April 9, 201510 yr I know I am starting to despair. WTF is the meaning of this: Why a bow that grants Jolting Touch? In which universe does this make sense? A Custom Editor for Deadfire's Data:
April 9, 201510 yr Author Upon testing, this causes Jolting Touch on critical hit (only?) A Custom Editor for Deadfire's Data:
April 9, 201510 yr I believe (not sure) that may be what "spell striking" means - procs spell on crit. Anyone know?
April 9, 201510 yr It's obviously for melee hitting with the bow itself, and not with the arrows Do you think Pillars of Eternity doesn't have enough Portraits? Submit your vote in this Poll!
April 9, 201510 yr I know I am starting to despair. WTF is the meaning of this: Why a bow that grants Jolting Touch? In which universe does this make sense? It seems to be a very nice bow, which causes jolting touch on crits. might make for some nice builds...
April 9, 201510 yr It would be nice if there was some explanation of what spell striking did in the mechanics cyclopedia or something. People on steam are saying it only works on the first critical hit of an encounter? Not really sure, honestly. I figured it was a percentage thing, like 5% or something, but I guess not. But maybe it is. I don't really know.
April 9, 201510 yr Interesting.

His raids were carried out at the start of stormy weather, and gathering clouds were often feared as much as heralds of his arrival as of the storms they promised. The force behind his shots would carry his arrows up beyond the cloud cover, and they were said to bring the power they met there back down to the sea with them, striking all below with the force of a lightning bolt.
April 9, 201510 yr The strategy guide isn't very good. ;P Yeah, it says the Footpad's Hood is +3 perception. :/ Really wish it was... "Wizards do not need to be The Dudes Who Can AoE Nuke You and Gish and Take as Many Hits as a Fighter and Make all Skills Irrelevant Because Magic." -Josh Sawyer

I expected much more from Prima The strategy guide is full of errors to the point where I have to check in the game whatever I read in it. To my great amazement, the strategy guide doesn't even contain a table with party NPCs' attributes. Edited April 9, 201510 yr by Gairnulf A Custom Editor for Deadfire's Data:

April 9, 201510 yr There's a wand with the same property and it's OP as hell. Like the cipher of item properties.
April 9, 201510 yr Spell Strike, I believe, is a spell which fires on a critical hit with that weapon, once per encounter.

It's not the strategy guide's fault - stuff has been changing so fast before the release of the game that it'd be impossible to keep up. There are deadlines for committing changes in time to get everything proofread, printed, shipped, etc. And stuff has continued to change after the release of the game. Unfortunately, in the modern era of games with multiple balance patches after release, printed strategy guides are just less useful.
