Flawless Victory vs Korgrak with a Monk and stock BB Party. Video incoming.

 

Fast attacks + OP interrupt bug = lulz

Any chance of a screenshot of the new level up abilities screen?

Sure. Although I don't think anything has really changed? There is a border around the abilities once they've unlocked and I should thank the devs for that seeing as it was something I requested.

Thanks for the upload. All just looks a bit neater and more polished. I also put in a request for a border around the ability icon so kudos to us :D.

Hard Difficulty with a Monk - I maxed Might had a high Perception (to abuse interrupt bug).

Interrupts are horribly broken in this build so if you pump it you'll quite literally interrupt on every hit. Pretty funny when you dual wield fast weapons.

finally I can build my build.

There are more talents to choose from at level up for those classes I've checked - the BB ones and the druid.

I don't want to choose from more, I want to choose more. I still don't feel like I can personalise my build enough with such a low number of talents and abilities.

I haven't noticed any new Talents in this build (there were in v392), but which abilities non-caster classes get access to at what level has been altered.

I don't even have that many hours on Fallout: New Vegas. Never mind the beta, which for me clocks in at...

 

Let me see...

 

78 minutes.

Dang.

"Good thing I don't heal my characters or they'd be really hurt." Is not something I should ever be thinking.

 

I use blue text when I'm being sarcastic.

actually i kind of agree. My favorite part of one of my favorite books was in the halfling's gem, where Drizzt was surrounded by a bunch of creatures and he managed to hit the baddie 15 times before they knew what hit them! It should probably be a temp effect, or a high level ability, but def something i'd like to have.

We're definitely on the same page on this! I'd love to see much more to choose from than what's currently available. :)

wow that interrup abuse makes me... :wowey:

I do agree that we require more selections at level up to enable us to diversify or individualise our characters. Maybe slightly nerf all of the abilities and allow one additional pick per level.

Is this build (435) supposed to have the solid UI? I'm not seeing that - still have 3 separate pieces ??

Yes 435 has the solid ui. You have to enable it though.

Anyone else notice that the Loading screen pictures are like way worse quality? Like they're using jpegs instead of bitmaps or something. Mine are horribly distorted.

The combat log isn't getting enough love. Lots of people will be playing with a resized log and it doesn't look good:

After using it, I think a transparent combat log probably isn't a good idea because when you make it larger than the Combat HUD (which I do, every time) it doesn't look that great

They actually used to be worse in v392, they used to crit for 120 damage. A lot of the stuff you could do to beat them has been taken away (Quadratic Rogue damage, High Accuracy characters). I am just playing with a Druid and the BB party atm, but I will go through with a custom adventurer party and see if it's much easier (it will be, especially with a sixth character and different classes).

 

Uploading a glorious failed attempt at the encounter, I stop trying about half way through, but you get the picture.

 

Dude you have to give that space button an oil check ;)

The patch notes say

 

Capes no longer clip with armor on the character's model.

No, they no longer do - not even connected to it in fact :p

 

Sorry? Looks perfectly fine to me:

This needs work 

 

So far I have not seen this  except on the inventory sheet.  Windows 64 platform.  

 I have but one enemy: myself  - Drow saying

Max Intellect Barbarian is definitely an effective build. That extra Carnage AoE goes a long way. To get the most of it though, you need to dual wield and attack quickly so you get more carnage hits more often. Coupled with Two Weapon Fighting it's pretty beast. 

A bit too effective in this build due to the broken Interrupt though, heh. A hit pretty much guarantees an interrupt if you put Perception at like 15+

 

One thing I did to augment that though was use Rizetti's Thorn and an Enchanted Sword (Corrode Lash or something), the lash enchantments make a huge difference as far as DPS goes, because they scale with your damage roll & attack resolution.

 

Oh yeah ... I am a Hearth Orlan, and that also makes a LARGE difference as to character efficacy.
