>>587315815Now that you mention it, after I installed that full name no moniker mod I realize I barely see any Kanji/Katakana named pawns, even really well equipped, rich looking, endgame ones, offering 5x allheal quests.Japanese players are kinda stingy. Low-wage, deflationary mindset instead of inflationary growth mindset.

Iðunn tuff.I particularly like this prawns name because I used to use the name "Ástríðr" in another game, also with the Norse characters.
>>587317024What's that?
I want Ulrika's pants.But I can't have them without mods and I don't want my pawn banned so what pair of pants comes closest to that delicious cheek museum?
It's honestly fucking crazy the DLC didn't end with Dorin going "Hail Ser Arisen thank you for saving our humble village, we have fixed up the broken down house in the south of the village and would be honoured if you called it home, aught perchance." I know it's functionally the same as the inn but still...>>587317638Some Nonny here sends prawns home with pockets full of meat and slime.
>>587316491That's not the same thing. The item requested for a quest is given by speaking to the pawn, selecting "Give Item", and completing the delivery. That item disappears from your game and you get the quest reward. If you want to use an Archer's Skills, you just move however many arrows you want to their inventory and the an Archer with the corresponding skill will use them up.

Dragonforged Riotus for increased AI propensity on downed enemiesCalm Arcanist; give silence, halidorn, anodyne tomes for good off-heal and utility.Quest: Give 3x anodyne grimoires (buyable from vendor expedition vendor guy with a ponytail, the green books) for 5x All HealsShe got a godroll armor upgrade from a rancor reinforcements + satanachia ender run that dropped 56 total artifacts yesterday.

Tested out with DPS meters, she can do 40% or more of the party's damage especially if she has Iðunn or another tank keeping aggro off her.Quest: Give 1 explosive arrow to get 50 blighting arrows (gold value ca. 200k), what a steal!
>>587318009I was also disappointed by this
>>587318521It is the kind of thing that if they want to they COULD add in a later update as it would be pretty easy to just change the house model and add in a usable bed and chest. Maybe. Ugh, probably not! But maybe.I love these sort of RP immersion adding things but most people don't care I guess.

>>587319831Unless the slow motion in your clip is intended, and presuming you're using Minimax H3, I recommend using longer prompts, shorter clip length and reducing the weight of any turbo loras you're using. From one goonslopper to another.
>>587318930NTA but I agree with you fully.I feel they went into "game logic" a lot in this DLC, which even seeped into quest and NPC dialogues.Like the final quest for Polyeidus and the whole reveal of the guy's wife etc etc fucking ends with a "Meet me in the settlement and I'll explain everything, oh and there's a reward in it for you of course" like BROTHER I'm trying to be at least slightly emotionally invested here

>no blue arrow on BFInto the trash it goesAnyone else plagued with horrendous luck lately?
>>587320437I completely agree, I was going to say something about how the DLC is great but it lost a lot of that Dogma soul in favour of being more conventionally "good" and attracting a more median gamer (the type of people who had nothing but complaints about vanilla) but felt people had seen me bitch about the DLC too much lately so didn't. Itsuno is immersive sim fantasy. Kinoshita makes more traditional gamey experiences and this is just that being taken to a much further extreme than BBI.I still enjoyed the story a lot though in DA2.
Can I give Everard the real jadeite orb and Offulve the fake and get both quest rewards? I don't wanna screw over Effulve...he's a good boy. I know that I can pay the forger to falseify the fake one but 12,000 isn't worth it. So I was wondering if the above way works.
>>587320824I'll keep an eye out anon preciate ya
>>587316939I wonder what happened to her actual pawn. Maybe it got squished by the dragon and she lost the will to go on, then later she came across Gautstafr and he healed her broken heart.

I think Cliodhna might enjoy extremely rough sex and her poor dwarf husband's back can't keep up.
>>587319327Enjoy hell whore.
Cleared the final lost rite last night. Need a few more things like two more sphinx kills and a handful of lesser dragons and then will be totally badgemaxxed. So close I can taste it
>>587321118You will get both rewards that way but Offulve will eventually return to town and will complain to you that the Orb was a fake, he hints at being disappointed and that you kind of screwed him over but doesn't outright say it.
>>587321064I got a boosted ice elemental + snatching-beast foil on a pair of pants several times... for red/yellow vocations. Also got like six boosted gigantus vim/provoking aura helmets for blue vocations.
>>587321064there's literally nothing wrong with this roll, why do you absolutely need a twitter checkmark on BF IV?
>>587315129>DD2>PC>Mip>22>Thief>NWYJ24ZIX745He's a little fella.
>>587322170>twitter checkmarkLOL
>>587320287That was a very early gen, it's a very simple prompt and tries to keep the in game graphics. It's true to the reference screenshot.
>>587322170Because it takes the damage from 200% to 300%?
>>587322689If this was for a warrior, I'd understand. But for a fighter, nah, unless you're chasing the numbers dopamine or something.

>>587323347Had to be done.
>>587322573Got any magical words that help keep it the game's style? I myself am using a Ref2v workflow and using the [reference generation] key term, which works okaaaay, but I quite like the results you were getting and was wondering if there was more I could do.
>>587319327>>587319831>>587323951i am very embarrassed to say i love /ddg/sloppa
>>587324849Me too. I wanna see more of eyepatch sluts big booba
what mod you do guys use to swap(cheat) the gacha skills around?
>>587325131Would like to know too, I don't think staff 1501 is going to be the lucky winner.I just want to change ONE skill.
>>587321118>but 12,000 isn't worth itIs a single pawn quest really that difficult for you? Money isn't difficult to come by.
>>587323951To be honest, I have almost no idea what I'm doing but I actually use fl2v so it probably doesn't change things as much as ref2v. For that particular video just the standard line: For the target video, at 0.00 seconds into the target video, <Picture 1> (from [Shot 1]) is fully referenced. For the longer videos I've made I run the prompt through a llm and it usually spits out something like: the visual style remains consistent with the reference images, but the results don't seem that different from yours?
I'm tired bros.All I'm doing is farming Satan for that godroll, but then what? Even if I get that perfect gear I'm after, what do I have to use it on? More Satan farming?
She steals your money if you give her the wrong item
>>587325808Now I have a mental image of her holding you upside down by the legs in a paw and shaking until money falls out of your pockets
>>587326028If you give her the wrong item a second time, she takes 100k then even more the 3rd time but I only had like 140k left on me so she took all of it
Sorry, but she't turned evil. It sucks, but it had to happen.
>>587326107Why would you even do it, just to see what would happen?
>>587325651>farm Satan for the roll I want>I'm satisfied, and then realize 4 skill weapons were always the most fun anywayI've reached enlightenment.
>>587326337yeah, more dialogueShe insults you after every incorrect answer then says you're being obtuse on purpose on the 3rd one. I just reloaded my save and got my money back
>>587315129>PC>Marinera>Lvl 169>Calm Thief (Orienteer)>XVWYO9D4GMJC>Camp in Norgan for 5 Allheal questSet up with Giga vim + inversion rings. Recently finished the Gagana badge (thanks to everyone who helped), so now it's back to camping.
>>587325626Yeah alright that's about the same as me then, supposedly H3 is designed around making your prompts through llms as it demands a certain level of verbosity in order to achieve 'higher quality' outputs. Based on my own extensive experimentation I'd say that is true for Ref2v and t2v workflows but you can get away with much simpler prompts with fl2v.It's cool tech but at the same time it really can be a pain in the ass to get it to do what you want, especially with ref2v.

>1/101270 probablityI'm hopefully too sleepy and counting something wrong.There's 41 different probable buffs/skills a staff may have not counting frosted edge, counting every Saurian I-III and upgrade^.You have four specific ones you want.You have 4/41 to get the first one, 3/40 to get the second one, 2/39 for the third, 1/38 for the last.Now it is weighted somewhat, clearly, so it has to be a little more sunny than that but what the fuck. @grok, is this real?

>>587325651I want to replay the base game on NG+ but everything turns to dust with my weapons. I hope it's not completely over yet and we get some crazy difficulty mode or something, so we can use the shiny gear elsewhere instead of being stuck in the rancors
>>587315129>DD2>PC>Dangan>lvl 55>Straightforward Guardian Fighter>0MKY0NYH6N64>likes Launchboard too muchTrying out Gutting Skewer on her again since it seemed like it was really good damage, she likes to climb things, and I never noticed her properly using Flawless Guard much. She did use it, but it was only as an attack rather than escaping hitstun as far as I could tell. If survivability decreases due to being stuck in place too much, I'll put Flawless Guard back on. Considered replacing Launchboard with one of them while using magic classes, but I don't want to take away her favorite move.Also, I don't think those last hires were anyone from here, but if so thank you for all the gifts! I need to get more rare/useful stuff like that myself so I can properly gift back. Sure were a lot of bones too though

>Seafloor Sepulcher on Hard Mode cleared before doing norgan bc I really wanted the greatswordJeeeesus, fucking huge difficulty jump between the pre-UW Evil Eye lost rite and this oneThe fighter pawn had mid norgan gear but it wasn't nearly enough, she was getting bodied over and overHad to use 3 hearts, dozens of healing items and 5 allheals for my pawns during the the evil eye, must have taken 40 minutesThe dungeon is quite fun, a lot of creative and challenging rooms, and really appreciated the allheals as rewards for exploration and platformingThis specific dungeon had some heavy Bitterback Isle vibesTime to do Norgan finally, I'll get back to the UW World when I'm towards the endBtw, my current roll on the greatsword has a bonus against "demons". Exactly which enemies do count as demons?
>>587329306All these anons quitting just as we're about to get 'Dragon's Doggystyle - a unified loverslab framework' and 'Dogma' s Defeat' bakaThreads are gonna be wild, acrimonious, and NTR coded

Where's the artbook...Or is it like I originally thought and there going to be so much cut content they can't release it?
>>587321064BF is boring
In retrospect, I feel like the game was better served with a smaller range of gear with fixed stats that made you adapt to the gear rather than an endless flood of gear with a pool of different stats that you have to endlessly grind to find the perfect combination for your tastes. With the former, the focus was more on what you could do with the gear that you had, with the latter the focus is all about getting the gear.
>>587321064That's actually pretty good.

>>587315478As promised, Medusa kill. Aka had a quest too like you said, so I took her as well, that was 3k RC. I'm going to keep them and take her to the final proving ground, I need to reroll that GS one more time.
>>587338491I've just had a thought, could we kill satan ex with medusa head?
>>587338202She does it all, really. She's dragonplauged right now, but it's fine she's still my largely loyal pawn wife.
>>587338478Four Ex that's all you need
>>587337873That's a nearmin damage roll, you can get up to 1810s without twitter verified strength. But the knockdown and skills are gud.
>>587338681I think he's asking if the colour scheme is inspired by the white mage job from Final Fantasy.
>>587338640I don't think so, but even if it was possible Satan moves way too much for the medusa head to be effective.
>>587338681>>587338202Forgot my pic.
>>587338856thiccer than a bowl of oatmeal
>>587338792Yeah but that's a much rarer drop, BF increase your damage to such a disgusting degree that 1700s isn't bad because the skill makes up for it.
>>587338312That was my first complaint and my complaint in DDDA too where EX skills are tied to rings. Why couldn't be it gameplay related where you have to beat this enemy or boss X times or acquire X rare times then exchange to unlock the EX skill.
>>587338825Ahhh. No actually there is this old fan image of Bloodborne of the fall of Cainhurst castle. I don't really remember it other than it was red and white color motiff, and I thought it worked well in Norgan's snowy area. >>587338917She needs to stay warm in the winter.
>>587338994Fair. It's a decent sword, don't get me wrong, but the way strength minus defense base damage and bf mult works means a bf4 sword with 1800+ will do a ton of more damage, not just 100 difference, but like 20% more
>>587339160It's just a matter of whether or not it drops, that's the thing. But yeah it can go way higher.

>Evil Eye gets knocked down while floating atop the pool of water>it fucking gets brined and diesWURT
>>587343243Which cape is that?
>>587343243>straightforwardMight I suggest making him Calm instead? He has a tendency to run off chasing stragglers, or worse, climb big enemies thus losing their aggro.
>>587343243>Camp at Norgan for 10 or 20 Aged Beast SteaksDon't mind if I do..
>>587344772Lol, I didn't know that was possible.
>>587344812>climb big enemies thus losing their aggroEvery pawn does it regardless of inclination We can only hope Capcom patches that bullshit "I'll boost you up" feature.
>>587344937Yeah, but Straightforward does it significantly more than the others, it's basically unusable for anyone but Thieves.
>>587344937They only do the boost thing if you are nearby, that said I would prefer if that was a command instead of an automatic thing. They took so much control away from use, I still miss the struggle mechanic.
>>587345090Nah I have a calm and straightforward pawn, it's when larger monsters are near to them, their AI goes nuts and the first thing they think about is "climb" even mages do it when they're near larger monsters for more than 5 seconds.
>>587344805Linen Cloak>>587344812Straightforward works better for what I like tanks to do. I like how straightforward pawns go off on their own and take the enemies with them. Theres always gonna be some exceptions with the aggro but I think his setup generates so much aggro that anywhere he goes, 90% of the enemies will go towards him. I also dont like the male calm voice that much even if he is aphonite.
>>587344937I ended up using a mod to block that feature, might grab another mod to make it so only thieves climb or something like that
Is the lack of cross-platform pawn sharing Sony's fault or Capcom's fault?
>>587345521Probably a nightmare since it's DD2 is on Nintendo too
Finally, I wonder if this thing will actually work as advertised...https://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/2546?>Pick whatever voice you want for your pawns in the character creator, and use this mod to change their behaviour to whichever inclination.>In the character creator for your pawns, select the voice that you want (and the respective inclination required for that voice). Then, use this mod to pick the inclination for the pawns behaviour (like combat or exploring) during gameplay. >The pawn will have the voice chosen during character creation but behave like whatever you set with this mod. This mod doesn't touch your saves and it only works locally.>Can also be used to change the inclination of hired pawns.
>>587345676Cool shit. Inclination and voice shouldn't have been locked together to begin with.
>>587345770Are VAs that much expensive nowadays? DDON had 10 voices to choose from.
>>587345416Which mod is that?
>>587346103and 8 personalities
>>587346103Idk much but I'd assume JP VAs are easier to source, and they might have been expecting DDON to do numbers so they probably invested more at the time.
Are there any ways to avoid grabs with Warrior? Snowfoot is using me to wipe the floor

>>587346465But yeah, it was really dumb combining voices and inclinations together, it took away more customization choices from the players. Better yet, remove inclinations entirely and make your own while being able to choose the voice and personality of your pawn.
>>587344937I haven't actually seen that a lot, maybe it's because I tend to play ranged vocations so I'm usually not that close to the big monsters myself.
>>587346675>Provoking AuraOn a thief? For Effortless Kill shenanigans?
>>587346829Nah she's a dodge tank2 year old webm of her style
>>587347000I love that clip, the way the last goblin just starts backing up when she advances menacingly on him is hilarious
>>587346564Just positioning. Mashing jump at the end of an attack will move you further away than a barge will especially if you have that one relic ability where the wind pushes you. If you have all the charge speed relics then you can also charge up a Razing Sweep/Ruin and aim it away to run away as a ghetto dodge.
I have literally never found Rodge alive because the quest is so fucking weird about giving you information. I found his bones ONCE like a year ago.

>>587346103>>587346247Let's hope DD3 will have at least half of these options.
>>587347139It is weird, I assumed he was supposed to be at graveyard with the Lich since thats where the blue flowers sort of stop. Never knew I had to walk down further and go into some bumfuck cave to find him.

>>587347594Worst part is there's just a vacant house in Norgan.

>>587347794
>>587347878I had at least 5 different level 5 mage robes with Wicked Knight^ appraised at this point, its some bullshit I tell ya
>>587347525>>587347794Dunban, my fucking belovedPossibly my favorite grizzled mentor type character, the fact he doesn't wait until the end of the game to join you helps alot I think
>>587348180Does that only apply to physical damage or something?
>>587348228The Arisen's canon wife is so cute
>>587348228I like that she's, like, realistically attractive. The kind of cute girl you could see in real life.
>>587348256Only works for charged melee attacks, so it's only good for Warriors and Fighter if you love spamming Tusk Toss and don't want a wasted slot on the weapon.
Dunban enjoyers are plentiful in this world
>>587348350I've come to a point in my life where that exact thing makes a character more physically attractive to me. Like, yeah, Wilhelmina's hot, but Ulrika and Eir turn me the FUCK on.
Where can I find a ton of bone piles? I finally got some bnuy rings and I want to test them out.
>>587348257Indeed. From DD1 and DD2 she feels like the love interest that the player is really pushed toward. It's also kind of cool that if your player character was not there she could have very well been the Arisen. She also goes on about will and leadership and all that.
>>587348386>Only works for charged melee attacks... shit, now I'm going to have to find new gear for my thief pawn
>>587348251Absolute chad that handled the Monado through sheer force of will and determination
I wonder if I could get a third follower somehow hmm
>>587346103>>587346247Yeah who knows why DD2 made the decisions it did. I just hope if we ever get DD3 (haha) it doesn't streamline things even further. Some of the main gripes I have with this game are a direct result of streamlining existing systems. Not necessarily bad, but woefully inferior.
>damage numbers mod>testing things>giga vim supposedly drops magic damage by 20%>actually drops it by 68%There's some fuckery going on here isn't there?
is this good for a sorc pawn
>>587348760And yet they went the opposite direction for NG+ by making it remove your custom teleport points. And I think on launch there were fewer built-in ones (like in Vernworth), but I'm not certain.So I installed a mod that lets me use campfires and riftstones as fast travel points.
>>587345521Most likely sony, they have a weird thing with cross platform play, took forever for helldivers 2 to get it.>>587345596I doubt nintendo would be against it since they allowed cross play with xbox for certain games like fortnite without any trouble
>>587349041Maelstrom does fuckall in Norgan
>>587348929The multiplier happens before the att-def damage calc. So if you have 1500 ATT vs. 1000 DEF you usually do 500 damageWith gigvim you would expect it to be 500*.8=400 damageBut with the multiplier happening first its 1500*.8 - 1000 = 200 damage
>>587349140but it looks cool
>>587315129>DD:DA2>PC>Clarisa>Lvl 388>Archer, Calm, Orienteer>NTAXTYJA4B2VExplosive Arrow for 33 Dynamic Sanctuary Grimoires (Celestial Paean books)>Erika>Lvl 49>Straightforward>Currently a Fighter>4S7RT3I6GOBS>Cyclops for 5 allheals
>>587349196Based on that: battle frienzy happens AFTER defense is calculated then, because it was successfully tripling the final number.
>>587347710lol thank you, she does have all the aggro stuff on her (ring, helm, and augment) so she'll definitely be protecting everyone she can
Does Numbing Embrace actually exist? Because I gave myself the lv2 version when testing shit, and it has a name, but I now have a feeling it's not supposed to be a thing.
>>587349527Never heard of that, what is it?
>>587349653Okay I guess not. New maisters have unused lv2 versions with unique names, apparently. They don't really do anything, of course.
>>587338491Appreciated! Neat little screenshot collage too
>>587349419Yup, then you can combine that with predominance rings that boost strength before defense reduction. I've got my thief using just BF1 with 2 of the rings for a much comfier playstyle where they don't die from touching a satan tornado or dragon ghoulgoop.
>zap, muthafucka
>>587320934Yooooo welcome back
>>587349935So, realistically: frienzy is kinda shit vs anything with real defenses and already overkill vs anything without.
>>587347794One of the male Kindhearted voices is by Shulk's voice actor.

>>587350602You might have DC'd and then the moniker showed up.
>>587350636There's a setting in the Options menu where you can tell pawns to keep their grubby mitts out of your backpack.
>>587348757Maybe if you run into one of those npcs escort requests on the road.Can I try draw something non-revealing but kinda sexy of Guy's arisen or would that be weird for you
>>587350817oh sweet lol thats cool
>>587315129PCGilLevel 258SorcDA7F2WCE50FACamp in Norgan for 5 allheal. Has the chilling embrace skill on, please let me know if he's using it well or not.
>>587350197Uhh kinda? It'll still boost whatever damage you're doing, but I guess if you're exclusively choosing between battle frenzy or a good strength boost like predominance then the difference might not be as big as the BF percentages make it seem. But together they go crazy
>>587350383I hate them so fucking much, worse than any variant of goblin put together.
Do any of you play without a curative mage in your party? I've tried two sorcs and a warrior and it doesn't seem very effective.
>>587320127Jonas sisters...
>>587351383When I have a mageless party, I end up switching to wayfarer to just have a way of healing
>>587351383If you play MA you have the heal+revive arrow skillif you play Warfarer you can just throw on a staff and swap to it to use anodyne or argent whenever someone needs healing
>>587351234I mean: if your choices are 2x predominance for 4x BASE vs 2x inversion and BF15^ for 4x final: 10 times out of 10 you'll get more damage out if 2x predominance rings as well as more durability.
>>587351623If you can stay full HP, yeah. Formless feint makes thief pawns the goat for it, I also got my archer with spectral feint+ and aggressive recovery to make it easier to claw back to 100% hp
>>587352001>>587351623>>587351234So what I'm hearing is that sorcerer and magic archer really are cucked in Norgan since everything has a bunch of magic defense and there's no predominance equivalent to magic.This is ofcourse with the single exception if harmonic pentad since everything in norgan is weak to holy and holy ignores a big chunk of their defense.

>>587352158She LOVES to suck red satan's dick rather than actually fighting him.I still keep her around due to the ass, but you really should make her simple since they rarely climb if ever...
>>587351383Try it again with a Chirurgeon pawn. Not as good, but it's something at least
>>587352156Check this out, chiefhttps://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/2458?tab=description
>hire pawn with kill cyclops quest>suddenly cyclops don't exist in my world
>>587352251Yeah it's basically a lottery, 50/50 chance she attacks (sometimes not even using a skill, just Mighty Sweep) or trolls. It's either Simple or Calm. Is calm bad for Warrior?
>>587343243>AphoniteYeah so what's up with that? I logged in after hiring him yesterday, and suddenly he was chattering more than the rest of my party put together and was Orienteer.
>>587352173Aight, glad I checked first. Didn't wanna overstep since you haven't posted them here.
>>587352591Also I haven't figured out what exactly she looks like yet
Thinking of reinstalling or maybe go fashion hunting in DD1DA1 after finishing up Gears e-day campaign. choices.
Love when the game works as intended.
>>587348042>two jagged bones from one arisen>one rugged bone from anotherRugged I get, but I'm not sure what to make of jagged.
Is it just me or did they nerf MA's lock on since DLC dropped? I know rivet is faster than pinpoint but it still feels slower.
>>587352864Beastren barbs
>>587352874Sure feels like that to me too.
>>587352874MA in general seems to have been maliciously singled out for nerfs across the boardSomeone on the DA team really doesn't like MA
>>587352894Didn't think of that, but I just checked and there were no cats involved so it's still a mystery. If anything, my pawn would be the one doing the boning
>>587353225it literally needed the nerf it was doing tier 5 damage at low level in vanilla.
>>587315478Medusa badge done, thanks! I'm taking these two goblins to sniff out some Garms (not Wargs). Room for one more.
>>587352158>>587352251Ok, she's Simple now. Go check how she performs like this.
Have you guys ever tried a just you and your main pawn run? It's pretty fun
I will never not be annoyed at the button for "run away from AoE telegraph" being the same as the button for "accidentally pick up portcrystal and don't notice in all the rush".
>>587354607I disabled running from the circle button. I just press in left stick to run
>>587354509I played DD1 that way a lot; it was easier to cover all needs in that game if you play assassin and have your pawn as a mage. DD2 has warfarer so I guess it's still a thing but I find a full party too comfy not to have.
>>587322435I hired him earlier today but I'm having trouble hunting cyclopses for some reason. I'm going to bed but keeping him on my team for tomorrow's session.

It shall be engraved upon your soul! Nibelung Valesti!
>>587343243If you get a pawn return message that he was dying too much or something, its because we had to fight Death like 3 times. Man was an operator
is the dismemberment mod a meme that rapes your framerate or is it actually alright?
So are travelogues randomized hallucinated pawn nonsense or is it actually correlated to performance in their journey? Or a mix of both, like if someone hired them for 1 min just to trade then dismiss then it makes something up, but in actual longer sessions it's more accurate?I want it to be true... I want my girl to be cool and confident and well-liked...
>>587356346it's alright
>>587356554i keep forgetting to read these. I want to read about my pawns' adventures and performances
>>587356554We just dont know. It could be that it does work or its supposed to work in some ways and then either bugs out with all the network interactions. Or it could just be complete BS the whole way through and its just a completely randomized note. Only the actual dev team can say for sure.
>>587356554It's hallucination. I've tried hiring my own pawn then immediately dismiss after, then saw a complete travelogue like she had the greatest adventure.
>>587346103damn they had a pretty impressive selection of seiyuu
>>587356832Yeah, they did. Also have another batch of seiyuus for the male voices.

Woah thanks for the hires fellas! I don't expect any hires back but I appreciate it a lot when I see them.I've sent back Os and Calandria now, so let's talk about my impressions of these two. The first thing I'll note is that both these girls have a unique look to them. Os has kind of the sexy demonette thing going for her with hidden eyes, and Calandria has a holy valkyrie look to her. I personally think the most important thing in a Pawn is that they have a look and personality that suits the Arisen they follow, so it's nice to see unorthodox looks.Os is a Sorcerer at the time of hire, to my understanding she's spent time as a mage before but right now she's a mage. My experience with Os is that she was very sturdy and hard to stagger out of her spells, which meant that she would succeed more often than not in casting her favorite ones. In my game, that meant she cast Chilling Embrace a lot, and then would march right into enemies with it up and detonate it when she neared the end of her stamina bar. She also liked to cast Grand Hagol and Maelstrom, which while effective; REALLY BLINDED ME A LOT! I had fun with her though, I think sorcerers get a bit of a bad rep but they put in work.Calandria is a Fighter with most of the skills you'd want them to have, as well as Shield Drum. I've said previously I like Fighters to have a bit of aggro generation to them, and the reason for that is that Red vocations have great AoE abilities and counter moves that benefit from high enemy density. Calandria succeeds in that, but I have a few concerns about her overall durability. In my game she was almost always in critical health, and just didn't seem to be able to protect herself very well in large packs even though she was otherwise excellent in all aspects of her role. I think if you find a way to make her more durable, she'd probably be among the best here.
Welp, there is an Assassion mod for this game nowhttps://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/2529
>>587362124Thank you Azalea anon. /ddg/ is blessed to have you
>>587361997You faggots literally complain about the most inane shitDark Arisen 2 repeats basically all the issues base DD2 had outside of the story and made some of them worse
I'm getting destroyed by the character limit these days. To elaborate a little bit more about Calandria because I feel like it sounds like I was overly negative; Calandria does deal a lot of damage with her attacks and that can't be understated. The Holy Enchantment on both her Sword and Shield probably contributes to it, and even without Battle Frenzy she does chunk pretty much anything she hits; AND doesn't do a whole lot of climbing (which for pawns is a big waste of time) so she's pretty consistently doing that damage. Like I said, her only flaw is that she's a bit fragile.>>587360620Oh.... Well, thanks for letting me know. I don't know if I like some of the subject matter there, but it isn't my place to command an anon to do anything. Wouldn't quite be in the spirit of this place, right?>>587361406I think fondly of all of you I've interacted with so far.
>>587362462what did it make worse?
>>587315129A0P1BEQDSRZSWe just finished DLC and started it's endgame glad to see this general back on /vg/
>>587362702Neat card
>>587361093DELETE THIS
>>587362157As someone who enjoys immersive interactables and keeps it installed at all times i think claude tranny is going too farLike, what does this new mod add? Removing NPCs from your game for 10k gold and to prove that quest triggers work? Is there actually any challenge or cool gimmicks to the assassin level design, guard perceptions, witnesses, or is it all just randomized slop for the sake of it? Seems like the latter. And reading the entire mod description written in AI as well in its hackneyed AI form trying to make pithy one-liners is depressing and dystopian.
>>587362702>19x savageries for a snowfootdon't mind if i do...
>>587362969To me it's just... I'm not bricking my save for any of this shit. Maybe it calms down at some point and something good floats on top. When I read descriptions that say "If something breaks I don't know how to fix it", I don't want that on my PC.
Jesus fuck, the super Satan fight is fucking miserable for any kind of caster, he just spams AoEs nonstop at you, regardless of any aggro management from your red vocation pawns.
>>587363290Fair point, but the way REngine modding and these super-nested and compressed 700kb savefiles work and how mods almost never write to save makes it pretty safe and resilient, I think the only major fuckup you or AI can do are vocation mods
Is the new Norgen fashion good?
>>587363359Yeah that's why I play Warfarer with a censer for him when I play Sorc, just to get some aggro off me.
>>587363387Perchance
>>587363359And if you get caught by one, you're going to be sitting there for 10+ seconds getting ragdolled all over the place while you're getting hit by every followup with no ability to avoid it.
>>587362702nice card
>someone always insists itt how redvoc straightforward is the worst with climbing issues >meanwhile kindhearted mage doing her best dingleberry impression I think they got the root of this issue completely wrong. It seems to me that at a certain point in a fight game sends command to pawns in the area to start climbing and whoever was in range gets hit with it and starts their retard time exercise, so obviously straightforward who is there 99% of the time is most likely to get affected. Because after my melee pawn got up and joined us she started hitting demon ass instead of climbing while mage was sniffing ass forever.I also witnessed multiple times how 2 melee pawns of different inclinations start climbing simultaneously.
This time we'll be working through some return hires. I have Amazon and Cheryl here for now, isn't it funny that Cheryl has those really puffed up cheeks as though she doesn't want to be here? We'll see if this pair fares well in the Rancorous Vortexes of Norgan.... Probably tomorrow! I'm exhausted after work and I might turn in early.>>587362453I love Dragon's Dogma! I've purchased the first game maybe five times alone. I used to frequent the threads a good number of years ago but phased out when life got really busy for me. I'm glad you guys are here, and don't let any of the cagey anon behavior get the better of any of you guys.>>587362157I don't use any mods myself but it's interesting what people have been creating lately since AI has opened the doors for them. I do wonder what the limits will end up being to all of this, or if the game will lose its audience before we're able to touch on them.>>587363359Yeaaaah, it isn't ideal at all I think casters would've benefited a lot from some kind of dome shield spell to ward off attacks while they cast. DD1's casters had the whole Focus Bolt thing going for them to at least remain mobile. I guess you could Warfarer and use the Spearhand dome or something?>>587362702Oh that's a cool card, did you enjoy the DLC?
>>587363527Some attacks you can caster shield through. Like the one where he teleports to like a crouching stance and pokes you with his finger or whatever then does the follow up blast. If the first attack only flinches you instead of ragdolls, you can shield the guaranteed ragdoll blast.
>>587363835And if you're MA you can just get fucked
>>587363694Does the kindhearted have attack spells?
>>587363796blowing raspberries on Cheryls tummy
>>587363694They really messed up with that "I'll boost you up!" thing
I need to come up with some kind of theme for my thief pawn.No, "scantily clad ho" is not an option.

>>587362830>>587363139>>587363680Thanks! I appreciate the hires.>>587363796Quite a lot, I wish I had started it sooner but I was testing hard mode on a new save. The Lost Rites really set my hopes up.How do you all prefer to deal with healing? dedicated healer or through items? Having a mage felt mandatory with my playstyle and all the debuffs on the DLC
>>587364292Yeah mages are mandatory for me too
>>587364128So bolt only. I swear if you have a staggering spell on top like Levin kindhearted will not climb. They do still wrassle smaller enemies if they're staggered and close enough thoughbeit.
>>587364058Check out edgy hoods and go from there
>>587364292If you're playing a sorcerer, palladium gives you 3 free hits before you're interrupted. Any other class really has no use for a mage. Especially when healing is concerned.
>>587364058Try a bit dressed ho
>>587364292I keep a mage because I want my fighter thief cleric
>>587364058Maybe make it look like something from Bloodborne?
>>587364006I have to inform my master of this tactic
>>587364058Grab stuff from Bakkbattahl for a desert thief kind of vibe.
This sword is crazy, I haven't really been using BF weapons and just stuck with Eir's sword and shield since I got it but this is just grossly overpowered.How do you even balance a game when players could be doing anything from 0 to 300% extra damage over baseline depending on their rolls?
>>587364058shredder
>>587362124Thanks for the review of Calandria, Arisen. I'm trying to tweak her survivability skills a little as I have noticed the same thing. It's probably what I get for not running rings of inversion on her but I don't wanna.
>>587365178>How do you even balance>>ring of reversal exists What balance?
>>587365178300% is arguably very modest compared to the damage scaling in other games.
i was about to embark on a droll little garm hunt in the exposed sea trenches by battahl then i came upon this specimenis this achievable natty (as in, unmodded sliders)i never installed ece or any slider expander stuff, how is this possible
>>587365295just gotta crank those lower body and upper body sizes up
>>587365261Yeah I hate that shit to be honest, but they must care to some extent about balance since they nerfed a bunch of skills in updated just prior to DLC. Which seems pointless in hindsight.>>587365276This is from 1 single roll on the item though.

>>587366426Every day the temptation to install and learn2emote dogma grows
>>587365759When I get back on the game tomorrow I'll take a look and see if her build looks silly and take it into account while writing the performance report. If it does look like a kind of funny farming build, I'll try and hire her again in the near future with your real build so I can give her a more accurate assessment.I also want to extend a hand to everyone else, if I've already written about you before but you've changed stuff up and want me to take another look I'm absolutely happy to do so. I don't profess to be some kind of all-knowing authority on these games but I hope it's nice to know some faceless person is thinking about you in some way.
>>587366564I don't use mods I'm too scared of bricking my save or something kek. And I feel like an emote mod would take the fun out of it somewhat although the current animation set is severely lacking...

>>587368062Nothing a greenwarish cant fix.
>>587368183nope
>>587368286damn, I gotta try out more things with these mods. Bloody Dogma has the best blood by far in my opion, but I also would like some gore too.
Decided to go more with the original vision of the character. I just wish there were stuff with a vest like this but an actual top underneath.Also, what the heck kind of cape/cloak/shawl would fit with this outfit?She looks way too cold to be in Norgan with this outfit, my aughtism dictates I have to find something that fits better for the climate.
>>587368363I was using Bloody Dogma too, but then one of the newer versions gave my game some really nasty micro stutter, and that's when I decided to use this mod instead. Mind you, I am using a R9 7950x3D. The better looking blood is really not worth it for these kind of stutters. And yes, it definitely was that mod.
>>587368475>spoilerI’m at peace with it now, as my girl's armor rolled out Ice Elemental and her thermal value was set to 100. It's magic, ain't gotta explain shit lmao. Sandals it is.

>>587371343First thing I turned off.
>>587371113>>587371343It's not that it's darker, everything just looks more... washed out. Less colourful.
So Trickster is just setting up weird """traps""" that enemies mostly ignore and hoping your pawns can manage without you doing anything but standing there in slutty robes?
>>587371571that and spraying liquid PCP into the air to make them hit the enemy harder
>>587371571>hoping your pawns can manage without you doing anythingIf Warrior can do it...
>>587371571Also yeeting a ghostly duplicate of yourself at bosses to make both your pawns and any adds go berserk trying to attack it.
>>587364058But that's the only reason to hire them..
>>587371956Any pawn, or just thief ones?
>>587371571You can also make all the enemies target one monsters
>>587371571No, you're supposed to draw aggro with your simulacrum, use the skill that buffs your pawns and makes them more aggressive, and hope they kill everything. The skill that creates fake ground is also very useful for knocking enemies down. You should also throw your simulacrum at enemies sometimes to make them fight each other.
>>587372020Just thief.
I can't figure out good pants for brunhilda's embrace
>>587372083All that work for a measly griffin.
>>587371549Try using the filters?
>>587372298norgan griffin*
>>587372394Why are you hanging out on Wilhemina's balco-- actually you know what, don't answer that.
>>587372083I never tried it, but trickster vs those monsters in unmoored that have specific weakspots (That my pawns never hit) have to be complete aids to fight as trickster right? Or does playing trickster and using the buff give pawns increased IQ?
>>587372515For the view!
>>587371549I usually turn vignette off for most pictures and bump the brightness up 1 or 2 ticks on the bar sometimes more as it can get very dark...also the "dark" Filter actually adds nice saturation to the images around 20-50% usually.
>>587372172Braided boots because straps + straps, but its a very 'starter pack' combination. Blessed waistcloth is the other choice, also pretty bog standard.
>>587372083IMO the buff makes pawns even more retarded, but sometimes that's actually pretty useful because of the increased aggression. I honestly couldn't play pure Trickster for very long, though. I ended up combining it with MA and Thief on Warfarer.
>>587373021I like both of those too. It's bit of a contradiction but I want the very skimpy ones to have some armor pieces too.
>all these face twenty-threes
>>587373874I get what you mean, sometimes the contrast is nice. I tried Conquerer's Sabatons for a bit in base game, armored lower body, exposed upper body sorta thing. Also early in the DLC there was one of the Beorcan pants that sort of went well, can't remember the name but it also had straps but was fully covered.
>face 23>goonslop>wahhh AI badThe curse of /vg/
>>587374294oh yeah we think alike. I also sometimes do like half armored either bottom or top. And funnily enough I just had the beorcan battle-gaiters paired with the brunhilda top.
>>587374349How are you posting, haven't you mailed all your RAM to Altman
>>587373986It's just the best one by a wide margin.
Cheryl decided to just explode after a high-five. There weren't enemies nearby
For me it's wearing a complete set.No need to fuss with matching pieces.
>>587373986My Arisen is 23, but my main pawn, the one other people see, isn't.
>>587373986Let's see Paul Allen's pawn.

>>587374985sometimes that is good too
Do pawns need the special arrows in the pockets to use the skills?
>>587375337yes
>>587350636I mean they give you the same buff and don't spoil, the only difference is the recovery stat.

>>587367031This is bullshit, my pawns don't brine themselves.
>>587376304It's just a few retards that slipped in during the DLC that parrot whatever contrarion opinion they see. My pawn is face 17, never knew about the face 23 meta when I made her and still don't care now.
>>587366950The only mods that get you banned are the ones that create impossible scenarios for your Pawn and they fail the server check. Like equipping weapons or armor that aren't meant for that vocation having impossible stats. Just don't use any mods that alter stats and you'll be fine
>>587362462Fags just want to shit on Itsuno. But yeah, it was funny how DA2 made people who where bitching about DD2 change their tune even with the expansion just being more of the same but with relics that repeat themselves constantly. At the end of the day we all just wanted more content and we got it. Thank GODsuno for making both DD1 and DD2 even with all the retarded bullshit Capcom put him through. I just hope Kinoshita doesn't drop the ball in the sequel. It is one thing to make an expansion, but a new game is a whole neal deal. Let's see if he will be able to tank Capcom's shit.

>>587377416She look meaty... nice skills, how did you get full thermal? I'm going to hire her.
>>587377449Kek, no worries.
>>587377608Full thermal is like the least useful of all honestly, it comes from ice elemental on legs, I simply can't get better pants.Have fun.
>>587377932Oh, from ice elemental, thanks. It's nice to have early on, that way their stamina doesn't drain while exploring the snowfield. And you don't have to constantly use heatstone although they are a non issue.
I was just getting a big amount of stamina restored using seching flete with ring of enervation and I don't know why. I reequipped the ring and fought another enemy and it stopped doing it

I've been noticing my stamina isn't dropping much, I thought it was cause I was doing battaile lich instead of wild furie but seching flete randomly keeps deciding to refund insane stamina.Or some videcoded mod somehow caused this
>>587378906Each hit of flete on each target counts as the "first hit" innthe base game for some reason.There's some other inconsistencies like battld frienzy applying to post-defense damage but precipience, ice elemental, and riotous magic applying to the base.
>>587379626please do not show me that at this point in time
>>587379626Do you have the sloppa of him doing the salute?
>>587379626He's so handsome...
What do elemental enchantments on relic weapons actually do?Is it extra damage?Does it just count as the element for resistence checks?Why the fuck does greatsword show 200%?
Avid sorcerer enjoyer speaking, end game and effective caster are as follows>battle frenzy 2 is manageable if the pawn has atleast 2 health boost 3>grand seism is very effective it should be on every sorcerer >frigor deals decent stagger and is quick put that shit on your sorcerer>salamander is good for arisens its an effectively dead spell on pawns>HIGH LEVIN>chilling embrace with 1900 magik will chunk a lifebar off satan >enhanced burst+ will stagger satan in 5 shots with only 320 knockdown powerIm going to test ice elemental with a ice enchanted lvl 5 weapon using chilling embrace and see how it compares to battle frenzy.
>>587381753>best mystic knight skill became a staple sorcerer skillmystic knight chads still winning
>>587381697Extra damage, mostly. So enemies are just weak to a particular element.
goddamn fiend tramplers and a fat ass work well together
>>587321839The fact that lost rites are repeatable means that getting some of those pesky badges is a lot easier, at leas the sphinx one is totally doable now. I would put a quest for the lesser dragon one.
>>587381753It'll beat battle frienzy in most cases since that 2x is on the base damage before defense and frienzy applies after defense, and most norgan enemies have very high magic defense.
What maister skills are actually worth using on Warfarer with mods?Just Chilling and Pentad?
>>587383534Heavenly shot.
Now that I have all badges, I'm wondering what should I have as a meme quest? ponderous bone for meat? seeders tooken for slime?
>>587383693Heavenly shot is shit unless you're doing the 1-shot stamina meme, and running Vim on warfarer is a terrible idea if you plan on doing any non-phys damage.
>>587383869Heavenly shot is shit unless you have giga vim. That shit can onetab most things without going full meme but if you want to be a caster that's a different story.
>every base class got amazingly cool new maister skills>warfarer is still just an augural bot, which also got nerfedlollmaoroflmao, even
>>587376974Words worth hearing
>>587381697If you believe dataminers, Elemental enchantments are +17% bonus elemental damage (+/- resistances), this includes the elemental boon spells. This gets added on top of your standard damage calculation, so on a physical weapon its still part of the Strength-Def, Magick and MDef don't matter. Spearhand has both physical and magical attacks, and Staves use Magick. The elemental % on weapons, is the elemental debilitation bonus modifier. The build up for Set Ablaze for Fire, Unconscious for Lightning, Freeze for Ice. Does nothing for Holy. Both these effects also apply to Spells of the same elemental type for Staves.
>>587320994Thanks for the add, I hired Dorothea briefly last night and she did very well but I didn't play for too long. I'm not used to springboard pawns and got thrown off a few times when I unexpectedly launched into the air but once I knew to expect it, it was actually pretty useful and fun. Will hire again and hopefully have a more substantial adventure & souvenir pic next time I pop on.
I'm scared.
>>587377416That voice just doesn't match her man, maybe I'm just used to my own pawn having it, lol. She looks a lot more gentle than she sounds.
>>587384486So a T5 greatsword with fire will do 17% higher base strength damage assuming the target isn't resistent or immune to fire?Given how defense works and how much defense shit has in Norgan that's probably stronger that getting an up arrow on battle frienzy 4 assuming you aren't running a mage with enchants.
>>587384486>Both these effects also apply to Spells of the same elemental type for Staves.Oh fug, so if I want to freeze shit I should get an ice staff? Makes sense I suppose.
>>587385036you better be
>>587385036If the sloppa anon were still around, I'm sure he'd make her get molested by tentacles.
dawg
Is the treatise of generosity one of those permanent buff books?
>>587385578Arisen "specializations" are just augments.
>>587379527Thank you anon! DD is just so fun and easy to fuck around with and take pics it's like no other. I will probably postchim on the anchor with Ludo on the next thread, sry about the wait lel... He won't be leveling very fast or anything he's not from a regular playthrough kek
>only flare, ice, and holy magic can keep up with strength in norgan due to relic skills, rings, and enemy weaknesses>warfarer is trash without mods since the maister skills are 90% of power on most classes now>even on hard mode in NG++++ the base game is invalidated without enemy spawn and difficulty modsWhat did Crapcom mean by this!?Playing on PS5 must be absolute suffering...
>>587385861>playing on consolesOOOOOOOOOOOOFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF....
>>587385578>>587385681That wording confused the shit out of me, when I saw "Arisen-only specialization" I thought it was some new mechanic in the DLC and thought that, like pawn specializations, I would only be able to have one active.
>>587385113She's obviously supposed to be dragon's crown amazon cosplay, you should go see how she sounds in japanese where she's voiced by Atsuko Tanaka.If anything she doesn't sound rough enough for me here lol.
You're now aware that frigor, chilling embrace (the pop, not the Aura), and arctic bolt are physical instead of magic damage and can damage golem coins.
>>587383097Cake!

She's really started to learn how to use the new maister skill, even if she's slow on the uptake.
>>587386790The way I see it, pawns have the ability but not the drive. They're not going to do shit to her unless she specifically asks them to.
Is there a riftstone for pawns that have unusual coloured skin (dyes)?
>>587386790>the tiny kot was the arisen and not the pawnWhat a twist!
>>587368475Code?
>>587386790It's funny to think about how canonically these pawns are created by other Arisens and travel the rift while their master is asleep (and I guess parallel universe time shenanigans allow them to return by the time their master wakes up, regardless of how long their adventure actually was.)Imagine resting and your pawn is like "yeah so I just spent six months in another world doing hard slave labor while being mind controlled until eventually exhaustion took over and my body gave out and I faded back into the rift. Well I'm back now, how did you sleep master?"
Has anyone used one of those fuckass rope gondolas and NOT had it destroyed by a griffin? I swear the thing spawns one in specifically as a fuck you the moment you're over instant death height
>>587318440STOP HALIDOMING AND CAST THE FUCKING DEIFIC BOLT
>>587387809I hope the parallel universe shenanigans are a thing because it's really sad to imagine a pawn being unable to return.
>>587387876Most times they're safe for me, yeah. I usually get harpies, not griffins
>>587387876I have but tis as you say, more often than not it does seem like the game will spawn a Griffin or maybe redirects any nearby Griffin to fuck your shit up when you get on one of those
>>587387876It's better to only use the gondolas before you've gotten your griffin badge since that's the only reliable way for the game to avoid spawning griffins
>>587387876Just kill the Battahl Griffin and the game can't do shit.
>>587386060It basically makes curatives heal for A LOT more, it's good and it's permanent, I wasn't sure what it did.
>>587388179Maybe I'll look into it, I've just been running the Standard Seven™ augments on both my pawn and Arisen so haven't really given those new Arisen-only augments a fair shake yet.
>>587350820nta but this sounds like it would have been innocuous and you were just erring on the side of caution, anyway post your art so I can give you some (You)s
>>587388354I just used the book and things seems to just heal for a lot more, I didn't equipped shit. unless I'm dumb and it's some placebo.
>>587388510I think using the books just unlocks the augment, you still have to equip it at a vocation guild to actually get the benefit. You might be getting placebo'd
>>587388602Lol, I guess I'll double check.
Skeleton army...
>Kill enhanced satan 6 times>Get mostly trash rollI fucking hate this system so much. Also can someone repost the required kills for each ring upgrade?
>>587388935
>>587389186Thank you very much.
>>587387541My pawn is ALSO a tiny kot though!
>>587389494Kino.
>>587339702Just run GigaVim, 1x Inversion, 1x Predominance rings.Then get a weapon with Battle Frenzy of any level you like and Aggressive Recovery so you can recover from taking a big hit and maintain Predominance.Not as much damage as going 2x Predominance and BF4+ but honestly that shit ends fights too fast for them to be enjoyable.Downside: GigaVim hard-cucks Mystic Spearhand and anyone trying to use an enchanted/elemental weapon. We're talking 60%-100% magickal DPS component loss. It only truly works for Archer, Fighter, Warrior, and Thief, as long as they use non-elemental weapons.
>>587386790Literally begging for it.
>>587339970>Wait, does he not have his own dedicated quest?>(・ω・`)He's a part of the Fimbl quest
>>587348228
>>587390204Still would
>>587339970I love how Japanese people talk so much
>>587389186I need 33 more for the last one? Fuck off not-kino shitter
>>587390675I have currently 33 kills, with normal Satan mixed in so I probably will need more than 59 at least once I get the ring of glut I will know how many more times do I have to kill it.
>>587390204She might get a slight tan given enough time fishing in Harve, but not quite like that.
Why do these elves I met yesterday keep asking for escorts? First the king's being all blushy, then his son shows up at my house the same way. At least I learned ferrystones and oxcarts work for escort quests thanks to them, I guess>>587357239The 9999 RC glasses aren't too bad, I had the same issue with those gold frame ones. They've only got frames on the bottom though
>>587389829I play as an MA.
>>587390675We remove adventure and replace with bossfight grinding because nippon prayer say friction bad. Did you rike it?
I guess that took like 35+ minutes but I did not become The Raped today.
>>587390675To be fair you don't really need the super ring, you don't really need to grind for all that autistic stuff and perfect LV5 gear, if you've already beat Giga Satan-sama once you can consider the game "done", that stuff is for autists like me.
>>587391179Best thing about the super satan ring is all the meat you get from killing animals. Also I capped out on WLC when going for my lesser dragon badge and now have to sell those off
>>587388510There is a helmet skill that makes curatives heal a lot more, you may have been wearing that.
>>587391053Congrats.
>>587388440Yeah maybe I worded it too carefully, in my mind I was going for something with 'ara ara' vibes but I'll hold off.Don't really have anything new atm but I'll try to doodle some pawns during the weekend.
Im getting this fucking enhanced satan clear and then never fighting him again. Jesus what a stupid fight.
>>587391053How is did that take 35 minutes...?
>>587387876Step 1. Get on gondola with pawnStep 2. Start turning the gondola crank with arisenStep 3. Swap with your pawn, and wait until they start turning the crankStep 4. Talk to your pawn while they are turning the crank, but do not select any dialogue options and let them continue turning the crankStep 5. Grab a sandwich while the gondola auto travels and enemies don't aggro because game mechanicsStep 6. You have arrived at your destination
>>587391053>mde reference>obvious agp Interesting...
>>587391696I might, I pretty much grabbed anything with gigavim.
>>587315478oh fug her quest isn't golem anymoreGot her a kill anyway
>>587391053>35+ minutesFights like that are often the best, reminds of fighting that damn Drake in the forest in the first game, took so long but it was worth it.>>587391483Looting anything and seeing notification spam is quite funny and enemies that directly drop stuff on the ground turn into pinatas with that ring.
So if you have carnivor, adventurous appetite and gigavim does that mean that heavenly shot can do infinite damage? or at least take advantage or rotten mean.. for more vim than roborants.
>>587391916Because I all I have is Lost rites and Tier 1 Norgan gear. My pawns must all have dragon-aids or they are terribly coded for this fight, they kept throwing the eye balls in the wrong direction! And my """tank""" was dying on repeat... Meanwhile my sorc died like twice so idk if they just have lots more magic def or what the deal is there.
>>587392331What's the reference?
>>587392632It sounds like you went to that fight ill prepared and with a weak party.
I'm seeing the recolors of the preorder set in item search engine.What happens if I add them?
I hate how sleeping at an inn doesn't give you any meal buffs. Fuck me, 2k and the greedy innkeeper doesn't even throw in a meal? Also, you can eat and then sleep at a campsite and keep your buffs, but if you pay for an inn, you lose them. Why?
>people experiencing their first evil eye kill>meanwhile I'm hyper-optimizing my modded warfarer build on NG++++ and trying to find a mod that increases enemy spawn counts into whole armies without doing a bunch of jank claude shit that the author doesn't understandI kinda want to go back.
>>587392436Lmao I love you anon, hope I can hire you back soon and finish your quest
>>587392931Sort of, I don't want it to be too easy with powerful DLC gear anyway.
>>587393323Yeah but that doesn't mean you should fight things with shit tier gear.
>>587392864Who rapes The Raped?
>>587393453The problem was more that he was shielded for 90% of the time fighting him. Probably the biggest issue was that I didn't have any "stun" skill equipped so I only got him staggered once.
>>587393675Of course.. that why you have to deal with the tentacles first so the shield goes down and you can blow his fucking head off.
I noticed my shieldless fighter pawn sometimes just runs around bosses without attacking. Switching to a shield helped her attack more, but now she stands around awkwardly using Shield Counter away from the action. I remember some anon here using a shieldless fighter successfully - are you still around? I want to figure out whats wrong with mine. I should try Calm inclination instead of Simple. But maybe there is more to it?
Do gigasatan kills from regular portals count toward upgrading the ring or do I specifically have to initiate the fight by jumping off that cliff into his arena? I've killed him twice through the regular rancor portals but the only time the ring upgraded was from the kill after jumping off the cliff. Also, how the fuck do you avoid the tornado and missile spam? I try running away but always get killed by the missiles, I can't seem to avoid them. Is it because I'm at average weight and I'm too slow? Or are you just supposed to block and spam stamina potions?
>>587393801They regenerate >:(
>>587393173Literally just don't use Battle Frienzy or Predominance rings.Hard is fine in the base game without using those.
>>587390204>What if Ulrika fused with Quina?
>>587393886>how the fuck do you avoid the tornado and missile spam?Run at an angle. Like, forward and to the side.
>>587390878She's not even that much darker skinned, it just looks that way because of the creepy pale eyes.
>>587386559Good to know
>>587393886Sprint on and off and run around in circles always works for me
>>587393675>>587393801You can throw smol eyeballs at him when they activate their shield to break it.
>>587394150>>587394521OK, I'll try that later. Thanks.
>>587394640HE STOPS SPAWNING THOSE AFTER 20 MINUTES, SIR. He spawns 2 (maybe 3) sets of them then they never spawn again during the fight.
>>587393886Look at Satan when he fires them, then start running left/right. Then turn towards Satan as they get closing and keep turning in the same direction until you've avoided all of them.
>>587392436>>587393198Also I have no idea why these badges are getting done so fast suddenly (thanks cutiepies), but the current one is garm gutter if you missed that. Could you tell which pawn is yours so I can prioritise the rehire lol
>>587394074This.Hard mode is balanced for stat-capped characters in T4 relic gear according to an interview with capcom.If you're having too easy of a time: stop using your T5 max rolled Battle Frienzy IV ^ weapons.Use a nice comfy T4 with holy or base T5 with an element and 4 skills.Stop using vim ^ + 2 inversion.You've minmaxed your own fun away to kill satan a bit faster, and you can put that shit away until you're farming Satan again if you ever do.
>>587376824The head 23 things has been around since the last time /ddg/ went stale. Stop pretending you aren't new.
Is it normal to use a lot of basic attack as a thief?
>>587393807Straightforward is a better inclination than Calm if your intention is to have the Pawn be really active, but Simple is a good middleground already. What you're going to want to do is to make sure your sword has a high damage number and keep her skill options full. One thing I could suggest you try is giving her the Arcanist specialization and a few books since they'll probably choose to cast rather than stand there, which isn't IDEAL but pressing buttons is better than pressing nothing.>>587393886Gigasatan does count towards the ring and if I'm light I just sprint perpendicular to Satan's position and keep sprinting. Since you're heavier than that, what you want to do is wait to see where the tornados spawn and sprint towards Satan and to his right, that way you'll avoid the tornados and most likely the missiles.
>>587395326Straightforward breaks when you get badges and ends up with them just climbing the mob and sucking his dick instead of fighting.Simple is the best melee inclination currently.More aggressive than Calm, but not climb-cucked.
If your pawn ain't face 23 I ain't hirin'

>>587395513What if she's a beastren!?
I hire all my /ddg/ bros :)
>>587394014You keep cutting them...
Warfarer Tip of the day:Blazefang Arrow will hyper-stack every Augural Flare on the mob nearly instantly, and if you quick-fire it: it homes in fire-and-forget style.
>>587395903They shall be judged by the color of their fur. Leopard / Cheeta colors? Yup, that's face 23 I'm afraid.
>>587393886It does not matter whether you initiate the Satan fight by jumping in the pit or chasing him through a portal, it's the same. All that counts is whether he's blue or red, and that you have the ring equipped when someone lands the killing blow.His attacks are all avoidable by sprinting in a curve.
>>587394640That comes later.
>>587396195What if she's a snep or a white lion!?
>>587396110I did... SO many times.
>>587396312What the hell is a snep
>>587396195My pawn is a lioness though
>>587396312Sovl.
>>587396331I meant cut them dead not stroke them.
>>587396426If I cannot imagine your character in this gif, it is not a lion
>>587396383A snow leopard.
Why do people keep making female beastren without massive tits? Do you seriously think I'm hiring a flat cat?
>>587395326Sounds interesting, i should try this. By the way, i cant seem to find the Arcanist specialization, i was only able to turn my pawn into a cook using ducats tho
>>587396730I didn't though...Only fat cat tats here...
>>587395732Yup, that's a case of terminal face 23. Nothing we can do to save them, Sorry.
>>587391795I want to draw some ddg pawns too but I'm rusty, can you pick three for me from the current anchor so I have something to practice with? That way I can blame you for my human slop(Looking forward to seeing yours too)
>>587396634What did old boy do!?
can you do torpedo tits in the extended character creator? can you do huge saggers in the extended character creator?
>>587396953Encroach on their territory, probably. Lions frequently kill other lions' cubs so they can attempt to mate with the lionesses and have their own offspring, but lionesses get REALLY protective.
>>587396634How about now
>>587397250Sorry, all I see is this
>>587397031You can get torpedoes in the base game with brunhildr's top at maxed out tits.
>>587395470I have noticed a little bit of that but it wasn't super duper consistent? Some pawns seemed to love grappling and others don't. I DO notice that when one pawn climbs, another will try their luck as well though. It's... weird? I'll try to hire just Straightforward pawns when I'm done with the two ddg guys I have and experiment.>>587396756Normally you get it from beating the DLC but you can ask someone for the tome as a gift, I think they can be duplicated by IF YOU THINK ME A LIAR.
>>587397250She needs a more angular head and more of a muzzle. Try this as a guide.
>>587365958>want exactly this>shoulder to hip ratio gets fucked if you go too smallI hate this character creator sometimes.
If they make a 3rd game, separate the fucking nose, eye, and mouth shape from the head shape you fucks. The first game had it right, don't fix what isn't broke. Cause god damn, are all the male faces some willy wonka oompa loompa looking fuckers.

>>587395470It won't be straightforward-exclusive issue no matter how many times you repeat it.Literally every inclination got hit with climbtard virus, I even had kindhearted mages doing it today.

>>587399726I personally like how they look, they are both very unusual gremlins so the silly hat and outfit adds to them.

>>587400106>Of course I messed up the spoilerWho's the real jester now..

I like hearing chatter of different voices so I never hire second straightforward pawn and I've seen them all over the last month.Here explanation >>587363694 All you are doing by promoting simples for other people is making them go retard climbing instead of straightforwards.
>>587399726Yeah, I had to stop using half robe because it got too mainstream...

Stringbean getting some revenge on the belmmys with her new Archer skill!
They really made dragonsplague blatantly obvious, didn't they? I had a hired pawn go from zero symptoms whatsoever to pulsing red eyes, clutching their head and constantly spouting lines about how powerful they felt in one ingame day.
Gagana cock
>>587402134nyokay
>>587356832I saw the names and thought it was just a meme at first. Given how Dragon's Dogma seemed to have been sidelined by Capcom it was hard to believe DDON had such an absurdly impressive lineup.
>>587402232Crush this cock with a rock I must.
>>587402515Yeah. I mean they got Sakamoto for Eir, but she had a handful of lines compared to something like a pawn lines with all the personalities
I imagine it makes pokeyman sounds like "gagaa">>587402554>>587402554>>587402554
>>587398245They need to let us modify everything, this base head system is trash and the male heads are the best proof of that. Like no shit everyone uses face 23 for girls when you don't have to fight it like you do with every male face. The fact that they get a face that just works like that almost makes me wish I made a girl arisen instead of spending 100 hours in the character creator trying to make a dude only to be disappointed with my result.
>>587403986The amount of exaggeration on the asymmetry is just nasty. Most people have eyes at slightly different heights, they're not at completely different levels.
>>587368515Sorry you had that experience m8. This kind of error is very difficult to solve as I don't suffer from it myself. I just released a patch tackling some performance issues and bugs and I sincerely hope it will give people who experienced micro stutters a solution. The part that's causing it is almost certainly the blood stain system for characters - I'm gonna give that some much needed love soon. Until then I can only apologize :c
