Gregorovich Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 (edited) The problem is that the Blood Mage looses Empower as penalty, so he can't progress with the robe from the Forgotten Sanctum Don't you think, that it shouldn't be like this? Edit, as I see the robe is meant to make you use empower, so the robe is practically useless ofr the Blood mage, That's a bit unfair Edited December 13, 2018 by Gregorovich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boeroer Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Well... there are other soulbounds that can't even be equipped by certain classes. Bloodmage's life is not a bed of roses. Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnyedm Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Blood magic is my thing, will almost exclusively play the class type whenever I have the option. I remade my character right away when it came with the beta. Now I'm remaking my character again because of this, sad face. Could you tell me the effects of the Robes? I would like to know if I should brave the storm and keep Blood Mage anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreaColombo Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 There's at least one additional ability that's not shown in the screenshot. IIRC it gives Brilliant to allies within range for 4s after using Empower. You can still use it with a Blood Mage and benefit from the first two abilities and a rad-looking Legendary robe, but there'll be Empower-related abilities that'll do nothing for you. 2 "Time is not your enemy.

I appreciate you!. Both of those unique abilities are definitely nice, but from your information it's not enough to make me abandon Blood Mage just yet. I can cancel my No Subclass run I just created. Now, going off of what the OP said earlier, the use of Empower is necessary to progress this item? Would I miss out on the Legendary effect or just the last two passives? Edited December 15, 2018 by jonnyedm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boeroer Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 But there are plenty of other armors for a Bloodmage, aren't there? Surely one single, high lvl robe can't have such a big impact on your decision to play a Bloodmage. Or can it? 1 Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely one single, high lvl robe can't have such a big impact on your decision to play a Bloodmage. Or can it? Both games in this series have denied robe wearers style points, hell in the first game I only wore enchanted Dyrwoodan clothes (and Stalwart clothes for the roleplay). These robes are what I've been wanting for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregorovich Posted December 15, 2018 Author Share Posted December 15, 2018 (edited) Well, I just had a hope there would be something unique, specifically for the Blood Mage, and the Robe looks so nice Anyway, it's the best wiz subclass, especially if you multiclass and micromanage your spells. I just want to try it with other multiclasses, Paladin, Rogue, Fighter (Tactician?, not sure) Although, Furyshaper feels veeery good Edited December 15, 2018 by Gregorovich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doppelschwert Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 If it's any consolation, I think the robe is currently bugged, as it wasn't registering any empowers I used and so I couldn't advance it regardless of class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wormerine Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 If it's any consolation, I think the robe is currently bugged, as it wasn't registering any empowers I used and so I couldn't advance it regardless of class. It works for me just fine - didn't use enough empowers to progress, but they are getting registered. Just to make sure, you have to empower abilities - I don't think refreshing your resource pool works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doppelschwert Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 I have a theory that it only works on abilities that target enemies/anyone? My brawler only knows self buffs and none of them were registered when empowered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lótus Haddock Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Someone can post a pic with a character using the robe?

Clerith Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 (edited) You can probably use the console for leveling up the robe, at least you could level up soulbounds in PoE1. Edited December 18, 2018 by Clerith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GamerSerg Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Also, the first two steps in binding the robe requires you to use two quest items that you later loose and can’t get back. Is it not possible to sever binding and rebind to someone else without those items? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
