How could you not like Sagani ! She is my favourite I think. I'm curious which companions you did like best.
-
I have actually gotten to level 8 without experiencing any of these bugs. I never loaded in guilded vale .. No combat in the actual town. Pallegina has a negative DR for me (without armour its at -2) and Kana seems to have double deflection (if I put on a large shield for him his deflection goes up by 32 but a ring of deflection is only by 5) but I just wear the penalty pallegina has and I don't use Kana. I never did the double click bug (you can fix it for your companions by firing and rehiring).
So the bugs are kind of bad for some people, but they dont actually stop you playing the game if you are keen enough.
-
I actually chose slicken as a leveling spell. There seems to be similar spells in a lot of enemy mage grimoires, I havent seen slicken on an enemy even once.
-
I made kana naked and then sent him to the keep when I found Pallegina and had no trouble.

I really wanted to kill The Vulture. But he's right in the middle of the Goose and Duck, and I can't do anything about this bastard without starting a massacre.
BTW I had no idea those were backers. I just thought they were random flavor NPCs. I really liked reading those little character backgrounds so far!
Yeah I quicksaved when I found the vulture. Then I killed everyone in the bar >.> I almost just left it that way.
I personally feel like the writing for the backers isn't really that great. I was also a bit annoyed when I realised I had been reading each and every single one of these stories for no particular reason. A lot of them seem to be someone practicing writing characters you are supposed to find cool.
-
Yeah it isnt that. I haven't actually double clicked at all. First I knew you could double click to get equipment on was hearing you don't want to do it. I have the defensive portion of it too. Its just the 20% damage doesn't show up or seem to be working. The damage is kind of nuts without it though so I figure I am happy about it. Those druid spells need a wee bit o tuning in my opinion.

I am playing a druid and I am level 8 now. Cant say that I have found enough beasts to even try charming them tbh. Early game I charmed some wolves and bears but I never had that much trouble with it. Not sure if it is a druid bug but I have found that secrets of rime does nothing to my cold spell damage.
-
I am so keen to know how this works. I checked the in game reference/pedia thing and couldn't come up with an explanation of spell holding either.

Yeah I just bought the shod-in-faith boots and couldn't notice any change anyplace. I think a few items have this problem

Been thinking about this. I am a fan of the 'oldschool' games which inspired so many people to kickstart this (i was busy living under a rock so I was not one of them). I think making wizards per encounter is an interesting idea personally. It would mean totally re balancing the class though. Maybe if Wizards learnt one spell per level and could cast one spell per two levels per encounter it might make them a bit more user friendly and a bit more fun to play.
I am not unhappy with the implementation of wizards in this game. I recently tried playing a gnome illusionist in Baldurs Gate (when I was just a wee lad I always chose beefcake characters) and it was pretty painful. Very painful even. I rolled a druid for my first playthrough of PoE and have found it to be much more forgiving and fun than a playthrough of BG.
-
Thanks Sidushi. I probably wont even bother uploading my save now since there seems to be so much posting about the issue of free stats already. Knowing how to find the saves will certainly help with any further bugs I need report though, so cheers.

Hardest quest in the game, only one left for me =(
It is actually possible to do all of the quests in the game in one playthrough ? I was kind of expecting that as you cosy up to one faction you would alienate others therefore making it impossible to do all of their quests.
-
I think this game is a little FNV style. You can kill who you want to kill. Sure you cannot be given quests by a dead man.... but why would you want to do quests for house dumbbell, I mean doemenel anyhows.

Re: what Dongom said
I am finding that slow guns are not in fact very good. I am finding that pistols and arbalest are good. The Arquebus does less damage than the arbalest while having a slower rate of fire. Apart from that I would second his advice.
-
I have yet to notice this act business. I am in defiance bay... so is that act 2 ? I also haven't noticed that the enemies have levels. I did have a bit of a loadathon when I first tried fighting the shades. On the other hand I one shot Raedric without consumables (I am still keeping all of these traps and scrolls and potions in case I ever actually need them ....) and have found there to be little of difficulty since. I even went down into the dungeon and dropped down a rope to fight a drake while I am certain I was too low to be there and one shot that. Aside from shades and incomplete parties the game just doesn't feel hard enough.
-
I am feeling like hard could be harder. I am in defiance bay and have cleared out most of it I think. (my party is level 7 atm, havent gone to heritage hill yet). I am just playing with the companions you find. I had one companion go funny with stats, so they just do the stronghold missions now.
Anyone else feel like hard isn't really hard enough ?
-
I feel the game is fairly easy on hard but I dont think any of my companions have bonus stats. I had Kana gain some stats but I then stopped taking him with me. Here is hoping that if its not just these bugs that make hard too easy that we get patches or mods which up the ante. Path of the damned just seems straight up silly hard from the description.

By the way, I noticed hirelings make you have a net loss of money, since taxes are seemly tied to quest amount, but hirelings are tied to days passed, meaning that if you are a slow player, or rest a lot, or keep getting lost and moving between areas, you will lose lots of money.
Also if you are not completionist, again, lose lots of money.
And finally, even if you ARE completionist, theoretically at the end of the game the hirelings can drain your money forever, but you have no source of income (since you already finished all quests, thus taxes stopped, and nothing respawns, so there are no new enemies to loot and sell their stuff)
At the end of the game the game is over. Not sure how this is relevant

Hmm I just hit my first payday. It cost 300 cp and I had 6 hirelings. since they cost 10cp each a day I can only assume that a week is five days long ? Also even immediately after being paid they say currently unpaid. No one left though.
-
Yeah I rushed back to my keep to try and pay these people. Since I still get the bonus stats from having them around I guess they are being paid and its just a bug in the telling.

I have the secrets of rime Talent on my druid but it doesn't appear to be working properly. The five extra could DR is working fine. The 20% extra cold damage isn't. Winters wind does base damage of 30-50 (which does feel a little high as a sidenote) and is 38-64 on my character which has 19 might. Since 30-50+27% is more or less 38-64 I am pretty sure that the extra 20% damage isnt being applied. I would be expecting more like 55-95 damage at that point. If it did work as advertised it would probably trivialise the content though. Perhaps the tooltip is just wrong and the extra damage isnt intended, which would be fine except for the fact I wouldn't have chosen it then. The secrets of rime effect doesnt show up in active effects on my character either. A lot of passives don't actually.
I have tested the spell itself to see if the damage is being applied secretly and all I can confirm is that so far with limited testing I am getting the 38-64 bracket on hits. I crit for around 74. The druid cold spells do feel pretty powerful even without secrets of rime, so perhaps the talent should be removed or the cold spells nerfed or something.
-
tbh a flat 20 damage would kind of make rangers a little bit too good. As it stands it feels kind of useless/doesnt do anything
-
With no clothes on my Eder is level 6 and has the following stats 42/59/37/45. This normal ?
-
I just tried to reproduce this effect and could not. I had the amulet on Kana and saved it, left to menu and returned and he had the same endurance. (i also made a save where he wasnt wearing it when I logged out to be safe)
Patch delayed for 3 weeks! (See inside)

No idea what your link is about(what kind of monkey would click it I am not sure). I can say that you are the worst kind of person though. You are just like King Theodan. You may think a lot of yourself, but you are alone in that.
