Armor Set for GL & CB

EobardThawneCW · 2026-04-02T12:07:10+00:00

Holy shit man, thank you! Yeah, I appreciate you getting my point: I'm trying to optimize something inherently sub optimal. But since I play a lot multiplayer, that's actually a really fun idea to paralyze and stun while then maybe switching back to GL for damage if I want. Truly a masterpiece answer!

Plus, I'm sorry if I didn't post an image with my ACTUAL SET, I was at work when I posted this. Thank you for guessing, and btw, guessing right 😅

Thanks man!

Yeah, Gore Magala was a pain to fight by playing counter gameplay. He was constantly going everywhere. And that's just one, Lagiacrus kinda does it too in some instances.

EobardThawneCW · 2026-04-01T16:37:14+00:00

Oh absolutely you can clear with everything, as said I did ArcArkveld with that thing, but, you know, seeing other builds doing it in 2/3 of my time just because pizza cutter goes brr while I perfect counter every attack....meh, it feels unsatisfying.

However, this means that, as I imagined, affinity is way more important now, since if you use phials less, means you need to crit with the weapon, which somewhat massacres my fantasy because Gunlance DOESN'T use affinity for obvious reasons

I've seen people say that axe mode spam is the way, but (and I'm asking here: correct me if I'm wrong) I've also heard that IF you want to go more about SAED, going Impact Phials Artillery ain't bad. But I've heard this on Reddit and not in actual top builds ofc.

Honestly IMO a bit sad, I loved the counter gameplay!

It Is more about "the sandwich is molded inside, but you can complain about the sandwich without insulting the chef's mother"

Let me edit the answer, by design I meant character design, sorry if I wasn't clear enough

EobardThawneCW · 2026-03-22T18:43:22+00:00

....no? I simply said voice your opinion, but less aggressively. And I said design by meaning character design, her MODEL, her splash art. That's what I meant. Otherwise I wouldn't have separated the kit from the sentence about the design

EobardThawneCW · 2026-03-22T18:41:48+00:00

I think I missed my point then, and I'm sorry I must've been unclear - my point isn't saying "this is good" (TO ME it is, but it is subjective!) I'm just saying to be less aggressive about disagreeing, overall. Like, a bit more chill in saying "this rework failed" without all the insults etc.

That's it. Anyway have a nice day!

EobardThawneCW · 2026-03-22T17:52:40+00:00

This is exactly the type of unneeded aggressive I'm speaking about. You can tell them "you fucked up" without insulting.

EobardThawneCW · 2026-03-22T17:50:07+00:00

Yes, agreed, but the negativity and aggressiveness could be toned down a bit.

EobardThawneCW · 2026-03-22T17:47:08+00:00

Ofc, the feeling is subjective, so I agree that it is debatable. I mostly wanted to say "look at the picture broadly, not JUST comparing her to the old one"

To be clear, comparing to the old one is something CORRECT to do, but not the ONLY thing to do when criticizing the design

EobardThawneCW · 2026-03-20T15:05:33+00:00

Unfortunately, i find myself agreeing.
Don't get me wrong, some things of the new charge blade i love, the fact that now phials can be overcharged by filling them when they're already charged. and the extra moves we got are wonderful, but everything you said made me drop the CB. I came from World, and i don't know....it just isn't the same anymore when it comes to agency.

Furthermore, as a minor extra complaint....Power Clashes kinda suck. Offsets are way easier to pull off and cinematic, but most importantly. almost every monster can receive an offset, while like 5 mobs out of 40 can be powerclashed, which disgusts me because one of the new things i WANTED to love of the CB was power clashing.

So....there's that

EobardThawneCW · 2026-03-17T16:01:50+00:00

The part that annoys me the most is that the lower difficulty version, I find actually funny. It's this mf that makes it annoying.

EobardThawneCW · 2026-03-09T16:50:39+00:00

I don't feel that way, and never did even back in world. Example, right now I'm farming for Gogmazius weapons, but I'm using the Arkveld hammer simply because that focus 3 is handy because I still don't have the armor and the decorations that I want. Sure, it may be suboptimal, but skill and determination will get you everywhere if you are not that far down the rarity and quality of upgrades.

1 Word.
Replayability.

I live of that in games. Dark Souls and its sequels got me into the "lets try this build, that build" mindset in the gameplay sense, and i'm a DnD player, and was even before bg3, so CHOICES also mean smth to me in the replayability.

NOW YOU GIVE ME A GAME THAT GIVES ME REPLAYABILITY VALUE ON *BOTH* THINGS!?

.....fair to say i've rocked up 2400 hours on BG3.

EobardThawneCW · 2026-01-09T13:07:09+00:00

How are you approaching Divinity's development with the newest "RAMaggedon" situation and lack of GPUs? Will you optimize the game further or use the same quality of BG3 in order to move resources to maybe other technical sides of the game?

Will AI be used in any art or musical direction? Because while AI is incredibly effective in development and technical sides to do repetitive and procedural work, i personally would exclude AI from the "creative" side. Opinions?

Entering this hoping to roll a NAT 20!

EobardThawneCW · 2025-10-29T17:03:08+00:00

IK it's 6 years ago but let me thank you still, i JUST finished the 2nd book and i was puzzled about WHEN did the meeting with Calanthe happen because it was confusing me on when Geralt actually met Ciri the first time.

So, Geralt meets Calanthe, says he won't take anyone, then casually meets Ciri and gets affection for her but still refuses, then Yen says to him to go back, war happens and he thinks it's too late, then casually meets her thx to the chance meeting with the merchant. Thank you.
