Frog Man

I used magic man

I like Gromnir, but he’s getting crankier by the day.

Wow dude. That coral naga bow is hawt

Very cool - yeah I saw you mention that on another thread. Suppose I’ll keep the Deadfire unique club for now so I can hit multiple damage types

Beautiful - thanks for the feedback! If I were to be bullish on dual wielding, would you recommend sticking with Oldreicht (stirlleto from endless paths level 1) as it provides draining?

I’ve beaten Pillars on hard, but am way late to the party on rogues! I know they are typically considered weak, but I’m Having a blast stealth ing to the back line and murdering high priority targets (looking forward to playing one in Deadfire as an assassin!). I’m playing a dual wield stilleto rogue (though using he new Deadfire club right now). What are your strategies for keeping your rogue alive? I’m doing fine now, but know the game gets harder and POTD should be even more difficult. Thinking a paladin with reinforcing exhortation should help? Maybe second chance gear? Thanks for any ideas on how to make an assassin thrive in a (5man) Party!

I don't know why, but this scene is in my mind... lol! Leslie Nielsen is the best

Where is the skulking terror?

Well done Indira! Hoping to hear about more builds people are having fun with. Might start a thread about it. Thanks for sharing!

Nope.

THERE ARE NO BAD IDEAS

Guys Boeroer is BACK and he’s making crazy builds again!!

I find it’s best to bring them to a public place so they can’t make a scene. Be professional, but direct. Wish them well in the future.

If you were a noobie, you’d be starting at lvl 1, and you’d have far fewer choices. But man, I’ve had a different experience than you. Character creation might be even more fun than the damn game itself!

Totally agree! 5 Party members feels perfect for me. Really natural.

Thank you all! I’ll do that.

apologies as we weren't paying close attention to portions o' the recent obsidian twitch beta announcement, but am recalling somebody asked 'bout console commands and am believing josh affirmed the console commands should be functioning. give "iroll20s" a try and if it works you can add as much copper as you wish. edit: confirmed the console commands work for deadfire beta. GivePlayerMoney 100000 should allow you to makes a full custom party w/o difficulty. https://pillarsofeternity.gamepedia.com/Console_command HA! Good Fun! My thanks Sir Gromnir! I just made a post about this and didn’t realize you had already given me the solution. Ahem ...ha! Good fun!

I badly want to create my own 5 man team to test out, but I ain’t got the cash!! Would be nice to start off with enough to buy 4 mercenaries.

I didn't have enough money to make a party of hirelings. did you find a way around that?

On the topic of wizard feedback, I've been running with a Fighter/Conjurer and it's really fun. Being able to cast Parasitic staff and Arcane Veil every fight makes for a pretty unique warrior mage. Looking forward to expanding his spellbook a bit but for now it's really fun. Disciplined barrage is a nice bonus too! once buffed, this guy is demolishing people.

I mean, this is MaxQuest dude, we need his feedback whether he's playing or not. Next to Boeroer, he might be the most knowledgeable non-Obsidian POE guy in the world. Max - why aren't you playing the beta? I assumed you'd be pulling all-nighters testing out builds!

I <3 obsidian. This game shows such tremendous promise. I’ve been delighted with the writing so far. The environments are beautiful and I can see exploration being a blast in this game. Also, thank you for letting our casters be casters! Per rest abilities are amazing. Having a ton of fun in combat but definitely need the half speed mode like others have mentioned. Gosh, a lot to tweak and the game is just in beta, but this is going to be a thrilling journey!

Boeroer has kids and is a dad! The man of mystery loses 1 layer of said mystery. He needs to do an AMA (of course maybe that’s what he does on these forums all the time anyway)
