PBJam Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 I've done a few playthroughs, but decided to play eeeeeevil in this one and I started by killing everyone around me in the caravan And Calisca was like "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!" What's cool is that not only the quest did not fail, but the objectives changed as it adapted to my new playstyle which I think is cool that Obsidian did that. Took me like 10 tries though to actually kill everybody there haha. If anyone wants to go that way, I put the instructions as well as tips on how to kill everyone (because basically the whole caravan gangs on your measly level 1 character. So check out the walkthrough I wrote here: Pillars of Eternity: Slaughter the Caravan 8 The Unofficial Pillars of Eternity Wiki - Community/Fan Maintained!
Merany Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 Holy ****! No idea you could do that lol. Very well played by Obsidian to have a quest there... Will definitely try when I do my evil playthrough at some point in the future. 1
Veevoir Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 Pretty easy to do with barbarian - single wield something, hide in the corner above Heodan (only 1 person can attack you), focus on a tougher character (Calisca, Heodan, Odema) and watch everyone else die to carnage. 3
Sonntam Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 God, this is hilarious. Never thought it would be even possible.

DruidX Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) Was playing around, and found out another method of making it easier to defeat all the people in the encampment If you go down to the Stables and kill one of the Horses there, it will also initiate the "Slaughter the caravan" objective, but only like 2-3 people (including Calisca) will show up to fight you. After you are done with them, you can go up back to the Campsite and deal with the rest Hope this helps!

InsaneCommander Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 What an amazing way to begin an evil playthrough! I haven't finished the game yet, but I'll definitely do this next time.

zered Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 Well, just did it. Now I went to Calisha's sister in Gilded Vale and rubbed it. She wasn't amused. I had to kill her and her cat. I felt bad for the cat. 5

cirdanx Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 (edited) I´m sooo playing the worst evil person ever on my 2nd playthrough. I´m VERY curious what else will change considering now i´m a very selfless good person on my first playthrough. Edit: IF Obsidian really made a seemingless evil playthrough posssible and good they would be the first ones.

Naevius Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 That's more 'nut case' than 'evil', after all, your character was traveling with them for a reason. Why kill them now? Especially when you are sick and might need them?

Edit: IF Obsidian really made a seemingless evil playthrough posssible and good they would be the first ones. Well, they didn't. I accidentally (I was farming gold-plates) ended up killing everyone on the street in Brackenbury, and earned myself villain status in Defiance Bay. So far no one has cared. Slaughter a half-dozen animancers on the doorstep of the asylum and go inside: same as it ever was. 1

Especially when you are sick and might need them? well actually this is explained in the quest log, basically they were having you pick some berries so you can make tea for a cure, but you think that killing them will do more to improve your mood than just sipping some tea The Unofficial Pillars of Eternity Wiki - Community/Fan Maintained!

Luckmann Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 (edited) Man, there should be binary reputations too, not just the dispositions that build up. Just getting +1 Cruel doesn't seem appropriate. General, Perk- or Talent-like reputations that is granted for specific acts or solving certain quests in certain ways. This case, "Psychotic Episodes".

Slaughter a half-dozen animancers on the doorstep of the asylum and go inside: same as it ever was. Whiiiiich is pretty sad, yeah. The reputation implementation could've been better. The pieces are there, but as Longknife pointed out in another thread, there's not that much to support it in most cases, unless you go ballistic and starts killing people randomly for no logical reason. Like, who doesn't end up becoming a hero in Gilded Vale? And the Dispositions (Cruel, Aggressive, Rational, etc) are pretty damn arbitrary. Makes me think that the guidelines for what is what should've been clearer. Edited April 17, 2015 by Luckmann
b0rsuk Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 (edited) I'm roleplaying a nasty person in my second playthrough, but not a stupid one. MY character is cruel and motivated by greed. But he will happily help people if it's more profitable. A typical psychopath. He will do a lot if he can gain from it, but stop short of actions that can make companions leave.
