They make six thousand per week. You can beat me with a stick for that kind of money.

I just use a ranged weapon to kite everyone into the tanks. Works like a champ.

No, potions should restore Health. The rest, hell yeah!

Seems effective to me. I used kiting on almost every battle.I see. Well, your losing me with this bogeyman routine and why you keep referencing kill XP in this conversation is a mystery. Im not arguing slippery slope, Im not arguing semantics, and I don't have any idea how you came up with someone slipping something past me. Hell, if its not on this board then Im not even paying attention. Im simply pointing out that there is a literal difference between awarding XP incrementally or in one lump sum at the end. Objective XP and Quest XP are two different terms for a reason no matter how you try to obfuscate it. Well, unless your retort is "Crossing the threshold of the ogre cave was a quest".

Correction, that poll if for Objective XP, not Quest XP. Subtle but important difference. is not a meaningful difference. the current system is, for all intents and purposes, an objective xp mechanic. quibbles over nomenclature is silly, particularly when developers specific said that there would be no particular xp for "body count." in current build, folks got xp for simply entering the ogre cave. therefore, as can be seen, xp is not simple awarded for completion o' quest in even the current PoE builds. nevertheless, quibble over nomenclature is creating an issue that did not exist when the previous poll were formulated and is not meaningful now either. HA! Good Fun! edit: previous poll, not previous problem. Im not quibbling over nomenclature. In my borked game, I never received a single point of XP for any action. Other posters say they got XP for entering the ogre cave. So if that's how the system is going to work, incremental XP rewards doled out along the way vice one lump sum at the end of the "quest", then most people will be happy. Objective XP and Quest XP are completely different imo.- 129 replies

Huh? Iirc, Ive made three posts in this thread, none of which badmouth anyone. I haven't been following either but I think the silence is deafening.You are basing that determination on the less than 1% of backers that participate in the forums or you have another source you can link?- 129 replies

Did she deny it?Right or wrong, I absolutely use Metacritic as a contributing factor in deciding to buy a game. If its 80 or below I wont even bother reading the game description.Heh, I sometimes wonder about the 99% of backers that don't frequent the forum are going to react. I think a lot of backers simply took the "IE experience" at face value and while we can do a bunch of mental gymnastics to point out this or that feature, at the end of the day it doesn't feel IE-like to me. Were going to need more moderators in a few months...Interesting. I haven't tried that tactic but I assume that all the stun spells / abilities are on a "per encounter" setup? Then you just mow down the entire mook party while they are stunlocked?I greatly dislike wacky made up languages (usually with too many vowels). My brain cant be bothered trying to figure it out so I just make up some close approximation of what the word should be and then forevermore mispronounce it. Seriously, if it looks like Welsh or has too many accents / umlauts, then you're doing it wrong.95% of incoming attacks will cause some damage, of which 25% is Health damage. How are you attacking differently to prevent that?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...
