Evil Canadian posted:RB has your skills, LB is useless. Are you using one handed weapons? beacuse they only get 3 skill apiece with the other 3 going to your secondary weapon (bows, shields) I'm loving the game so far. This is probably the most fun I ever had playing a mage in a action WRPG. Unlike say, skyrim the spells look and feel powerful and you can actually use them as much as you want without having to watch mp/spell points.

I have been playing all day and I haven't even made any significant progress in the one side quest I'm trying to do and I'm still having fun. This game is definitely the Dark Souls of 2012 for me. [e] Am I crazy or does archers sometimes use bushes for cover?

VDay posted:You get a couple more at level 5, and then the real big gently caress-off sorcerer spells come at 6. As people told me earlier though you should be able to just use the mage offensive spells in the meantime. Or did you not go Mage->Sorcerer for some reason? I was a mage but I quit after getting the high x spells.

Samurai Sanders posted:Why are ogres the most dangerous things I have fought so far? They apparently aren't even classified as "large" enemies, not having multiple life bars destructable sections and stuff. But holy poo poo they just take damage forever, they're just a giant uniform hunk of iron with arms and legs. I just got killed trying to kill the last one in the quarry, there's no room to maneuver or even see very well in there. Also unlike cyclops they are fast as hell and can pretty much one shot you. I had a ogres kick me and all my pawns from all the way across the room in that tight quarry.

The necromancy spell is such bullshit.

Speaking of things pawns shouldn't do, I wish after a certain point they would stop saying poo poo like "I bet we will use this inn a lot" or "this is the black smith!" If they make a DD 2 I also hope they give the different pawn voices different variations on the same lines. Being told the exactly same thing 3 times by 3 different voices kinda grates on you after a while (though I just might be spoiled by saint's row)

I changed my sorcerer to a magic archer, it's nice to be able to actually deal with monsters that are far away but I really miss making tornadoes and meteor showers. I changed at rank 8 though and now I'm wondering if rank 9 has augments useful to a magic archer or is it just high versions of spells I can't use anymore?

Comrade Flynn posted:Maelstrom or meteors. Which should I get? Maelstrom. Meteors are cool, but I find Maelstrom works better on tall bosses plus it's more accurate. It's also really good at wiping out entire groups of monsters if you can keep them off of you. It also has one of the best ranges for an attack spell so you can really gently caress people up before they even see you.

Test-0 posted:So, uh, I might have over done it in the Griffin quest... When I lured it in to land in the spot you give it a goblin snack, I proceeded to alpha strike it so heavily with a double Arc of Might from both me and my pawn that it was completely stun locked and what followed was like dropping a piano on a pigeon. Several flaming pianos. I think I've seen the same quest done by others and it was meant to fly away and lead you to some ruins somewhere where you have an epic showdown. That, uh, didn't happen. It's kinda dead. A lot. It isn't locked so you should be able to (also a few other quests take place at that location). An important item is there so you should probably go there eventually. Did anything happen story-wise once you killed it early?

I'm pretty close to the end of my first play-through and I have to say this is my favorite game so far of 2012. If they make the quests and story more interesting like in skyrim or new vegas and give you dialog choices in the next one it would be one of my favorite WRPGs ever.
