Gfted1

Does Sensuki get experience for his successful sneaking attempt? I don't think the quest has been completed yet but when it is he will... Whoa whoa guys, tap the brakes. Nobody told Sensuki to look for those audio files, so as we all know, its as worthless as fighting beatles.

I equip my Mage or Rogue with a ranged weapon, shoot a mook, and then run behind my Paladin and BB Fighter. Once everyone has dogpiled into the center I just autoattack until its over. Occasionally Ill use Knockdown but I get an annoying sound effect loop when I use it so its very rare, only when I get bored watching the autoattack. I try to position the Rogue to do Roguey things while Knockdown is in effect but Im not sure if anything is working. I'll sometimes try to use that Paladin ability that adds 1 BILLION percent damage but its only good for one round (?) and I cant determine if Im supposed to activate the ability, wait for a round and then attack or if Im supposed to activate the ability and then target the mook for it to work. Too many slight variants of the caster class spells usually means I wind up using none of them.

Alligator tastes like chicken. Seriously. At least when fried.

Oh the rending of cloth and the gnashing of teeth that would take place...

What side of the road do you drive on in Austria?

It looks like it could incorporate two checks? I kept failing the "climb down while carrying the egg" portion, which makes sense since I usually only put 10 in Con. Although, BB Fighter also fell on the climb down, but Im not sure what his Con score is.

I was under the impression that the higher difficulty levels simply generated higher rank / more mooks. Have you noticed a difference in enemy tactics (the bum rush) or gameplay speed when you play the higher difficulty levels?

^True dat. Well, besides ease (I was playing on Easy), it was more convenient for me to just autoattack. Things were too close to AoE and even though I like to micro the party, I found the pace too fast and requiring too many pauses and updates to bother with the abilities (although Id like to buy the guy/gal that created the Rogue teleport a beer). Theres a lot of things I hope shape up in Beta v2.

Will PoE feature Romance or Kill XP? (I kid) What attribute / skill is checked when attempting to retrieve the dragon egg?

You eying a Tesla?

Huh, I thought success or failure was based on Athletics.

You can rest in dungeons in PoE.

That's a bit of a double edged sword to me. No, I don't think ~200 poll results should represent the majority. On the other hand, I feel that people that take the time to register an account and take place in the discussions clearly have a more passionate relationship to the product and perhaps their thoughts would carry a little extra weight. Not necessarily that Obs would rework major systems, but not complete derision to the concerns either.

Whaaaaa? You can use the grapple hook and rope to get the egg? I was never given a choice other than who should physically climb up. Everyone made it up but everyone fell while climbing down with the egg.

By checking how many people downloaded it off Steam?

Im not sure that we have a clear picture of how it works yet. I believe PrimeJunta has posted receiving 1500XP upon entering the Ogre cave but in my buggy experience, I never earned a single XP point (that I noticed) and couldn't even turn in the quests. Im hoping beta v2 is more stable so I can get a better picture of what the hell is actually going on.

Im a bit jealous of Gromnir. Id love a chompy red demon named Gfted1 to be in a game. Maybe they will hold another Fan Fiction contest like Calax won and got into FO:NV? Alas, I lack any writing skill or imagination.

Because someone told you to kill the Ogre. Duh.

So you're going to order the parts and do the work yourself to save the other persons insurance company money?

BG2 at least offered the Quiver of Plenty +1/+2 and a bow and sling that didn't require ammo at all. But yeah, otherwise it was arrows out the wazoo.

Ah, that must be the secret sauce. As an experiment, I equipped BB Fighter with an arbalest and I noticed he would get interrupted fairly frequently while furiously trying to rewind the crossbow. Im not sure what BB Fighter's Resolve level is but interesting to see that it does make a difference.

In this case, weren't you then standing in melee range while reloading the pistol? Didn't you take a beating / interrupts while reloading?

I prefer a grid or encumbrance based system as it just seems more natural to me. On the other hand, with Camping Supplies going for 300 each, Im going to need as much cash as possible.

What did you think of last season (Coven)?

Im not going to lie, Im loving not dealing with ammunition.
