What a terrifying law. I wonder what will be next on the list to prevent to protect the UK citizens from. And Im absolutely sure that calling your ISP and removing the filter will flag you for something.

Hmm, I never picked up the Chaos War saga after the Rift War saga. How would you say the two compare? God I loved the parts with Thomas(?) and how his magical chainmail was a repository of power from a long dead highly magical race. Hmm, now Im talking myself into re-reading that whole series again...but I still have WoT to catch up on. Decisions...

None that Im aware of. I found it on the internet back in 2004 and have never changed it.

I would never do such a thing! Good day SIR!

Just in case you didn't figure it out yet, you have to cycle through the Riggers weapons until you get to their bots. Then you will see an "on" switch which disengages the bot from follow mode and puts it into free attack mode. Beware, each active bot uses one of the Riggers AP points to function so in the early game before you get 3 AP, its possible to have both bots active and your Rigger just standing there. Be sure to stash him around a corner or something so he/she isn't a sitting duck.

With the mage, pumping Willpower and whatever is the choice directly below Willpower, will increase your spell slots. Maybe similar for Adept?

1) I want fast travel portals on every floor so I don't have to hump up 15 levels to rest. 2) Epic loot and don't be shy dishing it out. Preferably including some item that allows travel from where I was, back to town, then back to where I was. Think D3's portal. This is a carryable item and is different from the static fast travel portals described above. Also should include some mysterious gizmo that allows healing without resting. 3) Megaboss on the last floor. 4) Maybe some puzzles but nothing I have to lookup the answer too. 5) A lever on the first floor that enables kill XP.

Im 11 hours in and have two quests backed up: Its a pretty good game and (knock on wood) I haven't run into any glitches. My elf mage is decked out with the best gear and spells money can buy and Ive only died once, however I don't remember ever selecting a difficulty level. Max Body and Willpower. The story is on rails and it seems impossible to screw it up. Very much worth my modest investment.

Hell yeah! Im glad Obsidian is selling me the strategy guide to totally non-degeneratively play this game.

The 8 pre-made companions will have personalities written by Obsidian. The 8 hired adventurers will be soulless automatons that players roll up in the Adventurers Hall.

Because in the event of no witnesses, if someone kills someone and can convince others that it was indeed an act of self-defense, SYG applies. And of course the evidence has to support them.

That may be a little tougher to pull off. In that example, I could easily see both spells resulting in say 6D6 fire damage, but having a different visual spell effect. I kind of share the same concern over Ciphers. How do you uniquely represent their capabilities? Lets say there is a spell called Mind Spike. Is it just going to be a renamed Hold Person? I don't envy the developers trying to come up with unique capabilities.

This post contains a post from Sawyer that states "Currently, spells are entirely unique to each class." Its unlinked so I don't know where it originated or if its true.

Awesome. Thanks.

Spoil me:

Im curious, why do you want to be able to enter turn based mode outside of combat?

We mods do not perform QA or better gun balance.

What are mafia girls? Daughters of mobsters?

Looks like we all pocketed that cred chip.

Rolled an Elf mage pistoleer. Only around an hour in (just left the coroner) but Im having fun. The save system is a detriment to me as it makes me hesitant to play the game unless I have an entire block of time free.

Aye. I wish I had someone to take care of me. My wife makes good coin but every time I ask her if I can stay home and be a kept man she laughs at me and tells me to get to work.

How frequent are the checkpoints?

Happy Birthday!!!!

There hasn't been a spell list or anything like that released but we do know a few tidbits about the system: 1) There are per encounter and per day cool downs, depending on the spell power (?). As you gain level what was once per day may eventually become per encounter. 2) Spells must be queued (memorized) by being placed in a grimoire (for wizards). Not sure how that will work for clerics, ciphers and chanters. 3) I thought I remembered more but I guess not.
