Blades of Vanatar

Why can't a Dragon have minions? The Adra Dragon was a slick one for sure, plus he was stuck there, so of course he would want minions to go do his bidding and find a way to free him. He even tries to get you to do it for him.

Debuff then Gaze. Reminds me of Firkraag Bane then Harm/Chromatic Orb cheese.

It's almost cheese. I was kind of thinking that was not what the op was looking for. But yes, it makes Dragon slaying much easier.

????? I defeated the Adra Dragon in try # 2. Most importantly...Spread out. Use summons as meat shields and to engage Dragon Cronies. Definitely tank one of your characters. A fully speced Pally or Fighter Tank can stand up to a Dragon. Buff him and CC the Dragon. Burst damage the hell out of the Dragon AFTER CCing the beast. Eat lots of food prior. Go to Dyrord and rest first for the beast damage bonus. I could go on.... Their AoE attacks only hit your entire party if you are grouped tightly. No real dragonslayer just charges. You need to trick and lure the beast. Alpine is the hardest imo. Tighter quarters for sure and more annoying Cronies. I would wait until lvl 11-12 for the Alpine encounter. Sky Dragon is a breeze, I have soloed him with a Resolution/Misery's End dual-wield Rogue on Hard.

God-like much?

I am currently trying a TCS run with a non min-maxed Moon God-Like Goldpact Pally. Just ended Chapter II, now starting the WM. I do not plan to respec, it would the experience for me. I have never finished a TCS run, but I am positive I can. Next I will try a Rogue. Not sure about how I will accomplish a TCS with him....

Outside of the first time in Searing Falls I never had an issue detecting/disarming. I had a Rogue in my first party and increased mechanics every step of the way, being a major Rogue fan of course helps with that.

Don't press it then insta-press Knockdown. You need to wait a second or two for it to engage. Insta cast doesn't mean instant combat result. Any slowdown by your PC can make it seem like it doesn't always engage.... I had the same problems at first. My PC is 5 yrs old now. That's like 90 in PC years.

Inventory... I would like some type of encumberence implemented. Carrying around 8 suits of Plate armor in NPCs inventory kind of kills any 'real feel' for me. Just wishful thinking on my own end...

On a tangentially-related note, I'm wondering if I could make Devil of Caroc into a ranged rogue... my frontline's getting crowded. Twin Sting...

I would bet big dollars that you have really weird dreams...

There is also scrolls and resting bonuses to pump your mech stat.

I believe the levels will be reset to 1. So I don't think equipment will be carrying over.

Tallgrass MeleeRanger is nice as Ranger has decent ACC.

Once you learn game mechanics only POTD is a challenge, scaling or not.

So... how did you do it?

Pen Blast kicks butt with the Soulbound Scepter.

Rapid Recovery - it's ok. Not necessary though, depends on how you build Eder or any fighter for that matter. If you are making him a tank then not necessary. If he is Off-Tanking only then maybe. I would take something else.

Two Weapon Style - no. It speeds your attacks up 20%. It depends on the weapon speed and your armor on whether you reach 0 recovery or not.

White worms - best used in a doorway. Yes only works on corpses. Pile a few up then lore the next mob to you. It's nice when Caed Nua delving.

Come, come soft winds is an excellent excellent phrase. In long term fights it kicks arse on a high might, high Int Chanter.

I guess that's a yes since Jerek answered :D Also.. there's another question about survival bonus. 1) Let's say i have level 2 survival and resting you can only choose one bonus right? Either DR or Healing bonus. Or actually which one you choose doesn't matter? You'll get both? 2) So let's say i have 7 level of survival bonus, my DR becomes twice better during rest? Thanks! You can only choose one at a time.

There are 2 talents, not 1. One for yourself, one for healing others.

Chanter as MC. Party looks good. If you are deadest on Melee Rogue then Sabre wielder is viable. Heavy Armour is not an issue if stealthing for a backstab. I like Sanguine Plate on my dual sabre Hearth Orlan Rogues. Also like the Ring of Wonder as you WILL go down in melee. But you will rise and possibly get more strikes in before the enemy turns back to you. I also like Rogues who stun/prone enemies as they can't hit back. The faster the attack speed on a stun/prone weapon the better. Once you start getting storm spells off and the enemy is immobilized your Rogue will really shine. When I see heavy hitters on the other side I stealth my Rogue longer until he can strike an immobilized toughie. Bartenders Ring and vessel slaying enchantments are sweet on a Rogue.
