Baldur's Gate 2 > PoE 2 Deadfire
Verde replied to Walkyr's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Erm... extremely high. I have a working memory after all. A better question would be "what is the likelihood you still play Deadfire in five years?" The answer to that largely depends on how its final version ends up. I will say that BG2 used to be a game that I'd replay every year or so but, since PoE's release, I've had very little desire to do so. I simply prefer playing PoE. That doesn't stop BG2 being one of my favourite games, but I don't feel the need to replay it any more. I don't think my mind will ever take me back to Deadfire unless something is somehow related. It's a REALLY fun game to play but almost entirely forgettable imho.

Verde replied to Walkyr's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)What is the likelihood you remember Deadfire even 5 years from now? I still remember great moments in BG2.

Sooo...Arcane Knight seems really strong...esp with whatsitcalled staff
Yeah Gilded can essentially take the place of Iron Skin. Also from a RP perspective, Goldpact and Bleak Walkers are true mercenaries. I can't get myself to play one as the MC but love making them custom.

Pathfinder Kingmaker is bigger then Deadfire
Looks cool but Deep Silver seriously needs to redeem themselves. They completely f-ed Sacred.

[Bug] Map is full of fog after Splintered Reef...may have reset?
Wow, this one takes the cake lol. I believe the entire map reset after I left Splintered Reef...the locations are still there but it's covered in fog and the minor locations are back. What gives?

Yeah Trickster is like an Illusionist/Rogue. Let's hope Obsidian let's them be My Trickster/Beguiler can handle about anything.

What specific process did the Engwithans use to create the Gods?
But they didn't have the tone of whiny teenagers.

[Final Copy] "The Company Man" Ranged Mindstalker (Assassin/Ascendant) for Heavy Immersion Company RP
Hmm good question re: Assassinate, honestly not sure! I don't think the Assassin penalty is that bad tho. It just means you need to be more mindful - not entirely sure how it works from ranged. I'm prob a broken record but I think Trickster got buffed immensely so much so it renders vanilla Rogue undiserable. Anyway, I think you can make Assassin work.

Best ranger companion - also, can you change?
Deadfire tweaks mod fixes up the ranger tree a bit and adds their modals from the first game. That’s what I’m using at least. Now I can ignore the pet and still feel satisfied until I am not. The Ranger should have the Wilder perk from the Barb Tree.

Whats best solo PotD Wizard build now (no multiclass)?
I mean any Wizard that uses Empowered Meteor Storm. That spell is hilariously powerful.

Decent ranged dps - advice needed
The main reason to run Streetfighter is for the -50% Recovery Speed which is easily activated by using the Blunderbuss modal. Whether you dual wield or not is really up to preference. I personally think dual wielding eventually wins out in damage, but one-handed can be good early game when accuracy is an issue. But the model hurts your Perception and Accuracy correct?

Trickster is more a ranged class than Assassin, no? Or do you plan on assassinating at close range? I guess it makes more sense from a RP perspective. I wish I could offer Assassin advice. Looking forward to seeing progress.

What are some improvements that could be made to Assassin? (Polling for a mod)
I think it's fine. Plenty of ways to not get hit. Why ranged? That might be your problem there.

Yeah Goldpact or Bleak Walkers!

Picking a Ranger and ignoring the pet seems to make the Ranger even worse lol

Anyone try an Oracle?
Hmm good ideas, wondering how I can make it work from a RP perspective.
