@Noqn is this fix compatible with the Balance Polishing mod? I think it tweaks something about DD

Well **** dude. You went above and beyond here. Thanks

That's fine but the main issue is that the mod did this without documenting it Document changes like this in the mod description so that players can make an informed decision whether or not they want to install it

No I meant in general that people shouldn't do that, I didn't mean you specifically

Losing the +10 accuracy from the ring is in no way justified by having the occasional fire immune mob be vulnerable to damage. I can just switch to a different weapon vs those enemies. Like this is not a good trade-off at all. The biggest issue is that the mod doesn't describe this change anywhere in the description. Don't do that.

Why does the Keyword mod remove the Ring of Focused Flame accuracy bonus on Dragon's Dowry? This seems like a really dumb nerf to a weapon that wasn't even all that powerful compared to something like The Red Hand. This just means I can't use the Keyword mod anymore which is annoying. Not to mention this is completely undocumented in the mod's description which is really bad form and confusing.

Sorry I meant Ranger animal companion lol

Any ideas on which pet to pick? Not sure what to go for

I'll probably just use the Invocation that grants all those inspirations to the team. Thanks though. That Ondras Wrath thing seems insane!

I'm toying with the idea of using a Nature Godlike merc for my Theurge (Druid/Chanter). However, this class doesn't have an easy way to produce an Inspiration to trigger the Godlike ability, other than throwing down a couple of specific spells/invocations - which is fine, but I was wondering if there's an item that I could use that would give me a long-lasting Inspiration? I know about Least Unstable Coil and that's fine for lategame, but I was looking for something else. Anyone got any ideas?

I see. Neat

Ahh I see you mean Frostseeker/Essence Interrupter are considered 'Imbued attacks' by the game? Umm why though?

I don't understand any of this lol

Also, you suggested single class Ranger earlier, I've realised I actually do need to do that in order to get Imbue Pull of Eora faster. So I'm curious what skills you rate on that class as I've never done an SC ranger before

I think I'm going to go for a Lifegiver/Chanter as my support healer. Chanter will provide the summoning. Not quite sure what subclass to pick though. Yeah Bellower is not the play as you pointed out.

Those all seem neat but it doesn't seem on the same level as a Paladin or Priest or Druid who can slap down a huge heal to save someone's ass Let's say I'm interested in making the 5th person a dedicated healer, what's the perspective on Paladin/Druid vs SC Druid I don't think I want Paladin+Priest cos that's what I ran last time I heard SC Lifegiver is good but I'm having a hard time seeing how it's better than multi classing with Pally I guess Priest/Druid is also an option Edit: ok so I looked in depth at Druid and I started thinking about how I can make a single-class Druid that can also do other stuff... Healing-focused Druid that can also summon? Kinda tricky cos Lifegiver can't summon. Ancient Druid can summon effectively but then there's a lot of healing spells I have to pick up. And the whole Spiritshift mechanic isn't really what I'm looking for. So then I actually considered Chanter again lol. Now I'm not sure if it's better to go single-class Chanter (perhaps a Bellower) or go for Chanter/Paladin. Hmm.

I guess my question is what exactly does a Chanter do for healing besides chanting Ancient Memory? Which seems like a trickle of healing at best I know they get Old Siec later but...

My next concern is how to optimise healing for the party. I really need a dedicated healer but I'm not sure who that will be. In my last team I had three quite strong healers so this is quite a different situation lol I'm thinking of adding Paladin in somewhere for a spot healer, I'm just sceptical that a Chanter can really be a primary healer compared to Priest/Druid So current setup is Watcher Berserker/Nalpazca Fassina Arcane Archer, maybe multi with Chanter Serafen Psion/Troubadour SC Wizard not sure who yet, maybe some of Citzal's build ?

Alright this is where I'm at currently Just concerned its a bit too squishy, but with all the summons I'm going to be throwing down its probably OK

Is it worth the loss of the helm slot though? There are some neat helms. I was thinking about: Cap of the Laughingstock: complete immunity fear, the deflection penalty doesn't really matter since everything is going to hit me anyway? Defiant Apparel: perception resistance Copperhead's Helm: for reducing incoming spell damage Death's Maw: reducing damage taken when near a dead enemy Helm of the Falcon: -10% recovery time... Helm of the White Void: helps land Terrified from Spirit Tornado Horns of the Aurochs: immunity to push/pull which is important because of the arcane archer, one of only two items to grant this the other being a belt; also gives a weapon damage boost when hit/crit which is nice Horns of The Bleak Mother: resistance to resolve aff. Survivor's Tusks: one-time heal at below 50% hp, and some other things So I could be a human, and get Fighting Spirit which is quite nice for many reasons, and then also benefit from one of these helms... I'm just not sure that Moon Godlike's abilities are better than Fighting Spirit AND one of these helms I'm thinking Horns of the Aurochs is probably the best one

Yeah I think I'm going to try a Berserker/Nalpazca for my Watcher, it's a shame that Corpse Eater isn't quite where it needs to be because I really wanted to try it out. Not quite sure how to build the stats yet, I would like to have high CON but I can't see where I can draw the points from.. Dump RES I suppose, not sure what else I'm also not sure about Moon Godlike vs Human, Human has some strong advantages but the Moon Godlike's healing and their raw damage reduction (25%) is also quite enticing.

It's in my Deadfire steam page, I wouldn't say it's 'easy' but the instructions are clear IMO

Cool idea but its removed by Elric =D Now I'm thinking about making a Nalpazca monk. Do drug effects stack with food effects?

Even if its Elric's version? Hmm. What other subclass would you recommend? I looked at Fury Shaper but it just looks weird.

Hmm. It's kinda annoying cos I want to take Maia but I don't really want a second ranger to be honest Not sure if she'll break if I remove her bird
