I have to wait until Friday to play this because games still don't release in every country at the same time. The only upside is due to something happening on Thursday night I took the Friday off so I could drink

If you're going warrior and intend on using a 2 handed weapon, being small isn't great anyway. From what I remember small characters get knocked/interrupted a lot easier so while you get better stamina use, you'll struggle to get attacks off

The game arrived today and I love it. I've gone strider with a mage main pawn to act as support mostly. What skills transfer from the strider to magic archer/assassin/ranger? I've already unlocked assassin and I'm level 16. I'd love to keep the roll/double jump mostly. I'm likely to move over to assassin or magic archer I think but haven't decided yet.

Well I'm doing the shadowfort escort quest and so far have been ambushed by Lizardmen with a chimera which killed me so I avoided it next time, goblins with a cyclops I killed and just now goblins with a drake. Just to get to one of the first quests available.

So yeah what strider skills transfer to assassin/magic archer and how have people found them? I use my daggers more but I'm finding the bow a lot of fun, especially full bend that knocks things over. Which are worth keeping as well? I'm level 18 now and don't know if I should change already and save points

Do skills that have no icon mean any class can use them? Edit: I think I'm going to go magic archer anyway. I'm having a lot of fun with the bow and arrow and generally have been running with 1 figher, 1 warrior and 1 mage so I'm light on magic damage. I have just swapped the warrior for a sorcerer and its been fun though Jose fucked around with this message at 21:34 on May 25, 2012 |

Has anyone been playing magic archer? Is it fun? I'm so lost as to what I should go for. It certainly sounds right for me. Do you buff your daggers like mages/sorcerers can? Do you still need to aim or is it locked on? Sorry for all the questions I just want to know before spending the discipline points to unlock the class since I've already unlocked the assassin

I think I'll change when I start again tomorrow then. It sounds very similar to the strider just more magic which sounds good. I've already unlocked double jump and roll and a few of the dagger skills I have transfer over. I'll miss ensnare and full bend though

Rueish posted:I'll just say this again about Magick Archer, you gotta give it some levels before it REALLY starts getting good. It starts off pretty mediocre but turns into a killing machine. Being able to hit ~10 enemies over and over, then use an electric whip to destroy them all is amazing. There's just a bunch of different combos in which to... kill. Do you recommend using daggers or a staff as the main weapon or putting points into skills for both? I'd prefer to keep using daggers like my strider

Gestalt Intellect posted:How viable is it to always rent your healers? After finally ordering this I was going to roll one of the four Strider vocations myself and have my main pawn be a Fighter/general tank, but then I realized that I would always have to get healing mages from other people. Is it easy enough to search for the skills you need that I could rely on getting the ones I'm missing from others, or is that sort of luck-based? I've seen search criteria in videos for vocations but not skills. I've gone the other way. I've yet to notice a need for someone who can carry loads of poo poo and tanks seem to be far more common

I'm only using 2 augments on my magic archer, both extend stamina, from magic archer and strider. My main pawn has hardly any as well since she's only ever been a mage and they haven't seemed that good. Are there good sorceror ones I should swap to for a while? I've unlocked assassin but those augments didn't seem great outside of playing an assassin. Should I unlock ranger and get some from there? She has a really nice healing spell set now though I have been running with fighter/sorceror/mage/me for a while.

How much does the stuff for sale improve when you do main quests? How many do I have to do before it improves? I'm starting some now for the knight for the first time at level 25 and I'm still using the magic bow from the shop fully enhanced because I've not found anything better yet. I'm looking forward to wiping out full groups of goblins with a single hunter bolt. I've only got 2 bow skills currently since I don't really like the look of the ricochet shot or flare shot. I kind of wish I could get some form of full bend that I still got to aim since I love knocking people off cliffs using it as a strider. I'll have to wait for explosive shot. Also what augments would people recommend for magic archer? I think I need to change classes for a while to pick some up Jose fucked around with this message at 11:04 on May 27, 2012 |

Since I've gone sorcerer to pick up augments for my magic archer I'm now stuck with my mage main pawn who I'd also planned to go sorcerer for augments before moving her back for healing. Shes 1 rank off being maxed in vocation as a mage. What do people recommend I do for my party?

How viable is running Fighter/sorcerer/sorcerer/mage? I want the augments for both my character and my pawn from sorcerer and my pawns hit the max vocation rank for mage. I can swap back to magic archer while she goes sorcerer I guess

I'm glad I did a load of side quests before starting on the story, its made the first set of main quests from that knight far less punishing running fighter/sorc/sorc/mage. Also fighting big monsters is so much fun in this game I can't believe it. Now I can handle chimera's with ease and cyclops get absolutely destroyed with this set up. Can't wait to go back to magic archer and set myself on fire to climb stuff

All the sorcerer augments work for magic archers right? Don't want to go max rank sorcerer and spend loads of discipline points if I don't need to. For people who aren't running with a fighter or are a mystic knight, how well does it work? I can't do it yet since I'm using 2 sorcerers and a mage but I'm getting a bit bored of my party composition.

For people who've done the shadowfort I need help. I opened the gate but both balistas at the far side were active, killed the healer repeatedly because instead of following me downstairs insisted on trying to loving heal me so kept getting smashed. I failed to rout the goblins as a result. How will this impact the quest since I'll likely restart and how do I deal with those balistas? They smashed the one facing them before I could get a decent shot off I wish there was an easier way to return to your last save in the game than dropping out entirely
