to see the garbage waterfall in the Gullet and stuff and he was cool with letting the pirates keep the food flowing.

I'm looking at this build guide for a Shattered Pillar Monk/Wizard to get the Citzal Spirit Lance so you can punch enemies in an AoE, but my question is: what about running Monk/Barbarian? How well do you think those two would synergize together? One specific question I have is: do Swift Strikes and Frenzy action speed stack?

Monk self buffs and Barbarian skills that let you regain resources if you crit with a crit focused build let's you wreck fools all day. I gave her jump boots as well so I just jumped around the entire back line two shotting every caster and ranged unit the enemies had before jumping back and helping the team finish off whatever's left. It's pretty cool. Swift Strikes and Frenzy don't stack from what I remember, and Swift Strike is the better option for the lightning boost later since that 15% is applied after everything, iirc.

Imagine my surprise when he did this despite not joining the team until hours after I had set that up. I dunno who told him in the five minutes between meeting him for the first time and talking to the prince.

Similarly, I was pretty annoyed when Maia abruptly and invisibly showed up to talk to one of her jerk-rear end contacts for her personal quest when she wasn't in the active party. I wanted to sidestep her bullshit and murder that guy

Man, it seems like the need for portrait photoshopping (for the small watercolor portraits) has really devastated the portrait selection for Pillars2, now that you need to use photoshop even a little bit, instead of just being able to copy your favorite fantasy picture and crop+resize it.

Maia's personal quest is poo poo since you can't call Maia out for not even subtle shady rear end business.

The simplest thing to do is screenshot your character in the character creator, then use an editor to make a "watercolor" version of the screenshot, then crop to the appropriate sizes. It does take a little while. If they do a PoE 3 they should include an automated portrait generator.

If you want to remain consistent, sure. The portrait packs folks made for PoE1 still function.

Ok, my info may have been out of date / antiquated this was the thread I was thinking of: https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/103065-portraits-iv/?hl=portraits There's also a portrait pack in the first post of this thread or there used to be. Someone should probably re-compile all the portraits from the official forums portrait request thread into a new pack.

Tekehu is an A-plus bro, but he unfortunately wouldn't get on board with me liberating the Huanu from their oppressive monarchy, so we had to part ways. He's at least pretty chill about it.

We'll see. Just got WM2 left to do, and then I'm finally ready to import my second run dude to Poe2. I'll be staying Druid and going Single class, but I dunno what kit yet.

support woedica, return thaos to the cycle, have aloth take over the leaden key, convince eothas to end the world one true path more serious endgame poe2 talk re: woedica - if you tell eothas to empower someone he always picks berath, right? I feel like at some point there was going to be the option to have him empower woedica if you already empowered her in poe1 but I haven't seen anything like that in any poe2 discussions.

Eothas probably wouldn't be particularly interested in empowering the goddess he died trying to stop before PoE1.

The first time I got to the endgame, I picked that option because I thought he would choose whichever god/goddess you backed in PoE1 or supported the most throughout the game, or would even get to pick from a list or something. Instead he's like 'lol, k' and the slide is always the same. Pretty disappointed in how that whole bit was handled, overall.

Eothas wasn't specifically trying to stop Woedica (I don't think) he was trying to stop the human cost of her plan. Also this game retconned it so what he was trying to do was secure the Engwithan machines and expose their purpose
