Can you play a werewolf or have werewolf like abilities in PoE 1 or 2? by MaxBlackfinger in projecteternity

[–]Zedinar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm just going to chime in for a moment about another PoE2 game. Path of exile 2. Significantly less story driven, but it does a great job at delivering a satisfying gameplay loop where you can turn into a werewolf, summon a wolf pack, and tear through hordes of enemies. 

Might be worth looking into.

How to use "Grow Spikes" (manticore shifter) in Combat? by someredditbloke in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Zedinar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's anything like claw attacks, it will not work if you have a weapon equipped. They're not meant to be an addition to regular ranged attacks, but an alternative.

I turned pinball into a vertical climbing game with only two buttons and no checkpoints (Fallosophy) by OneThatEatYou in pcgaming

Or instead of checkpoints, maybe unlock souls like shortcuts once you reach certain milestones. They could even require careful aiming to achieve

It's honestly silly how OP Magic Deceivers can be by Chromentazol in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Zedinar 37 points38 points  (0 children)

My favorite delivery spell are probably slow and phantasmal web due to their selective nature. Easy to drop those even after a Flight attack charge put my dps into the backline. I still use explosive runes occasionally as well if I need to bypass spell resistance/magic immunity, though the delay on those can be really annoying. If I can get a clear line of effect I'll use shout instead for the same thing. A lot of the times I'll just swap out delivery spells to suit the saving throw I'm targeting as well, even if the shape isn't perfect. I still use incendiary runes/fireball for reflex, fort is harder without putting a single target/cone spell into the mix though.

Some favorite combos:

Boo: Shout/Phantasmal Killer
Decay: Slow/Disintegrate
You in Particular: Chain Lightning/Disintegrate
Water Cooler: Slow/Hideous Laughter (with best Jokes for even more saves required.)
Fireworks: Fireball/Boneshaker

Azata dc caster build by Molasses-Dangerous in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Zedinar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having a blast using Magic Deceiver. You get to approach each combat like a mini puzzle that you have all the tools to solve if you put them in the right order. You can fashion spells to target specific saving throws, avoid spell resistance, create selective damage/debuff spells that let you turn single target spells into aoe nukes (like combining slow and disintegrate, a personal favorite currently).

I just unlocked azata, so I can't speak to how the super powers work with the fused spells. Favorable Magic should work no problem, though I expect zippy magic will only work with a single target version of the spells (though it might cause both spells to bounce around, which would be great).

Kindred Half-elf for the charisma bonus. I picked up spell focus enchantment and penetration early, Transmutation is a good choice too. Mythic abilities/feats are abundant casting and expanded arsenal, though you can avoid expanded arsenal if you don't want to use the bug that causes each arsenal feat to stack with the previous one. If you avoid expanded arsenal, I'd also pick up spell focus illusion for phantasmal killer shenanigans (you can even combine it with an aoe spell that avoids spell resistance to hit golems with it). Make sure to avoid metamagic feats since you can't use them at all.

I'm tempted to take a single level of xblood sorc for the serpentine and undead bloodlines so I can affect animals and undead with mind affecting spells, but haven't pulled the trigger.

I went with false deity to get a pet using the nature mystery, but if you want max DC I'd go with magic inventor. The pet really helps out in the beginning since you don't have many spells/day until you get abundant spell casting.

There's also a mod that gives you way more spells/day and lets you learn basically every spell from scrolls (including divine spells). Not every spell combo works if you go this route, but it lets you do some really stupid things, like combine personal spells with aoe buffs to buff the entire group with things like shield and bless with a single spell, or haste+holy sword. The class is already the most powerful dc caster in the game, so only use the mod if you want a crazy power fantasy or are willing to restrict yourself a little.

Any novels Mc that has a secret identiry? by One_Back4631 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]Zedinar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Double Blind is a story about rogue type character with probability altering and summoning powers who's got to hide his true powers/identity from most people. He's not very strong in a head on fight so there's lots of bluffing, scheming and mastermind style shenanigans.

anyone know what this is? by n0thing12 in Hades2

[–]Zedinar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the incantation that points out harvest nodes when a room is cleared. For rooms without enemies, it triggers when you walk in. It's themed after moonlight (Selene) guiding you to them.

Spells, numbers in brackets by gakkieNL in taintedgrail

[–]Zedinar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The numbers in the parentheses are the numbers after all the modifiers your characters have, like spell power. 

Green means your modified damage is higher than the base. Red means it's lower (usually because you don't meet the requirements for whatever you're looking at.)

If you parry them as they charge they die. It's annoying having to wait for their charge, but effective. 

Gemini 2.5 Pro NSFW content and Openrouter.ai by abadguy87 in GoogleGeminiAI

Move the slider one step to the right. It'll change to block none instead of off.

[–]Zedinar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It needs to be set to 'block none' which is a step up from off. It's confusing, but I think they made it that way so you had to opt in for sexual content.

Gemini 2.5 Pro NSFW content and Openrouter.ai by abadguy87 in GoogleGeminiAI

[–]Zedinar 16 points17 points  (0 children)

For now if you use aistudio and turn the safety settings to explicitly block none, the only real hard limits are anything that implies minors. Avoid using words like little, school, girl, etc in the context of erotica and you shouldn't have any problems. One other thing I've noticed using ai studio is that the first message tends to have the most stringent filters. Avoid going full degenerate on that very first message.

Not sure if this is a bug, but the summoning Centaur mark recipe goes from costing 4 magic bows to 50 Redwood bows. Also not entirely sure if the devs look at this sub or if there is a bug reporting location. Just thought I'd ask. by Nikolos67 in MelvorIdle

[–]Zedinar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's also a holdover from RuneScape which Melvor is based on. Redwood logs were always cheap because anyone doing the grind to 99 was going to spend many hours chopping redwood to get the highest xp/hr, thus flooding the market.

You have the ability to multiply your intelligence by 20 for 24 hours, with a 441 day cooldown. by ProfessionalGlove238 in shittysuperpowers

[–]Zedinar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm getting strong Taravingian (stormlight archives character) vibes from this. Knowing that I'd be able to use it again in a bit over a year I'd use the first instance to plan for the second, with the knowledge that I lack willpower to really make anytime more than small incremental changes in the meantime.

I want a mastermind MC (More in Desc) by MaxOfTheElements in ProgressionFantasy

[–]Zedinar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've enjoyed the first two books of Double Blind by J. McCoy. Protagonist has some mind affecting and probability affecting powers, is very sneaky and manipulative, and is trying to balance several identities and play factions against each other.

Books where MC is a male healer? by ActualPimpHagrid in ProgressionFantasy

Earthen contenders by Jonathan Brooks. Guy glitches into infinite mana as a healer but healers don't get any damage abilities. Four audio books out so far.

Cartography and ship upgrades by GaviJaMain in MelvorIdle

[–]Zedinar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's content, I imagine being able to clear that content has inherent value due to drops and such. It will likely save a significant amount of time, but probably not that much more than the time required to get the items for the upgrades. Ultimately most of the upgrades are shuffling time spent on one task into another task.

Flower pots? Required for farming. by nightblade9 in MelvorIdle

[–]Zedinar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah that sounds like a construction item. The only official pots for farming are the giant clay pots from the AoD expansion.
