Im already irritated by the spelling (vampyr) but Ive never played a vampire RPG before so this has me interested.

Hells yeah for cheat codes. I don't think PoE combat is my cuppa so god mode may be the only way I see the end of the game.

Meh, Im going to treat getting maimed the same as dying, Powerword: Reload. OTOH, I believe simply resting cures all maimings too so I guess I don't have to reload when I can rest spam w/ Sensuki's unlimited camping supply mod.

Made her unkillable until you left Irenicus' dungeon.

Technically, that first part where you get swarmed is called a Trial. How you perform in the Trial will set the Keystone level and determine the difficulty starting point of the Greater Rift.

If you fail to complete the GR (kill the guardian) before time runs out then you can only upgrade the Gem, the Keystone will be locked out and consumed. If you complete the GR in time, you can choose which to upgrade, Gem or Keystone, but not both. Choosing one locks out the other. How your party performs in the Trial will determine the starting level of the Keystone. Upgrading becomes more difficult the higher the level of the Gem. To level up the first 10 levels or so is relatively easy, almost any level of GR will suffice. The closer you get to 25 the higher level GR you have to complete. When you choose to upgrade your Gems you will see a % success rate when you select it. Higher level Gems have a lower % success rate to upgrade so you need progressively higher GR to upgrade higher level Gems. And yes, any level Gem is better than not using it. You do not have to wait until 25 to feel the benefits. You will notice there are two stat lines per Gem, before 25 and including 25. The before 25 stat line upgrades with every Gem level increase.

Dat belt...

I think the legendary gems only drop in GR's. There are lots of them and they drop frequently. All three of the ones I use have been leveled to a minimum of 25, which can also only be done in GR's, just fyi.

I haven't played PoE since beta v1.0, have quick slots been removed? With up to four quick slots it seems every possible eventuality can be accounted for; one set for slashing weapon, one for crushing, one for piercing and one for....?

Definitely need a "Take all" button. With inventory being meaningless you would be stupid to not gather every bauble. A "Sell all" button would be appreciated too.

Agreed. Out of the three KS project that I backed (SRR, PoE, D:OS), SRR was the most fun for me by a huge margin. I purchased Dragonfall but never played it and Ill most likely wait for SR:HK to hit Steam before I buy it.

What happened Rosbjerg? EDIT: Nevermind, saw whats wrong in a post from 12 Jan. Glad you're feeling better!

Grinding? Provided I can stomach the combat Ill be doing a completionist run anyway. Hahahahahahaha, suck it everyone that has less xp than me. But you can always console it in to not be "cheated" by the game for not doing everything. :winkyface:

Unfortunately, the only way to solve this "issue" is to reward all players the same xp no matter how much or how little they did in the game.

Huh, I hadn't heard about the "cant drop stuff". Whats up with that? So you can only empty your bags by selling stuff? At the end of the day I guess its meaningless since we have unlimited carry capacity but still a bit kooky, imo. My vote for bad design decision; no Healing capabilities.

So, we know the level disparity between a completionist run and a core run will be ~4 levels. Ermahgerd! Someones getting more xp than someone else! IT WILL BREAK THE GAME1!!1UNO11!!

Dunno.

I had a chicken pot pie there a few weeks ago and it was fine. The place that set my stomach to rumbling is White Castle.

I believe an "expansion" was already funded by the KS, so theres that. As for PoE2 it probably depends on the success of PoE?

How do they "confirm" a kill? Someone else had to see it or just whatever the sniper says happened?

Im sure there was lots of red, white and blue poured into the movie but I found a few points striking:

American Sniper. Pretty good even though I already knew the story. Bradley Cooper is a dead ringer for real guy and his acting chops get better in every movie, imo.

Is there a Stoneskin type spell in the game? Meaning, a protection spell that completely absorbs hits and comes off in layers instead of coming off after one hit / few seconds?

6'1" / 220 Lb? Sounds right.

Havent mages been pretty much neutered? Down from nukers to "mob control" or something like that. Are there any enemy Ciphers / Chanters in the enemy BB parties (I cant remember)? They are probably much more dangerous anyway.
