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?

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?

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.

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.

What did you do today?
I got drunk and ended up watching Atlanta instead of meeting with a girl I've been texting. A wise decision imo.

Threatening to launch a coup certainly won't incentivize NK to give up nukes, especially they have precedent to believe Trump won't keep his side of the deal with his actions concerning Iran. What a ****ing idiot.

Assassinate and Back stab only work with first weapon strike if duel wielding
It was like that in the beta, and Assassin would probably favor single handed to ensure crits.

the decision to not give casters a lot of spells (like POE1)
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to moxsapphire's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I'm fine with it, Deadfire casters are now like D&D spontaneous casters or PoE Ciphers and Chanters in terms of spell breadth. The spells seem to be about the same amount as before too, so casters still have a lot of spells with potentially 4(5 for wizard with grimoire) per spell level for single class that forgo passives. I don't understand the complaint about confusion with too much choice, given that the amount of choice is increased for Priests and Druids and around the same for Wizards once you factor in the loss of learning from Grimoires.

Ciphers have the same base mechanics as a Rogue, so you can.

The First Impressions Thread
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Sedrefilos's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Barely played it, but here goes: Beginning takes too long, similarly to NuTorment. Cool as it is, an option to skip straight to character creation and waking up would be nice for future playthroughs. Weapon Proficiency should show more information than the modal. With the changes made to weapons from PoE it would help to have a description there. I can understand the reasoning behind no passives at lvl 1, but I don't like it for whatever reason. Could use more portraits, especially for non-human races. It's pretty. Complete VA grates me after a while because I read fast, but so far sounds good. Combat feels much better than the beta. Pacing feels faster, which I enjoy. I haven't looked too hard, but I didn't notice any story related abilities from PoE, imo they should return with levels. Spells look way cooler. I'll play more later, but so far really digging it.

Well, Kim Jong Un allegedly said that he doesn't care about the fate of the Iran deal, so, it's unclear exactly how much it will affect things, but the entire fact of it is still going to be in the back of his mind. And yeah, as terrible as this whole strategy is (if you can call it a strategy), that's Trump's America First for ya. I think Zor is spot on, NK has precedent to assume that the US will not honor any deals made and that will significantly impact the decision to continue the nuclear program. So far peace with NK has come without input from the US and I'd predict seeing a friendlier relationship, if not unity in a confederation scheme, between the Koreas while NK stays hostile towards the US.

The extreme left wants to arm themselves and the NRA (and Reagan)supported gun control when it was aimed at them. Cocaine Cowboy will do the same and I can't think of a more fitting representation of the NRA than someone known for smuggling in drugs to support terrorists because they were butthurt the extreme left overthrew a military dictatorship.
