  1. A detailed map of the fallout in Sweden that year... ...and they looked so radiant that year I'm sure night clubs everywhere would've have loved "glowberries" to put in the ****tails in those dimly lit locales

  3. Zoria, a cRPG being made by a 3-person Romanian team, has just launched a Kickstarter campaign. They're only asking for around $33,000, just to polish up their game which is 80% complete. I've backed it, and figured I'd post it here for any of you who may be interested: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ansharpublishing/zoria-age-of-shattering

  6. For fun I just started the Inevitable Excess DLC and created a level 20 Gold Dragon character. Stats are naked, without buffs and a regular +5 Fauchard. Buff properly, debuff enemies, activate Perfect Strike and Dimensional Strike and whatever he's pointed at will certainly feel enough blunt trauma to run back home to mommy and cry, and if it for some reason doesn't, there's still his ability to cast True Strike at will. I was too lazy to make more than one screenshot, he also has Shatter Defenses and Cleaving Finish and can activate all sorts of weapon enhancements through his arcane pool (also has Archmage Armor). Grave Singer would yield x5 critical hits and would probably be the better weapon for the character. Probably not exactly what Owlcat had in mind when they designed the Gold Dragon mythic path, but, like, whatever. Edit: Fun Exploit of the Day: If you get any item that grants your character spells, you can apply metamagic to them. If you then remove the item in question, the regular versions will disappear. The metamagic'ed versions will remain. You know, just in case you ever wanted Ember or your Oracle MC to have Chain Lightning.

  7. Yeah, it is a nice setup indeed. With the Helm of the White Void and some ACC gear like Ring of the Marksman, gloves etc. even the phantom has respectable accuracy. The Wizard can ramp that up with Eldritch Aim + WoD and then Citzal's Martial Power ot really nice levels. I like that this is an effective setup for a high level wizard that needs very little micro after the initial phase of combat and can even be done by AI easily without making a mess. Yes, Taste of the Hunt with (melee) AoE weapons is indeed very good and fun. The healing only procs for the initial target, but the very strong DoT gets applied to all enemies on the AoE (you hit). Due to it being PL2 it has good scaling, too, but I still struggle a bit with accuracy because Martial Power ia no option. --- Also Spiritshift with a Sorcerer can be cool if you use Wall of Draining and all the self buffs + later Zandethu's Draconic Fury (spell from unique grimoire). Lots of lashes, terrify and great defense. And long lasting shifts as well. Fassina has a cat form if I'm not mistaken so the active speed buff of the shifted cat can be prolonged, too.

  8. Bulls eye! https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-63039191 "Dart's camera returned an image per second, right up to the moment of impact with the target - a 160m-wide object called Dimorphos."

  11. According to Der Spiegel, CIA warned Germany about possible strikes on the pipes several weeks ago. Also, unidentified drones spotted around Norwegian oil and gas infrastructure. Perhaps Russia has started a scorched-sea policy. @Gorgon: I'm sort of becoming interested in what you've been about to say.

  12. I think it happens in Act V and he leads the army, but it has been close to a year since I played the main campaign so I don't remember the specifics. Should be more of a challenge than some army without a general though. Edit: Looks like Owlcat did an AMA with the redditors, who may or may not be replicants. Highlights are that the EE isn't introducing any new spells or abilities and that they're considering stuff to make armor tanks more competitive (but not in the EE).

  13. Sadly, although quite a few would-be newcomers are looking to make cRPGs, not that many are RTwP. The RTwP games I know of are: Black Geyser (already released); Alaloth (now in Steam EA); and Dark Envoy (for 2023 from the guys who made Tower of Time). For TB cRPGs (not an exhaustive list; only the ones I'm following): Solasta (awaiting its 3rd DLC); and Vendir and Zoria (both scheduled for 2023 releases).

  14. Only the attack on the target that have proc the echoe, not the whole symbol ! But for other AoE spells like Fireball, the full fireball is repeated. By the way, a Priest of Magran - Evoker have 30% (Evocation), 10% (Echoes of Faith) and 5% (Vithrack) chance to repeat the wizard'spells from the Priest tree. With the Ray of Fire, only the proc on target is repeated (in reality the beam is launched twice), the flame shield cause 2 reliatations, and Torrent of Flame is launched twice (or more if the repeated spell is echoed too?) My Seraphen-Test (with the 100% chance to echo cipher's spells prolonged) have not chain-spell but maybe I didnt try the good spell! Edit : With 100% chance to echo spells, Amplified Wave proc 4 times ( Vague Amplifiée in the combat log). I dont know why for the moment. Mind Lance proc only 2 times, so no chain-spell casting with %chance to echo in any case.

  15. Having good fun with Legend and the possible exploits you can come up with requires playing through the game normally. The metamagic exploit also works with mythic path spells in merged spellbooks, so in theory if you just slap Favorite Metamagic: Extend and Bolster on your Sorcerer, you could fill your spellbook with many of the Lich spells you get up until you switch to Legend, and they'd, well, still be in there. Lich Sorc/DD/EK to level 20 and then round out with something else that does decent melee oomph. Add 11 levels of Paladin for the supreme lolz of a Paladin casting Lich spells while killing things left and right with Grave Singer.

  16. At least here in the Nordics, a well-known professor of Russian resource and energy policy has come out and said that "Everybody knows it's Russia". He regards it as one additional sign of escalation and further evidence of how Russia has weaponized all infrastructure it has at its disposal.

  18. Meanwhile in Sovietistan my mum had to do a business trip to Gomel (200 km away from Chornobyl) in the last days of April, quiet word-of-mouth was that it's better not to pick mushrooms that summer and fall, everyone with sons eligible for drafting were madly bribing them out of being sent there, but no official, state-sanctioned bans or even warnings whatsoever, because there literally cannot be any problems in soviet paradise, right? ...**** you, Russia.

  19. The combinason between Citazl's Lance and Taste of the Hunt is very nice for a Sorcerer: In first, the AoE from the weapon hit also the main target (Main Pierce damage in first line and AoE crush damage in third line, same target), and in second the 57.8 damage over 20s from Taste of the Hunt is in reality 24 damage per 3s tick for 20s (I dont know why). With Brilliant (because you have to "spam" it), Conjure Familiar can trigger all the 5 passives, so +3 for all stats + minor bonuses + 1PL. Also, the Lance of the Midwood Stag is a good weapon for Sorcerer, because of Lord of the Forest (+2PL under Form of the Delemgan) ; otherwise the Chromatic Quaterstaff is also very good, with the +20 deflection vs melee modal (the malus doesnt affect spell recovery and you have a lot of them).

  20. Lann is bad enough if you aren't playing as a lady but from what I've read he turns into a creepy stalker nice guy for the ladies. I was ready to drop him before, but based on that I think that I'm going to go with the silly little cat for the next run(s?) and see if I can sic her on Lady Konomi.

  22. The Russian ministry of defense admits they made a rounding error somewhere... instead of mobilizing another 300000 men to send to the front, they accidentally rounded up 1000000 men to send to Ukraine soon. Hence the widespread dissatisfaction https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-63036985 Edit: The Soviet army is calling from 1942 and wants its troops back!

  25. Overlord 4.12 and 4.13 Very disappointing episodes. The fight in episode 11 was much more interesting and having villains as protagonists is way more interesting when they are fighting against other bad guys than when This season has ended and apparently Spy x Family will resume on Saturday.

  32. look on the bright side. even if such spells had been added, owlcat woulda' made most o' the bosses immune to 'em anyway. edit: alchemists and their force bombs is devastating in wotr, but the developers went outta their way make certain that in most boss battles your force spells would be ineffectual. HA! Good Fun!

  33. Not that high due to recession and current debt issues, but it will go north of 100 around mid winter. 100-110 range, but going higher is still possible, if EU will have to burn oil instead of gas for energy needs.

  35. They could have multiple reasons: warn the west about things to come if they don't force Ukraine to the negotiating table pretend to be the first victim of the upcoming pipeline ripper (definitely not the perpetrator, no sir) divide NATO with accusations and conspiracy theories (was it US? was it Poland?) panic the EU markets to rally the slowly dropping gas prices punish Germany for taking over Russian energy assets And it's not like the pipelines were looking to be of much use in the short term anyway. Doesn't mean they did it of course, but the benefits are there.

  36. I'm leaning towards that too. There's this mod that increases bb points from achievements: https://www.nexusmods.com/pillarsofeternity2/mods/259 But we can disregard it imo, the blessings won't do anything even if the player could afford them. If you want to try the options in action here're the downloads: Blank & Affordable -> S4 - BB Clarity (Blank - Affordable).zip Blank & Unaffordable -> S4 - BB Clarity (Blank - Unaffordable).zip Lock & Unaffordable ->S4 - BB Clarity (Lock - Unaffordable).zip

  37. I would not put it past a Russian 'navigational error' causing them to drill holes in the wrong pipelines, given the location of the leaks. Nord Stream AG is already complaining about sanctions making it impossible to determine the full extent of the pressure loss and repairing the damage, so that is going to be the new spin going forward, but it certainly is a downgrade in exertable pressure (edit: no pun intended, oh dear). One cannot dangle a carrot in front of a horse when it was cut off your stick, after all.

  38. I know - there've been cases of children with dark skin tones born to caucasian couples, and the inverse sometimes happens too, when black couples have perfectly white children. The former is fairly uncommon but happens somewhat regularily here (and in Germany) in areas that where occupied by the US after the second world war. Not hard to guess why. I just really doubt that was the thing the creative team was going for here.

  39. The weapon item system is kinda annoying. Gives me serious Mass Effect 1 flashbacks, where you would swap your weapon every 10 minutes for a new gun that deals +1 more DPS. I've upgraded a couple of my weapons, but what's the point if I soon find some random weapon from a thug that deals at least as much or even more damage. That said, I just found a super fat revolver and now that's what I'm going to use. Revolver + Katana, makes sense to me. Slash slash, boom boom.
