Fun Martial Class for Multiclasses with Wizard?
If I can, I prefer to be the support / tanker / debuffer actually. Since I've been the DD for the first 2 runs and I think it could be more challenging and fun if I had to use my team to deal damage. Fighter will be the tankiest, Paladin will bring support, Monk brings plenty of tanky and some other stuff.

Fun Martial Class for Multiclasses with Wizard?
Any really, Wizard self-buffs are the best in the game imo and work well with martial classes. Are you looking to be a frontline character who supplements with magic or are you looking to boost your casting?

Caster lovers, how do you deal with the 3-4.5sec casting times?
Factoring in weapon recovery times, casting isn't too much longer. To deal with it I usually stick casters in the back row.

What do you want to see in the franchise
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Dodo00d's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I actually think it'd be really cool to do something like that, but with a connection between protagonists--with the second game starting off with you being Awakened as the reincarnation of the protagonist of the first game, and the third game having you Awaken with the the past lives of both the second and first protagonist. Not the same person, not at all...but with the same soul. I was thinking something similar, but I either want it to be more low key or really tie into it, like you're hunting down the same person or conflicting with the same organization. Mostly though I want to see Eora evolve beyond the current setting and showcase the world changing. And also do weird stuff like beating up scabs with a Brawler or foiling a megacorp's plan to make a god out the board of directors or fighting an undead fleet in space.

What do you want to see in the franchise
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Dodo00d's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I think the Watcher's story is done, and would like to retire them or maybe do an expansion where you kill the gods or something. Getting knocked down to level 1 again would be dumb. I'd like to see a trilogy that goes from Wild West/Industrial to Modern/Near Future to Space Age settings within Eora, all with different protagonists who don't necessarily have anything to do with one another and adjusting mechanics to accomodate new technology and the changing setting.

For those who've beat it, what are your thoughts?
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Verde's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)I liked it a lot more than I liked PoE at launch, hopefully it improves in a similar manner. Will probably go achievenent hunting with new dlc for berath blessings, but won't start a proper new game until DLCs and patches are released. Issues Main Story is ok, but easily overshadowed by the other **** to do. Doesn't really seem connected other than the factions wanting to get to Huana El Dorado. No game breaking bugs, so far only had some visual and audio issues. Still annoying. Party assist for checks needs review, it's dumb my party members can't give me a hand with certain interactions when they're right there. Balance needs a major overhaul, as I'm sure all of you are aware. Party reputation is weird and there's some headscratching incidents. I like the idea in theory but in execution I'm not convinced. Lack of sea monsters, 1 kraken battle is a shame. Sources of inspirations/afflictions seem all over the place, would be nice to see more sources. Empower and Power Level favor offensive casters, ideally all abilities should be influenced by them. As is I'm not empowering melee attacks or buffs and using it only on spells or to restore resources. There's a lack of information on the proficency screen and not a good dispersement of unique weapons, this means that without metagame knowledge it's possible to build yourself into a corner. In DLC I'd like to see underrepresented items get some uniques and through patching be able to see base damage, abilities, etc. for weapons in proficiency selection.

Whispers ot Endless Paths Cone Size and Intelligence
Yeah but that's with buffing Int, assuming the user doesn't have high int or ability to get it the cone is fairly lackluster. If don't use IwVE on my battlemage with 14 int the cone is a little underwhelming, but still good for close quarters.

Whispers ot Endless Paths Cone Size and Intelligence
Yeah, but it's a fairly small cone.

What should I spend my money on?

2H swords useless in PoTD after patch?
I think 2 handers should have 2 higher pen than slow 1 handed melee weapons(fast 1 h should have 1 lower pen than slow 1 h) and that the dual damage weapons should not have the 1 pen penalty.
-
Deadfire...in spaaaaaaaaace?
I'd like to see a trilogy that follows reincarnations across centuries and goes Fantasy Western > Fantasy Near-Future > Space Fantasy. After Deadfire's ending I don't think there's much left for the watcher to do and would like to see the watcher retire instead of getting knocked back to lvl 1 again.
-
2H swords useless in PoTD after patch?
I've been arguing the first point since beta, along with fast 1h weapons having 1 lower pen. Agree with the second point, versatile damage shouldn't come with a penalty.

Whispers of Endless Path
So now it only hits the target twice and the rest of the cone takes the low base damage? How does it stack up to other Greatswords like Voidwheel and Sanguine Greatsword post patch?

How to make mutiny happen?
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to bugarup's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Stories (Spoiler Warning!)Take out food, drink, and money and just go around in circles. It takes an unreasonable amount of time for it to trigger, but it will.

Carnage and Whispers of the Endless Paths
I'm considering doing a Barbarian greatsword build and I was wondering how carnage works with Whispers of the Endless Paths. Does it apply carnage for both hits or just does it use the relatively low base damage once? What about for abilities like Barbaric Blow or HoF?

Politics' Official Eighteenth Thread
Bruh, chivalry is just holding the door open and picking up the tab. I doubt most normal women are thinking of feudal standards and **** when they talk about chivalry being dead.

Politics' Official Eighteenth Thread
You're right. No such thing as a focus on gender studies or similar. If anything the focus is on... business degrees. Note also the decrease in math and education degrees conferred. I guess that even casually mistaking the twatterverse for the real world is as good a sign as I'm going to get that I should get the **** off the internet. Yeah, business degrees are a lot more common than whatever incels and JBP fans are butthurt about. A large part of the problem too, most are training for some sort of management and the result has been a decrease in stemlords, and even those positions are now in competition with 2nd and 3rd world wages due to the magic of globalization which further pushes into business degrees. Such is the will of the market. Okay, so, correct me if I'm getting any of this wrong... Your problem is that the government has the power to create legislation that unduly favors those with the power and influence to buy their favor, which the disempowered workers can't do. Your proposed solution is to negate the government's ability to do so. This would presumably bring about a change, because then the workers would still be without power and influence, but the rich would be... deprived from one of the vectors to exert theirs, leaving all the rest? How is that supposed to help? The free market will balance **** out despite accumulation being intrinsic to capitalism and the state protecting the interests of the upper class has been a constant since at least the slave empires. And if it doesn't **** it as long as the age of consent is abolished for voluntary transactions between parties.

Learn to take a joke snowflake. I suppose some got over it, but others still meltdown to red scare tier hysteria over the mention of public healthcare. Strangely enough this is bipartsian, with certain Democrats thinking anyone left of neoliberalism is a Russian plant who ruined Hillary's coronation.
