May 28, 20187 yr A lot of the most useful stuff has scaling effects, based on skills. The history one is the Giftbearers Cloak (iirc), which ups your resistances. Theres a Shield that gives you deflection for Atheletics, a Spear with + %Stealth damage when Flanking, another with + Damage based off Survival, +Accuracy Arbalest with Arcana, +Speed and Damage Quarterstaff with Metaphysics. Seems like they aren't that well thought out, as a build focusing on a specific skill can really stomp the combat side (and retraining isn't that expensive if you find something cool later on).
May 28, 20187 yr I am kind of annoyed by that, as passives were supposed to be for conversation/roleplaying, not combat; yet they can have more of an impact than active skills in combat.

May 28, 20187 yr Xoti's Lantern has an upgrade that scales with Religion. But it's bugged and gives resistance not only to harmful spells but also beneficial ones, like healing
May 29, 20187 yr Xoti's Lantern has an upgrade that scales with Religion. But it's bugged and gives resistance not only to harmful spells but also beneficial ones, like healing Not a bug, its Spell Resistance, not Spell Resistance to Hostile Spells. Besides, making Xoti Evil for the +Damage% for the party (Which scales off Religion) is a better choice anyway. As for the SR, always read the description on it, if it doesn't say that it effects Hostile Spells, then it will function the same way as the Mage Slayer weakness, and attempt to block all spells.

Yeah, I'd argue that's a design flaw though -- it really should be Hostile Spell Resistance, because 10% ALL spell resistance just makes her an inept healer.
