Is the DLC worse than bitter dark isle? If it is way would I ever buy this.

Took a break from DD2DA2 for a bit and just beat the Satanchia a second time. It was pretty great. I'm going to farm him for Halloween, since it fits the mood and all.>>750647878I'm fine with the loss gauge since it gives you a reason to camp or go to inns/your bed and healing after dying is a weird but fine addition. Everything else I didn't interact with in game. oxcarts could be useful but need more work, the new vocations are kinda ass but I can see how someone could find them fun if they want to use them for their own playstyle, I never play archer/strider/ranger so I don't care, beastren and the other human races need more fleshing out in general.>>750649156Dwayne is supposed to be teenager that met some superhuman dude that he's a fanboy of. Basically, he's like some kid who got into lifting because of Arnie meeting the Schwarz in real life and he's giving him tips on how to lift in person.the fucked up affinity gains making him fall in love with after doing like 1 or 2 quests just make it seem gayer than it really is.
>>750647878Also player pawns wandering the world and doing mercenary work is gone too with him at the helm. The story will revolve around some special pawn (not yours) and that's the only one that exists in the world.
>>750647878Instead of separating archer and ranger they should combine them again like it was in the first game. Honestly Kinoshita has already proven twice he understands what makes these games fun but he's had to work with constantly fixing around the bullshit HACKsuno implements
Information on the Ring of Virtue (Ring of Wicked Gore, etc) effects & upgrade conditions was recently data-mined, I compiled the information I could find into a table. Have fun with the grinding anons
>>750650454>I'm fine with the loss gauge since it gives you a reason to campThats the idea but all it did was making shitsuno implement the healing after dying exploit since it would be unfuriating losing all of your health gauge mid battle and being unable to survive a single hit, all wakestones do now are being free full heals, the lost gauge shpuld be removed or only activate after battle and not reduce your health slowly during a long battle

>>750651995anything under 2% chance maybe?
>>750651130Don't really get the endgame loop in this, after beating enhance satanachia what's left? Farm gear to beat him a little faster? It's not even difficult to begin with in basic tier 5 gear?

>>750652320Skill issue
>>750651993#NotAllPCFagsSome people just like QoL mods that makes the game look better and sound better like adding DD1/DDON music into DD2, which surprisingly makes it a lot better in ther music department. Some actively make the game harder on PC than was intended.Me? I use mods like that and the CarryMeSenpai mod because I'm my ulrika pawn needs love too. I also install very important mods that make you experience the game in a completely new and amazing way.
>>750652460*vocation issueArcher wasn't clumsy in DD1
>>750651995I'm not sure, from what I saw being discussed I get the impression that enemies have 2 loot tables ("normal" and "rare") and you get an item from one table or the other. But I don't know that for a fact.
>>750652528DD1 also had bow skills that locked you into place bro
>>750652583They let you aim around with the AIM vocation
>headless dullahan at end of lost rite dungeonfuck me even using holy daggers I felt like I was barely touching him, even while targeting his head
>>750652310Yeah that's pretty much it. Enhanced Satanachi and Devouring Rancor are the two toughest encounters, once you can reliably beat them you're just grinding to do it better/faster/more efficiently.I like to hire lower level pawns with quests, knock out their quests, then do a Purple > Red > Devouring > Enhanced Satanachia run, then repeat. That's about the extent of the endgame.Lost Rites too I guess but I haven't even gone to Unmoored World since DA2 dropped so I haven't done the Evil Eye dungeon yet, but I got the impression that it's repeatable to some extent due to the grindable keys. Not sure though.
>>750652694Skill issue.
>>750653006Taste issue
>>750651993Did sony increase the price of PS Plus or something? Every thread has some mad consoletard showing up kek
I was sitting at a clean level 80, ready to touch the beacon and officially end the game. When the DLC came out I started a hard mode NG+. I wanted to do the Lost Rites before entering the DLC proper, but some of them are a fucking slog. I don’t know if level 80 (95 now) is too low or what, but I’m getting staggered and tossed around while hitting like a noodle. None of the Lost Rites gear is superior to my upgraded post-game stuff. Should I grind up a bit or just dive in to the DLC?
The new blue marble dungeon tile set is awesome
>>750653674upgraded lost rites gear is much more powerful than upgraded basegame gear
>>750653674You can always go into Norgan and pick at trash piles for some early spoils and then go back and beat Lost Rites relatively easily.Lv.1 spoils will be a significant boost to your power, while Lv.2 and up will make them a complete joke.
>>750653935>the new dress is somehow worse than the babydollhow even does one fuck that up
>>750651146>175 normals kills>or 177 virulent rancors + 59 enhanced killsgenuinely what the fuck would you need drops from after all that
>>750647471love me pawn. simple as
>>750654405I like it more, it seems like an actual dress instead of the corset. I can't get as good of screenshots of my pawn as some other anons on here have, not sure what the difference is. Maybe I need to mod the shadows?
>>750653674The DLC is scaled against equipment you find in there, your character level is nearly meaningless after you enter it. A level 1 character with level 5 relic gear is stronger than a level 999 with best basegame gear
>>750654849i got immersive lanterns and the fake spotlight disabler and it looks great
Where is the warrior momument in Norsca?
>>750655084Little cave north of the sage sphinx area
>>750647878Even if DD3 will ever get made:>>loss gaugeYes>>healing after dyingThey didn't remove menu healing, they won't remove this>>oxcartsThey'll keep these>>mystic spearhand>>trickster>>archerThey should remove vocations altogether which might be a thing since DD2 already caved in and gave us Warfarer, they can just tie a skillset to a weapon class since that's effectively what DD2 already does and then let use freely swap between two or three weapons.>>beastrenNo, they'll definitely keep these since they're fairly unique and there's Red Earth DNA behind them for street cred.
>>750647878I feel like theyre just going to make more DLC than a new game. Like each DLC just touches up the base game more while adding more content to make it a big game.Like after replaying it, DD2 is fucking huge now, Norgan alone couldve been its own game, the dungeons were great, and even though the base game of DD2 is mid it serves as basically the low level questing area of the game with a storyline to follow. They could just add more DLC zones and then eventually package it all into a definitive DD2 edition. Like I feel they need to fiddle with some of the mechanics and systems more so they have groundwork for an actual sequel rather than just starting from scratch. Some of the dungeon stuff suggests they could do BBI dungeon crawler but with rogue like elements, the final dungeon even has you pick "boons" that lock you out of other options, I can see those easily being buffs for that run of the dungeon, and also debuffs that affect the run. Like they are testing shit.
>>750655279Thanks. Wasn't expecting a giganigga skelly but i kicked its ass
DD3's story should go full gnostic and have us kill the greater will and have it reveal that it was a demiurge situation.

>>750647878>>750655330The loss gauge is staying, shitters. It's the only thing that makes being out in the wild even remotely dangerous. Too bad there's so many goddamn camp sites.
>>750647878Trickster I agree needs a heavy rework but whats wrong with archer and MS? MS being in the same colors as MK aside they both fill different enough niches that they can both co-exist and MS plays differently than the other fighter-style vocations. Archer and thief being separated is a by-product of the system, thief is a bit more complete as a class but I think archer just needs a bit more fleshing out to feel like a complete class. Its got some rough parts but no need to throw it all out.
>>750655659I seriously doubt it, DA2 busted the game wide open.>Vortexes just shit out levels, 999 is actually viable now>immortality cheese builds>Battle Frenzy IVIt's broken beyond just "they need to scale up again", I seriously don't see how they could build on it with any new DLC unless they seriously nerf some stuff or if they were to do some weird equipment-restriction shenanigans. I think DD3 is most likely at this point.
>>750647878>No Beastren in DD3Kinoshita wouldn't be dumb enough to do that
>>750655967>Too bad there's so many goddamn camp sitesniggran is much more fun with the few campsites than base game. shame about the eternal ferrystone. i'm too weakwilled to resist the urge. good thing there's whiteouts

>>750656296>Gigachad human malebut then hes stupidly slow and out of breath
>>750656396It's funny because most vocations only have like 1 or 2 important damage-dealing spammable skills anyway. The rest of your loadout is going to be reserved for situational things.>Fighter: Shield Precision and Cloudward Slashezpz
>>750656197it's sad that the sovl in this art doesn't exist in our world anymore
>>750656020What Im suggesting doesnt require scaling. Dungeons that reset progress when you leave has nothing to do with armour having to be increased.>>you go in with whatever resources you have and cannot access your storage again, so you need to go in prepared. Including the pawns, if they die they are gone. Wakestones dont work and only the dungeons specific healing items can heal you. Cant TP out. Dying sends you all the way back to floor 1 >every 10 floors you get a boon which affects how you function, you can pick 1 of like 3 choices which do something positive and are random each floor>however, the dungeon gets a buff every 10 floors too, that persists for the duration of the dungeon>cant just run past enemies to farm the final boss, you have to kill enemies to open the doors>for end game players its just a matter of seeing how many floors you can clearThey could just stitch the dungeons they made together with loading screens when you clear a floor, add a few more, and make it an infinate crawl that gets stupidly hard but also lets you get silly via the buffs that are only in effect within the dungeon.
>>750647471Do people in lore consider Chimera having the head of a beastren, or is it beastren that has the face of a chimera?cuz like, there's no lion and all. how would they know what a lion is if there's no lion?

The slimes that only take damage from poison and sections of a bridge that suddenly collaspe on top of the stupid weight puzzle in the Nameless Village makes me realize that I don't want dungeons with gimmicks in them. Let me run up and kill the enemy after some twists and turns. I don't need exciting layouts. I'm not here for that.
Post your DD1 characters and pawns too
>>750653875reminds me of certain dungeons in DDON
>>750657856God I stick can't wait for the private servers to be finished
>>750657562>Let me run up and kill the enemy after some twists and turns. I don't need exciting layouts. I'm not here for that.
>>750655330>They didn't remove menu healing, they won't remove thisNigga you do realize you can literally heal from a fatal hit in DD2?if you took a fatal hit in DD1 you just died and were forced to use a wakestone, in DD2 you can eat some leafs and get back on your feet even if the hit dealt 9000 damage and you only had 1 health
>>750656667I often find myself using suboptimal skills just to mix it up
the poison slime rite dungeon is fucking retarded. there, i said it.
>>750658018To be fair, I feel like I get fatally hit far more in DD2DA than I ever did in 1DA. They gotta work on balancing better
I didn't even notice if Death has unique music in 2, does he?https://youtu.be/QUw3ROLd5Jo
>>750657993Not that anon, but random brine pits or fall damage when you’re a class with no movement abilities is fucking annoying. I got stonewalled most of the way through Conduit because my pawns got randomly dunked into a puddle by a skeleton king. That isn’t difficult, it’s annoying
>>750658208Becase the game just overall controls worse in 2 so it was easier to avoid attacks in DD1, i still think they should remove loss gauge and let healing items actually heal you instead of being pseudo wakestones
>dd2 dlc released>im still lvl 20ish>nowhere NEAR anything greatgod fucking damnit
>>750658834It released a month ago
>>750658879yes and
I'm nearing the end of my time in umoored, is there a way to finish the game without getting booted to ng+?
>>750659103no
>>750659103No but when you go to NG+ you get an option to skip the prologue and it kicks you straight to the main city so you can immediately equip your gear/skills and basically be back where you started. I mean you will still lose progression like the Battahl entry permit and portcrystals will need to be tagged again but at least you can skip the escape sequence and Melve stuff.
Is there something I can bring to deal with the various oozes that can work on most vocations?
>>750656020Yeah, short of adding another order of magnitude to a theoretical DLC for the raw stat check, I don’t see it working either.
>>750660424grimoiresrotten meat for the blue sparkly ones
>>750660763>spoilerkinoshitter I kneel, I've found out like a dozen different ways of dealing with those cunts from anons by now and I really thought they were immortal when I first encountered them.
>>750660763am i supposed to eat it?
>>750647878After making the loss gauge more punishing, I found out a camping kits have a usage limit. (Or I might be misremembering. I haven't played the DLC yet, working on my backlog). It was fun walking and needing to use kits. The world felt more lived in, using "No NPC No Enemy" and raising its slider you get to see enemies from far away.
>>750661330>I found out a camping kits have a usage limitdon't think so. they can break when you get attacked while camping, but that never happened to me either
best pawn uhh thingy inclination? the ability they have

>>750661530genius
>>750661485>>750661330Okay i'm gonna use this opportunity to bitch>introduce new pawn specialization called Guardian>ostensibly protects you while you sleep>except not really>enemies can still attack you while you sleep, interrupting your rest>AND they can still break your shit>the only thing they do is "reduce" the chance of it happening, and if it does happen, you don't have to actually fight the trash mobs when you wake up in the middle of the night with a broken tentGreat fucking pawn specialization
Do all the lost rites dungeons give access to new loot during Unmoored World or just some of them?
>>750647471how good is the chara creator compared to the first one? can i still make a small boy with an amazon for a pawn?
>>750661527Orienteer if for no other reason than the food buffs are better. The rest are generally useless to varying degrees
>>750661942Unmoored just opens 3 new dungeons, it doesn't do anything to the others. You can exhaust them all but the 3 before going to Unmoored.
>>750661485Must have been an attack, I've had those happen a few times but there weren't any when this happened. Thx for correcting me in any case.>>750661678LOL.As a side-note. For the both of you, how's the DLC? Any notable new things in terms of pawns? I'd google it but value your opinion more.
>>750662043I asked because I redid two of them and it appeared to have new paths due to the water going away.
>>7506619424 of the old dungeons get a new chest or two. just recheck any of the ones that had any water in them.>>750662043lying negro
>>750661953very detailed
>>750662054rites dungeons are fun, the dlc region is very fun. some of the new gear looks great. new skills for every vocation and 6 skillslots, pawns themselves are still silly idiots. normalfags still spam that whitehaired bitch from that fantasy show and nu-kratos. fucking faggots.
>>750662338we must be better pawnsGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODSWAY
>>750662338>new skills for every vocation and 6 skillslots, pawns themselves are still silly idiots.FFFUUUUAAAARRKKKK. Can't wait to get to it, hope none of my mods are broken to shit. Godspeed bro.
>>750662054I really like the DLC, it's not perfect but it's great overall. Transmog is fun if you care about pawn fashion and some of the new outfits are actually nice. Endgame is a little repetitive but I guess it's not like Daimon runs through BBI were super engaging either. Meta is kinda busted, if you care about min/maxing endgame stuff there's basically only one build that's relevant (Battle Frenzy IV with immortality rings), and you only deviate if you want to intentionally gimp yourself to be creative. New skills are great, I run Fighter Arisen + Archer Pawn and both get some great new skills. Sorcerer got shafted however.
Pawn specialization scrolls should have just been a skill your pawn can permanently learn but you can only have one set at a time. Even though you CAN kind of switch between them, it's rather expensive and there is a limit. What the current system will probably do is just drive everyone to using orienteer as the meta since its the best one and just not worth swapping unless you really need elven wordsmith.
>>750662690right. forager is kinda useless after getting dlc gear?
>>750649381What are you even talking about? Absolutely mind broken
so if you take dlc gear to vermund no one can boost it for you?
Can you transmog basegame gear
>>750662923there's no need to boost it. you're going to murder everything with it as is
>>750662676Love the screenshot, thank you. I did like BBI runs simply to have a place to screw around with pawns and inclinations. (I can't believe I haven't run Fighter + Archer a lot, going to do that next time).
my pawns specialization?aphonite, nothing else
>>750662923No but generally even Lv1 or Lv2 DLC gear is going to mog anything from the base game, even maxed dwarven+wyrmsfire enhanced gear>>750662962You can't transmog base game gear but you'll never need to (see above) but you can transmog Norgan gear to look like base game gear
>>750649156Do it. Tap that Cussy
who is the "demon" this ghost keeps yapping about?
>>750663147>transmog Norgan gear to look like base game gearthats fine
>>750662676>if you care about pawn fashionTransmog + Arisen Atelier (for restoring hair under hats, plus hiding various clothing parts as well as changing their colors) really goes a long way for fashion. Seriously it kills the base game that all hats hide hair. I can maybe understand hoods, but this mods fixes a major problem is a godsend.Also extended character editor + hair extender
>>750663093Instead of BBI runs you get something more akin to like Diablo rifts, you run around in the overworld and activate these vortex things to start a boss rush where you gotta deal with waves of 2-3 bosses at a time + a ton of little guys and go through several waves of that.
>>750663284Satan.
>>750663306>extended character editorHow extended we talkin
Friends,Ended up playing DD2DA waaay more than I expected. Great expansion, although the fundamental flaws of 2 persist. 6 skills was a very welcome addition.I don't think there's another DLC for DD2 since leveling got really screwed with all the exp and pointless level-ups past 200, though.Transmog comes kinda too late, should've been unlocked once you defeat the Gagana.Hard mode is not that challenging but always keeps you on your toes instead of just simply facetanking most stuff like in Normal, so it's a positive addition. I don't play Dragon's Dogma for the difficulty but it's nice to be forced to play around monster movesets here and there or eat a lot of heals and maybe use a wakestone.
Which rings do you fine gentlemen put on your mage pawns?
>>750663147makes sense.
>>750663508two eternal bonds
>>750663396Enough to where I could lower the height, while getting the wide hips and small chest that I wanted for my pawn. There's a lot more you can do with it so it's worth it for sure. I don't think it will work online if I had to guess, but I don't really care.
>>750663624wtf
>>750663508Casting speed ring + Immune to Silence Ring.
>>750663508Alleviation to reach 100% silence immunity. The other is Rescitation obviously.
>>750663330Thanks, that makes sense. Not gonna lie, I was hoping the specter maisters had some hidden boss or secret encounter I hadn't found yet.
>>750663508Eternal bond on the left hand, fastest casting ring on the right hand.
>>750663687I think the only "secret" encounter is Death. I ended up playing a lot and never found it. But I didn't grind a lot of vortexes tbqh, mainly did a normal and a hard mode run through the dlc to see how different it feels in both modes.
>>750663649>>750663683Just carry those potions that cure silence. Not enough enemies do it to where you'd run out of them (though I'm not done with the DLC yet so maybe I just don't know). It's a good idea in theory, but you only can have two rings but carry hundreds of potions
>>750663319Uwa... no more... I'm tempted enough already because of what you two have said. Before I go, try out No NPC No Enemy on max sliders or the other newer ones that handle NPCs which I haven't tried out yet. Having no pop-in really changes things.
>>750649156It's time for your bone to be soaked, Dwayne.
>>750647878Strider was too good at everythingThe thief/archer split was a good move.
>>750663776Oh yeah, I found Death only once. Got my ass kicked and called it a day lol.I was mostly hoping there was some secret Warfarer Maister boss hidden somewhere. Feels like a missed opportunity.
>>750658208because 90% of the "difficulty" from the game comes from being ragdolled/stunlocked to death, with no way to regain control of your character and avoid subsequent hitsit's genuinely dogshit and feels like RNG or a cat mario tier rage game at timesespecially because of how janky the physic system becomes as soon as you try to climb something (DD1, from 2012, didn't have this issue btw)and even moreso because of the weird input latency/queueing and the fucked up animation/action priority system they've implemented. your character often doesn't do whatever the fuck you wanted it to do
>>750664329thats why archer is king
>>750664285no, the idea of a bow user not having a melee option is retardedthey just needed to make red and blue vocations more competent, rather than neutering yellows
>>750664329>with no way to regain control of your character and avoid subsequent hitsJust block with your shield or super armor through with the warrior before you get ragdolled.
Post goofy goats
>>750664402No it isn't
>>750664285>i hate funKys
>>750651130Kinoshita is the reason why Thief and Archer were split to begin with, since DD2 vocations are basically remakes of those from DDO (helmed by Kinoshita), with Trickster replacing Alchemist, and Mystick Spearhand combining both Spirit Lancer and High Sceptre and Shield Sage... Well, it's gone, but aspects of it still lie in Mage and Trickster
>>750664402>no, the idea of a bow user not having a melee option is retardedUh why? The point of a bow class is the bow.
>>750664402>neuteredThief and Archer are the two strongest, easiest vocations in the game.
>>750664560You ever wonder why the little goats have human facial features mixed in whereas the big goat is full on goat?
>>750664741What kind of a retarded bowman doesn't have a dagger or at least uses an arrow as a weapon
>>750664754Thats because archer literally has auto aim, it's the most braindead shit ever
>>750664851Idk why can’t my retarded character cast meteors anymore just because he has a pair of daggers in his pocket? It’s a video game nigger
They better bring Chilling Embrace back for DD3 I love this spell
>>750664851You could say the same for mages and sorcs, as well. At least the archer has some kick skills so you do have some last resort melee options. The archer is so abusrdly powerful that I don't really think it's a balance concern, just more of a preference that you'd like to use a dagger instead of a kick which I get
>>750663993Considering Alleviation is boosting everything else by 100% and usually also providing Sleep Immunity, it's still better.
>>750664992The fuck you talking about faggot?We are comparing DD2 to DD1, it's not unreasonable like you are pretending it is
>>Pawn caught dragonsplague>>With the patches there's now new dialogue where the pawn acts smug, brash and full of herself >>My pawn also happen to be petite, with blond twin tails >>Realised that I've stumbled upon mesugaki pawn Guys, what do I do? I don't want to cure her dragonsplague now....
>>750664754they're still way less fun to use than yellows from DD1that counts as neutered
>>750647471>those red rancor portals that summon tidal waves of ghoulsThis is rad as fuck.
>all those posts complaining about hitstun in this piss easy game with 50 different ways to no sell damage and pause healing/v/ really isn't beating the "shit at video games" allegations huh
>>750661678Yeah it feels like such a waste of a pawn specialisation. They should have made Guardian an ring-liked ability instead. Just take it on and off as needed, the RE engine should be able to handle that no problem. The specalisations really could've been more fleshed out given the time they're allowed on it. Woodland Wordsmith for example should have more perks than just the convenience of going to Sacred Arbor. I'd like to see a pawn with this specialisation casually swearing in Elvish or give some nerdy quips such as "the elves have a phrase for that..."
>>750665121Literally just play warfarer.
>>750664285Strider was middling at everything except climbing speed.
>>750665327warfarer has nerfed stats across the boardonly schizos play it
>>750664992>my retarded character cast meteorsAnother mod I will shill is pawn tactical wheel mod. Holy shit it fixes the AI. You can not only change their tactics (like only used range attacks, very good for mage/sorc pawns), but you can mark enemies and tell them to use specific spells and the fucking do it. You ever have a bunch of those wisp enemies around but your mage pawn just refuses to cast that holy spell? No longer a problem. Don't want to have to wait until the goat starts casting a spell before you pawn decides to start casting silence? Not an issue, just have the pawn cast it right away. The cosemetic stuff is whatever, but this mod makes it so it feels like I'm playing with the pawns and not against the AI.
Just finished the dlc and it was good but I felt there should have been one last mega dungeon near the end and no Death type monster ambushing you was disappointing.
>>750665361LOL
>>750665102Maybe because mages are about arcane knowledge and spells and not physical weapons? there are also spellswords that use magic and physical weapons literally in DD so your comparison doesn't even work, i don't get why you fags are so afraid of strider, his damage was extremely mediocre compared to sorcerer but more importantly he was fun to play>>750665327Not until they fix it so rearmament automatically triggersllllllllll when you select weapon skills
>>750665412did you do the lost rites?
>>750665449>are about arcane knowledgeTell that to Gandalf.

>>750665518Scottish Highlands and a desert
>>750665410I was pointing out that all vocation limitations are arbitrary lol. Why can’t a Warfarer cast Meteoron? Why can’t Archers use skull splitter with some side daggers? Cuz it’s arbitrary bro.
>>750665518No biome, just a rotting dungeon
>>750649156>will this help us sell more games?
>>750665518Mayans and Incas?
>>750665401Warfarer has like -60 in a game where you can get 1900 it’s completely irrelevant
Nobody hires LV 200+ pawns
>>750665401Its fine depending on if theres a certain set of skills you want to use, the stat debuff isnt really noticeable, the reason why you dont play it is because you dont get the maister skills, of which the new ones are great.I only play trickster and mage together in warfarer, and its become one of my favourite builds, and when playing magick archer I take a 2 handed sword because it doesnt need a lot of skills to be useful, you just have to time your swings. The stat difference isnt as bad as losing those maister skills.
>>750649156I had to drop that fag off the cliff. Wasn't about to have a furry fournival on my hands.

>>750647878You are fucking retarded if you believe that. He was the main gameplay designer for base DD2 and he also introduced whiteouts and blizzards in the DLC. The hardcore RPG experience stays.
I wish there were more enemy types in the rifts were they just afraid to make badges meaningless or something?

>>750665780He removed oxcucks and introduced healing that restores loss gauge for the whole party, these shit implementations were clearly made by shitsuno
>>750665757The lootboxes sucked in BBI and it sucks here. The base game is the best part of both games.
>>750665780>he also introduced whiteouts and blizzards in the DLCI hate him already.
>>750663993That is true but the game is so chill even on Hard when it comes to that kind of stuff that I sometimes setup things in order to not open the menus as much.Althought that kind of potion seems to be the kind of thing a pawn would use by himself.In 1 you'd get screwed by status effects way more often before your upgraded gear + cloaks gave you 100% resistances across the board.I guess you can put the other cast speed ring that doesn't fuck your HP, then.
>>750665730>95% of the armors added would be skimpy tribal setsyes please
>Itsuno wanted to turn DD into GTA with "emergent gameplay" where you'd have a crazy random adventure by just wandering out in the world>Also all of the spawns in the world are static and the only "random" thing that happens is that random NPCs beg you to escort them across the fucking planet for a pittanceWhat did he mean by this???????
>>750665928BBI>DD1 base game>norgan>shit>>>DD2 base game
>>750666031>there’s no way players will constantly backtrack to the first towns to make absolutely sure they don’t miss the obscure sidequest about finding some guys glasses they’ll make steady progress like I intended
KINOshita!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>750666031I think Itsuno might be more retarded than I originally thought
>>750665928I suspect you wont be playing DD3 when it has these systems from the outset then.
>>750666031>What did he mean by this???????"travelling should be fun!"
>>750665928>The lootboxes sucked in BBI and it sucks here.It is worse here. You not only roll for gear, you also roll for its effects and you aren't guaranteed to get something for your or your pawn's vocation.
>>750666345You can pay a miniscule amount of DCP to make almost all the drops for any vocation you want (some are always for you and your pawns class though)
>>750665113don't sleep in town and keep rawdogging your naughty msgk pawn in the wilderness, thenkeep in mind they have a tendency to lose it fast when it jumps to other pawns in the party, though
>>750666163>shieldpleb
>>750666109I think I got that quest because I went back to him because of the Sorcerer meister quest and a pawn directed me there.Maybe one NPC mentions he knows about these tomes, too.Anyway, I went back to him for the book and he asked for his glasses. But that's the kind of quest you'll never do ever again.>>750666345If you roll Gigantus Vim and Battle Frenzy IV that's probably all you need, so it's not thaat worse compared to fixed BBI loot tables if you didn't know about the vocation trick and even then that could take some killing yourself a dozen times.But yeah, if you are rolling for perfect effects, also accounting for special enhanced rolls, good luck grinding like a retard.
What new vocations would YOU add to Dragon's Dogma 3?
>>750647878>>750647471That's great and all but what I want for DD3 is this- Create my own Pawn Guild with 10 or more pawns(party size still 4)- Playable Pawns- Ability to travel with 4 Pawns from my Guild that I have created myself instead of just 1 main pawn + 2 hired- My Arisen can hired by other players and it mimicks my playstyle- Saurian playable race, Elf playable race, Dwarf playable race- Transmog available since level 1- Dyeing clothes- Mix and matching parts from different equipments- Hairstyle customization and longer hairs- Chemical warfare- Ability to place traps much like Monster HunterIs there anything else I'm missing for my dream Dragon's Dogma 3?
>>750666593Some sort of healer/support that isn't mage

>pawn is level 999>12,000 hp 3600 staminaOk I guess I just win now
>>750666870my pawn is the best so I win
>>750666608I think i'd be neat if players could send their pawns out in the field to do their own quests and retrieve materials in their own little teams and you'd get reports back on how they did
>>750666906My pawn would kick you’re pawns ass fuck you
>>750666732I don't understand how brawler isn't a vocation - I mean they got rings for brawling and bare-handed evasion in this game, so they clearly have thought about this idea but they never went through with it.
>>750649156What did he mean by this?
>>750666870>pawn that dies to the first magic attack coming her way>pawn that does shit for damage if mage/sorcerer
>>750647878Oxcarts>Portcrystals but exterminating beastren would be based. Maybe we'd get more characters with decent models outside of the elf village and arguably, to a small degree, the slums.
How do I gift equipments to pawns I've hired? I dismissed them and chose an equipment from my inventory but it never disappeared? Does that mean they never received it?
They should add human on beastren impregnation mechanics for the player
>>750666997He wants "stoutness extract" (viagra)
>>750649681It's a kino combo in many forms. Sometimes fatherly, sometimes brotherly, sometimes just really good friends.
>>750649156Same problem with this guy. All I did was his quest and how he comes waiting outside my house to hang out with me I'd rather his sister comes.
>>750667050Equip it to them before you dismiss. There's a warning popup that says you're giving it to them permanently

>>750663624uooooh;_;post sliders
>>750667271Thanks, the game really should've made it more spelt-out
>>750667454>>750667508>>750667554>class bloatLike what is “stealth” in dragons dogma
>>750667609catching enemies unaware to deal more damage, grab them for throws, accessing weakspots or kill them without alerting the grouplike literally any other comparable game
Kind of a controversial take of mine but I'd actually like it they'd used AI to have a lot more pawn voices and dialogue.Maybe less so in Ai writing the dialogue but I'd like them to be able to voice a lot more pawn dialogue and incorporate some more diverse voices, it doesn't even have to be fully AI but like assisted AI sentence mixing off of a large sample of voices.
>>750666593SummonerFor fuck's sake Capcom, you've already got the blueprint for it
>>750667712But those aren’t things in Dragons dogma lol. Well other than hitting weakspots, but every class does that.
>>750666757kek that nerd will think you are genuine
>>750667912>But those aren’t things in Dragons dogma lol...What the fuck are you on about?
>>750667886Would be an interesting use of it that they could react to more things without repeating dialogue. Like I feel the game needs more "combat" dialogue, they sound way too calm.
>>750667992It could be a very interesting experiment to have individual pawns have more distinct personalities and voices between players.
>>750667973Bro what you’re gonna sneak up on some fucking Goblins and that’s the class identity? It’s a game where you fight lots of big monsters
>>750668118you could sneak up on a big monster too you duncealso are you not aware that small monsters and big monsters can be paired up? and this is actually a rather common occurrence in DD?
>>750666593Mech pilot
I kind of hate how much the DLC has fucked the game's progression into a state where the only way you'd play it the way it's supposed to be played is by metagaming.What I mean is this: the intended way to progress, at least what the progression of rewards and difficulty is concerned is:>base game -> unmoored + lost rites -> Morganbut if you were actually in the arisen's shoes, there's be no reason to go to norgan or even give a fuck about it anymore once the whole reality has come undone and you're in unmoored. there simply would be no more reason to go investigate what's going on up there while the thread of reality is fucking untangling itself in real time. but that's the progression the game wants you to do, and it kinda annoys me.
>>750667409>Wouldn't it be cool if Thief lost all the mobility skills and the dodge step, and you put those on a different vocation>>750667454>Mage would be more fun actually if you cut it in half and it couldn't heal or debuff because that was put in another vocation
As the Arisen, you did:>Romance Sven's mom>Romance Gautstafr's wife>Romance Glyndwr's sister>Romance Ser Gregor's wifeRight?
>>750668631Across 4 playthroughs my beloveds have been>Ulrika>the red haired girl at the bar>the crazy old man>the elf dude
>>750668631Arisen are meant for Pawns.
>>750668631No, I didn't "romance" anyone. The dragon chose Bjorn as my beloved because I though gifting him flowers would get me a hawker tome. Didn't even get that.I think I got Caxton in DD1 so this is pretty on brand.
>>750668453Rogue, mage, warrior and scout in those pictures are just the starting classes. You swap them out with someting else.Either their advanced form (rogue becomes thief) which is just the same thing but better/more specializedor their alternate quirky cousin (rogue -> sellsword)or a hybridalso swift step is not mentioned anywhere lmao what are you talking about
>>750668843I just dont see my pawn like that. If your pawn comes back smelling like cum it was me though.
>>750668923>Wouldn't the game be better if there were vocations that become obsolete 15 minutes inIn fact, it wouldn't>swift step is not mentioned anywhereWhat do you suppose weaving in and out of combat (as opposed to thief being only about stealth) might mean?
>>750669176>In fact, it wouldn'tthen why bother differentiating between basic starter classes and advanced classes? just give me all of them at the start if they're to be on the same page>>750669176>What do you suppose weaving in and out of combat (as opposed to thief being only about stealth)any mobility option?either way it doesn't matter. both thief and rogue can weave and out of combat. thief has all of the rogue's kit. but thief has extra stealth optionsyou're getting hung up on NOTHING. you are getting flustered over some fanart
>>750666593Green Spearman, pole vaulting to evade and doing plunging attacks. He's like the Thief, but vertical and more overhead ambushing instead of sneaking behind backs.Yellow Bombast, firing a Handecannone loaded with various shot types, clubbing goblins with his pipe then shredding them apart with grapeshot.Purple Hunter, fights with a Sling Staff to pelt enemies with bullets. Can equip one of four Meister Skills to that passively determines the Pet he has by his side (Dire Wolf, Giant Eagle, Goliath Spider, Great Python), and some of his bullet skills are used to command the Pet to attack or act in a specific way.Blessed Knight, armed with a Longsword to fit between Fighter and Warrior, uses flowing sword skills and a set of stances to deflect enemy attacks/spells to charge up his holy retaliation. Turns his sword down and holds it like a staff to cast some spells. It's a revised Mystic Knight, obviously.Goetian Knight, armed with a great Poleaxe and extremely aggressive attacks. Invokes Auras that radically shifts his and/or his Pawns attributes to extremes at cost, but can mitigate said costs as long as the Knight is tearing through enemies flawlessly. One fuckup or stumble when at a high Demonic value and it can all crash to a total party wipe.
Anyone got hot female orc sliders? Also, have any of you had any luck with the mod that lets you add extra main pawns?
>>750666997Together with the blush I was very afraid that Im about to get raped cutscene-consensually
I wonder what the buildup rates and chance-to-inflict are.
>>750669842My experience has been none of this shit does anything and it you have BF IV^ and your skills of choice that’s all you need.
>>750647471Whatever happened to that anon who was gonna vibecode in the DDON classes?
>>750647878I could accept cats being just an NPC race but it would be a moderate loss.
Has anyone made the false Sovran's pawns? Like the tall one with the sledgehammer.
>>750669842>>750669984I had the frost bow and the frost sword from the DLC, and I've had it proc on the gagana as well as drakes. You need fast attacking skills that build it up fast, though.
>>750669842I played with blighting strike + cataract shot for early to mid norgan as part of warfarer and that usually procced within 1-2 skill uses
>>750670115Probably realized that isn't something you just do with one prompt and no work
Am I missing out on anything worth caring about by skipping the unmoored world lost rites dungeons?I had intended to do a full playthrough of the base game including all the lost rites dungeons first, and then go to Norgan immediately after reaching Vermund in NG+, but the unmoored world is really sapping my desire to keep playing.
>>750671998I havent' done them and finished the norgen line just fine.I think they have these sort of t4.5 almost-BiS weapons you can reroll, but that's it, and the norgen endgame drops are better.Also not-Beholder fights which are annoying and actually better when you come back with norgen gear
I'm almost done with the game. The DLC was pretty good, I hope we get another one or DD3 sooner rather than later. Gonna miss my pawn.
>>750671998I saw some anon talking about a ring that gives fully immunity, and I think it's in one of the UW rite dungeons but I'm not sure.
is there an upper limit on the stat boosts you can get from rolls? everytime i think i hit max on a relic i find one with like 1-2 more points.
>>750647878Don't forget the shit story, I hope that they put DD2 lore to rest for ever for being fucking trash
>>750666031Don't even make me talk about how the main quest is centered around a fucking place where you don't even fight anything in a game where the main gameplay is about killing monsters
Never noticed this asshole shows up again after the prologue. Kinda shocked he doesn't recognize us or have any special dialogue.
>>750666997beastren have barbed dicks, you need proper preparation
>>750674090His dead ass is locked in one of the houses with the staff in Unmoored
Okay. I've done all the Rites. My Pawn has maxed every vocation. I've done all the quests. It's down to going to Norgan or triggering the Unmoored World. Suggestions? What's the best way to handle? I'm level 75
>>750674090he's raped a billion pawns, in his eyes you were just another disposable onahole
>>750656197
>>750674249There are more rites in the Unmoored World, evil eye included
>>750674336I know. I'm asking what to do now because I couldn't fucking SCRATCH the Evil Eye. I just slowly killed all the viles and tentacles and it finally repelled.
>>750669842They're 2%/4% chances to inflict per strike depending if it's normal or enhanced versions and come with a 3m/2min cooldown.
>>750674249*visit* Norgan, get demolished, recieve some slight story info, get the portcrystal there, do not pick up anything, portcrystal back to vermund, start unmoored, do not finish unmoored, clear norgan.
>>750674437First Evil Eye encounter is scripted to always fuck off, you can kill his ass next time he shows up.
>>750674481I mean I was Magic Archer but it was comical how invincible he was. Really demoralizing. Really fuckin' upsetting. Kino fight tho. >>750674470I assume I'm to trigger Unmoored in order to open up the final Rites so I can pop on over to Unmoored for those when I want/need?
>>750666593Trickster but fixed
>>750651647I think just capping loss to 50% would work fine. Its outside of 1 hit territory for the tankier classes, and a good penalty without it being a fucking nuisance in battle.If they would remove loss entirely, I would want healing to have some other drawback, like needing a quick animation, else it would be retarded to be chugging potions mid-ragdoll back up to 100%
>>750666593>ability to kiss and princess carry my pawn>ability to kiss npcs
>>750674090Anon... You didn't go save the poor imprisoned pawns in unmoored world?
What should I buy with my ducats after the new augment slot?
>>750666997How many times do you have to punch this disgusting faggot before he stops blushing and making flirty gestures at you?
do you guys think my party is cute?
>>750674584Pause healing and instant healing shortcuts should both be removed regardless of what they do with the loss gauge
>>750674787That's the main one, the rest is mostly gimmicks. Most people save for the Riftslut armor.You might actually prefer to buy the consumables, depending on what you're lacking.
>>750674573Pretty much. doing it that way lets you do both final rites and norgan in the same run. The norgan starting quest is seemingly inaccessible in unmoored, so you visit it before then to gain ferrystone access as you see fit.So basically: visit norgan -> return home -> unmoored -> final rites -> norgan -> finish unmooredbeing in norgan does not progress the unmoored timer.
>>750675163Understood. Thanks so much. Have an old DD:DA PS3 Screenshot for your troubles
>>750675259no problem. glad i could help.
I’m wondering why a new player would waste time dragonforging endgame gear when they could just go to the dlc and instantly get better shit.
>>750675373dragonforged lost rite stuff stays good for a long timebut dragonforged unmoored gear is worthless now yeah
>>750674987You have a type
>>750665412>no Death type monster ambushing youhe doesn't know
>>750675373a lot of the decisions seem more like they were worried hard mode norgan might be *too* hard, so instead they let you cheese it by doing unmoored lost rites beforehand, but paradoxically unmoored lost rites seem to want early norgan gear on hard mode, so it's a yin-yang corner case kind of deal
>>750675373A new player is supposed to use the new stuff asap, just like Guardian set is made so you skip older shit in MonHun World to get to the current content.It's weird how DD2 implemented it back and forth in base game but it's how many games with better expansion-tier gear or mechanics work.
is there gear that only drops or can you buy everything from vendors? i haven't seen the full gryphon set sold anywhere. also what does the conversion for MA do??
>>750676245Griffon set is probably sold across Checkpoint Town and Bakbattahl.Darkmetal Greaves for the Meloirean Plate can only be found in a cave IIRC. That's the only pre-UW unique gear I remember.There are many exclusive armor pieces only found in the Unmoored World section.
>>750676245All the niche gear is from chests, exploring, etc. Some monsters drop gear as well but it's uncommon.Armor sets in DD2 are separated, you have to find each piece in different locations and each will have matching resistances.
>>750676412>>750676476damn that sucks thank you
>>750667409>>750667454>>750667508>>750667554Most of these would just be pointless bloat but a duelist with a sword and a dagger instead of a shield sounds pretty cool to me.
>>750676245>Conversion for MAPressing triangle to swap between Rivet Shot and Pinpoint Volley?Pinpoint Volley is the larger targeting reticle which locks on to multiple enemies simultaneously. Useful to pepper a group or a big guy with multiple lock-on points.Rivet Shot cuts the reticle size in half so you need to aim better, but it rapidly locks on to a single target in the circle. If you have the enemy in your circle as soon as you aim and get all Rivet Shot lock-ons as fast as possible, the moment you get to 8 Lock-On pips is the perfect time to release the bow to get the bonus damage from Climactic Arrow.
>>750677134wish i knew that before lol
>>750647878Beastrens are the only reason I brought and sunk 142 hours in this game bro
>>750677360disgusting.
>>750677510Cope, humie. I boughted and had a blast.
When do i start the the dlc? after unmoored world?
>>750677836If 1st playthrough do unmoored world and do dlc in ng+
Is there aught to do something else in DD1:DA after reaching level 200?
>>750677909but make sure to do the rites in the unmoored world on your first run* or else you can't unlock all the obelisks without doing the unmoored again (problem for players that were on NG+ before the DLC)
>>750677360I hate the beastren, they should roar like lions, not yell like humans and have snouted faces where human helmets don't fit them.They can have some passive armor instead
Cannot decide between blue triangle battle frenzy 4 vs regular battle frenzy 4 but with +15% higher knockdown power
>>750678465Upgraded BF4 is bonkers if you can get around the extra glass cannon effect.Increases damage dealt by 200% and damage taken by 100%. Pawns deal more damage to foes possessed by a simulacrum. Enhanced: 300% / 150%.
Reminder to dress your boy pawns in female clothing till they fix their attitude problems.
Just got to Battahl and the main story is a drag, bros. I don't know that I can make it to the DLC.
Don't think I've seen it this bad before, or maybe it's just the lighting. Her eyes are practically glowing.
>>750669496>Blessed KnightBased, but no greatshield is no goodHave it be a stance switch between holding the shield and two handing the sword, with a bunch of skills that function differently in each
>>750679442She's about to pop
>>750678091I fedl that. Wish they went a bit further, give them a tail for christ sake. But they clearly didn't want to so I just ate the food at that was prepared.
>>750679435the main story in battahl is literally just walk for a couple of minutes then bring 15WLC to Ambrosius.It takes longer to do the Talos section than the entire Battahl main questline.To be precise, the story simply and abruptly ends, then it's Moonglint Tower.
My save is currently mid ng+Did they ever make ng+ harder and can I start the dlc whenever I want?
>>750679773Yeah, I probably should just speedun it. My tendency is to do all side quests, but fuck me every monster is so weak all of my time is just spent walking past goblins right now.
>>750679773kek just did the talos mission, I thought you were supposed to run ahead to the quest marker at the mining camp but no you're supposed to wait 10 minutes for big nigga to mosey his ass on over

was there a mod with added an npc from which you could buy all the items in the game?
>>750647878>>archerIs there a particular reason so many developers always shit on bowmen?

>>750679925NG+ is still the same difficulty, but you can switch to Hard mode immediately, I think. It's a one-time deal, so if you don't switch now, you have to beat the game to switch difficulty later.And as long as you haven't hit the red zone, you can start the DLC.
>>750680220Okay I looked up the quest details and I may be retarded, it didn't occur to me that I was supposed to be fighting him because he was specifically following the wizard dude and wasn't bothering meI thought maybe he was gonna climb up the big colisseum so I tried riding on his shoulder while all the ballistae were firing at him

Is there a way later on to learn the weapon skills attached to weapons permanently? I'm a retard and need to try and gimp myself for the base game but I still wanna use the fun new skills
>>750680256Because the devs are cringe. Thankfully, Kinoman is not cringe and gave archers fucking CLOUDBURST.
>>750681508>you can finally get cloudburst when you have already finished 95% of the contentUhh?It's....something.I.Guess?

Why doesn't NG+ increase the difficulty?
>>750681703Yes. I will be using it frequently for the next hundreds of hours as I do modded bosses and quests.

>>750681903Why should it?
>>750682158It's not even just needing to travel across norgan, to get cloudburst you literally have to finish 95% of the main story of the dlc

>>750683521>no augments or skills equipped on any of their other maxed out vocationsThey could've gone into NG+. For some reason, it fucking unequips all skills and augments. So they just fix up their current vocation and don't bother with the rest until they switch to it.

>>750684419I don't have to imagine. These fucking "people" enslave pawns and think this is a good thing. When I'm Sovran, I will close the border checkpoint and then drop a fucking brine nuke on Bakbattahl.
>>750685648doesn't the nuke set off after a certain amount of time no matter if you're staying at the inn or not?
>>750684419You know they're chopped as hell when not even furries give a shit about them
Eternal ferrystone was a mistakeThat feeling of every quest or play session being an expedition is goneNormies love the game now because it 'respects their time'
Ferrystone: EternalTime: RespectedBlast: HavingOh yeah, it's gaming time
>>750685840i don't have the will to not use it. yes, i'm just a dumb pawn. where is my arisen?
>>750685840DLC should have been purely monsters in square dungeons, fuck RPG parts fuck pawns, fuck quests, I'm here to blast action skills off cooldown on big monstersMH Wilds is my favorite MH game btw
>>750666593The normal spear/halberd master, not this gay mystic shit.
>>750684419I originally had nothing against Beastren, but after learning that Pawns aren't allowed in Bakbattahl and how they enslave pawns, I changed my mind. Total beastren death.
>>750685840Dumbfuck retard opinion.>muh expeditionSpawns are static. You pass through an area once you've seen what it all has to offer. Eternal Ferrystone should have been in the base game, especially when you factor in DOGSHIT RETARD SIDEQUESTS that force you to go BACK AND FORTH between cities to talk to ONE person every step. FUCK you and FUCK Shitsuno.
>>750685840Agreed, though I will say, the original map was dog shit. The majority of it feels like linear paths, which is odd for how big it actually is. With the way spawns and monsters work too, it becomes a huge chore to do anything outside of the cities and side quests being "talk to this person now go back and talk to this person" repeat ad nauseum is infuriating. Norgan does a lot to make the map feel a lot better and more natural. But the original map was a mistake.
>>750685840The game is like 80 hours long already and exploring shit isn't really that fun given the random nature of loot, making it even more tedious doesn't help anyone
what other new big monsters are there?the harder to find ones i mean, like the draug

>>750686784?where was that before the dlc?
I shouldn't have played it last year with the deunovo performance penalty and shitty optimization I should've waited for the update
>>750686709Fire chicken, ice dragon, super ice cyclops, resident evil cyclops, white ogre, not lich that teleports, and bleating she goats in 3 flavors
>>750686906Performance fixes don't really make the game better, unfortunately. Personally, I was just fucking happy when the game was over. I didn't have that issue with 1/DA. Shit sucks.
Just finished the Proving Ground. What the fuck was that ending? I don't get it.
>>750686906base game is a slog compared to the dlc althobeitalmost pointless even
I hope someone makes a skip-base game mod that immediately gives me the Godsbane blade, puts me in Norgan, gives me all the maister skills, and lets me instantly teleport to the Lost Rites
>>750657562>hes too dumb to throw the poison jars at the slimes
>>750687123what's the proving ground again?
>>750687332The final gauntlet in the Unmoored World.You fight through a bunch of bosses, then the ending shows some tentacle shit inside a chalice, the Pathfinder starts rambling, and then... that's it?I honestly couldn't tell if I failed, missed something, or got the intended ending. The whole thing left me confused.
>>750647878Beastren aren't cute and fuckable and I'm tired of pretending otherwise. Although that one fire priestess bodyguard in Batahl was pretty cool. Wish we actually fought alongside some of these NPCs.
>>750674090I threw his ass personally off the very same cliff he chased me out of before I reached the end of the game, so I guess I missed this unmoored content the other anons say.
>>750665121Lol no, DD1 cultists are insane
>>750687613Ironically >>750686763That is kinda what the pathfinder is talking about. "Im here cause the seneschal is messing up order and your will is pretty deserving of their position. If I wasn't constrained by the shit basegame story I'd help you out but do what ya gotta do, I'll watch."
Does this game have yellow brap clouds that help me find the way
>>750684419Ignore the fags, she's cute
>>750688109Always figured that the pathfinder was the seneschal, but now I'm confused considering the schizo cat gifts you a godsbane.

>>750688341Pathfinder is an arbiter of the eternal ring. Seneschal are stewards. Its honestly something I was puzzled by when dd2 first released. Everyone just thought "pathfinder control freak is shitter evil" but no one looked at the person who pulled a Duke Edmund as the fucking seneschal
>>750681903I prefer it doesn't, NG+ gives me a chance to curbstomp and have my character behave like the indisputed champion of the world.
If I make a pawn with just a hairstyle/tattoo from the DLC, can it still be rented by people who have the vanilla game? It seems like a stupid question but if you have your pawn wear the pre-order gear it’s no longer available to vanilla norganlets
>>750682521Wish I could do the same but the Sphinx riddle involving finding her parent had me grab a beastren for the first time.
>>750689724The Great Journey wait for no one, Arisen.

I'm sorry blast havers, but after hearing the soundtrack of Dragons Dogma again I'm back in BBI grinding for loot.DD2 has no soul and a lot of bullshit that's just tedious and floaty. I miss the precision and clarity of Dragons Dogma and I know that a third installment will not have it either. People might say it would be too "gamey"
>knock the eye ball over>it falls into the small pool>no pawn badge>no dropsFUCKING BEASTREN PIECE OF SHIT
>>750647471Nyo.
>>750647471Just did my first ever fight against super-satan as Warrior. That was fucking miserable holy shit, but still fun. Though it was made a lot worse by an anon's archer pawn I hired, they would not stop dying CONSTANTLY so I was babying them the entire fight.
>>750691375Do NOT hire pawns with battlefrenzy unless you have reviving arrow as their little asses will drop like flies
>>750691442BF 1 and 2 seem fine, don't hire BF4's 100%.
>>750691375Warrior gets mogged hard against some enemies because of all the time it takes to get away from stuff if it starts during an animation, even if you press R1.Remember getting toasted by Gagana thrice and not being able to do much other than curative spam or wakestoning.But it's the most fucking satisfyins vocation ever, especially if you land Arc of Might pumped by Blood Oath.
>>750689724People who only have the vanilla game do not play this anymore. Lots of abandoned pawns from 2 years ago.Also I think the preorder bonuses do not matter at all. I remember hiring some pawns with those and they cost a little RC even at my level. Did it just before I bought the dlc while testing new save slots.
>>750691442Yeah, just noticed they had battle frenzy 4 on. Genuinely didn't feel like whatever damage they were doing was a good trade off for just how often they were eating shit. Feels like it only works if you're a tank tricker (to have aggro 100% of the time) or magic archer (to pick them back up instantly)
>>750688341>>750689479This.Rothais is the Seneschal, still is, but got crazy/bored out of that and never bladed'd himself out of it.For whatever reason that makes the Brine go the extra mile to keep the cycle going and that leads to the Pathfinder, he's just a fucking janny.And maybe he's seen so many cycles he really doesn't care either way if you're doing what he "wants" or openly defies the cycle in a less retard manner than Rothais or Phaesus. He'll guide you anyway.He's like a Dungeon Master going with players giving no shits about his campaign. "Oh, you want to ride this dead animal, ignore your quest and go north? That's not in this session... but ok, it's now suddenly alive again! Go have fun, fucker."And Dark Arisen 2 literally confirms all the multiverse implications the series always had. Maybe the janny is part of even that.
>>750691759Knockout strikes and forceful strikes are better.>>750692108Battle frenzy 4 is only acceptable if you're buffing the pawn that has it with harmonic pentad AND its an archer. They will melt super satanand keep his attention 24/7
>>750647471I would play as a cat man, but I am also fantasy game fatigued. Maybe if it goes on sale in the future.
