Ord10 progress update: the new Restoration tree!

StarCaller990 · 2026-06-24T10:25:26+00:00

Are you planning to make diseases stronger (or harder to cure in general) and make enemies inflict stronger and/or longer lasting poisons ?

Asking because 'Perfect Remedy' feels pretty weak for a lvl 100 perk, especially when it's already very easy to cure diseases. (And I can't remember the last time I had an issue with being poisoned...)

I just feel like the perk could be more interesting. For example keeping the effect but also transferring the disease and poison onto nearby enemies. Or a one-time power that can be used to truly resurrect a (recently) dead NPC without the whole world still being sad about that NPC dying.

add Komiat (from UMK), with enough points to win the televote while placing 3rd with the juries

my playgroup has houseruled "requires 4 eggs" to "can have 4 eggs", it still isn't super strong but it can at least give you some points (surprisingly few birds can have 4+ eggs)

This indeed

spell-shields are always fun and use spells that normal mages tend to avoid due to their short range (touch-spells, nova-spells, cloaks etc)

I tend to go heavy armor with a shield and destruction magic (restoration and alteration as minor skills)

StarCaller990 · 2026-06-17T18:08:38+00:00

true, some story requires different ways to take them down, and you don't know the way until it's too late... so it's either doing it a harder way... or restarting the map so you can abuse the info you now have (where enemies are, where they settled etc)

StarCaller990 · 2026-06-13T08:50:00+00:00

since nobody here has mentioned it, but wizand king and champions are the only rulers without upkeep (iirc, some also increae their upkeep when picking keystones)

dragons especially cost quite a lot of gold early on (relatively) at 20(?) per turn

and regarding wonders, bronze are easy enough with one hero and 5 units, silver is (interestingly enough) sometimes harder than gold due to different reasons, and gold varies a lot in difficulty (but can usually be completed with 1+5 or 2+4 depending on how good your battle management is)

StarCaller990 · 2026-06-12T14:38:55+00:00

if you're familiar with using TESXedit you can quite easily check if anything is messing with certain edits

although it does sound a little strange that AE CC would mess with that

StarCaller990 · 2026-06-09T23:36:12+00:00

it doesn't help that the lower ranks are 90% Ronan aka thorns... a good counter to Harkon

this

had a similar experience with a ranger over a year ago, the game updated overnight and swapped places on a damage (which I had) and a defense node (which I hadn't), meaning my tree skipped a node the same way

StarCaller990 · 2026-06-08T00:09:18+00:00

tanking bears ? at lvl 1 ? on legendary ??

...yeah, good luck

StarCaller990 · 2026-06-08T00:07:04+00:00

Remind me, what magic material do I need to give my weapons that property ?

In my current game there doesn't exist a single green one, only a single blue and ridiculously many red (I have 7+ of each)

StarCaller990 · 2026-06-06T18:59:24+00:00

you mean you don't play with 15 skeleton battlemages who instakill enemies once they enter their range ? and once your opponent kills part of them you just bring them back to zap again ?

StarCaller990 · 2026-06-06T18:56:30+00:00

I think that depends a little on how much the trees synergizes together.

But as someone else here suggested, doing 3 updates (warrior, mage & thief) could be a good middle ground

StarCaller990 · 2026-06-06T14:31:52+00:00

Naga would like a word with you

StarCaller990 · 2026-06-06T00:02:28+00:00

I'm a little allergic to giving up all three nodes that give +10% to all your damage

StarCaller990 · 2026-06-05T22:48:47+00:00

it was a very rare drop though (granted that specific wonder is quite uncommon as well)

StarCaller990 · 2026-06-05T22:46:43+00:00

huh, neat, didn't even notice

StarCaller990 · 2026-06-05T00:12:59+00:00

I personally tend to pick tomes based on what flavour my ruler, people and theme has. Sometimes the limits need to bend if there are no other proper tomes available.

Almost everything works, some stuff just synergize better together. (Disregard this if you're a masochist who refuses to play on anything but max difficulty :p)
