July 21, 20187 yr Decided to mess around making some Adventurers - Created a Fire Godlike Arcane Knight focuses on Might and then Con and Int and maxed Metaphysics for...ba dum tish...the Chromo quarterstaff. Good grief is it strong: 43 - 51 damage on the char screen. Plus with the way Grimoires work only need a few Wizard spells and passives, focusing on Paladin tree.. Using Grimoire of Spark and Flame. So far this is a REALLY fun AND effective build. Fun for me is always first but I'm surprised how well the class synergize. So anyway my thoughts on a build for one of the best weapons in the game:)
July 23, 20187 yr Having solo Pale Elf sitting on level 12, not a fan of over-leveling approach, Goldpact Kight / Wizard no subclass. Goldpact for Sword Rival (+4 AR), not using Flames of Devotion at all. Its hard to hit (Chillfog, Mirrored Image, modal from staff, Minor Arcane Reflection), penetrate (Sworn Rival) and kill (Lay on Hands, Exalted Endurance, Concelhaut's Parasitic Staff), Paladin passives and other buffs from Lengrath's Martial Masteries, just it lacks AoE. Could use Scrolls or Explosives but was experimenting with WotEP and hoping to get the Lance later. Currently in Old City being able to clear a lot of content there. The Digsite, except the boars and drake, was also not too hard. No fancy combos, just good defense and beating mobs with a stick. https://ibb.co/dYEbEJ Edited July 23, 20187 yr by knownastherat
July 24, 20187 yr Gilded Enmity doesn't scale with Iron Skin or Spirit Shield afaik. Citzal's Spirit Lance + Bleak Walker's FoD on the other hand... What happens with White Flames if you use Spirit Lance and hit multiple foes? Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
July 24, 20187 yr What happens with White Flames if you use Spirit Lance and hit multiple foes?I'm pretty sure it works off the attack and not off the hit so you get 14 hp. Time to check... It's based on attack. Edited July 24, 20187 yr by grayrest

What happens with White Flames if you use Spirit Lance and hit multiple foes? Indeed Gilded Enmity does not stack with other "actives". On the other hand, it does not cost any resources with Sworn Rival. Not using Spirit Shield saves resources for - everyone's favorite, fun and fantastic - Chill Fog. Ironskin could be a backup pick for times when the gold breaks. Personally, I do not like "transferred" effects simply because they seem like bull**** and I don't like bull****.

July 24, 20187 yr Author Yeah Gilded can essentially take the place of Iron Skin. Also from a RP perspective, Goldpact and Bleak Walkers are true mercenaries. I can't get myself to play one as the MC but love making them custom. Edited July 24, 20187 yr by Verde
