Then it would be too good. It could get bonus damage on charmed/dominated targets though.

It's both. Conversion only applies once. That was the case in PoE and I remember somebody from Obsidian saying the same about Deadfire. Can't find the quote though. Conversion chances of the same conversion-tier are indeed multiplicative - because the individual conversion chances get rolled one after the other until one triggers or they all got checked. So naturally a 30% hit-to-crit conversion and another 25% hit-to-crit conversion don't lead to 55% but 47.5%. You can never get to 100%.

Powergamers delight in dominating the game, sure. But they want to come up with a smart build idea that's not trivial, test it a bit and then be happy when it indeed works very well in an actual playthrough. When every derp can steamroll the game with a toilet-paper wielding accountant the Powergamer cries. Creativity needs boundaries. Same with achievements.

I would try single class Berserker just to check it out with Heart of Fury...

Wait? I'm in the game? And naked?

OETS* Mode! )* One Eyed Trouser Snake

Wait... what??? I have the strong opinion that you should add a toggle in the game options menu: Undies on/off. Right under the gib option...? And since we already have Big Head Mode...

As this topic arises the second time in this forum, I can no longer keep my question to all those with nudity problems for myself: That is no joke right? The only person that I know personally, that has serious problems with that kind of stuff is a member of a religious sect, so I have a hard time imagining, how one can have a problem with 2cm high figures on screen which are nude, meaning that you can see their buttocks (I love that word. Learned it from a Monty Python sketch). So what's that about? Is this a religious, a culture-specific or a personal thing? First, I did not complain about the presence of nudity in this game, I simply stated that I wasn't aware it was in the game when I purchased it and therefore didn't buy the game for it as the "let's all come clean" post suggested. Second, I don't actually have a problem with nudity in the game. I haven't been back to the bathhouse since because my character was hit on by an old man who wanted me to experience how "vigorous" the bathhouse waters made him and after reporting the man for using the bathhouse as his own personal brothel, my character decided he could take a bath in private by himself or with whomever he wanted and didn't need the bathhouse for that. EDIT: I should add that just because I don't have a problem with nudity in a game doesn't mean that I want to see it everywhere I go either. I don't purchase video games (or movies) for that kind of content because it simply doesn't interest me. I'm not put off by it, it's just not on my list of things to look for when purchasing a game. I will state that excessive nudity or adult themes can be a negative for me as again, it's not content that interests me. Fair enough.

He could just look at the bug section of the forums - then he wouldn't have to deal with wrongheadedness and obtuseness so much.

"No escape from dat nudity" would have been the real killer.

Besides resting and injuries: what I really don't like is that scrolls, bombs and especially potions (with a lot of Alchemy) are so good that your build quality and your "gaming skill" don't matter at all as long as you have consumables. Once I run into a "three red skulls" encounter I drop an empowered spell, gulp down some crazy potions and throw some grenades and that means I usually win.

Please don't waste precious patch time & space to fix something that isn't broken. You could instead redo the portrait because it looks not really like a drunk Mirke but more like "I just had a stroke" Mirke (daughter of Ricky Ballbao, famous Deadfire brawler of Vailian heritage).

My problem still is: I CAN'T INSTALL GAUN'S PLEDGE - FOR EOTHASSESSES SAKE!!!11eleven!! Wonder what the problem is. A lot of people seem to face the same "bug".

PotD is not very difficult (for a whole party) if you know the game in and out - even with scaling (although this makes some boss fights considerably tougher). Meta knowledge is a huge advantage - a lot more important than a good build or the perfect party composition. But if you don't have meta knowledge and know not much about how the mechanics actually work it will be very, very tough in some spots.

No, you have to install WMII but you can get her

Yeah, that might be an approach. Although then it's better than Blood Thirst (which comes at PL 7 and you have to kill for 0 recovery). It would be totally ok to rebuff the percentage value (currently it's 33%, used to be 50% I believe) but make sure that it can't cascade. So a bonus attack from Swift Flurry should not be able to proc another one.

It's obviously hiding under your capslock key.

You don't understand the problem. He's one-shotting whole groups without the use of any resource (besides 1 point of Mortification). Because Swift Flurry leads to an endless chain reaction. It doesn't matter how pitiful the damage per hit is - as long as if you get an endless amount of them. The more enemies you can hit the more likely it is to happen. One shot and - boom - everybody is dead. The probem is that Swift Flurry's bonus attacks can proc other Swift Flurry bonus attacks - and so on. Also works with Rod + Blast, Kalakoth's Minor Blights, the one unique pollaxe that lets you swirls around, Citzal's Spirit Lance and basically all AoE weapons.

One of the most counterproductive and self-defeating statements I've seen made, repeatedly.

The Paladin auras work on summons. Also Shared Flames (+20% burning lash for allies for 20 sec) work on summons. Stacks wth Mith Fyr (+15%). With a Troubadour you can run Mith Fyr + another phrase parallal without a gap. Also some invocations are a nice fit for a "Death Knight" or "Blackguard". Bleak Walker seems like a must. Wizard may be a nice multiclass option. It has several great self buffs and also several "evil" spells that evolve around draining (Concelaut's spell) as well as decay. Freeze spells are also there.

Story mode doesn't count Jerek.

Steam always starts the game when I download a DLC - no idea why. But in the background the DLC gets downloaded...

Awesome! Too bad I hacked Mirke to pieces...
