Raven Darkholme

Yeah old areas seem to respawn, the Battery map is just way smaller now, so there's only 1 Ingot (and 2 from a quest.)

Also to note is that the dragon has Sneak Attacks and Deathblows. Eder is not the best choice if you actually want to tank the dragon. Respeccing a PC paladin is pretty awesome here, since the dragon does not target deflection at all.

I only used IEMod once after PoE first released and never again. The only mod I would be interested in, doesn't exist which is an SCS like AI Mod. If the enemy AI used consumables and spells just a little more intelligent I would enjoy playing with a party much more.

Just have a paladin tank it and you don't need cheesy strats.^^

Yeah these days my strategy would be different too. I wasn't really used to being able to respec and also didn't want to abuse the feature too much.

Thx a lot, I haven't been using Galaxy for long, now I can finally play.

I apologize in advance if this has been posted already. I bought WM 2 yesterday and was a little surprised that I only seemed to get Ver 3.0 (GoG Galaxy). The ingame title screen changed to PoE White March with snow in the back and all, but it said WM 2 is NOT installed. I went ingame, created 2 companions to acompany my solo paladin but the only quest I got, was a stronghold quest. Also I don't get xp for my maxed out paladin (14) but I'm sure I read you can get 15 in WM 2.

Pretty much the more diverse the party is the more op it becomes, but also a LOT more work. That's why I like to call 6 chanters lazy party.^^

It definitely did not generate focus before 2.00 or I woulda spammed the **** out of that ability. Can't be intentional.

On wizards Dex is less important since their cast speed is super fast. I always used very similar stats to what Sking posted: (I would probably not min Dex and not max Might)

Beware that this is NOT the most op build as you stated, but just the easiest way to get through the game. It is clearly op enough to make the game a joke, but so is almost every other party. Just take away 2 chanters and add a cipher and a defensive paladin. The cipher uses mindweb, the paladin has max defenses and Sacred Immolation, which is even better than dragon slashed but comes at level 13 instead of 9. Combine this with the DR chant and you are absolutely unkillable.

And it can be applied to ranger's animal companion ------ Have tried new chanter's phrase (+100% healing). I think it can be especially good if you have Kind Wayfarer paladin. (added Strange Mercy to Pallegina via console) And that's with only 14 might and even without +healing bonus from survival. Gotta test new "The Sword and the shepherd" too. ------ P.S. Exact stats of new summoned weapons: Caedebald's Blackbow: Reaping Knives: (and yes it can't be cast on self) Ranger seems super good now, pet is awesome for martyr and Ranger gets damage and attack speed bonus if pet is knocked out.

Wtf. This is so op. Loving the mindweb, defensive paladins have gotten way better once again, even tho passively. :D Shame SFV had to come out the very same day as WM 2.

Duplication sounds nice.

Ok, finally got to do the video. If you just wanna see the build it's right in the start, but I somehow managed to ramble on for over 40 minutes after that : https://youtu.be/ylV_z3ORMLc

Am I the only one reading Cancerhaut, each time I read this thread title?

Since there are foes with Slash or Pierce Immunity both weapons have their uses. If your question is, whether your party can "survive" PotD, just ask yourself if your party consisting of SIX chars actually CAN be weaker than a solo character.

No go I hate druggies.

Just use ST. Ydwen's Rewdeemer.

Yeah, white worms is a lot of fun.

Well, if we could choose by looks we all would go for the super hot nature godlikes.

Except for people who will never touch a ranger.^^ Oh wait, never is the wrong word, my first PoE character was a ranger.

The fact that there are very nice unique hunting bows doesn't make the unique war bows bad. Cloudpiercer (rending + jolting touch), Sabra Marie (confusing), Rain of Godagh Field (speed) and Borresaine (draining, stunning) ar all very good in my opinion. Ok - I also always go for Stormcaller of Persistence, but still... Stormcaller is very good for building focus because of the -6 shock DR. I would choose it for my bow cipher - if had no ranger in the party of course. If you have more than one cipher, sure war bow might be an option.

Yeah I picked Goldpact mainly for GotM for 1 ST. Coastal Aumaua is definitely better than pale Elf, since the bonus vs prone happens to be extremely important vs dragons.

Yea. Wot's a droggie?
