Whispers of the Endless Path's AoE works with Swift Flurry again
Yup. Coming to a Nexus near you this very weekend, if that guy @Phenomenum is to be believed

Whispers of the Endless Path's AoE works with Swift Flurry again
Isn’t that a side effect of the community patch’s fix for sneak attack, perchance?

I also dislike chores but why take them away from people who are willing to go through them?

Hooray! Day one endorsement from me

"Issues with Nvidia Graphics Cards" - Fixed?
AndreaColombo replied to ahmbor's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Technical Support (Spoiler Warning!)Game also suffers from memory leaks that degrade performance over time rather significantly. Would be great if that could be ameliorated.

BUG Gift from the machine not givin after quest
AndreaColombo replied to DragorTheDrake's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Technical Support (Spoiler Warning!)It’s called Gift from the Machine in Deadfire as well.

"Issues with Nvidia Graphics Cards" - Fixed?
AndreaColombo replied to ahmbor's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Technical Support (Spoiler Warning!)Likewise, I have an i7 4790k and even when framerates drop below 60, my cores are far from 100% used. In the immortal words of Jon Irenicus, there is much untapped power.

AndreaColombo replied to DragorTheDrake's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Technical Support (Spoiler Warning!)Why not use the Unity Console to give yourself the talent?

All Plate Armour
AndreaColombo replied to DragorTheDrake's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I'm in a similar predicament with Pathfinder: Kingmaker, where I want to plan my fashion game ahead of starting and there are no damn screenshots of the equipment anywhere XD Thing is, going in and taking screenshots just for the sake of showing the equipment is actually pretty tedious, so the easiest way to see them is to just use cheats (or the Unity Console) to give yourself the armors in-game and don them.

[Mod] Tint God
AndreaColombo replied to Fhav6X's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire: Modding (Spoiler Warning!)This is from Cohh Carnage's pre-release playthrough (unfortunately back then it wasn't possible to zoom in on the character's face, but it's clear that his eyes look like in the screenshot above and not bright green as they do now—I linked the exact time stamp):

Best melee dps build and Best 2h build
For me it's the hit-to-crit conversion and great looks. Its ability "Prepare the offering" is also pretty good. Voidwheel outputs higher DPS if you mitigate the self-damage.

Patch Notes for 5.0.0
I think the recipe doesn't need to be bought; it should already be available to you via the crafting menu.

AndreaColombo replied to Matt Sheets's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)That's accurate.

Summoned greatsword builds - could use some advice
Also if you’re keen on using Firebrand, you can craft the scroll relatively cheaply and it only requires 2 Arcana (of which one can be acquired from a trainer), so you don’t need to be a Druid.

Best melee dps build and Best 2h build
Actually Rogues in this game don’t rely on attacks from stealth/invisibility all that much. Only the Backstab ability works that way, and you can choose not to pick it. Sneak Attack and Death Blows both activate if your target has Afflictions, which ideally you’ll want to bestow anyway.

[Mod] Tint God
AndreaColombo replied to Fhav6X's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire: Modding (Spoiler Warning!)Unfortunately I don't have a screenshot from before that patch (I think it was 1.2), but the change was most definitely not deliberate: When they introduced that feature, my character's eyes also defaulted to green (I assume because their previous default color was no longer a viable option.) Tekehu's eyes were fully black at release, matching his portrait.

[Mod] Tint God
AndreaColombo replied to Fhav6X's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire: Modding (Spoiler Warning!)Since we're talking tints, I'll try my luck with a request. Would it be possible for you to change Tekehu's eyes back to their original black color? Ever since Obsidian introduced the ability to change your character's eye color, Tekehu's eyes have defaulted to green in stark contrast with both his portrait and in-game text. I reported the issue right away but it wasn't fixed, and it bothers me way more than it should.

Likewise, I would like the ability to edit posts indefinitely. Never been a fan of arbitrary time limits, especially when it comes to editing my own words. I also support @Ethics Gradient's request to extend the login timeout.

Deadfire Polishing Poll
Not a huge difference, but with version 3 some borders are slightly visible from the round icons. All in all, in my opinion version 2 was the best. The icon for Weapon Specialization is a red circle within a white square for some reason (same between version 2 and 3.)

Deadfire Polishing Poll
They look really good (especially Shifting Chroma) One thing: I'm using @MaxQuest's mod Spoils of Caed Nua to bring back some items from the first game. One of them is the Cloak of the Tireless Defender, which grants bonus Constant Recovery. Is it possible to make that ability use the same icon as Rapid Recovery? Last thing. This is pretty minor, but some of the icons appear to have a black border on top when placed inside a square. I took a screenshot for Watershaper, although I believe Helwalker actually makes it more obvious: Not sure whether it can be helped.

SC Helwalker was using fists. My intention when I hired the SC Helwalker merc was not to do a direct comparison between it and the Brawler; I just wanted to try WotW with the cloak. In doing so, I realized the Helwalker just felt more powerful and generally more satisfying to play despite lacking a lot of additional bonuses that my Watcher had (e.g. stat boost from Berath's Blessings, Gift from the Machine, etc.) As for speed, I use Faster Deadfire and stacking bonuses stops being effective after a while. Sure, I could stack another bonus to shave another 0.1 or 0.2 from my recovery, but 0.1/0.2 hardly make a difference. If you use Berath's Blessings to unlock Edér's pet slot and give him Nalvi, then use either Abraham or Cutthroat Cosmo for the Watcher with Armored Grace, you remove the recovery penalty completely from medium armor. EDIT: Just tried Streetfighter / Priest of Berath and it is a killing machine against mobs. I was hoping to play Tekehu as a SC Druid this time, but I'll probably need the Wisp summon to get Flanked against bosses.

Forgot to mention Dragon's Dowry, which has the Fire keyword. It is. This appears to have worked

@Phenomenum - Appears to be the same icons every time.
