Early Access Stream Friday 8am EST

[Voss]

Evenly?  Not so far.  Resolve and might get checked quite a bit.  But might gets checked in interactions when companions can do it.   

 

As far as skills go, the big skill for conversations so far seems to be insight.

 

Race and class get checked from time to time.

 

Also, just as a note, the Achievements for the game have spoilers.  At least the GoG version- I don't know if devs can mark achievements as hidden on GoG the way Steam does it, but if it can they... uh... missed a couple important ones.

Can someone confirm that sneak attack bonus damage has been indeed nerfed from 50% to 30%? PoE2 Wiki still lists it at 50%, but maybe it hasn't been updated yet...

Most likely  . If you've seen Cohh's stream he shows that Sneak attack with Trickster subclass only deals +10% damage because of the penalty:

On Wiki and in the beta it was +20%. So it's not far cry to say that Sneak attack was nerfed in general.

 

It looks like devs were so afraid of broken multiclass builds they nerfed rogues to the ground. Couldn't even give them decent and varied high level abilities to make an incentive for singleclassing. A single 9th level active ability for a rogue, while other classes get like five?

And even that single lvl9 ability isn't particularly impressive. I mean, just a full attack plus the vanishing act? No bonus damage or anything? All the more reasons to still go multiclass

Is it possible they've finally fixed Sneak Attack so it scales with Power Level?

Those who saw the stream: can you respec/control companion attributes (Might etc.)? That was an unanswered question going in.
