And now a sneek peek at the Making of PoE Documentary
A lesson to be learned: 1. Don't rely a single AAA project, try to deversify. A mobile game here, an educational there. 2. Don't expand like a normal enterprice would, each hired person is not a +1 it's a (team)*new guy's neccesity, because in a creative framework each fired person is not a -1, it's (team)/fired person's devotion. 3. Communicate with your fans. It's hard and the community is always a lifeforce drainer, but if you take turns it should be ok. 4. 5. Release a new BB build now!!!!!!!

Just noticed that u can enchant clothing!
Not only it looks much cooler on a wizard, clothing's got no recovery penalties and is better than any robe in that respect. My wizard armor of choice is set.

tried mace+mace...
turned out not half bad... 1. two-weapon style and vulnerable attack canceled out 20% speed, but left the 5dr bonus. 2. Maces have got inherent 3dr. 3. with 1h, you don't get interrupted as much as with 2h, the dmg output is steadier.

Human's racial bonus is actually useful on hard+!
I agree on the duration, it should be at least 30 seconds

on normal- is next to useless.

What to do with the Ranger - ideas thread
Rangers suck, I say eliminate the class alltogether.

So, how have you been wiped so far?
I'm going to play on hard, because on hard you'll get a lot of extra equipment, rare ingridients and bestiary entries earlier than on lower difficulties due to the presence of extra well equipped enemies.

Balancing Light Weapons
+ DR description says that 20% minimum of the rolled damage is guaranteed regardless of DT.

Power-gamed party composition
wizards have a lot of charming and weakening aoes and level 6 aoe petrification is awesome + a wizard will learn everything eventually, unlike cipher.

Power-gamed party composition
don't ignore priest's seals, they all do decent damage and provide limited cc, also, u can boost a priest's accuracy really well if u combine his diety talent with a focus. For example, Wael gives 10 and peasant focus gives another 10 acc for staff. my personal pick would be: fighter - plate, estoc druid - plate, staff priest - plate, staff chanter - plate, arquebus rogue - leather, war bow wizard - scale, sceptre

Yo ushas - I think I found why DR values are borked
Oh, really? I bet you'll have precision issues rounding up the percenage of the "elementary" school graduates who are aware of what "decimal" means.

DEX or PER?
Ok, for my fighter i pump up STR and another stat which is either DEX or PER. I tried both, they both r good, and personally I'm more inclined towards PER, but since DEX benefits more for 2H weps, I'm a bit concerned that I'll be a bit slow all the way up to level 7 when armored grace becomes available. And level 7 is more than half a game since the cap is 12 and it's been stated that it won't be reached on a non-completionist walkthrough. Your thoughts, forum.

why does the exact formula bother u so? It's obvious that every fusking programmer indaworld knows about float -> int and vise versa casting.

any idea if they fix anything equipmentwise before the release? Except for the obvious bugs, of course.

Best focus for 2h and dualwield?
there are a few and one of them is really nasty. OMG, there is one weak but with a lot of enchanment potential (that if they don't add a few nasty enchantments to be generally available). final edit: 2 of all unique rapiers are super omfg!!!!!

Hearth Orlan = best racial bonus?
2 BB walkthroughs characters exactly the same class and talents, 1 orlan, 1 human. For the orlan total crit/hit count is 96/18 For the human it's 31/80. Is it just me or it's that the hearth orlans are so critty?
