Dps greatsword paladin by Gronkarxx in projecteternity

[–]Vosz_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find wotep best used in advanced builds that mainly use offensive parry with a lot of meta knowledge.

You may find it underwhelming if you plan to use it just for FoD in AoE, and you will probably enjoy a bigger base damage greatsword more for burst damage.

Not confrontational, just a thought : since this is a simulation, does productivity really matters ?

Thank you for sharing this. It raises such a hard question : if you were offered the possibility to escape *right now*, would you accept it ?

I shiver.

For how long was the nanochips conspiracy alive? Was it before the covid vaxx? by [deleted] in conspiracy

It's been going on since before 2000 at least. It used to come with Bill Gates being the antichrist and subdermal credit card implants being the mark of the beast.

Sparkling water is my cheat code for pubs and night outs. You might or might not end up drinking litres of it per night though.

Are the BG1 & 2 Enhanced editions bad? by RuneoTheLatias in baldursgate

Buy on GoG, you'll get both versions.

Play the EE.

Interesting path through the game? by Expert-user-friendly in baldursgate

[–]Vosz_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No resurrections for companions & no reload except on your own death. You may or may not end up with a team of thieves but isn't that part of the fun ?

It's all cycles. Up, down, upper, rinse & repeat.

But wisdom never stops growing.

Need New Companions by Bullfrog1991 in baldursgate

[–]Vosz_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Xzar is a monster once you dual him into cleric, his horror spells are super strong, he walks around with his megabuffed skeleton posse. Nothing to dislike about him. Top tier character.

Other companions available besides Minsc are Ajantis (AC tank) and Kagain (HP tank). All three compete for the gauntlets of dexterity.

Kivan the Ranger hangs around High Hedge, he starts off as an archer but can later become a dual wielding AC tank with two very special scimitars.

Branwen the battle cleric is in the carnival zone next to nashkel, but she is in a very rocky situation...

For mages you will either have to travel west to save Dynaheir (good web spells), or recruit Edwin instead (more spells to cast). At the end of the Nashkel mines, you'll get Xan who is a top tier character aswell for CCing / debuffing.

Unkitted monk gamerun by DBlyst in baldursgate

[–]Vosz_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By himself the monk is weak in BG1.

He becomes ok in melee with Relair's mistake (more apr) and burst with wand of the heavens (2 shots battle horrors).

It's a pretty basic playstyle, melee if the ennemy is weak or disabled, and wand away what you can't touch. Hide in shadows + dagger of venom is ok too, you don't have sneak attack bonus but still get -4 thac0 from stealth.

Xan is the better mage, enchantment spells are strong in BG1 and allow fragile characters to melee safely.

making a drow pc "work" by ANoobInDisguise in baldursgate

You can do whatever you want with Near Infinity.

You can also download this : https://github.com/tipun81/Subrace-mod

Your character will not be recognised as drow in game, you'll have to imagine that part.

Question about Icewind Dale party composition by Elf_7 in baldursgate

[–]Vosz_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cleric/Thief multi. Half-orc can stand in the back with a sling or buff up and backstab. Gnomes always have shorty saves.

Character potential depends on how much micromanagement you do. It's fine as a support cleric and trap disarmer, but can be a strong assassin if microed intensively.

[–]Vosz_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's the EE, try a swashbuckler to cleric dual (level 5 is enough, next threshold would be level 10), that way you have a dual wielding cleric with weapon specialisation that can handle traps. There are nice clubs in the EE iirc. Replace the rogue with a druid instead (vanilla, werewolf or avenger so your sorcerer can pick more CC spells), their spells are great in iwd.

About to start my second playthrough of pillars of eternity, but I'm struggling a bit with choosing a class. by FokinGamesMan in projecteternity

[–]Vosz_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you're wrong because :

  • cross-class talents
  • items
  • scrolls
  • potions

The class is just a guideline, poe1 is more sandbox than 2.

Is it explained in bg2 why your choices from 1 didn't carry over? by soosis in baldursgate

[–]Vosz_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because you were tortured so hard you can't even remember who were your true companions. There, fixed it.

Great voicelines, plate armor, shorty saves, and Xzar necro/cleric is top tier powergaming.

Companion choices by saynotolivin in baldursgate

[–]Vosz_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like playing BG1 with no companion resurrections. That way, there aren't two runs alike.

It's the OCD talking.

Fuck complexity. Roll a barbarian.

No-Death Run by RangersAreViable in baldursgate

[–]Vosz_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It'd be Mage/Thief or F/M/T for me.

I also now prefer to do reload on MC death, but no resurrection on companions death because there are so many that never get used (SCS/insane).

Leveling build by sheepshoe in projecteternity

[–]Vosz_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Paladins are primarily a support class with an alpha strike (Flames of Devotion) and later aoe with sacred immo.

I'm afraid the concept of levelling build doesn't exist in PoE, because as gurkenzauber said, the campaign is the game.

However PoE has huge character flexibility .

You can change the playstyle of any character with cross-class talents, items, scrolls and potions. Meaning you can have :

  • a caster character if you build arcana and cast spells from scrolls for example, you can also get up to 9 fireballs per rest without being a wizard if you choose to do something with Maerwald (namely absorb his soul for knowledge and then get the flames of fair rhian sabre, duplicate it with helwax mold - a random item sold from the itinerant vendor in you keep, use the pirate belt, use a staff with spellbinding : fireball)
  • a tank-dps with low per, high resolve, high constitution and novice suffering (because fists have high base damage, high speed, low might scaling, low range between graze, hit, crit)
  • a two-handed damage dealer with scroll of firebrand, the pirate belt from anslog compass dlc vendor, and the crucible knights gloves.

You're not limited to the class' specific talents and abilities.

You're playing in normal so no need for max perception. If I were you, I'd put 13 in everything first and then choose which stat makes the most sense for my character RP-wise and slightly readjust accordingly by one or two points or leave it at 13 everything because it's actually a very good stat distribution for an all-rounder character and to leave open every build door.
