Used Withdraw scrolls. Helps a lot.

Yes, that is what I was talking about. They could have found a middle ground. +0.1 per alchemy level. Or even 0.05...

Does Skaen's spiritual weapon club count as a torch?

I can't get you a source, but I think it did get a different guy. I think I heard this in a stream and also read it in the forums.

I remember the first time I went to see the Torn Bannermen. It was like a boss battle I came back later and turned them into the Banner Torn men.

It gets better in the second season. Does anyone know how good the third one is?

She is the chosen one! The end of days is coming!

Good idea. Let's hope I didn't sell all those scrolls. I can make more, I know, but if they use some ingredient that I want to save (like onyx - invisibility potions) I'll rather not make them.

It is sad that alchemy doesn't increase the effect of drugs. For example, that charu charu drug (or whatever it is called) gives +3 might, con and dex. It used to increase this effect by 1 per alchemy level, right? I'm not sure, didn't play at the time. Now it doesn't change at all. Why not give a smaller effect? Like +0.1 per alchemy level. What is the worst it could happen, someone gets alchemy to 30 and the drug will give +6?

get a torch or use the starting saber torch and keep it on a melee character, try fighting only during daytime, or use a stealthy scouting party. How many meters do you gain with the torch? Is it the same with Xoti's lantern and the sabre?

Wow. This is really nice! "Help me study." Of course.

Lawful Evil, always. Too many of my favorite characters in fantasy stories are the token evil teammate, I have to take up the mantle myself. Yep, I'm usually torn between Lawful Evil and Neutral Evil. It sucks when you play tabletop with people that believe that Evil is all about murdering everything in sight, they expect you to betray them because they're Good so they try to betray you first, that a character has to be Evil because they hate non-humans, or some moron is trying to play a Neutral Good necromancer that wants to brutally murder his parents because they're **** and Evil... Exactly. My LE lord will do the best for his people, simply because he has nothing against them and wants to have order in there. Criminals and anyone who disrespect him are an entirely different matter...

I think I'll start with CG. I'll leave lawful for my evil character on the second pt. I always wanted to be a LE lord.

I was about to complain, until I saw the "sniff" section. Btw, didn't Siuan snort, instead of sniff? Edit: Yes, Siuan Sanche snorts.

I can't play as my Death Godlike from PoE1 because there is no model for her portrait (see my signature). They changed it for PoE2. I've been thinking of how to use a screenshot and some of the methods to make watercolor portraits (blur, edge-detection...) and turn it into a decent portrait for the new Death Godlike. I tried something once but it didn't look good.

It's not like, that the gouging strike cheese is unknown, u just did not needed it until now. I didn't find it funny when they used it on Mirke. But with Konstanten's chants and Vatnir spells she didn't feel it anymore. As for the boss, there are already suggestions for making it harder.

Yes, there were a few moments I had to pretend to support slavery in order to find out about Furrante's plans or set someone free. And Serafen didn't understand. But in most cases I didn't lose reputation with him. The problem is you can only "help" the slavers twice before he leaves you. I think I messed a bit these quests. I wanted to help Aeldys, but also to get kill the leaders of the tribe and get whatever reward the slaver boss would give me. For roleplaying reasons of course. I had already maximized experience and I had more than enough money. In the end I couldn't set the prisoners free (not a problem, since they were disrespectful and my character didn't care about them) and Aeldys wasn't pleased, but I could still progress supporting her. The way I did it, Serafen had the satisfaction of dealing with the slaver and even though Aeldys doesn't mention it (like Furrante), I assume I got a seat in the Principi council. Onekaza was displeased too, since I failed her quest even before she gave it. But who cares right?

Maybe after Deadfire third DLC?

Do you need a rogue in your party (for taps or whatever). Or can Linzi handle anything related?

Expect nothing and you will never be disappointed.

I don't know how to do it with Photoshop. I'm using gimp and following this guide. I basically just do what is said there, but when I use the brush I have to guess how many times will be good. Apart from that I only change something when the picture doesn't look good and I try to blur more (or less) or use a different edge detect method. However, I don't really know everything that is going on.

I usually forget about empower, but in long fights or when I want to use an AoE spell against multiple enemies (so satisfying! ) I remember it exists.

Venom spit! Or do like spiderman and throw some web at the characters and pull them closer.

That's much better! Sorry, I got the wrong idea. 2* and 2* would not be that bad for the beginning of the game, but this is a Berath's Blessing so 4* and 4* are how it should be.

That's right, I have to carefully consider which items to use in each battle. I spent a good amount of money to refill my ingredients and even Mirke is using the occasional lightning bolt or twin stones scroll. IMO I think it's supposed to be difficult for anyone not bringing along a priest. I had Vatnir Dismissal most of each wave away. (Dismissal has been amazing since 1.0. Don't get why some people continue to think priests suck.) I changed my mind, priests don't suck! I'm actually not considering the battles in SSS that difficult, but in many battles I have to be very careful and mind my decisions almost every time I pause. Otherwise I have to try again. But if I'm careful, I can win most battles even without empower. Let's see what comes next, I've only done 13 battles.
