AndreaColombo Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Why don’t you use the mod that lets you cheat without disabling achievements? I did that and it worked no problem. "Time is not your enemy.

AndreaColombo Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Sure do. It comes with a modding framework to boot. 2 "Time is not your enemy.

M4xw0lf Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 I've tested it a bit. Good sword for taking care of mobs but you'll want a higher damage alternative to switch to in your second slot for single enemies with higher damage reduction. The parry upgrade is a must have. For that I have soul annihilation. Eat that raw damage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pharaun159 Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 Gotta say. Sword is a bit underwelming on pod. I think it might be a great weapon for non barbarians early on.. But the lesser penetration means even though you are hitting a bunch if guys.. Its not doing much more then a one handed sword would do... Assuming it punches through at all. Id say it might be a worthy solo barbarian blade though. Berserker/bleakwalker. Yould level faster, and tank well enough to tolerate the slower damage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illathid Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 (edited) I'm liking the sword, but I'm finding the AOE a bit of pain to deal with. It means I have to be a lot more careful with my positioning, even in low effort encounters or i’ll be doing a lot of damage to my other melee party members. An enchantment to make the AOE foe only would be really nice.

An enchantment to make the AOE foe only would be really nice. The AOE is really getting to me. I’ve given the weapon to Pallegina, and I basically have her run off to confront secondary targets while everyone else gangs up on a main target. Otherwise it’s constant friendly fire and plenty of those “one time cute, multiple times annoying” comments from your other party members about “hit me again, I’ll hit you back”. When used with careful positioning, though, it’s great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, for big fights where you need to careful manage your whole party it really works great, but when I just want to auto-attack through a bunch of fodder its kinda pain.

George_Truman Posted May 14, 2018 Author Share Posted May 14, 2018 (edited) Spoilers: I tested out the effects of another similar weapon, the Wahai Poraga, that has incorrect descriptions of its effects. The real effects are: At blades reach: +8 deflection, -20% incoming melee damage for 2 seconds on attack Dug in: +2% action speed whenever hit or crit in melee (max +20%) Also this is not specified, but it can only hit the primary target twice.

endlessdaves Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Just an fyi - I am not sure if the toggle is correct on this or if it is a bug, but if you DO NOT reforge the blade in your custom history you will have the fragments when you get to your ship. daves 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razorchain Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Dammit, here I was getting really stoked for this weapon for my Devoted/Assassin only to find out that the base damage is only 9-15!!!!! Which is worse than a one handed sword! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epimetreus Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Whispers hits twice - one regular hit with the listed damage, and then another, the cone-shaped AOE attack. It’s a great 2H, as long as you keep your companions out of the cone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M4xw0lf Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 (edited) So, Devoted/Streetfighter, yay or nay? Devoted/Anything yay. Fighters are just too good atm, so you can't do much wrong. Devoted/Soulblade and Devoted/Berserker (or plain Barb) will probably give you even better dps, and also come with some optional CC - very powerful CC for Ciphers (whisper of treason, mental binding, puppet master, ringleader, mind plague, amplified wave...), light CC for Barb (carnage, shouts, terrifying presence).

GamerSerg Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 You can get the fragments from custom history if you choose that you did not reforge the blade. It has nothing to do with saving the crate or the deckhand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperCracker Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Sure do. It comes with a modding framework to boot. Can't get the launcher to work properly. Pillars won't load, just a black screen with no audio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ichthyic Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 (edited) Sure do. It comes with a modding framework to boot. Can't get the launcher to work properly. Pillars won't load, just a black screen with no audio. I tried that mod framework. it uses an injector and it's really hard to use anything else with. instead, THIS is a much, MUCH better use of the injector: https://www.nexusmods.com/pillarsofeternity2/mods/2?tab=description&BH=1 that will let you basically mod almost anything in the game, from making custom classes for your companions, to customizing any usable item with whatever effects you want, and does not interfere at all with data based mods (the ones that go in your override folder). and the author updates it daily.

fced Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Hello, One year later, what is your advice about those 3 swords, i am really afraid with friendly fire, i got an Battle Axe which have an aoe effect wich each hit, but it is more problematic than helpful because i have two mele companion, and one is already wounded with each hit. I am more thinking to craft the two swords... Any idea please ? Pillars of Eternity PS4 - RPG fan - Native language French, so please forgive my poor English speaking ...
