[Class Build] "Ascended Extended" (Mystic){WIP} ON HOLD!
Grab a large shield with modal - works wonders against ranged volleys. Ihave a Warlock with <100 deflection atm and he can survive lots of stuff just with the modal on.

Do the Bracers of Greater Deflection just not exist?
I have def. found then somewhere - because I tried to wear them with a Cape of Greater Deflection and they didn't stack which was weird. But I can't say where.

Lord Darryn's Voulge Without Heart of Fury?
I was pretty sure that didn't change. Thanks for confirming.

[Class Build] "Ascended Extended" (Mystic){WIP} ON HOLD!
Ascension doesn't change the action speed on it's own, though. And that was Teclis' question. Yeah, you can use some methods for speed stacking, like Scordeo's, maybe even the special foods but those are not connected with Ascension. All true. But my answer was not aimed at you.

Does a single clas Paladin support enough to Warrant a Spot (on PoTD)
@Manveru123: Exactly. Except Marksman ring maybe. And using two Rings of Overseeing sometimes. @Teclis23: Erm... isn't that the whole point of roleplaying a Paladin?

You mean like OP suggested with Sc. Trophy? Nah - too obvious...

Does a single clas Paladin support enough to Warrant a Spot (on PoTD)
The exhortations my be costly, but they are also fast cast with 0 recovery - which means you can remove afflictions immediately. Especially when using a gun. I agree that the costs seem too high most of the time though. Also a single class paladin can get back substancial amounts of zeal on kill (if he takes the right abilites). Also you can get Exhalted Endurance a lot earlier which has more impact on lower levels. That means if you build a somewhat offensive paladin (who is still sturdy - just because he's a Paladin) you can get a lot of zeal back during an encounter. With Exhalted Endurance and Greater Lay on Hands (and some healing bonuses like Physiker's Belt and Practised Healer) you already only lose less than 50 health in total from your Sacred Immolation. If you pick up Voidward even less. With Sworn Enemy, Scion of Flame, Ring of Focused Flame, FoD and Inspired Beacon+Scared Immolation you will kill a lot of enemies, getting back zeal constantly. Later use Divine Immolation and Zeal of Pure Light to heal your people big time while dealing large amounts of damage around you. Also people always argue about Sacred/Divine Immolation as if you'd use it in a vacuum, without your party members present. Or as if a paladin couldn't drink a potion. Sure, the self damage of Sacred Immolation is high, too high. But it's not that hard to circumvent it. If a single class paladin is boring then it's because you build him too defensively. Everything is boring if you build it too defensively. A single class paladin like described above surely isn't boring. Maybe the character would be more useful if he was a Herald or Templar, but he's certainly not boring.

Doesn't Static Charge work with Carnage?

Getting 1 minute of ascension where you can cast cipher powers without cost and increased Power Level (+2 in this case) while having fast cast times is not a questionable outcome. By the way: Salvation of Time adds +20 sec on the first cast and +10 on the second currently. Example: with the first cast of SoT you can "buy" the equivalent of 3 Amplified Waves (if you consider casting speed/recovery bonuses). Three Amplified Waves instead of one Pillar of Flames is a win for me personally. So - not really questionable, but a bit fiddly perhaps.

Worst multiclass synergy
I agree completely. Also to the indecisive part about multiclass or single class. Eld Nary is so strong when it's empowered... It also makes perfect sense to take the "Potent/Accurate/Penetrating Empower" passive abilites with that sabre as a single class chanter.

Thematically Revising Priest Special Spells...
Yeah yeah... I also think the spell fits a Priest of Berath thematically very well. Of course on itself it's not very useful. You have to combine it with something else. For example it can extend stuff like Ascended and I also believe it prolongs Spiritshift(?). Too bad you can't cast it to prolong Citzal's Martial Power (I mean on yourself if you are a priest/wizard).

Are lifegivers any good
Haha - don't be offended. I'm just teasing.
-
Thematically Revising Priest Special Spells...
Poor compared to something else. Perhaps I should revise it? I think it's one of the best spells there is (when using smart combos). With decent INT you can extend Barring Death's Door for quite a lot of time - just one example.

[PoE1 Help] Looking for a Custom Party to help me beat Llengrath/The Adra Dragon
Because the hammer raises your MIG by +4 and comes with some spell-like CC which priests lack. It's not the strongest build in the game (if there is any "strongest" in the first place) but it does great damage and healing.

Blightheart "dexterity affliction"? help
Boeroer replied to LEGATUS_AUGUSTI's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)And you don't have to apply them with the gun. You just have to hold it in your hands while casting a spell like Binding Web for example. If you hit several enemies then all hits count. Since Binding Web reapplies "immobilized" in pulses you might hit 30 appliances after one single cast.

Attribute Changes in Deadfire
Boeroer replied to Artaios's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)But we did buy it. It's called Deadfire - where the thugs on Gorecci Street tear you a new one, then the panthers shred you to tiny bits when you dare to enter their digsite and where the dragons fall over when you sneeze at them. Hatchooo!

What would you like to see in future DLCs and patches?
Boeroer replied to Dr. Hieronymous Alloy's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)The thread's topic title does include patches. I would also like the reputation system to be rebalanced. Right now I can max out every single reputation. I can be cruel and kind at the same time. I was thinking that reputation should decay over time or as you change direction. Oops, sorry. You are right. The title is cut off on my phone.

Yes, the Spine is pretty awesome for a Livegiver. You can also get it fairly early.
