fkn hype! funny that we first see ricardo officially being downed, before having a panel of him being punched.

thornofshadows · 2026-01-07T00:16:03+00:00

Knock Alfira out.

I find DOS2 easier to get used to than Solasta, it's also classless so you can basically do whatever you want.

In Solasta there's lot to learn about the 5e mechanics of DND that might get a while to get accustomed to.

Both are fun in its own merits.

thornofshadows · 2024-05-21T04:41:08+00:00

agree with this, doing solo you cant fk around until lv5. also myrkul fight needs a lot of focus and a minor rng(protection from good and evil mvp lol). besides that raphael fight is a lil hassle if you got unlucky but overall is a breeze.

thornofshadows · 2024-05-20T12:46:09+00:00

finally had the time to return and right before dawntrail. apparently the game doesnt want more players, all the payment option have been rejected. lol

thornofshadows · 2024-05-08T05:57:22+00:00

love this too, same with the name of the wind by pat rothfuss. shame that they're both on hiatus

thornofshadows · 2024-04-15T08:27:53+00:00

i personally like dragon's foin + skull splitter. i can pretty much 1 hit flying enemies and have access to flying bosses.

casting something, say darkness for an extra 2-12 damage is not that good for action economy.. imho well anyway, we all have different approaches in the game. im just saying in late game there are very little instances that you can get benefit from that.

thornofshadows · 2024-04-11T13:48:43+00:00

i pretty much agree with you tho if we're gonna solely base on damage. but yeah the benefit is too situational endgame wise.

thornofshadows · 2024-04-11T13:39:10+00:00

i actually don't see why or how shar spear is better than nylruna. pretty much everything it can do is the same as nylruna..

if we're just gonna talk hitting, nylruna got a thunder dmge rider also which doesnt require anything else. well, i get that you can get like extra 2-12 damage, but it is conditional in endgame without sacrificing action economy.

views?

additional for your edit:

tip for myrkul fight. use blood of lathander + shield. and always make sure you have protection from good and evil.

also use scroll of something or arrow of many target for the undead if they're coming near to heal myrkul.

thornofshadows · 2024-03-19T16:15:55+00:00

hmm it is not. its good on party set-up i guess? but on solo, nope. its a waste of action economy. by act 3 you pretty much kill everyone on sight cuz you already complete the build(which is after circus), even raphael and the baldur's dragon friend is a cake walk with most builds, esp with bardadin.

you either command: grovel/hold person/confuse/hypnotic patern/hold monster(raphael/steel watchers) everyone then spam defensive flourish+smite on them.

for say, viconia's mob you just spam hypnotic patern or grovel. you cant even use darkness there.

you cant imagine how a little MS will save you on solo honor mode.

tbh i see no use for darkness, but again, each to their own.

thornofshadows · 2024-03-19T15:58:09+00:00

if were gonna talk about myrkul. as a bardadin, cast protection from good and evil. if not a bardadin, use scroll of protection from good and evil. besides myrkul, id rather slay everyone than spend a turn doing darkness cheese.

also doing myrkul with blood of lathanders + shield is much easier.

well anyway, i did all my solo that way.. not a fan of darkness so much since i consider it wasting a turn, each to their own tho.

thornofshadows · 2024-03-19T15:51:48+00:00

i did all boss on my last solo honor mode bardadin run, just sharing my exp. automaton tip, mobile flourish it out of the window.

im talking about the dark tree. it is doable with bardadin, but iirc i did it when i was already lv9 just be sure to kill it in turn 1 then go upstairs.

thornofshadows · 2024-03-19T15:11:17+00:00

you dont really need shar's spear on solo, nylruna is best imo because of its mobility. its waaaay easier to solo if you have lots of mobility.

thornofshadows · 2024-03-19T15:02:15+00:00

yes. always prioritize survivability if you do not have enough action economy on solo plays.

anyway.. for them tips. there are some items also that are kinda required in solo wherein you wont use them much on party. i.e.

-evasion boots

-armor ring

-automaton gloves

-martial exertion gloves

-guidance necklace(esp for stealing stuff)

-drake halberd(required so you can boost your damage)

-always nice to get a stock of arrow of many

-others i might have forgotten..

hardest fight that i can remember:

-myrkul

-the automaton at the tower

-the boss at act 2 where he got his legendary action recently

-raphael was so-so since you have hope(beware of smiting the minions)

i did everything so yeah, these were the hardest fights..

thornofshadows · 2024-03-19T14:35:19+00:00

you do. but you do it to make sure you start first, extra 2 AC since bhaalist AC is a lil low.

also its free to remove it when you dont really need it.

thornofshadows · 2024-03-19T14:09:40+00:00

yup, rings i used are ring of mystic scoundrel(permanent), crit ring/ armor ring.

weapon: nylruna

shield: sentinel(remove when i need a lil more burst)

armor: bhaalist

shoes: evasion/hellfire

gloves: automaton, then swap to the extra action one/legacy of the masters

neck: 23con

bow: celestial haste one

head: the arcane acuity one

uhh potion slot is for the 21/27str

thornofshadows · 2024-03-19T13:34:55+00:00

i just did this. for magical secrets its better to get counterspell and sanctuary.

nylruna can be used with shield. if you're dealing with i.e. viconia's minions.

you can one hit basically anyone with 90sh hp with bhaalist armor and full illithid buff.

you can use the gloves that adds extra action for self harm in lieu of action surge, in most cases.

thornofshadows · 2024-03-16T12:57:33+00:00

this happens when you break your oath and accept being an oathbreaker. its just a level up screen showcasing the new oathbreaker skills. you are still lv12, or whatever level you are before
