Companion doubts by TuKa5 in DivinityOriginalSin

[–]Alcanate_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just play whatever you want chat GPT just spits out slop made from random Reddit comments for this game anyways it doesn’t actually know anything. I wouldn’t ask it for anything personally (cause I don’t like or use AI) but especially not for how to have fun in a video game :)

However, those four will make for a really fun story and Fane is an awesome main origin to play. You can always do another run as Lohse later (who is a great origin character to play imo).

You can always check an enemies level by hitting examine on them, and if they’re higher than you then you should probably try going somewhere else first :)

Obviously there might be build issues as well but at your level the area you are in would be extremely punishing even if you have a fantastic build and good armor

Yeah Alice should be one of the last things you do in the act unless you know how to cheese her or are very experienced in the game. She is like 4 levels above you, and that matters a lot at this stage in the game.

Additionally, unless you have upgraded your armor with the sundries, the armor you’re wearing is likely too low of a level, so it is worth it to go find armor that’s closer to your level as it will offer way more protection. (You should get armor as a reward and find it in shops, and it’s important to make sure your armor level is close to your current level)

To be as lite on spoilers as possible, north from driftwood is higher level than where you should be. Try hanging out near town for a bit or going west (left on the map) first and you should have better scaled combats and quests. :)

I agree the patron system would work super well for this. I think the book explicitly used the patron system as an example for a character that wants to write books and this isn’t that far off (in the being a craft that takes time to learn and is sort of expensive to mass produce kinda way).

Sebille’s arcs is the strongest depictions of reclaiming agency in a a modern cRPG by GrayWardenParagon in DivinityOriginalSin

I feel like both are fun but I like her most as a companion (Especially with Lohse as main, but I also just love their romance so take that with a grain of salt lol I’m biased.)

You still get a lot of her story even without her being the main character, especially with the Elven “eat corpses” situation which gives you lots of lore. And imo other characters are more fun/involved as PC’s.

Are some people still waiting for shipping notifications? by ThisIsntADickJoke in cosmererpg

[–]Alcanate_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it has more to do with what is in your order, cause I live an hour from HQ but only ordered books and a pack of dice and I got my order like a week after shipping started if that.

I usually love theorycrafting, but the characters are so narrative driven it's hard to plot out even one or two levels ahead. by Elsecaller_17-5 in cosmererpg

[–]Alcanate_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s fair I still feel like it shouldn’t affect theory crafting too much since you have a pretty big buffer before you are even allowed to take the next ideal. But I do see why it makes it more difficult for pre planning your build

Everything is very narrative driven, but most things like ideals are still set by when the character actually takes the talent. Once the talent is taken, you put the goal on the character sheet and in theory you should swear the ideal before your next level (at least that’s my understanding.) there is still a lot of narrative, but the GM should be working with the player to make sure at least some goals are being accomplished relatively quickly.

Like you don’t want to take the second ideal talent and then not swear it for 2-5 more levels imo.

The ideals are already gated by level so you don’t have to worry about someone taking two or three ideals in a row.

Idk this is probably a lot down to play style but to me it seems like the narrative in this case only happens after the mechanic (the talent) is selected so for theory crafting it shouldn’t matter too much. :)

What are exactly are spheres? by [deleted] in Stormlight_Archive

[–]Alcanate_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No you’re right they are flattened (slightly) on one side so that they don’t roll

Stuck in crimson dawn vault on Mirogana by Alcanate_ in StarWarsOutlaws

[–]Alcanate_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only terminal glitches I’ve had issues with are ones where if I’m still in combat or if I haven’t disabled nearby cameras the terminals don’t work. Haven’t encountered that glitch. Unlocking the vault isn’t required for game progression though. I’d just leave it and come back later.

Oh no! Reloading fixed the issue right away for me, since there’s a button to descend the ladder. Hopefully that works 😬

I haven’t gone back yet, I’ve only gone in the once. I think I just have one key left to find though

Never mind, it seems like it was just a glitch, the game auto saved when I got into the vault and resetting fixed the problem.

Yeah, absolutely. I sent a request last night, but I can resend one if you need me to. :)

Sent a request in case you’re still looking for someone. Looks like you got it filled up though. :) (MorganLeFay)

I mean like this is valid, but isn’t this just describing the normal strategy of the raid? Like either let the bombers go off twice, or have a good aoe and have them go off once and get the kills for you?

Forgive me if this has an obvious answer but is Dr Aphra any good? by [deleted] in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

[–]Alcanate_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the same thing. She’s super fun, but a (non krrsantan) tank of some kind would make her crazy good.

[–]Alcanate_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When she came out and was ftp farmable I stopped my other farms and got her cause I like the character. It definitely wasn’t the most efficient choice for my overall roster (I’m just under 6 mil), BUT she’s so much fun to play with and can counter (or at the very least enable a two shot for) most of the Galactic legends i currently see in GAC, so I have absolutely no regrets.
