Tidal wrath finally clicked! that was so easy, you get such a big window for the enemy to hit. Excellent for dealing with ghouls and large groups of enemies. Warrior is back on the menu.
>>587406093Seriously, it's like a caricature rather than an actual human being. Some of those faces are completely different shapes on either side, for no apparent reason. Just ugly for the sake of being ugly.
>>587406312Maybe everyone we meet has had a stroke
>>587406312yeah it reeks of western game industry influence
>>587402554is there a mod for missable quests? something that tells you like "go here" as a sort of step 0 of the quest, with no spoilers
>>587403986I found it pretty easy to work with cc for dudes but only if you go for a gigachad.
>>587406619Yeah, it called using your brain.
Harmonic Pentad is kinda ridiculous on Death, Fallen Dragon, and Satan. Does it delete the base game this hard, or is it just because they're hyper-weak to holy or someshit?

>>587405935It's the thought that counts. Worst case scenario I'll just rest until the final lost rite respawns.Speaking of, how does resting in Norgan vs. resting in the Unmoored World affect things like passage of time and spawn resets? If I rest in Norgan a bunch will that allow the lost rites to respawn, or do I have to actually burn Unmoored rests for those dungeons to reset?
such a fucking gorgeous game
>>587408020Thanks! She's meant to look vaguely-but-not-really Maori, but I think I erred a bit too Asian. Ah well, it's a fantasy game and ethnicities don't match RL.

>>587408803Shield but no mobility skill?
>>587408803Looks terrible. >Warrior>Not using tidal rageWhat you doing...?
>>587408803Either go full ranged/magic or full melee, mixing and matching like that rarely works well, especially >>587408982 with no mobility to get you in/out.
Trying to take an auraful pic with my dog but everyone can see grammy in her wheelchair in the background...
>>587409358It is what it is
>>587408803>playing warfarer unmoddedUh...
>>587409636'Tis aught 'tis
Can you repeat pawn quests?
>>587409839You have to rehire them.
>>587408803>using warrior without its 300 knockdown res bonusEhh
>>587409839On what end? If it's a pawn you hire, the quest refreshes when the pawn's Arisen rests at an inn, then you can rehire them and do it again(provided they set the same quest again).If it's your pawn, there's nothing stopping you from getting a quest fulfilled then setting the same one again.
>>587409881Remember to give ponderous bone and a heart
im eagerly awaiting goonslop anon's next masterpiece
>>587409839After finishing a pawn's quest, you have to wait until their arisen refreshes their pawn in order to do it again.
>>587409881>>587409983>>587410031Ok, thanks.
>sacrifice markWhat did Kinoshit mean by that?
>>587409235Having just explosive/blight arrow is a good addition to fighter skills. Plus you get just some general arrow core skills for range, as well. If rearmament wasn't a dedicate skill, 4 melee with 2 arrow for a range type class would be perfect.Also just a general question. I read in another thread that warrior and fighter get nature knockdown bonus but warfarer does not. Is that true?
i'm not into cats, beren
>trying to get a medusa head for the sculptor quest>soporific arrow isn't working, she's apparently become suddenly immune to sleepUh oh
>>587410110>a range type classmeant ranger* type class
>>587405895Let me hire your pawn.
>>587408413I was surprised how good it looked even on steam deck, honestly. Expected it to be a huge mess with the low settings I have on everything, but it's just some lag and blurriness during gameplay.
>>587410083DD has always been Berserk coded. Vanilla DD1 literally had Guts and Griffith armor. The license expired before Dark Arisren 1 however do it got removed. You only kept them if you had the original disc's. PC never officially got them.
>>587410174I use Ring of Derision and then just wail on her until she gets knocked out, a little bit time consuming but guarantees a preserved head every time
>>587410083What headpiece is that?
My Thief has a knockdown ring and a ring of inversion(and gigantus vim^), should I exchange the knockdown for another inversion to make her more durable? She survives very well in my world, but others may have a different experience.
>>587405895you just know that big beorcan is going to destroy that plapmeat
>>587410439wonder if sleep immunity is a hardmode thing or if one of my mods is doing it
Beastren are growing on me.
>>587409839Once their arisen refreshes the quest, yeah. Otherwise they'll remain completed.
>>587410748Future kot...
>>587410341Yeah I know. But it's literally the sacrifice mark. Surprised they can use it if there's no Berserk licensing in place.>>587410518Band of dunscaith from one of the lost rites. >>587410530Not sure you want 2 inversions even on something like meme dodge tank because the whole point is not taking damage.Some damage ring might be preferable as everything in dlc has obscene knockdown levels.
>>587410274Do I trust you with my pawn...?
>>587410610She's not immune to sleep it just takes a lot of arrows. I know because I did it the other day.
myrdin asked for the same books that i was already giving trishawill trisha give them back after i'm done with her, so i can give them to him? i already gave her 2 or 3or are there more copies around?
>>587411156this anon WILL make goonslop (really hot) with your pawn so be warned
>>587411258NoLike 2 of those books have two copies you can give him fakes
>>587411156I already gave you my code...
>>587410748Nevermind... Literally 10 minutes later and the thing is already evil and feral. I knew they couldn't be trusted.
>>587411063>Some damage ringLike one that boosts attack against demons/dragons/something? I understand the ones that boost raw strength are kind of useless.
>>587411258Let's just say there's a certain forgerer guy who can help and when you decide who you give books to, only one of them is an experienced wizard that won't get fucked by fakes.
>>587411487me on the right
>Main pawn and I use our single shared Fighter braincell to simultaneously Vengeful Slash a Dullahan and finish him offKINOOOOOOOOOOO
>>587411556>only one of them is an experienced wizard that won't get fucked by fakesThe other will get fucked worse if you give him the real thing though
>>587411487
>>587411658But we get our maister spell and save the day.
>>587411382>you can give him fakesmmm but i already gave some to her. I met her first. I'll have to check which i gave to her >>587411556i met him too late, i guess i'd have done that if i had met him first
>>587410120Your loss...
>>587411258You can get a second Nation's Death Knell from Tolled to Rest, dunno if that'll help in your case though
such a lustful glance
>>587411258>>587411764You need to do it in a way where you get both the meister skills in a single playthrough. If I recall, you give the old man the forgeries and you want to give the girl at least 3 real ones. But I don't really remember.
>>587411487She's just like me!
>>587411515Honestly I'm not sure. Enemy specific rings are too specific, something like ring of predominance might work but only if they get aggressive recovery weapon because pawns get chipped from everything, especially in melee.
>>587402591>DD2DA>Steam>Nyla (pic)>~35>Thief>Simple >76DDTMU1ZZBFOrienteer/Aphonite tome would be greatly appreciatedIf you want a ring and a knight covered in scars, check out her sister below.-->DD2DA>Steam>Laryssa>175>Fighter>2Y1LBFSOQ9CBkill a lesser dragon for 1 Ring of ReversalEndgame rancor tank approved™*-Provoking Aura helmet + Provocation augment-Almost no Loss Gauge-Ring of Inversion + Ring of Reversal (she'not like the other girls)Won't be hiring back for a while since I'm on a new save
>>587412041It's giving them 3 each, forgeries for the old man and real ones for the girl. No reason to give either one all 5 as far as I know
I still don't understand what the fuck shitkino was thinking with the eternal ferry. It's not an NG+ bonus, it's not DA-only, Lost Trials that fuck your ass and expect you to ferry out at the end will STILL sometimes give you with a regular ferrystone to do it, as if you could ever possibly get there without getting the EF. How the hell did this happen?

>>587402591>PC>Marinera>Lvl 169>Calm Thief (Orienteer)>XVWYO9D4GMJC>Camp in Norgan for 5 Allheal quest
>>587411216I dunno I fired like 50 soporific bolts at her and she didn't go to sleepI had to settle for the regular head
>>587412068I've got the, wossname, the enhancement that lets her stab better while climbing things, on her daggers, and she does climb things a lot. I do have another pair of daggers with aggressive recovery, but they're BFIV and that just makes her too squishy in my view, not worth it if I have to constantly raise her.
will 2 demonbane rings stsck pretty well or should I only use 1?
>>587412196I would've been fine with it if they had simply let us be able to put it in storage.
>>587412041>>587412186Oh right, and you need a second forgery of Fulminous Shield for another quest.
>>587411980Cute demon feet
>>587411954yeah i have the second one already, i needed it for the ancient battleground quest. Even there, i somehow got to the book before the quest and i had given it to trisha and was forced to look for the second one>>587412041>You need to do it in a way where you get both the meister skills in a single playthroughseems dangerously easy to fuck up if you don't look up quests before doing them; which i wasn't doing before, but i kinda am now
the oxcart system was a failure anyway because there's only 3 of them. then you wait to arrive at your destination, or you have to fight and your oxcart will likely be destroyed and you then just run. you can literally just run away from everything and your pawns teleport to you so there's literally zero risk to traveling
>>587412797Don't you ENJOY the NO HANDHOLDING? Old school!
>>587412262why did they whine so much
>>587412971It's literally happening in monster hunter too.
>>587412950i feel like there's a middleground there that they could've gone for
>>587412971Japanese players are actually, on the whole, fucking terrible at games. They just have a relatively small contingent of supercharged turbo autists the likes of which the west cannot produce
>>587413058yeah but MH took shit to far and everyone hates Wilds because it's barely a MH game. there's a definite line to be wary of.
>>587412971Probably because of the high suicide rates and soul-crushing work/school culture. We want a challenge, they want a break.>>587413058That's also to pander to new western "fans" that World brought in, not just japanese whining. Although, it seems they've gone too far for even those people now.
>>587411471Post it again and I will hire them and gift flowers... I was going to remake my pawn but I haven't gotten around to it yet, even though I have a cool idea for them.

>>587414124Yeah.. They really cannot afford to have another dd2 or wilds launch again. Yes, I know mh sold rathillion copies as always, but the company definitely used most of their goodwill at that point

>>587415220It really sucks that you can't make the breasts too big or too small.

Finallly unlocked the T5 hat (and cleavage robe) on PS5. They're pretty nice, so it's unfortunate being at the top of the gear hierarchy makes them BASIC BITCH fashion>>587405852What's the code, though :B
>>587415660That's cheating, anonif warfarer was meant to have a skill set per weapon and access to maister skills, it would have them without modsbut it doesn'tyou are cheating the game and yourself
>>587415401Thanks. That sucks, I was hoping that with Norgan I could just leave my game perma Unmoored and have access to repeated spawns. Guess I'll still be effectively forced into NG+ at some point once I run out of rests and things stop respawning.
>>587416153>lets warfarer use maister skillsthat is DEFINITELY cheating
I wouldn't use warfarer anyway because the sparkly disappearing weapons are gay.
>>587405852fuck6EOUS51QD9B7thanks >>587416165
>>587416217Yeah, I guess so.
>>587416153That's a cheat and it makes all other vocations obsolete, why would you use other vocations if you can literally do everything as Warfarer?>>587415660>lets you use maister skills as WarfarerCheat.
>>587416590>>587416532It is still more fun and convenient than getting cucked out of gear and maister skills
>>587416590>why would you use other vocations if you can literally do everything as WarfarerLower relevant base stats and knockdown resist
>>587416720Sure, that's a valid opinion, and it's your game, you can do whatever you want in it. Doesn't make it not cheating, though.
>>587416937Yeah, I guess so.

>>587416720At the end of the day it's a single player game so you can do whatever the hell you want, but it is what it is.>>587416902>base statsHardly matters at endgame since 95% of your stats come from gear.Don't get me wrong though, Warfarer sucks but being able to use Maister skills seem too strong of a buff, Rearmament should be a core skill so you can use 6 skills and you should be able to automatically switch to a weapon type if you try to use a skill with a different weapon, those changes would go a long way.
>fix Le Harve>no one thinks of oxcarting to it from Vermund>bridge gets fixed>no one thinks of oxcarting to it from checkpoint town or BattahlIt's no Cassardis but it isn't THAT bad c'mon
>>587417462>we had a pretty sudden death happenThat's awful, personal or professional?
People modding their games to give themselves superpowers or instakilling enemies or spawning in max stacks of consumables in their inventories don't bother me at all in singleplayer or (some) strictly co-op games, it's their own experience, go wild. In games with competitive/adversarial multiplayer, though? Scum of the fucking earth, worst kind of gamer and a stain on humanity.

>>587417506That's why I said it's convenient. People can say it's cheating which is fair but true warfarer just gives you the power to balance warfarer however you want instead of bein arbitrarily cucked, not only stat wise but also in skill.
>>587417448Now now I didn't say it was a negative.
>>587403482I've been playing the game so I doubt I'll be making anything for a while.
>>587408803I use this>>587409665that's cheating>>587409982don't need it when you get a lot of knockdown res while charging attacks
On my first NG run, Ulrika took over mayorship of Harve from the old anti-beastren guy, but on my current NG+ run, she and the rest of the villages just kinda chill there and the old guy's still mayor. I got the Ulrika smooch scene in both cases too so it's not like I missed a quest. I guess it just depends on sequencing and what order you do things, kinda odd. It all runs together though because it's basically "go kill Saurians" on like five separate occasions so idk what I did different.
>>587416590>lets you use maister skillsOkay, then don't use Maister Skills?You sound like one of those guys screaming that hard mode is too easy while using 2 predominance rings and a Battle Frienzy IV^ weapon.The point of the mod is to make rearmament of the weapons part of the skills as QoL to remove the clunkyness. You still pay 2x rearmament's normal stamina as a cost too. It's fair and balanced QoL.
>>587415560All mods are cheats, who gives a shit when WF is clearly half-baked. Even my modded Warfarer is still going to be weaker than someone's minmaxed vanilla cheese set of skills, because I actively refuse to take broken skills that aren't fun and don't even carry a mage staff so I can't heal myself, even though it wouldn't even take a skill slot to do so.Also I use the mod that deletes the eternal ferrystone from the game.
>>587417462*hug* hope ur okay
>>587418328You know you can just heal with curatives.
>>587418468Well I was just referring to not using Anodyne specifically.
>>587418052'Each to their own' (nod nod)
I just end up using my bow for everything as Wayfarer, mobile, safe and quite strong. Maybe I should just go Archer, but I'd miss levitate
>>587417925I'm not the goonslop anon, just some guy who appreciated their stuff.>>587418193Fair enough, even better. Whenever you feel like making more, please make a hilt stroking gen.
>>587418795How do you stay safe as archer? and how do you do damage? I'm still learning
>>587403972The devs left Grand Decanter, a slow weak spell that nobody would use in the game just as an evil eye deletion cheat code. It deletes all the health bars in like 25 seconds
Warfarer's Class Fantasy:>highly flexible class that allows you to design your own skill combos and seamlessly integrate multiple classes with the drawbacks of no maister skills and bad statsWarfarer Reality:>extremely clunky class that essentially enforces a static skill rotation consisting of extremely specific skills in a set order with no flexibility what so ever if you want to have any chance to match base classes>also half baked and VERY clunky
>>587419052Always me moving and Stampede Shot if ghouls or something are charging me
>>587415075guh
Idk what people are on about, Warfarer is fucking great at leveling up other vocations for unlocking augments

In awe at the size of that Amazon. (Or maybe how diminutive Cheryl is?) To her owner by the way, it doesn't look like you have a weird build on the large lass, so she'll probably act the way you want.

The Sage feather robe grew on me very fast after getting it, I remember not liking how it looked on a Pawn I saw wearing it much earlier on in my time in Norgan and was just buying it for collectors sake. Glad I did.>>587402591>DD2>PC>Marcille>250>Mage>FHM89AZZM2A2>Kindhearted>Equipped with all cures/buffs except no speed boost, Benediction, and no weapon enchantment (seems like most people don't want that these days)>Job to kill...something I forget- for 3 All-Heals (I'm running low okay)She was, of course, supposed to be Marcille from Dungeon Meshi way back when I first made her, but she's long since become her own character to me! Currently in her first slutmog I think I've ever had her in because I've found the full body robes to be way cooler.
>>587422141I just attacked him the second time and i'm pretty sure he ran. He had loads of health and he just teleported away and left 4 malecysts.
>>587422402Oh, then I was deceived, I think I read that somewhere, Evil Eyes definitely do not escape when you reach UW though.
>>587422609I'm in the UW
>>587420005Oh that's terrible, my sympathies. I hope you have people around you for support.
Duck.
don't bully your pawns
>>587423208Can you smother me with your breasts instead?
Anyone else like giving their pawns modest upper armor but slutty lower armor which is only apparent when they flash you in combat?
>>587423208her face just looks like a young boy to me, i don't get the fascination
>>587422832But at which dungeon?
>>587423208Rabbit
>>587422609You might not have been, I saw a webm of an Archer pawn Heavenly Blasting him in the eye and deleting like six+ health bars at once and killing him, though I don't know if it was in UW or not. But if he's not health gated and scripted to survive you could totally do that to him in pre-UW I bet
Okay so I beat Reunion and the niggy that wanted the Gagana plumes is still not at the camp. He isn't at the morgue, either. I even spot checked a few campsites in norgan. Where the hell is he?
>>587423405Why are you thinking about young boys anon?

warfarer is just playing mystic spearman to freeze and teleport the enemies then switch to a weapon that actually does damage
>>587426962Spearhand is literally unplayable without a fuckload of stamina recovery items and actually being a warfarer with an archistaff for when you run out of those 10 seconds into a fight
>>587426962Kek, it do be like that. Os should have solemnity so she can stop casters.

>>587427219I don't use seching with MS because it's not a very flashy skill but I get what you mean. I do end up using a lot of stamina roburants during a fight just spamming edacite during ghoul and skelly waves.>>587427226She's a sorc right now but maybe I'll replace pact on her when she's a mage. 2bh I don't mind enemies casting spells. They stand still during it letting you get big damage. If they didn't cast spells then fimbls would be slamming and doing breath attacks all the time and ice goat would just be jumping everywhere throwing homing ice balls.
Cheryl and Amazon are on kind of another level when it comes to teamwork.

>>587429025>sexy clothing is hotter than full nudeIt's true, and it's not just because DD2's nude mods kind of suck, it's good to leave stuff to imagination.
I'm not sure I like this headpiece so much, but I can't think of anything else that would really fit the overall thing I'm going for here.

Cheryl and Amazon have returned to their homes, I was pleasantly surprised by their performances while we went around clearing Norgan of ragey demonspawn. Both of these Pawns served as an interesting opposite of pawns I've hired before and I think their pairing enhanced one another's performances while they were at it.Cheryl is a Thief, and for me she was a scarily effective dodge tank who drew lines of fire around the map and detonated them to kill or stagger crowds of enemies upon detonation. She had a way of leading everything towards Amazon, causing them to whiff attacks and then get punished when Amazon's own attacks went off. When isolated Cheryl really liked throwing objects or dodging closer to the party, which always occupied enemies and she never once died doing it. This is somewhat similar in effect to what I got out of Roimata when I hired her several days back, but where Roimata was more singularly focused on DPSing her enemies and it worked, Cheryl really understood her role as a disrupter.Amazon isn't quite as strong as Arikash but she certainly had staying power that Arikash didn't exhibit. Like most Warriors she's built for heavy AoE blows and big counters, and she's very good at pulling them off. She also didn't seem to be infected by the need to climb on everything (Neither did Arikash) that I've seen out of a couple Warriors I've hired so far. This Warrior liked to use Razing Ruin like a lot, and just never not spinning really does put in numbers.I'd like to thank you guys again for all the love and hires, it really does make my day. I'll do my best to get around to picking up more of you guys so I can write about you here.>>587431925Thank you too Anon, I'm going to try my best to stay positive and not get too despair-y, but for now I think I'll rest since I don't think I can bring myself to just play games at a time like this.
>>587432976I'm doing my second playthrough of the dlc on my original file(I started a fresh file when the dlc came out)Trying to speed through it until I get tailoring but im already up to the gagana quest and the old hag still won't give me the quest
>>587433365Good luck, cos
>>587433590Thanks, cos.
>>587433476Rest well, getting a good sleep helps in times like those.
:)
>>587433476I've actually since been trying to readjust Roimata's stuff to be a little more of a dodge tank when the situation calls for it. I may also try to find her some pants with a boosted Spectral Feint on them - though that on paper makes her squishier, in practice she'll completely negate fully half of all blows that get through her dodges.
>>587434007Cute-rika is like that.
>>587433476Yeah definitely don't force yourself to play or anything, hope you all the best and sorry for your loss

Does the same enemy at the start or a later area deal more damage? Also, are there corrupted versions too?
>'cher pawn>max single damage dealt last fight: 180kyou love to see it
>>587435061>Every day is a new horror
>>587436649Archer pawns are severely underrated. I love my kindhearted mage but my calm archer was just so clutch.
>>587437597They were such hot garbage in the base game, but they've grown on me and they really shine in the DLC, to the point now thieves are the least hired pawns, lmao.
>>587437597From my experience pawn Archers are excellent because they avoid most hits and have medium but very consistent DPS. Also if they have poison or explosive arrows they are surprisingly moderate with them, they don't waste them like idiots.
>>587437782I would honestly prefer it if they spammed the explosive arrows.
>it's another episode of my sorcerer spell lock-on range being reduced to sniffing distance for no reasonGetting real tired of having to stick my head up Death's asshole to get Flares on him.
I kinda hate that I have to dismiss pawns after completing their quest for it to count.
>>587438301You have to dismiss AND rest at your house or at an inn, otherwise it doesn't write to server
>>587438523Resting is ok, but having to dismiss them is kinda ass if all I want to do is complete their quest. Then they'll and tell someone else they got dismissed after a day.
>>587438523There are people who have hired your pawn and finished playing the game without ever dismissing so you'll never know they even hired.
>>587439386Yeah lol it's pretty funny, if someone likes your pawn so much they become a forever-pawn you won't get a heart or a like out of it. Kind of sideways, but it's really designed for rapid fire-hiring and adventuring with pawn quests in an episodic format
How on earth do I get in here?
>>587440323The entrance is completely sealed with ice, do I have to get lucky and have a gagana spawn nearby and lure it over?
>>587435061Damn, chronic wasting disease is spreading as far as Norgan.
>>587425109>UHICA2IVQ721fyi your code is wrong. The last letter is an I (Letter) not a 1 (Number)
I finished the DLC and I have lore questionsWhat the fuck is Satanwhatever? A shitty arisen who failed like Daimon?Why can there only be one arisen? In DD1 there were a fuckton, and I don't understand because I thought only one dragon could be alive at the time, and in the DLC they say pawns can travel between worlds but you can't? So why did the witch die of old age, she got her heart back I assume, same as the drunk warfarer guy, but then the duke and the dragonforged don't die until you kill Grigori.And is the pathfinder just a fucking faggot?
>>587437748>They were such hot garbage in the base gameNah, you're just bad at the game like most players that couldn't handle a modicum of invent management. Special arrows were always good. Explosive arrows were good for knockdown, drenching arrows were good for freeze, and blighting arrows would flinch and chunk life bars.
>>587441507The games have different logic about the cycle. Drop your preconceived notions and you might figure it out yourself.
>>587441420Fuck I'm retarded. Thanks. I'll actually copy it into a notepad so I stop eyeballing it.
>>587437748Archers were always good, it's just that by comparison they seem great now because pawns with melee vocations got super neutered with the September patch making them dumb as hell and striking at air more often than at enemies, plus the whole climb boost thing pawns are doing now doesn't help either.
>>587441507I think you missed quite a few things, there's several former Arisen in DD2, the oracle (Trickster grandma), the crazy nigga at Harve, Sigurd, (Mystic Spearhand nigger) Cliodnah, (Magick Archer elven lady) Lamond, (Warfarer drunk) Rothais, I think that's it.
>>587442880Yeah I only mentioned the drunk guy because he's the one that came to mind but I know about them. I guess the whole point is that there can only be one ACTIVE arisen at a point.If a dragon takes my heart I'd tell it "keep it, fuck off" like I assume a lot of these arisen did and why the pathfiinder is being such an ass trying to force his narrative.
>>587442880Sloobydooble whatever the hell his name is the head of the elves is also a former arisen. All of the maisters are former arisen.
>>587443142I don't think Lennart and Beren are Arisen, current or former. I don't thin Myriddan or Trina are former Arisen either, nor the thief guy.
>Start the DLC at level 40 in NG hard mode immediately after crossing into battahl for the first time>Get absolutely booty blasted but force my way through the entire DLC because it's fun>Beat satanachia and end the DLC at level 217>Back to the base game I goI think I'll just try and solo blood pact one shot everything but I know for a fact I've ruined the base game for myself nowWas still worth it, the DLC was amazing
>>587402853I almost didn't want to post this but then I thought you might appreciate the fact that I tried sketching your pawn even if it's very sloppy. I wanted to draw something to practice and went for the first pawn in the anchor since I think she's a cool cat. Cheers
>>587443606>even if it's very sloppyNTA, but if that's sloppy, I'd be blown away by what you'd call polished. Holy crap that's awesome, now I'm envious(but not, like, in a guilt-y kind of way)
>>587441804>>587442297No one wanted to hire them, they were too high maintenance and they weren't worth it. I'm sorry I hurt you feelings but that's how things were. Now stop crying, archers are good now.
>>587443606NTA but it's very nice. You might've just started an arms race for the first anchorpost so they can get a cool drawing from you
>put special arrow skills on your archer pawn>no one hires>replace special arrow skills with normal arrow skills>plenty of hires
>>587443606Very nice
>>587444647AAAAAAAAAAA
I have a question about the DLC, I didn't really know much about going into itSo I play warrior, I play on hard mode, that gives me a lot of exp so I'm very high level but I'm not stat capped in magick and magic resist yet. One time I went to a lost rite dungeon with an evil eye and honestiy it basically destroyed us until it fucked off. Now I'm 200 levels higher, do I go back to that dungeon? I kinda looked it up to see if it was normal that it left and people were saying you could absorb his power, so should I just farm a weapon that I like, then try to fight it again?
The maister skill quests fucking suck, I might just mod the scrolls into my inventory and skip them
>>587444872https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txRVM5Cl5iQAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

What should I dupe with the Sphinx? I already have all the portcrystals I need. Does she stick around in the shrine after UW or do I have to finish her riddles before that?
>>587445180Get over it fag.
Wakestone shards are kinda gross looking, ew.
>>587445270rotten tideswimmer
>>587444904The eye is meant to leave first time you go there. When you're in unmoored theres 3 new dungeons and there you can fight it again.
>>587445395They are really gross looking, lol.
>>587445395Is it, like... petrified brine?
>>587444904Go back and do it just to do it but the DLC stuff will trivialize anything from the rite dungeons right away.
>>587445270Any item you want from lost rites.
>>587445180He's actually right though. Archer was probably the most unpopular pawn vocation because of the arrow skill tax and melee vocations, especially Thief, were incredibly powerful. Archers have only recent gotten favor because of their new skills, how easy it is to get special arrows, and the overall enemy design of the expansion make Archers more useful.
To this day I still don't quite understand all the details of DD2's story, yes, I might be retarded, how's this:>Rothais is the first/oldest Arisen we know of, he did kill his Dragon and lived for a while enjoying the fame and renown of slaying the Dragon>but eventually realized it was all fake and became mad and started killing a bunch of peopleNow this is where it gets funky for me, so help me out>a new cycle is supposed to happen and Pathfinder sends several Arisen after him, but Rothais is too strong and kills them allNow, why is a ghost like a Seneschal? How far did he go after killing the Dragon? Or is Rothais supposed to be a regular person after killing the Dragon? If so, how is the following possible without him dying of old age>this goes on for so long that the land, implied to be Gransys, has sunk and is now an ancient civilization lost to time>now come our times, in Vermund/Battahl>all the Arisen we meet have given up or failed and haven't been so far as to face Rothais, which still seems to be an obstacle to the Cycle, perhaps the Pathfinder was also guiding them but realized they just didn't have what it takes>Pathfinder seemingly gets lucky with us in Melve, and we continue to become stronger and stronger, Pathfinder doesn't seem to acknowledge or warn us about Rothais>Rothais wants us to break free of the Cycle so he gives his worn ass GodsbaneI'll stop for now since I'm not even sure about what I got wrong or right so far
Almost there... just 23 more kills to go... I actually ran out of purple orbs so I will have to do the devouring rancor now.
>>587438269>stick my head up Death's assholewhat does it smell like?
>>587445395I remember pawns mentioning something about how a Wakestone's "dark powers" can bring you back to life, I wonder if they know something about Wakestones that we don't.
>>587445780Rothais IS the Seneschal. That's where Pathfinder became frustrated - Rothais stopped letting the cycle be a cycle.
>>587445780You got most of it to be honest. I just don't know what the fuck the pathfinder is or wants, thing seems to nudge things into a particular direction but it looks like our will was strong enough as we discovered a loophole.

>>587407672Quest completed! Also took her to kill an Evil Eye. She seems to like clinging to the tentacles. Also, I mentioned before but her hair looks nicer without the goofy feather hat.
>>587447404Thank you! I hope she pulled her weight well in your team.Yeah, the hat is a very specific look that not all characters can pull off, I guess. I just didn't really have any ideas for a theme for her outfit for a while!
>>587443606>that could've been my cat if I posted firstfaaaaaaaaaaaaaak...saved, very nice
>the Arisen could be ANYONE...>...those queer Pawns are all the same lot...
>>587446302So he really is this Cycle's Seneschal and that means he's remained undefeated for an incredibly long time, it's funny how we can't really replicate the same actions from the first game to face him as we did Savan so instead we ruin our world by unmoor-ing it (?), there's no facing the previous Arisen, no passing of the Godsbane, etc.That does clear things up for me and it means he's been killing Arisen for centuries, it's kind of fucked up but he's on our side of trying to break free of the Cycle.>>587446406It's not fully explained but as I understand it he is a being beyond the Cycles and is apparently in charge of them, which is why he is intervening so heavily out of desperation, I guess he is not normally supposed to intervene that much but Rothais gave him no choice.Our Cycle has been going for an incredibly long time and Pathfinder is being forced to end it so a new one can start somehow, Pathfinder mentions something about some entity called Oblivion, which I assume must be above Pathfinder.And I just had a thought, maybe our Cycle going on for so long is what causes some of the fucked up things we see in this game that differ from the first game, such as Arisen not being shown regaining their hearts and aging or the brine acting like it does when we kill The Dragon and ourselves with the Godsbane.By comparison in the first game, there's only 2 former Arisen and Savan is the current Cycle's Seneschal, so the Cycle is very "fresh".I'll replay the game and pay closer attention to the story to see what I missed.
Why did she have a hard time being the only woman?

>>587445334Keep crying loser
>>587448982From how I understand it Rothais ascended to seneschal. Realized it was all a scam, he rebelled, went back down to the world with his power as a seneschal intact and created the kingdom Vernworth. As long as he lives his cycle will never end endangering the world perpetuity to entropy, so the "will" created pathjanny as a correction tool and all of the arisen since then was just a countermeasure while giving them the lie; the story of the dragon they need to fell etc is all just a mask, this is hinted when Rothais was surprised the arisen (we) was not in the loop and have no intention to kill him. All the other former arisens still walking are probably a byproduct of Rothais still existing, creating a loophole in the cycle that never got far/powerful enough to be eventually guided to Rothais.But yeah I don't even think I got it all right.

>>587450514Savan was a steward, Rothais wanted to conquer more. I think that makes Pathfinder take over as a kind of hollow administrative version of the cycle

>>587452613Tried, died. Hindsight works
>>587452651Fat cat jugs.
>>587450263That's what I got out of it too, and I was thinking of a few other bits, we're technically doing things out of order, when we meet Rothais he gives us the Godsbane right away, normally we'd kill him and become Seneschal at that point but obviously this doesn't happen and the Dragon is still alive anyway and has our heart.Maybe that's why when we kill ourselves with the Godsbane we trigger the Unmoored World, or maybe Pathfinder was planning on causing the Unmoored World to destroy the Cycle but wanted us to play the part anyway, it's not clear but he does tease us and asks if we're seeking "greater status" when we kill the Dragon and are spending time as sovran, he must've been referring to becoming Seneschal.He keeps us in that loop of killing the Dragon over and over until we do something different, I wonder what he actually wanted us to do since he never tell us about or ask us to kill Rothais.Some shit is not adding up.
>>587452613You can use Vengeful Slash probably. I've countered Death's scythe with Tidal Rage so I assume all melee counters will work.

>>587452873Yeah it's weird, the dialog and presentation of the base game story would have you believe that he's the Big Bad Dragon that this Arisen is destined to kill. But on the flip side, he's the one railroads the Arisen into acquiring, and then repairing, the Godsbane before facing the Red Dragon. And he ensures that we stay in that loop until we figure out how to go Unmoored. He acts like he's pissed and throwing a tantrum but then in the Lost Rites seems to imply that us challenging the Great Will is our intended destiny. Definitely mixed signals.

>>587459232Depending on what you have in mind. Having a reference helps with the process. The problem that I have with the game is that certain faces don't look good under harsh lighting. 23 is one of the few faces that looks good on all lighting. I used 24 on my pawn to give the mature look.

>>587459232As others have said, face 23(pic related as an example) is pretty universally agreed upon as the best/easiest to start with. Other faces require more tweaking, but can also achieve really good results.
>>58745966417 seems to be the next most common after 23, I used it before even knowing about the 23 meme. I think 17 has an issue with the forehead if you raise face height too much though.At this point I've been psyoped into trying to make good non-23 faces, though I'm not sure I would've used 23 normally anyway, I started with fucking face 8 gigachaddess on my first arisen at launch.

Total Demon Death
>>587463141I've been saying this a lot lately (since March 2024)
I wish more people chatted about the endgame split between unmoored and norgan. it's one of the most unique in gaming I've seen.
>>587464143What do you mean?In my opinion the UW being completely separate from the DLC is one of the DLCs biggest failures. It's bad from an immersion and from a gameplay perspective.
i want mid-combat high fives
where 2 find garm?
Suri fighting the good fight by plugging a Demon's face as many arrows as she can hold. I'm also fond of Suri's look, with a more "regular" (DD1DA fans would recognize it immediately though! We all had it!) bow than the DLC's rather overdesigned ones.
I do hope that CAPCOM will give us little mini DLCs that add new "Grand" skills to the game. I was really under the impression that every skill would get a new version.

>>587464810lol I don't pay attention to that too much I just love doing quests for you goobers. That said I think I should lock in with my girl's loadout for endgame rancors..
>>587464568Rocky lair, bridge before medusa, cave across from medusa
>>587463923I fucking hate these overdesigned pieces of shit, they have too much moves in their kit and the DLC fucking spams them everywhere
>>587464315I played on Hard Mode so I can't speak for everybody, but:I think the idea of dungeons being expanded by UW and the Evil Eye mechanic is really interesting.There's a fundamentally different experience of Norgan depending on if a person participated in Unmoored beforehand or not.People who went straight to Norgan had to face lots of hard challenges to go from Relic Level 1 to Relic Level 3.Their reward for sticking with the game for that long was Relic Level 4 and Relic Level 5 equipment.Relic Level 4 being a bit of an odd tier since some stuff was exclusive to that tier compared to 5.People who went to Norgan after doing Unmoored World could effectively steamroll the first half of an otherwise very difficult journey.Dragonforged Unmoored World equipment was roughly on par with high-end Relic Level 3 equipment.Their reward for sticking with the game for that long was being able to breeze past "Norgan Part 1" being geared for "Norgan Part 2" instead.In Monster Hunter there's a common trend wherein expansions supply gear meant to reach later stages efficiently.Dark Arisen 2 continues this somewhat. Norgan Attire is very reliable, and early Lost Rites can supply gear suited to reaching Unmoored.There's a self-contained set of equipment suited to getting to unmoored world easily, without sequence-breaking to Norgan.So there's a neat triangle there. Lost Rites -> Unmoored -> Norgan.Since the game is very friendly to skipping around, it's easy to miss this progression.But in being easy to miss, each playthrough can vary if people want it to.
>>587465178Then again doing the UW trials without Norgan gear is its own challenge.
>>587465178What you are describing is just powercreep, powercreep so bad that it's eating itself within the same DLC. Norgan is so power-creepy over the base game that it also massively powercreeps base-game adjacent content added at the same time.It's not good design to have 1/2 (I know it's not really an even split of LR/Norgan but whatever) of the DLC be either a minor head start on the "real content" which you push through in a few hours anyway or just a complete waste of time if you do it after Norgan.The evil eye mechanic is somewhat interesting, but I'm not spending the time to use it when it's much much worse than what I had already, I expect most people who did Norgan first to experience the story like I did feel this way also, most of the LRs felt like an underwhelming experience after beating the DLC story.
>>587464898Appreciate it! The maker has been good to me and I got some pretty good rolls IMO on Archer gear for her so I think she is in a good place for now...
He was blushing the entire time.
I have a bad habit of finding effective pawns and keeping them for far too long but I am going to send back Iðunn and Treipra now.Archers got such a glow up in this DLC honestly.
>>587465836Did you give him steroids too, just to really rub it in that he never had a chance?
If I do ever change her class I'll make Lavender an Archer probably, they just look cool all the time.
>>587466131Sure did. I don't think there's any way you can lose unless you stand still and let him hit you.
>>587465464Right. I think that's what makes it very interesting and unique among other games. There's plenty of brutal segments that are entirely driven by how you route your progression.Someone who explores often would know how to get from Vermund to Agamen on foot. They might also know to forage for Level 1 Relics instead of trying to defeat Norgan enemies at low level.Early Lost Rite gear is roughly as strong as Battahl equipment. Effectively streamlining the main quest enough to make getting to Unmoored somewhat convenient.Lost Rite gear also benefits from Unmoored World drops, so it lets you thrive in that biome via upgrading.Upgrading the early gear gives you just enough stats to manage the Unmoored trials before gaining Ephemeral Keys.All that stuff is really cool, imo.>>587465674That's what I thought at first. My main file had every weapon and armor in the game, and the file I did the DLC on had basically nothing.I used to do low level runs of Bitterblack Isle. There, you could actually get very far by just foraging.I went to Norgan as soon as I could and died, but when I went to Norgan on my main file I realized I had missed a lot of context by dying to Beorcans.I think the people who feel the power creep the strongest are players who played Bitterblack Isle in DD1.That's the person who I'd imagine would immediately find Level 1 equipment and realize they just skipped a lot of the Pre-Norgan progression.But I also think that's what makes the Evil Eye mechanic somewhat unique, there's a "gap" before "Norgan Part 2" where it still makes sense to get those maxed out.Both DLCs funnel you towards "Norgan Part 2" but it's easy to skip large sections of that unintentionally. My third playthrough where I'm routing things with this info has been the most "adventure-y" I've had as someone who has been playing DD2 since it came out.There's probably a better way they could have handled progression, but it's very unique as is albeit flawed.

Suri and Amber are homeward bound! For this team I ended up swapping to Warrior given I was going to be running with two mages, and hadn't checked beforehand to see Amber was actually specc'd for DPS rather than support. Nevertheless, we persevered and brought low around six vortexes before I went to the big one and then dunked Satan back into the mists. Let's talk about it.Starting with Suri, we have a pretty solid "keep-away" archer who fits nicely within the mold of other gold standard endgame archers we have around here. Suri didn't spam any move in particular and seemed to favor alternating her attacks in an almost cinematic way. It really reminded me of some of those scenes of Legolas shooting Uruk-Hai where he never really did the same thing twice until the packs were dead. She even happened to perform acrobatics often enough, being the only Archer I've hired so far to go in for kicks without using the Kite Arrow skill.Amber was a combat mage, loaded with each elemental skill as well as Spellhold and Argent Solace. It took me by surprise that she actually seemed to favor Frigor, which threw ghouls around and actually pissed off Lesser Demons enough to try chasing her around. I had a moment where she had cast Levin enough to attract one's attention, and then as he did his flying drop kick that they really like doing she floated up in the sky and avoided it and then Frigor'd him back on the ground with a Spellheld Frigor. Both pawns stayed alive very effectively, but I did notice Azalea hitting them a lot with Argent Solace so maybe they both use a lot of stamina?This was a fun one, I hope the next pair of fellas I grab is nearly as funny.
>>587469773based nooticer
>>587441507He's not an arisen, he's an amalgamation of the hatred that former Arisen held towards the Cycle. This hatred/rancor formed Niflhel, and the Arisen became Lesser Demons. Satanachia was spawned by Niflhel itself.
>>587469628I don't mind if they go a little crazy, but it would still have to be grounded closer to DD's level of fantasy, maybe expanding on DDONs. If they just go hard on anime tropes/waifu pandering/numbers and particles filling the screen then its just going to blend in with the rest of the slop.
>>587469465you can do that in DD2 alreadyhttps://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/1505
>>587462049If you need RC I recommend just running around Norgan taking down Colossal Foes with the loot ring on you or your main pawn and turning all the level 1-3 spoils into RC, you'll quickly get a lot of RC from that.

>NPC Arisen Armor mod has some really prices armor pieces, so you finally have something to spend gold on>Mod also makes quest giver NPCs give them their armor set when you complete their ques tline>NPC lover mod gives you the ability to give your lovers equipment, and make them run alongside youYeah, I will be busy with New Game Plus.

>>587470175Angel without wings.
>>587470201Imagine the transmog if they actually gave us access to those clothes.
>>587470175it's meta imo. you can't levitate and use quick spell at the same time.
>>587470175soulless
>>587470201yeah this game is my forever game unless DD3 is better.
Next up will be return hires for Abigail and Sui, a Thief and an Archer. These don't seem to have been inundated in the whole endgame circuit just yet, so I'm expecting shenanigans in a good way. Both of these pawns are elves, with Sui carrying something of a demure winter ensemble and Abigail comes off as something of a bandit or part of a gang; a very fitting thief-y look.>>587464825If I can make someone smile, then it's all worth it.>>587469814Someone's gotta do it! Might as well do my part right?>>587469939A great recommendation! I do wear the Satan Mulcher Loot Ring on my Arisen, though I haven't killed him enough times just yet to reach its full potential. I have started selling the less-than-four rating items to the old lady, and it keeps me hovering around 8-12k RC but never really going higher. For now!
>>587471471>If I can make someone smile, then it's all worth it.This shit website needs more people like you
>>587471471I want to make YOU smile!

Might just be my weakness for this cape, but damn, what a cutie.
I swear I've played the new save 30 hours and barely even touched most of Vermund.
>>587460318Heyyyy, that's a pretty good mature lady. Got a code? I promise I'm not the meat stuffer.
>>587458326>>587422337
>>587476069I wish it had more color variants.
>>587466903'ppi
>>587402591PCAmazon321WarriorY860PXY3V1J3Straightforward orienteer, camp in vermund for allheals. Updated build I think I'll stop with: switched BF1 for BF2 with improved Spectral Feint^ for cheeky 50% damage ignore while retaining gigahp.
Why was the latest patch 7gb? Seems big for 2 armour sets and some bug fixes
>>587477787Melee has it so good.We should've gotten a skill that reduces physical stats in exchange for boosting magick or element.
>>587477787I don't even have spectral faint^ yet but even the normal one is damn good
>>5874781742026 and people still don't understand how updating games worksYou can't replace every file and assets individually most of the time they are included in a larger overall thing that has to be replaced entirely even if only a small part of it has changed
>>587450484The quest is to earn a badge not to kill a single lesser dragon. Your pawn might be smarter than you, lol.
>>587466769Thanks for the tip, I could use another one of those. Also, riding a griffin seems like something Dangan would try to do
good lord these stinky lizards will not leave me alone today, third one I've killed while walking back to Vernworth to turn in these last two sidequests
>>587480336MY SILENT-HEARTED KIN
Riddle me this, why does Satan appear in vortices then almost immediately piss off? Is he supposed to be a nuisance or is there some way to stop him from running away?
>>587478240Yeah. On the flip side you got a huge selection of strong melee pawns for you to tank while you can run around with BF4/BF4^. >>587478504I'd say it's not 10/10 on pawns that get hit all the time especially if you didn't stack Health Boost but 50% can become outright silly.
This one died of a fractured ass>>587480750AIIIEEE FUCK OFF
Saw a rift pawn from the eastern lands with a leg transmog I've never seen before. Is this a mod?
>>587481060ok bro that just looks ridiculous
>>587481237I think that's just really clever use of tattoos
>>587480894It's just a bonus "would you like to fight him now?" offer. You either chase him through the portal to kill him now or keep grinding vortexes.
>>587481237Those are cleverly used tattoos.
>>587481314Ahh I see, danke anon
>>587481313>>587481428Thanks, you guys are right.
Does the Lost rites dungeons, which you need to finish as a magic archer, and the second one, which requires everyone in the team to have light weight, have any nice looking loot?
>>587484309I would say so, all these dungeons have unique gear that's worth getting if only for transmog.
>>587484309Subjective, I liked all the Lost Rite gear.Also you can do that dungeon as Archer, it doesn't have to be Magick Archer.
>>587484309Besides the offering flame? I don't remember. I think all of them are worth doing, for the light weight one just buy the ring off the danger gal battahl merchant at the railway, easiest way to do it besides getting naked. The archer one is super easy, just go archer and equip some explosive arrows.
>>587476637She's PS5 though. I really wish the game has crossplaform like with Wilds.>>587420364
How come our PS5 brethren have some of the best looking characters?
>>587483131looks like the Ass Staff from Dr.Mephisto from South park
>>587485140Citation needed
>>587484596>>587484598>>587484703Got it, thanks. Then i'll need to beat them. A question tho, in NG+, will the offering flame from the dungeons i already cleared in my previous playthrough be awarded again?
>>587485303No, I think obelisks carry over to NG+ so you don't have to redo the offering flame thing. Not sure what you get instead tho.
>>587485453I just have 7 obelisks lit, and i dont remember which third dungeon i didnt complete
>>587485805Just use the compass, cos. Look at the map, any dungeon with a closed door is incomplete.
So they just gave up on blunt weapon and armor enemies in the dlc?
>>587485303You do get additional flames, I currently have 3 flames on this NG+ despite already having received all flames in the previous NG, though they are pointless since you get enough to max everything from just 1 NG.>>587485805Probably Shrouded Warrens and also this >>587485908 will help you figure out the actual dungeon you're missing.
PLEASE JUST ONE GIGANTUS VIMI BEG YOU IVE BEEN DOING THIS FOR A WHOLE WEEK
My arisen just can't wait to start farming again.
>>587486673It's the desire sensor, cos. You need to stop thinking about it, otherwise you'll never get it.
Now THAT is the mien of a TRVE hero.also ANOTHER stinky flying lizard, these things are respawning kind of fast now
>>587486673^ or?
>>587485978Got it, i'll just replay all of them
>>587486959You shouldn't have to, first check the map for these icons, the one you're looking for should look like the 1st icon, an "Incomplete Lost Rites trial" which is what the other anon was saying about the compass.
>>587487471The fact there's a tutorial popup, lol.
What is the consensus on equipping duplicate skills on pawns. Do they use that skill more often?
Gigawizard Gil looks rad, I actually don't remember when I got sorc pawn last time.
>>587487471In NG+, they're all already shown on the map, and all of them are marked as incomplete. Or if i use the compass, will it update the doors and show me which ones i didnt complete in my previous playthrough?
>>587487765I have actually never tried to do that. It might be a placebo effect, pawns just don't know how to use some skills effectively, like I've never seen a pawn use tortanic slash.
>>587487765No, they don't at all, and personally I think it looks a bit tacky.If you wanna prioritize just leave slots empty
What's the godly party comp for rancor farming?
>blem and goat>death shows upThis party is getting crazy.
>>587487797Gil is one of the good ones.
>>587488157I think the blemmyea is the most dangerous one, there. Motherfucker can actually eat your pawn.
>>587488025I noticed an issue with this too. In the base game, it didnt seem to happen, or maybe i just didnt pay attention, but my fighter pawn, having 4 skills out of 6, would sometimes just walk around the boss without even attacking. With 6 skills, i dont seem to notice that behavior anymore
>>587488108A fighter, 2 warriors, and a full support mage with Arcanist and a library in her pocket.Easiest Rancors I ever did.t. 999 with near-perfect gear.
>>587488389I thought red vocations would dominate the field. I'm guessing once the undead dragon spawn you hop in and clip it's wings.
>>587487838>In NG+, they're all already shown on the map, and all of them are marked as incomplete.Pretty much this, I don't remember if I used the compass on this NG+ but I did use it on the previous NG and looking at the map right now, all the Lost Rites dungeons have the incomplete icon except for the ones I explored again on this NG+ and they all had flames too, so that's more flames that you really can't use unless you missed some on the previous NG I suppose.
Do we know if there are any Lost Rites that respawn indefinitely before moving to UW?
>>587488176Wish he used flare on bosses instead of skeleton mages more. >>587488307Nvm Death just culled that annoying bastard.
What are the best mods to run for a "welcome to the rice fields motherfucker!" experience in NG++?I'm killing Satan in ~45 seconds on nearly every class and waltzing through Devourerng Rancors in record time without even my squishy mage pawn going down.I'm putting all my Upgraded Frienzy 4 weapons away for 4-skill variants because 4x damage is just too strong for even mods to challenge, and some of the support passives are also too good.I'm looking to fight like 50 goblins instead of 5 and shit like that.I want my Warfarer to engage in Warfare.
>>587488984He hungry..
>>587488851Nope.
Yes I do love random low level rancors more, how could you tell
>>587487985I think I want to remove the Archer skills that have her take a still position cause it's so hectic in endgame she can never seem to get any of the stationary skills off... >>587488025I vaguely remember in DD1 only equipping one skill meant the pawn would spam it, particularly effective with tenfold flurry if I remember right, but I might just be mandelaing it. it's been a while...
She had dragon aids when I hired her... She's clean now.
>>587485140There are no client-end mods on PS5 so you need to tweak with base sliders only
>>587490451That explains nothing
On this 4th playthrough I gave my Arisen and pawn thicker thighs, wider hips, and bigger asses.
>>587490536Modder can think their pawn is hot while she looks busted in the rift
>>587471471Thanks for the hire! Abigail's meant to be a sellsword or mercenary (so basically a bandit when there's no jobs)
>every female beastren pawn at lvl 999 is an orienteerWhat causes this phenomenon?
>>587490638proofs?
>>587490307Is she though? We just killed the 2nd evil eye... and she is still saying weird things...
>>587490226That's an excellent idea, but I'd keep skills like eagle shot or heavenly shot, specially the later because if they hit a weakspot that's a guaranteed crit and possible one tab most of the time.
i've managed to complete both spellbound and sorcerer appraisal with no forgeries.turns out, they only need 3 books each. That wasn't clear at all at first. So it can be done with no forgeries. So the only quest you truly risk to fail is Tolled to Rest, if you do spellbound and sorcerer appraisal first and thus consume both copies of Nation's Death Knell.One thing i might have got wrong is i completed sorcerer appraisal first and spellbound later, so i didn't have trisha's ring while talking to her father. But i still seem to have gotten all the rewards, so i don't know what difference it makes. Maybe some dialogues. Also i thought pawns would attack trisha, maybe they did in earlier versions, but they just stayed still and used some support abilities like the shield provocation
>>587403117>>587403163uoh

>>587492251 I don't think she knows it exists...
>>587492171You need to rest once to get evacuated NPCs to set up their facilities.
>>587490638This webm fucking rocks
>>587492324yet
Wrong neighborhood
>>587492283The problem isn't face 23; it's people being too creatively bankrupt to edit it into something cool and distinct.
>>587492501I was merely jesting, but you are right
>>587492347ooooh thanks! That actually explains a lot.
>>587490926Orienteer (and maybe also Arcanist, situationally) is the only specialization worth a damn, especially that late into the game. Idk about the female beastren part
>>587492480noooo please don't make me kiss your bellies nopo haha
>>587490638And a partridge in a pear tree!
I'm starting to think this game might be unplayable without parts hider. There's so much customization you don't get access to without it.
>>587492927Hide other parts.
>>587452651contemplate the aroma
when will "creatively bankrupt" stop being the flavor of the 4th quarter term.
>>587493147in a month or two
>>587493147probably when you stop acknowledging him
>>587488984if you know how to juke his attacks, Death becomes a really good way of clearing out annoying enemies in rancors.
>>587492927Meanwhile I wish I could add more parts because so many armour sets show bare legs when worn with the thigh boots and it looks stupid.
>>587492927I prefer Arisen's Atelier since it also lets you change part colors.
>>587493147It upsets you because it's the cold hard truth.
>>587489056Anyone?I'm guessing this isn't a popular mod category...
>>587492927Some of the big poofy robes can get pretty damn lewd once you start zapping some parts. Makes me wonder if the artists/devs in charge of armor design knew that enterprising modders might get a hold of the system and know how to manipulate it.
>>587493220god willing>>587493234that's the first time I've acknowledged that anon in the past 6 or 10 threads now.>>587493410It's wild to me that a face(23) does so much psyche damage to anon.
God, I love AI. Take all my water.
AS I WANDER COLD AND IMMANE
>>587489056>>587493562Custom Difficulty Tweaks is a good baseline. I *think* it also has a spawn multiplier, but I haven't looked at the newest version's settings outside of tweaking stats.
>>587492927It's essential when your character has a fat ass /thighs because it makes every skirt and robe make you look fucking obese.
>>587493691You could've tried asking us, not that I care, b-baka
>>587493691literally could've just looked at the wiki or asked us like anon said. Jesus lmao.
>>587493764I did but while I'm grateful for a response it was vague.
>>587493664It seems wild because originality is a concept foreign to you.
>>587493853Face(23) isn't real, anon, Face(23) can't hurt you. Take your medicine, desu.
>>587493971To him his pills all look like little face 23s so he flushed them.

name one(1) attractive pawn that isn't face23
>>587493971Weak comeback.
>>587493691Oh shit, I'm sorry, I missed your question, I could've answered this one, I distinctly remember that dungeon with the hat because of the ambush that happens there.
>>587493147As long the discord troons are here, it'll never go away.
>>587494049I could name several but you would just copy them.
I full cleared Daemon's Corral, including the Corrupted Cyclops, yet I'm not getting a checkmark. What gives?
Important news: someone took flop's usual seat so she had to sit in a different one.
>>587494257
>>587494049You :3
>>587494306Who did it!?Who took Flop's seat!?Was it that whore Engel!?
>>587494159>Oh shit, I'm sorrySorry for what? My daddy taught me not to be ashamed of my pawn. Especially when it's such a good size and all.
>>587494306Flop is a she?
>>587494049Every single face 26 pawn. I love asians.
>>587491029Well she has eagle shot it seems to only trigger when enemies get close or if they are staggered/downed.Idk how I feel about heavenly shot I have seen her delete like 4-5 pips with it but it is super inconsistent and I've seen her start to charge to and stop so many times I'd rather her just be loosing arrows... Also she has ring of audacity so unless I'm mistaken and she missed the shot it literally does 0 damage with that ring equipped... >>587492007Picrel
>>587494273>>587487471
>>587494049gotta use 22 iirc for those huge fat lips
>>587494049You can make an absolute cutie patootie pie with face 7
>Face 1>Hairstyle 1>Hair color 1>All sliders 50%Who else is creatively wealthy in here?

don't stack flare on my AAAS
>frozen lake questThis quest is so fucking ass man.
>Forget which face I made my pawn with back at release>check>23
>>587495217You can skip it and get the book.
>>587495217It's a bit tedious but it's not bad. I think it's a bit boring because it's an enemy we've fought a so many times before. I think you can probably finish it off really fast with heavenly shot.
the climb boost that pawns offer is really annoying, i'm not sure why they thought that was a good idea to include. it doesn't seem to take anything into consideration.>you're an archer/mage/sorcerer and the pawn offers a boost>you're on top of the monster's head and a pawn on the leg offers a boost>the mage pawn starts climbing the monster and offers a boostthey spend so long just waiting for you to potentially accept it too...
>>587495332But, were you creative?
>>587495217It's so inconsistent too.Anytime people complain about this quest you've got a bunch of others coming out of the woodworking saying "nuh uh skill issue it's quick and easy" and it turns out that those people actually had their pawns also hop on the ballistas and fire at the dragon alongside their Arisen, so it's over in like 60 seconds.Whereas most people who complain are the ones whose pawns just dicked around while the Arisen was the only one pumping shots into it, getting ballistas destroyed, and having the dragon spam the fog move that makes it impossible to aim.>t. anon in the second group
>>587494049So you can nitpick and shit on them? Nice try
>>587495548my pawns all pulled out the cuck chair to watch me during that fight, i'm on my second playthrough now so i'll have to mess around with it a bit to see if i can't get them to actually jump on ballistae.
Just clip glitch through the gate and get the book. You can then hand it in at the start of the quest.
>ballistaewell la-di-da look at mr fancypants over here
>>587495801is aught amiss?
If I swapped Engel to Arcanist: would that annoy anyone currently using her?I've got 50+ of every tome from all the rancors I did...
>>587495950>currently using herDon't say it like that, she's not some cum rag... But an arcanist mage can be good, that way they can use a lot more spells.
>>587496262Okay, sorry: "bringing her along on grand adventures."
Soft pawn feet
>>587494554kek
>>587496446celia feet & ceryl tummy
>>587494273It gets a checkmark when you've just cleared the dungeon, it will respawn some enemies and loot after a few days and it will look like that.
>>587402554Does anybody have the Unmoored World map an anon from here made a long time ago with all the enemy positions and exclusive chests? I figure it's outdated since no Lost Rites but the chests would still be useful. Please and thank you desu
>>587496634
>>587496397That's better.
>bro turn your Arisen into an Archer so you can do this elf quest>bro turn your Arisen into a Sorcerer so you can get this skill>bro turn your Arisen into a Mage so you can levitate to that chest that's out of reachWhy did they make the red vocations the objectively best and most fun vocations in the game only to then turn around and constantly throw up roadblocks that force you to use some inferior vocation? Makes no sense!
>>587496762Warfarer does not have this problem (it has other issues though)
>>587496762To make you play Warfarer, Anon!
>>587496762Do you actually have to levitate to get that chest? can't just jump?
>>587496729Thank you ser!!!
>>587496762Mage pawns can also float up to chests that their master or a pawn got in their world.They'll say something like "I have the ability to get to that chest master, would you like me to?" and then you just give the "go" order.
>>587495475I like to think so
>>587496762>levitate to that chest that's out of reachYou need to learn how to wall jump and double jump as a thief. You can become crazily agile. You can get all the way up that cliff by Melve that has a barred gate (that you can glitch through) that leads to a shortcut to the elf area.
>>587496762>turn your Arisen into a Sorcerer so you can get this skill?
dragonplague just triggered while I was resting in my poorfag house in vernsworth, every npc diedhow bricked am I? I certainly don't want to waste wakestones
>>587497283go on a quest to locate an eternal wakestone, you only have one opportunity to do this blind.
>>587497283Does it even have any real consequences?
>>587497283lol lmao
>>587497283>how bricked am I?Kek.
>>587496762I found Sorcerer to be quite funI'm sure I'll enjoy Archer when I get to itonly Mage was painful
>>587497283>>587497484Or just rest, like, 6 more times.
>>587497613if you wanna be boring about it sure, but when else are you gonna use an eternal wakestone?
>>587497283Vernworth's NPCs are absolutely useless once you're done with the cityyou can leave them to rot unless you had an ongoing quest
>>587497283Don't sweat it and enjoy the FPS boost.
>>587497283I can gift you an eternal wakestone if you want, just post your pawn ID.
i like the voice line pawns have about them not liking other people being in your home, i forget exactly what it was though
uhh... any hint for blue slimes? I threw everything at it in the environment. don't outright tell me what to do tho
>>587498116throw more carefully
>>587498116If you did actually throw everything at it, then you wouldn't need a hint.
>>587498116They're weak to a specific ailment and it is not elemental
>>587498116I love when you find out and pawns are also surprised.
>>587497675I used mine in the ghost oxcart mission because I killed a bunch of guards at the end. They all had the "use wakestone" prompt afterwards. After I used it, they all just attacked me again so I killed them again. Ungrateful scum.
>>587498116There is a very specific thing to quite literally throw at it that actually kills it really quickly, so I don't believe you threw everything at it
>>587498363they also somehow keep being surprised even after the 100th time, the dumbasses

>>587498594yeah i've raged a couple of times at my pawns breaking「those things」
>>587498752This doesnt work because the slime will absolutely rip your loss gauge before it dies
>>587498496"But, what did we do! :O" they can learn to use the thing themselves.
>>587493562I remember seeing some anon's screenshots and it was a goddamn mess of bosses, several dragons or a bunch of ogres in one spot all taking turns fucking your shit up, maybe he'll show up and say which mods he was using.
>>587498827It kills the slime so it works.
The blue slimes are absorptive so as long as you carry some of this on your person, you're not left to the whims of what the dungeon provides

If there's objections I shall bake
>>587498887Dumb>>587498974A rich man doesn't spend money where he can help it, that's why he's rich and that's why I have 200 allheals
Can I feed norgan ports from alts to my main?
>>587499016I object.You said you'd bake if there were objections. So I object. Don't bake.Use a cool screenshot when you bake.

A new cycle>>587499365>>587499365>>587499365>>587499365
>>587498346wow that's fucking bullshit considering there isn't a source of poison anywhere in the first dungeon you encounter one in so you literally cannot find out through experimentation (lost rites light weight dungeon)I'm kinda pissed. would've been a cool discovery.
>>587498875>>587493562I'm not sure if I was that anon, but I did post a screenshot of getting jumped in battahl and once in vermund by a lot of those enemies. The mod that I used was "Random Encounters", but I think that's out of date now. "Dynamic Enemy Randomizer" seems to be the more modern version of that, but it seemed to cause crashes for me pre-DDA2 release and stopped the corrupted chimera from spawning in the overworld for that one quest, so I stopped using it. On top of that, I'm not sure if it even works for Dark Arisen enemies yet, and it's also "AI-assisted" if that matters to you at all.

>>587495217>>587495548>>587495653Take this with a small grain of salt but I did some basic testing and what I found is that your pawns prefer to jump on the ballistae provided you yourself are not on one otherwise they jump onto your ballista to help aim it. It also helps to use the explore command to encourage them to use them PROVIDED again that you yourself ARE NOT on a ballista. My fledgling theory for that fight is that as your job is to take aggro and dodge ice spells while your pawns do all the work.
