BUG: Binding Belt unnamed in combat log
AndreaColombo replied to Mygaffer's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Technical Support (Spoiler Warning!)At least it proc's for you! XD for me it does nothing. EDIT: My saved game and output.log are in this other report about the same item. This appears to be related.

characters moving awkward
AndreaColombo replied to a post in a topic in Pillars of Eternity: Technical Support (Spoiler Warning!)Settings are kept in Window's registry. If you clean it up after uninstalling the game, settings should reset.

I love the +2 Survival on the Sanguine Plate, actually. Now that bonuses from Survival are so good, a boost is always welcome. Don't think I've ever given +2 to a stat with the plate; just packing DR like a buffalo

Act 3 difficulty?
AndreaColombo replied to Brimsurfer's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Indeed, PoE levels matter more than D&D levels but that's because you gain too much, not because you gain tout court Matt's analysis explained why there are so many levels between completionist and non-completionist runs in PoE, whereas that was not the case in I.E. games.

I still like Sanguine Plate better even if the color scheme on that character is less suited to it. That armor just looks good. but yeah, there's no accounting for personal taste. Do the ondrite monks actually drop their blue/indigo outfits? Would be perfect for my Hulk Smash build.

3.01 bug: twisted troll
AndreaColombo replied to Madscientist's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Technical Support (Spoiler Warning!)I've had this happen to me several times since 2.0 but it seems to happen erratically. Could never find reliable repro steps. I fought that troll earlier this evening and had the exact same issue, though.

Nothing looks better than Sanguine Plate and you know it Personally I've found Maegfolc Skull acceptable on human models with the Aedyran striped clothes. With plate it looks rather asinine, though.

You'd be surprised what lengths I can go to justify using mechanically subpar equipment because it looks good

Maxed out Party at start of WM2
You can still duplicate it with the Helwax Mold, "force Azzuro's hand" by making in-game time pass until he shows up with a second Rimecutter to sell, or reach 0 recovery with a scale armor.

It's not that bad either; can be handy against dragons.

Legendary items
Superb + lash deals a lot more damage (and frankly +3 Accuracy from Legendary isn't really a big deal.) Not sure I agree with "the best weapons are the ones with a single enchant that can support both legendary and a lash." There are unique enchants that make a lot more difference than +3 Accuracy / +10% damage, which is what Legendary brings to the table versus Superb.

Act 3 difficulty?
AndreaColombo replied to Brimsurfer's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)^ I don't mind that your stats increase at level up. That's actually what traditional level-up does, where by "traditional" I mean "D&D style" (D&D being the most commonly widespread and recognized fantasy RPG system.) The problem this game has is in the massive difference in power level between completionists and non-completionists. Matt516 explained it very well in a thread where he analyzed the XP curve in PoE vs. the XP curve in IE games back in the day. If you balance the game against casual playthroughs in which little more than critical path is done, you can't also balance it against completionist playthroughs that end up 5-6 levels higher and have better equipment.

On the Readceran Watcher dude (can't recall his name.) You can only get it if you opt for the non-peaceful solution.

AndreaColombo replied to a post in a topic in Pillars of Eternity: Technical Support (Spoiler Warning!)^ If you have a nVidia video card, you can use Shadow Play. It works pretty well.

[PX2 3.1] Azzuro refers to female protagonist as "Lord"
AndreaColombo replied to AndreaColombo's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Technical Support (Spoiler Warning!)On a related note, there appear to be two more instances in which female protagonists are referred to as "lord" in the scripted interaction of the Yenwood battle:

Abydon's Hammer not applying damage multipliers
AndreaColombo replied to Smugbot's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Technical Support (Spoiler Warning!)Aarik, for the record, it appears that Twin String and The Unlabored Blade also aren't pegged as universal. Not sure whether you're already aware so I figured I'd drop a line here.

Lavender Wreath + Binding Rope Interaction
AndreaColombo replied to lantzk's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Technical Support (Spoiler Warning!)Unfortunately it looks like it's a bug with Binding Rope—it just never applies the Stuck affliction. SAVED GAME: link OUTPUT LOG: link REPRO STEPS: Load the attached saved game. Select Edér and go to his inventory. Observe he is wearing Binding Rope, which applies the Stuck affliction for 3 seconds to enemies who hit him. Back to the game, proceed forward and enter combat against the Alguls. Send Edér in to fight and wait for the Alguls to hit him. Observe the Stuck affliction is never applied.

Not sure, but I suspect you must kill with Steadfast specifically to trigger it. By the way, I'm having Edér dual-wield Steadfast and The Unlabored Blade too, and I don't think the latter ever triggered Firebug. Has it triggered for you? Just triggered for me. EDIT: While we're at it, is the Binding property of the binding rope even working?
