A query on combat gameplay
Just because people like to do things perfectly does not mean they are cowards, however. Especially since you can't just restart everything on a whim in a pretty large game. Can you say you haven't reload a single time you played for the first time? Bear got many beginners, I believe On later playthroughs it matters less since you already know everything (for some values of “everything”). We aren't talking about playing for the first time or reloading to avoid the game over screen. Sensuki admits that he reloads if his tactics weren't deployed optimally or gets a really bad dice roll/ko'd party member and then goes on to rant about people abusing the resting mechanic which is irony at its finest.

A query on combat gameplay
Because Save Scumming is way more gamey than rest spam. Of course you won't need to rest as much when you're too much of a coward to roll with punches and just reload.

A query on combat gameplay
By his own admission, Sensuki has said he doesn't play the game and constantly brags how he hasn't even finished Act 3. Plenty has changed since beta; how is his grasp 'expert' when he's reduced to copy/pasting other people's arguments against POE. Also, Sensuki admits that he save scums whenever someone is KO'd which makes his distaste for resting ironic as hell.

PLEASE make a Fallout 4 1/2
Also, Old World Blues had Dr. Venture (James Urbaniak) which was so freaking perfect.

Chris Avellone says Pillars of Eternity was too linear and that he had little impact on the story
First of all, I tried to kill Lady Webb and the game ended which was dumb. In TES if you try to kill an essential they just stand right back up.

New Vegas was better than Fallout 4 in literally every way

A query on combat gameplay
Why do you write thousands of words on multiple sites about a game you hate, haven't finished and no longer play?
-
How many expansions will be made?
Hopefully moving on to sequel so we can have actual mod support and not have to stare at the load screen everytime you walk through a door.

Devil of Caroc far worse than other rogues? (gameplay discussion only, avoid story spoilers pls)
Her voice acting owns which makes her superior. Why does it even matter if she isn't super min/maxed? The game is already jokingly easy on POTD.
-
ectopsychic echo OP?
The game is trivial even without ever using this skill. Being able to cast it on summons is a bit cheese though. If it was limited to actual party members at least they would have to suffer engagement consequences while repositioning.

Paladin Leader in 2.0
15 int and res rarely play any role in conversations.Better would be 16 might(sligtly better than 15) 10con(we don't loose much) and 17 res(for conversation). You can get a +3 resolve ring pretty early so I'd say max at 16 resolve. I think there might be a like 1-2 20 resolve checks in the game but can easily get that with a rest/food bonus.

White March as high level (13) party. To scale or not?
PIP-Clownboy replied to Cimmerian999's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)****ing RedFin fish man. The worst.

Does XP from white march break the game?
What we need is a Heart of Fury mode on steroids for the non-casuals.

Does XP from white march break the game?
Late-mid game was never difficult on POTD anyways.

Soulbound staff any good?
Last two powers for monk: 5% chance to cast petrify on hit or crit and 2 ironskins The staff is awesome sauce on Zahua. Imagine that on a Barb though.

What weapons do you equip for your story companions?
Grieving Moms with Stormcaller is ridiculous.

Upgrading Stormcaller
Is there a way to not kill the wolf? My druid couldn't do it - he could calm the wolf but then when he attempted to remove the arrow I had to kill the wolf. How do you remove the arrow without killing the wolf? After I calmed the wolf Zahua pulled out the arrow and tended the wound or something.

The problem with tanking in PoE
You need better positioning and CC. I have no problem keeping my squishies alive in POTD. And in the event that one gets focused down early there are numerous ways to revive so it's not a huge deal if you're properly prepared. Sounds like you want the game to be a tank and spank MMO. No thanks.

White March - Why Start Midgame ?
My dual-weild barb basically solo'd upscaled TWM so you're idea to wait isn't a good one. What I did in my fresh POTD run was rush white march (at lvl 5 which resulted in some challenging encounters), snatch/grabbed the soulbound weaps and the amazing armor. The I proceeded to act 3 so I could fill out my gear.

2.0.1 New(?) St. Ywden Reedemer Third Upgrade
Using items with the Second Chance mod helped a bit. But I agree, it's a really dumb way to upgrade a weapon.

Tips to deal with this new updates aggro
All sound advice but we shouldn't have to use EVERY buff we have in every combat scenario just to get past it. I'm running a new Trials of Iron-POTD and certainly don't use every buff in every combat scenario.

Rolling a 2nd character in PotD, what are some must-do's and must-not tips you could offer?
I recommend not rushing White March at lvl 5 POTD; that was pretty rough since you can't camp in the area so used up all my traps/scrolls because why not. Worth it though since the initial merchant sells a the best looking robe in the game with mirror image and gloves of accuracy.
