Cyrus_Blackfeather Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 Heya, So, I've seen a lot of threads here and on the strategies forum about how to deal with the various gods' curses - like Berath's requiring you to kill a certain number of kith. And I was wondering... is going for one of those entirely just another layer of challenge on the game, or is there anything interesting you get for doing so (Extra dialogue with that particular god/goddess or some of their followers)? Also, what exactly does betraying each of them DO? I know - Berath: You need to kill 70 Kith, don't know what the curse does. - Hylea: She sends a bunch of birds to poo all over your boat, but you can upgrade your hull to get rid of that (And apparently, judging by one of the new items in the Deck of Many Things, this is just something she "does"). - Galawain: Makes certain boss fights harder? (I feel like that would be his way of BLESSING you, to be honest) - Wael: I know that not hiding the Parable makes Wael remove scrolls, not sure about breaking your vow to them. - Skaen: - Rymrgand: Furthermore, does Wael give you anything for actually doing what they want? I know Skaen's was dummied out, and Rym doesn't because he's the god of entropy.
Enoch Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 Wael never asks for a vow, nor grants a boon. They just tell you what they think you should do with the souls, and leave it at that. And, as far as I can tell, there is no bonus in Deadfire for having done they ask.
Taevyr Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 Rymrgand gives you a curse called "Burden of Memory" during the first animancer quest, giving -2 might and resolve, which goes away after a set period of time. Berath decreases all your attributes by one.
AndreaColombo Posted August 14, 2018 Posted August 14, 2018 I’m tempted to betray Galawain on purpose to enjoy more challenging boss fights. "Time is not your enemy.

Cyrus_Blackfeather Posted August 14, 2018 Author Posted August 14, 2018 I’m tempted to betray Galawain on purpose to enjoy more challenging boss fights. Why DOES Galawain opt to make fights easier for you? That seems to go against his whole "thing." I do like siding with him/Magran/Abydon though because I like their whole thing about personal drive and force of will.
Tick Posted August 15, 2018 Posted August 15, 2018 I would think the joy of ticking off the gods is the act itself. In seriousness, if you want a weird challenge / playthrough, playing someone who spurned as many as much as possible would be interesting. 3
Verde Posted August 15, 2018 Posted August 15, 2018 Half the fun is calling out the Gods for the frauds they are hehe 1
kelticfury Posted August 15, 2018 Posted August 15, 2018 Do these god curses count as injuries for the helm that makes you uninterruptable?
Katarack21 Posted August 17, 2018 Posted August 17, 2018 I would think the joy of ticking off the gods is the act itself. Yeah, they're ****. Screw them all. 1
