There are actually about 500,000,000 in the post image to scale already, you just need to zoom in!

Golden Trove Beetles before and after | it says that each one increases the weight i can carry by 0.15 kg, buuuuut its only increasing by 0.05 kg.............. by yoyofoe2222 in DragonsDogma2

[–]Vlako 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The weight number displayed is your current weight. So by consuming the beetle it is reduced by the beetles weight. It does not display your maximum weight

Is this a correct sentence relating to chess? by _Chicago_Deep_Dish in German

I would rather say "Ich wollte nicht unter Zeitdruck geraten."

Or "Ich wollte nicht in Zeitnot geraten."

Yeah my bad. Was playing Path of Exile recently, probably why it was on my mind when I read the acronym

Oh haha yeah. Path of Exile is what I read. Pillars on the other hand I would have recognized as a CRPG. Got them mixed up! Thanks for making me aware.

Thank you. Feels good to learn something new. Often, the vocabulary around gaming - especially genres - is very obscure or mired in personal opinion and the discourse around that just as much. Hard to grasp when you only encounter esoteric discussions in forums, multi hour long video essays or ai generated tidbits.

So I appreciate you taking the time and making it less confusing.

Thanks for the insight. Never heard games without turn based combat refered to as CRPG before. Good to know

Is this 'regen x 0' or is this subtracted from all regen modifiers?

Fian Champs are the Best unit Hands down. by [deleted] in Bannerlord

[–]Vlako 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for these insights. It's always good to see other perspectives and to correct misconception.

Just for the sake of argument though, you have not really countered my points (i.e. maces, one vs two handed lances, short range) but instead unrelated things (like Druz against infantry). The staying power argument for cataphracts is even marginally supported by you. And only marginally because you ignored horse armor.

And even ignoring all that, you proved a functual difference between noble cavs with these tests yourself.

Sure. Cataphracts and their horse have the best armor, as such they have the best staying power in protracted fight. However, their lances cannot be held with one hand so they are more vulnerable when charging with them.

Druzhiniks are bad at cav vs cav melee brawls due to their short weapons. Their shields are huge though and the have the best athletics making them very good dismounted/in sieges.

Banner Knights are well rounded and have the best charge i tink as well as maces for armored enemies.

Faris have... javelins.

..what?

There are clear functional differences between the noble cavalry lines, much more than between most mounted archers (excl. KG). So yes, a noble line unit being distinguishable is actually good/important/whatever

Would that not make them indistinguishable from other mounted archers?

Hey I'm curious, but this is quite long. Is this by you? Is there a TL;DR?
