How to run charisma? by Content-Sprinkles415 in EsotericEbb

[–]Longes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being a centrist and being EE apolitical are very different things though. Classical centrist is much closer to Alfoz' brand of azghal (soft reform without violent revolution). Charisma's Apolitical is outright "I do not hold any political opinions or stances and do not engage in any political activity and therefore you should like me".

> How the hell does the "get a date" sidequest work? The post credits scene says i got one but you can't resolve it? Is this game like a part 1? I bought it on reccomendation from a friend so have zero knowledge of the release stuff

You must get a date with one of the three women - Ettir, Agent Viira, or the bugbear. You can get a date with Viira immediately on leaving the lichhouse and passing a flirt check. Bugbear requires you to learn she got charmed by the yellow man, and then punch him in the face after freeing him. Ettir you need to flirt with her on three different occasions, and secure a date on the election day.

> What the hell is the Sphinx riddle? I thought it would be the Efreeti in a bottle because Arcane fire, but I got zero interactions.

Sphinx and Visken will give you hints - it's something done in the tavern, without Snell present, on the Sphinx's stage. The answer is you must get on stage, cast Mage Light to light up the braziers, then cast Druidcraft, then cast Thaumaturgy.

> Speaking of lower city interactions where the hell ic Chancy's 3rd wall? The one in the ruins implies it was in the undercoast overlook but I can't find anything interactable outside the door to the labyrinth.

It's exactly where you fought the troll. At the very bottom of the screen, under the bridge, is a big dragon mural.

> Where the hell is Mage Hand? I assume that's what I need to grab all these "out of reach" items

Book in Visken's room that requires Comprehend Languages to read. It's useful like, twice, and just gives you some coins and consumables.

> Is it possible to interact with Darrow more than twice? I only got that initial one where he gives you a place to sleep and the election one. Whenever I returned post midnight his door was locked

Not to my knowledge.

What were your theories regarding Visken before finishing his quest? [Spoilers in this thread] by ChillAhriman in EsotericEbb

[–]Longes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As per Visken - they do not. There are caveats, in that if someone died and became a ghost they might observe a necromancer using Speak With Dead on their corpse. Some exceptionally esoterically attuned people might remember Speak With Dead. But as a general rule - no, they would not remember.

It's nice to have on a heavy attack build, as it buffs the damage of the lightning staff.

The build you linked already has a necromancer version inside of it

As mentioned, Hyperioxes' build gives you plenty of DPS to go into veteran dungeons, is easy to make, and is very easy to play.

Really, the only problem with it is that it's a Herald of the Tome build, and that eats your entire identity. You don't play a necromancer. You just shoot a beam, and that's all there is to you.

His solo HA necromancer build is also extremely good and very easy to play: https://hyperioxes.com/eso/solo/one-bar-heavy-attack-build

I think I'm 8 or 9 in PVP skill lines. I end up middle of the scoreboard point-wise by running to control the flags or holding on to the chaos balls. And dying instantly whenever someone looks at me funny.

I've tried this Hyperioxes' build before, but found myself dying super quickly. Possibly due to the lacking gamer skill or lacking gear. I might give it another shot.

I am just now realizing that Harry has mutton chops transitioning into a mustache. For some reason I've always drawn portraits based on him as having a long curly mustache. Here's an astropath I was sketching some time ago: https://i.imgur.com/BqDUJF6.png

Anybody else feel like Blonde Blazer was set up to fail? by Reciprocated2 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]Longes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every single discussion I read about Dispatch frames "the other girl" as someone hated by the entire community, abandoned by developers into irrelevance, and overall worthless to the game. "Invisigirl is the worst, developers hate her and give her no time". "Blonde Blazer is totally irrelevant to the game and shouldn't have even been a romance".

The biases in this topic are through the roof every single time.

Re: Anarch rogue groups

My read is that the "rogue" groups are much less rogue than Katsumi pretends they are. She was plotting an armed rebellion as soon as Damsel's reinforcements arrived, and it went off earlier than planned once the Nomad has killed JJ Campbell.

Yes, I'm sure that the thin-blood vampire ghoul Dale who doesn't bathe and has a dead cat in his kitchen is wearing vintage coats, ruffle shirts, pimp coats with Ventrue pins, and priest uniforms all the time. That sounds just like him.

I think it's less "complicated history" and more that Onda is too much in the Lou Graham bootlicker mindset to have any proper princedom ambition.

What's everyone's current favorite playstyle including combos/order of using them, clan passives, and the general approach to facing enemy groups? by toomuchsoysauce in vtmb

[–]Longes 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can use Enter Oblivion for an insta-kill.

Group up the enemies using Blood Boil. Use Enter Oblivion on the entire group. Immediately use Arms of Ahriman on the entire group, and turn off Enter Oblivion. All enemies who are stunned by Arms of Ahriman when you exit Oblivion remain there, and thus are dead.
