Waiting is your choice but no game is 100% perfect. If that is what you are waiting for, could be a long wait. For me, I am not bothered by anything not working correctly. In fact, I would be hard pressed to name anything that caused me any difficulty in the game recently, I am on my sixth play through.

The Chanter does have one nice feature. I played as a Herald once and the Chanter half always called in three Wurms to help the party right at the start of combat.

Thanks

I did not encounter that drake wing sound, it was normal. So either it has been fixed or it might depend on your game setup. I am playing Path of the Damned with a full party.

Okay, then I must congratulate the modder because he/she did a great job on it. It is not overpowered and break the game. I have some weapons that are part of the official game that are more powerful, especially great swords. These allow my wizard to stand behind the front line and do ranged attacks from relative safety.

That is a nice single hand crossbow. One of my companions is armed with two of them as superb weapons. He does pretty good damage.

There are now master captain ships from all factions sailing about. Has anyone attacked them and do you get anything special from them?

I am in the middle of my sixth playthrough, probably my last one for a while. The game is different each time depending on the choices you make and who is in your party. For instance, this is the first time I got the Voidwheel great sword. Now if I can remember where to get the ring.

They are a hard fight, but they are meant to be hard. The biggest reward is the ability to make a weapon or armor mythic. Arguably not very useful because you are pretty much at the end of the game when you are strong enough to fight them. I think the point of them is to get you out of your comfort zone when you fight them because what you have done for the whole game will probably not work here. You can beat them, I have, but your strategy needs to be different. And they are entirely optional to the game. Just there for the folks that want an extra challenge.

I have played the game several times and not encountered very many bugs. The only one I can recall at the moment is that sometimes the game will crash and send me back to the game start menu or the desktop but I am blaming that on the couple mods I have included. If you are going to wait until the game is 100% bug free, that might be a long wait because no games are bug free. Some games are actually released with several game breaking bugs, thankfully Obsidian is not one of those companies.

I had to send a saved game to Obsidian to fix. They did and returned the save in a couple days.

The mega bosses will always be 3 skull monsters and whatever fighting method you used till meeting one won't work. You will need to devise a new strategy.

I have a Spellblade (wizard/rogue) and the AI is set for the wizard half to be aggressive and the rogue half to be cautious. I set it this way so he would use his spellbook, but he always attacks with his weapons never the spellbook. Do I need to set something else to get him to fight with the spellbook. Do I need to arm him with a wand for instance?

I had asked a question a while ago why my team was ignoring my AI settings which were set for aggressive, yet they just stood there with three dots above them. I did not see a button on the lower left of the screen and that button overrides the AI settings. Once I set that to aggressive my problem was solved.

Neketaka does have a lot of quests, I just discovered the merchant who sells pets!

Who has a favorite part of this game? I do and it is kind of a silly one and not important to the story at all but it touches me every time. It is the story of the marooned folks that turn to cannibalism to survive. The part that gets me is the narrative about the first mate Elewys in the journal and her locket. The first time I read the journal entry I stopped for several minutes reading it over and over. I always make sure to do that scene and give the journal to the Watcher in case I want to read it again. I don't know why it affects me like it does, but it still does. Anyone else have a favorite part of the game?

Seraphen is usually the companion I drop after his quest is done but I just bought the expensive weapon at the gunsmith's shop in the Citadel so I will see what happens this time. I don't mind Xoti, her banter and flirting is amusing.

I haven't yet, either it flies away or I kill it.

Are the scavenger hunt codes still a viable quest? The scavenger hunt was run before the game was released.

I downloaded PoE2 through Steam, which is where I get most of my games. I can start PoE2 with the game shortcut or from Steam. Steam is a useful game server because it will automatically install any patches or updates without you having to do anything, you also get an online backup at Steam so you don't lose all your game saves if something terrible happens plus if you buy the game through Steam it knows you did that so a reinstall is free (with all saved games). You can also get a discount sometimes when buying a game. How you get it after the fact I am not sure of. I would suggest installing the Steam software and create an account, then possibly have it search your computer for games that it knows about. Someone here probably knows how.

That is what I had always heard, BoW was for levels 14-16. I went there once at level 18 and that dragon was still a hard fight.

You asked if Eder gets a pet, he does. That makes two pets. I don't remember if that comes with the last DLC or a Berath's Blessing.

If you keep the soul of Porokoa you get to make one more mythic item. Not really a big deal this close to the end of the game.

Character creation is a major part of this game, there is no absolutely perfect PC that fits everyone. Just the one that fits your game style, don't get hung up tweaking your PC or you will never get to play with that PC. If it is not happening the way you want, you can always restart the game with something different.

Thanks, that helps.
