My idea (all names are completely arbitrary and for the sake of making the example; they can be changed to be anything): Say you have the "Community Fixpack" mod. The mod could easily be made "modular" by including different gamedatabundle files: core.gamedatabundle - Would include fixes that got 66%+ in the community poll. extended.gamedatabundle - Would include fixes that got between 50% and 66% in the community poll. It doesn't need to include fixes above 66% as the two files can be used simultaneously. extra.gamedatabundle - Would include the other fixes/changes you listed above. keywords.gamedatabundle - Would include Phenomenum's keyword fixes (which I assume would supersede this mod.) Provided that the contents of each file were adequately documented, it would then be very easy for users to customize their installation as they see fit (suffice to delete or avoid copying a file whose fixes you have no interest in.) In addition to the above, we could include a fix for English typos (which again would be easy to delete/avoid, though who wouldn't want proper grammar and punctuation in a text-heavy game? :)) My assumption is that Obsidian will be fixing most of what's been reported, but some typos might have been reported too late to make the patch. The easiest way to find them would be to work our way up backwards in the typo thread you linked, from the last reported typo all the way until we run into one that has already been fixed (which would mark the point to which Obsidian got.) I don't expect there to be many typos that need fixing.

Well, we can't change the VO but we can swap the character model and alter the text to say it's a woman. Or four components of the same mod (not that it would make a tremendous difference, to be honest) Let's see what MaxQuest says about typos. The first step is of course to wait for the patch and see how many typos were reported and left there. I suspect they won't be a great deal many, to the point that having a standalone mod just for those could feel a tad overkill. If that turned out to be the case, we could make it a component of the mod with the fixes.

Phenomenum, MaxQuest - What is the scope you had in mind for your fixpack mod? I'm asking because I doubt all our reported typos will make it to this week's patch, and I thought perhaps we could include a textual component in your mod that fixes any outstanding typos Obsidian won't address—as well as, possibly, minor bugs that it doesn't make sense to report at this stage (e.g. in Maia's quest you encounter a Huana in Tikawara who clearly speaks in a woman's voice, yet her character model is male.)

Missing verb. Should be "It is as..."

Interestingly, I never multiclass Xoti. I'm not overly fond of her Monk subclass and I generally prefer to have a Priest with faster progression and access to high-level spells. I love Tekehu as a pure class Druid, but also find high-level Druid spells to be rather underwhelming. I don't feel like I'm missing out on much by multiclassing him, and those Chanter phrases sure come in handy. Maia works really well as a Geomancer in my experience. OTOH, I'm curious about other people's experiences building Fassina. Does she work well as a Wizard/Druid?

Singular subject ("The flow") calls for singular verb ("makes"): Since we're talking about a single creature, it should be "the creature flees":

You can't reach PL 20 and take Prestige with a multiclass though, can you? On a mildly related note, do you like Vatnir better as a Rogue/Priest or pure-class Priest? IIRC, Priest of Rymrgand has a couple very good high-level spells.

"You" should be "Your"

We already knew the returns were poor when Fig paid the first tranche of dividends to investors in November. However, if the May–November time frame paid $192.67 and November–December added another $127.33 on top, you could say the game gained a fair momentum after all 3 DLCs were released. The last month and half in 2018 made almost as much as the five months that preceded it. This month there should be the second tranche of dividends from Fig; we'll see then how Deadfire did in 2019, with the release of TB mode.

If you want a dedicated healer on top of your tank, a Lifegiver Druid can fork out some pretty mean AoE healing (and bestow Robust in an AoE, which also grants passive healing over time.) EDIT: for ranged DPS, you could go for a Bleak Walker/Arcane Archer with Spearcaster. Boeroer elaborated on the concept in a different thread so I’ll leave it to him to go into details if you’re interested. It was a pretty nasty build, if memory serves.

Recently experienced this with Cosmo.

Josh's comment:

Nvm.

Looks good!

Re active abilities, I’m fine with anything that makes it easy to tell them apart at a glance. Understood re Wildstrike. I’m fine either way, personally.

IMO Wildstrike is fine as is. There are, however, a number of abilities granted by items that effectively “recycle” spell icons. I find that rather confusing. Take for example Shifting Chroma from the pearlescent stone: same icon as the Wall of Many Colors. Every time the ability triggers, I look at my character afraid to be standing in the AoE of an enemy’s debuff—instead, I’m actually being buffed. Appreciate it would be a rather large undertaking to give new icons to all those item abilities, but I’d like to put it forth for consideration as a worthy endeavor nonetheless.

Missing article (should be "It's a notoriously..."): Plural subject calls for plural verb ("has" should be "have"):

Hello, everyone. I've just found this thread and I haven't really gone through the whole six pages, so my apologies if this has already been brought up. I really like the new design (and I'm especially fond of the fact that the background is finally dark on mobile too), but it's pretty inconvenient that the forum does not remember me at all and there's no option for it. I have to log back in all the time. Also, I seem to be getting email notifications instead of forum notifications when threads I follow are answered to. I tried to remove the email notification option from my account settings, but I'm still notified via email. I liked the old forum notifications better, but currently I can't seem to get them.

Yup. Just run into this issue yesterday with the latest patch.

Count me in with those who hope PoE 3 will come. I would prefer it be a party-based isometric game like the first two as that's my preferred genre; to date, I've been unable to finish an aRPG regardless of its quality (that includes The Witcher 3, arguably one of the best aRPG released.) But so long as I can purchase the game from GoG, I'll buy anything that has the PoE brand as I want to see where the lore goes.

Should be "yer as old as me" (which is what the VO clearly says.)

Hopefully they can sneak in the fix in the upcoming patch—if nothing else because it's very likely to be the last one. Else we'll always have fixpack mods to turn to.

Are there really more enemies that are immune to slash and pierce than there are enemies immune to crush? Going by memory since my last playthrough was ages ago but IIRC flat-out immunities to the three main damage types are relatively rare across the board.

Druid’s 1/5 PL9 spell is Aspect of Galawain already; don’t need a second one

Modwyr's ability to stack action speed upon hitting an enemy shows up as "missing string" in build 4.1.2
