That would be nice. Doesn't even need to be 30% like in PoE. -
I was speaking in defense of Ansalon in this case which he might have missed.
-
I think there is one item that causes injuries on hit. But I can't find it anymore. That would most likely be the most convenient way if the injuries are not too severe. Console would be addinjury play<tab> AFF_Severe<tab> false

Dirty Fighting, I guess? Fighter and Barb both have access to higher hit to crit bonuses than Dirty Fighting. Also self accuracy buffs which the Rogue lack. In other words; they don't. I admit is was a trick question. Players might still think that the rogue is the king of crits in Deadfire because he was in PoE.

Just compare the 1H/2H weapons that have the same advantages: Sword/Great Sword: dual damage, higher base --> Great Sword gets +1 PEN War Hammer/Morning Star: dual damage, medium base --> MS +1 PEN Stiletto/Estoc: higher PEN, single damage type, lower base --> Estoc +1 PEN Battle Axe/Two handed Battle Axe: medium base, single damage type, higher crit dmg --> ??? The +1 of all two handers (see how they behave compared to their one-handed variants in terms of game mechanics) was added because the higher base damage alone was not sufficient to balance them with dual wielding, +shield or one handed wielding. This was discussed here in length prior to 1.2 and it seems that Obsidian listened and chenged it in 1.2. Which is great. Now, with that in mind it is obvious to me that Obsidian simply forgot to put +1 PEN on the Oathbreaker's End. But on the other two handers it seems to be just fine now? Can't see how they have too low PEN...?

Knock yourself out via corrosion spell (e.g. Necrotic Lance) or fire spell and you will get an Acute Rash or Severe Burn. Or let party members do it. Both are light injuries that don't do that much harm. You can do it outside of combat where you'll have unlimited offensive spells. Don't know if that is the "best" way but it works nicely.

Why does a Shadowdancer crit more than other Monk multiclasses with Stunning Surge?
-
Well, I was the one suggesting it in that other thread.
-
It can be very useful but is also a bit of a hassle. I can't say if it's worth the trouble in he long run - that may differ from player to player. It's hilarious and fun - but nothing I personally would do a whole playthrough with.
-
Substitute with Lance + Mule Kick until then. Also hilarious, but Lvl 13.

All two-handers got +1 PEN with patch 1.2 to improve them for balancing reasons. Because of that this special two handed battle-axe should also get +1PEN compared to a one-handed battle axe. If it hasn't that's clearly an oversight and should be reported and fixed. Of course it's not useless, far from it, but this is only due to its unique enchantments, not because it's a two handed axe. THis case is a precedent for all the folling ones where weapons of a certain proficiency but different handling style get introduced (think of Abydon's Hammer). For example: if Obsidian introduces a unique great sword that could be wielded with one hand once you reach 20 MIG, it should get -1 PEN compared to "normal" great sword once you use it with one hand only. If Obsidian introduces a two handed sabre that should get +1 PEN - because it occupies both hands.

@Ansalon: with Grave Calling and Hel Beckoning a Chanter can kill his own summons and turn them into imps. A great multiclass combo for this is a Beckoner/Berserker because his Carnage kills his very weak skeletons with the blade which will then spawn two big skeletons and one imp. If you kill those two as well you will have three imps. Since you are starting with 6 skeletons you can get 18 imps very quickly and as a bonus trigger Bloodlust and Blood Thirst. Also works with the skeleton you can summon with each phrase with the high lvl summoning chant. Same with Hel Beckoning and puny phantoms - but obviously the Grave Calling/Skeleton thing is better because you simply summon more skeletons than phantoms. Killing enemy vessels is just a nice bonus then.

Fighter/Wizard with Spirit Lance + Clear Out. Great combo of huge AoE damage, CC and awesome push effects. If only Deadfire hat body physics...
-
Right
-
Does it have the same base damage and two damage types?
-
-
You called me disingenous. But that's no problem, I'm not offended by it - so just forget it.

In a lot of ways: Interpret it as I meant it: "no point [making a tier list] when having no in-game experience with [several of] them" and "because judging weapons based on their description alone [and putting them into a tier list with others you did test] doesn't work well". Don't read something mean(er) into my sentences than there is. I never said you did zero tests nor that you have no in-game experience at all. I said a tier list is pointless because you put items in there that you have tested and ones that you haven't. The "no in-game experience" and "description alone" was aimed at those items, not all of your posts.
-
Sure! You are combining high dmg bonuses (Sneak Attack + Deathblows and so on) with a multiplicative lash (FoD). If you use a weapon with another lash that's great dmg per hit. Also Sneak Attack and stuff stacks with the +40% dmg beacon of the paladin. Retribution stacks with Sneak and friends. Riposte is there, too.
-
Yes. It means you do more ouch and receive more ouch.
-
I think there is no complete list yet. Open console, give yourself the item, use levelupsoulbind command and watch the screen that pops up after every soulbound-level-up. iroll20s giveitem LAX02_mace<tab> [bind soul with char] levelupsoulbind player_<tab> LAX02_mace<tab>

Correct

By the way - and that Ansalon got right but was critized - Miscreant's Leather is the best dps armor. That's because if you use Cutthroat Cosmo (or Abraham) the recovery penalty of the leather will be smaller than the 10% speed bonus you get from it. That means that you will be faster with Miscr. Leather + Cutthroat Cosmo than with a robe (+Cutthroat Cosmo ). AND you will have more AR as a bonus on top.
