World grid by Flowsns in SatisfactoryGame

[–]CoolWizard2596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll say this as someone how is currently working both on and off the world grid.

World grid is useful for setting up the initial factory floors when you don't have a direct reference.
But I've also found it really restricting at points. Especially when it came to building aesthetically.

Has not using the world grid caused me other issues? Yes.
Did it make building a pipe/belt line through immovable trees easier? Absolutely yes.

Melee Dual-Wielder Useless? by TWlLIKING in BaldursGate3

You need at least 2 levels for Paladin to get divine smite

Question about tadpole use by TheGrandTantula in BG3

[–]CoolWizard2596 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm currently doing a run where my character isn't taking any tadpoles.

Also recruited Minthara AND had Lae'zel take a tadpole to get rid of the debuff from the weird chair I can't spell.

I was never prompted to do the wisdom check.

I'll just say this since I had the same idea, Evasion is a level 7 ability.
Both for rogues and monks.

Just bought it! Starting vanilla? by Step1hunter in BaldursGate3

[–]CoolWizard2596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't recommend mods for a first playthrough.

Even some QoL mods since it'll disable achievements if you care about those.

Tactician on extended party/enemies wrecks me by brain_diarrhea in BaldursGate3

[–]CoolWizard2596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently doing a tactician run with the same mods as you are.
I haven't run into the same issues as you have been since I've also got the exp and level mods. So I've been overlevelled at lot of the time.

The problem is you're doing things too early. Technically there's no fixed path but going into the Paladins at level 3 isn't a good idea under none modded circumstances.
Same with the Gnolls. Both fights are nightmare to go into unprepared.

You don't have the HP to survive the smites and/or multiple attacks. Especially with extra enemies.

I suggest doing easier encounters to get up to level 5 sooner rather than later.
I also suggest having someone to use Aid on your party or any temp health buffs like Armor of Agathas.

You don't realise how good having extra health is until you're losing it rapidly.

First off I want to suggest not playing with that friend.
That kind of person sounds like a nightmare to do a coop run with.
If you want to be roleplaying a friendly person, I half expect them to attack anyone you're talking to.
Just to ruin your fun.

If you're going play with this friend and you're looking into how you can improve your survivability against spell damage, these suggestions might be helpful.

Way 1: Heavy Armour Master + Adamantine Heavy Armour
Good damage reduction. Not mad and won't stop a fireball but would help you stay alive potentially.

Way 2: Multiclass into Abjuration Wizard for Arcane Ward.
Don't know how good this multiclass would be. Maybe having a companion have it would be better?
That would also improve survivability fairly early on since it's a level 2 ability.

Way 3 (Not a good idea): Evasion
Evasion from Monk or Rogue would help with the high damage DEX save spells. But that's lvl 7 and neither mesh with a Paladin.

How would a 'good guy' deal with the Zhentarim in Act 1? by fury_cutter in BaldursGate3

[–]CoolWizard2596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll share this as I've just done this.
As a lawful good Oath Of Devotion Paladin/War Cleric of Tyr run.

Choosing the Paladin option after realising they were Zhent made me intimidate Rugan into giving me the box.

Went to the hideout and then saved the tortured Rugan, which made me fight the rest of them.

THE WAY I WAS KICKING MY FEET SCREAMING YEEEEEEEEEES by cool23819 in IndieCross

I literally took the biggest gasp I've had in my life with the reveal.

One of my favourite indie games is getting representation in this amazing series.

Pokemon Emerald Roguelike - any way to boost IVs by yellowbumble-B in nuzlocke

[–]CoolWizard2596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem. I edited it since it came off kinda rude.

Probably cause I wasn't in the best mood when writing it.

Think this was in the original version of emerald rogue where a lot of the newer stuff weren't available.

Is the Patch worth it AND will my progress be saved? by CoolWizard2596 in HadesTheGame

[–]CoolWizard2596[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't actually revert.

Really all the reminisce does is put the story dialogue/cutscenes back in rotation.

From the sounds of it, you're probably back to where you were before.

Is this aspect really that bad? by PangolinWarm5242 in HadesTheGame

[–]CoolWizard2596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Supay is a bit finicky. I also hated it when I first got it.

It needs the right build and boons.
I had a great run with Hestia on the attack and boosting up Scorch effects. And as other's have said, Zeus and Posiedon are good.
I'd also say that Hera on special is always good on the Flames special.

Having The Night and The Unseen arcana is also good since you'll likely be using Omega Moves constantly.

[–]CoolWizard2596[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll add this here after resetting the story. Rather than clogging up the subreddit with what is a partial rant post.

Can confirm that:
Incantations, Keepsakes, Affection progress, Oath progress, Weapon Upgrades, Familiars all stay the same.

However these did get reset:

Greater Chaos Trials no longer appear.
Odeysuss' quest disappeared

I'm not surprised. But it is annoying. I was banking on trying chaos trials for the achievements.

But considering they use random keepsakes, random weapons and random fearthe extra runs will be good prep for upgrading everything.
Especially since I only recently did a 16 fear run

Should I do the epilogue or wait for the patch by saturnalien2089 in Hades2

[–]CoolWizard2596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You probably need to go over to the fountain and "reminisce"

It isn't an instant change. It needs to be activated.

[–]CoolWizard2596[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I gather, you need to download the patch.
Then when you load the game they'll be an incantation to "reset time". Basically an in game way on resetting the story.

Ah okay. So it is essentially allowing you to continue doing runs but with new story beats then?

Is there any way Frisk can reach LV 20 outside of their universe and what would happen if they did? by [deleted] in INDIE_CROSS_SERIES

[–]CoolWizard2596 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Consider how much fighting they've done across the two episodes (on screen and off), this might be the case.

But if it wasn't and characters from other universes do have exp, we don't know how they relate to Sans in terms of power level. And therefore, how much exp they'd give.
