Talents, resting- weapon- and equipment bonuses affecting the same stuff always stack (highest bonus of each type except talents - talents even stack with other talents), even attribute bonuses (although the only weapon to add that is Prey Maker afaik, but it sure stacks with other +PER gear). That should answer everything but the crit damage. It's hard to test without a weapon that does constant damage, but my best guess is that it does.

Stuck at Crägholdt - door to Cancelhaut

You probably read the wrong ones, or maybe even missed some. It's not the research notes you need to read. -
Fulvano's Amulet?

It's the same as the healing bonus from might. -
Durgan Iron Ingots
dukefx replied to RocketChaser's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Stories (Spoiler Warning!)
Good point. As for Unbroken and Second Chance, earlier today I was leveling the 2-handed soulbound sword with Eder, and it asked for 5 in-battle resurrections. So I made him charge some enemies naked, with a 2nd chance ring on and AI turned off. They beat him up, Unbroken triggered, and it didn't count as a resurrection, then they beat him up some more, he got KO-ed, and then 2nd Chance came along, and that did count as one (then they beat him up some more, and Durance brought him back a couple of times). The last time prior to the expansion when I actually played the game SC didn't work with Unbroken. That was patch 1.04 I think. Edér never had the chance to go down twice since, so if it really stacks it's a welcoming change. -

All I want is a customizable skill bar: rearrange and hide/show skills. -
Durgan Iron Ingots
dukefx replied to RocketChaser's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Stories (Spoiler Warning!)
It decreases speed penalty for as long as there is a penalty. Naked fighters with armored grace do not become faster. It would be funny to get a +32% recovery bonus having Armored Grace and simple clothing enchanted with durgan steel. The only question is: does Armored Grace stack with the enchantment? Unbroken doesn't seem to stack with Second Chance, so I doubt this would. -
Impenetrable Durgan Battery?
dukefx replied to drunetovich's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Stories (Spoiler Warning!)
Thought you were talking about the "balcony" to the east. I'm guessing you are referring to the battlements. That's still a hard to access area, you have to fight your way through all those creatures guarding the battery and pray that you won't get a spear thrown into your back while scaling the wall (if you manage to climb an icy wall in armor and carrying heavy weapons). My #3 argument still applies. -
Impenetrable Durgan Battery?
dukefx replied to drunetovich's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Stories (Spoiler Warning!)
Lets see... - door on lower floor sealed until you open it from the inside by activating the forge - probably a magical exit only (you can't enter there) - it's common knowledge that there's a stairway leading to the forge, everyone knows that, I mean those folks in the village probably made a bed time story about it and used it for the last 300 years. Yup... I'm pretty sure they are dumb -
best "fast" weapon type?
dukefx replied to Animaillusionaria's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
If you insist on having the same type of weapon in both hands then flails or rapiers (or maybe clubs). The others have 1 good unique at best. -
Rename Adra Dragon scales / Sky Dragon eyes to Dragon Scale / Dragon Eye, add one of those to drop list, problem solved. Could you please post the picture of Sabra Marie ? Mine after beta patches and rollbacks is kinda weird (original drop): http://postimg.org/image/dxvixavb1/ Well, yes, that would have been my solution as well.... to just name them dragon scales and dragon eyes. On the bright side there's a dragon eye on Concelhaut's desk. Maybe this is OE's way of letting you take the peaceful solution without crying inside that you did the right thing, but now you aren't getting the scales/eyes, then again why put loot behind the dragon?! He'll turn on you if you touch it even if you've severed the connection to his soul twins already.

Those should be giftbearers you are talking about.

Soulbound Weapons?
dukefx replied to Brimsurfer's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
It doesn't benefit from two weapon fighting, it's a two handed weapon after all. -
If anyone's interested in Stormcallers abilities: Spellbind: Minor Bulwark against the Elements Spellbind: Minor Crackling Bolt Spellchance: Returning Storm Bolt Spellchance: Soul Shock Spellchance: The Thunder Rolled

Soulbound Weapons?
dukefx replied to Brimsurfer's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
Yes, it does! On a sidenote: these new unique weapons can't be enchanted. This includes durgan steel refinement. I wouldn't call them a no brainer at all. The Estoc is great, and the GS is okayish, as for the others there are far better alternatives or the weapon type is just meh.
