Turning to POTD midgame.
YES! Thaos can ohko a top gear equipped and buffed group. Misses are very common especially at the beginning of the game.

Mobbing causes phychological trauma. It's not that different from physical trauma, you just don't see it straight away. Imagine it as being beaten with police batons. But invisible ones. And not once, but continuously. If at first you are enraged against police brutality - "what's going on? i didn't break any laws!", after a while you just want the pain to stop. Both psychological and physical torture eventually lead to the same end. Funny that some people don't see such obvious things... Now enter police batons. What happened to the incident?

Stop twisting the reasoning. How do suicide out of stupidity and disability due to an accident fall under the same category?

I think Obsidian has learn another important lesson here: any forced edition won't be tolerated by the fanbase since it undermines the whole "by gamers for gamers" definition. If you waver that lightly means only that you care for your creation that much.- Obsidian devs after the Limerick controversy..
I bet the devs are censored to comment on the whole limmerick issue in hopes it will die out by itself eventually.- Pitching/Who do I contact?

Oh, cmon! The word FORCED is more appropriate here.- Obsidian devs after the Limerick controversy..
If the feminazi can make a person, whose tribute to the humanity's progress is immesurable, cry for whatever reason, then their title is well deserved.- Obsidian devs after the Limerick controversy..
As a backer I DON'T care a duck about ppl uninvolved in the funding. The game's got pegi 16 rating: a clear warning to stay the duck out of it.- Obsidian devs after the Limerick controversy..
Obsidian has already been repressed by the shift in backers' relation for the limmerick removal. I'm sure their next kickstarter figure will drop severely. I hope their "correctness" will make up for lying to the bakers.- Being multilingual...

an interesting fact: until my kid turned 4 she wasn't even aware she was talking 2 languages. In time she will forget one. I know a lot of people who forget the language spoken by parents but not spoken outside.- Being multilingual...

I'm not a linguist by choice. It just happened that I moved countries a few times in my life. As for the languages, let's say each belongs to a completely different group.- Being multilingual...
Hello, pplz. I'm fluent in 3 languages, can read in 3 more. I've noticed that my thoughts sometimes form a sentence that contains the fragments of all 3 languages that I'm fluent in at the same time. I can begin in one, continue in another and finish in one more. I've also noticed that my phrases have become shorter and more informative. The overall descriptiveness has decreased. Sometimes I find myself in a position where I'm picking an optimal construction in another language even in a conversation with a person that doesn't know that particular language. I'm wondering if any1 else has got a similar issue.- savage attack + Vulnerable attack worth?
savage+vulnerable stack and are both bump up your fighter dps counter significantly- PotD Party Advice
I used 2 fighters, chanter, priest, 2 ciphers. The whole PotD was a cakewalk, except for Thaos, but i'm yet to see an exploit free PotD Thaos kill. I didn't go defensive builds on the fighters and it was ok, but I recommend to go weap+shield+defender to make the things even easier.- A bit of PoE fun and...

- WTF is wrong with Obsidian?
Nothing is wrong with obsidian, they're trying their best and are loved for what they are. The short answer is because their games are so complex and offer so much gameplay opportunities it's simply impossible for a programmer no matter how involved and talented to keep track of the whole product. I can't even fathom an automated test for a game like PoE. Everything requires human hand, mind and understanding and humans are not perfect, they make mistakes. The games get polished eventually and I must say PoE vanilla was very polished in relation to the game's scope, it had only 1 major bug and even that bug was solvable. Before lashing at obsidian you should stop and consider for a few hours how much effort it takes to make a game like PoE, a game where the gameplay doesn't seem like a bowel movement by its straightforwardness. A game like PoE must be a soul drainer for a dev and it doesn't yeid as much profit as do other much less dev devotion demanding titles. I'm glad we still have ppl like Obsidian, inXile, HBS and Ice-Pick lodge who persevere in our console age. Yes, their games aren't AAA, but we never asked them to be. Those who wade against the current, I salute you.- The resting in the stronghold is terrible design
