Is the wind pushing the team?
You just know Jonas is slamming beastren pusspuss on the downlow despite his turboracism
Despite being less than 13% of the population of Vernworth, Beastren commit over 50% of all violent crime.
>>587585446Smart girl!
>>587586136or is there something else...
>>587585694My aughtism won't allow me..
>>587586136*Giga guitar riff*
>>587585170This implies beastren are some sort of greater beasts. That's laughable, a beast is a beast.
>>587585694I intended to stop there too, but for some reason my no-exp thing kept turning itself off so now I'm at an awkward level.
>>587585694Stunning and brave.
is Verve worth it for a warrior? getting to rank 9 would mean i also get a lot of level ups on the way there. And warrior gains more strength than thief on level ups.
>>587587092verve adds thirty (30) strength.
>>587587152
I'm feeling dumb but what skill lets MA heal themselves?
>>587587152yeah, i'm trying to understand if i lose strength gains on the way to get that since i'd also gain more strength on level ups as warrior i think it'd be ok to switch over after level 40?
>>587587375That means no.
>Beggar's Tale>Bring clothes to the noblewoman>Out of curiosity, bring the beastren lady there, nothing happens except the storyteller is in a scared animation>Bugs out the quest. No matter how many days I rest, nothing happens, the noble acts like she doesn't know me, and the storyteller is stuck in the scared animation in front of his slum door>Try the other way around, bring both to the beastren at the bar>Fixes the quest, the ladies start fighting and eventually there's an update to visit the cat in a few days time, get the bad ending>>587585912But she has all the badges already...
>>587587384Recovery Arrow.
>>587587496Intederasting. I can't even target meself with it.
>>58758740130 strength is such a miniscule increase compared to what you get on gear+levelups it's not worth an augment slot.
>>587587401Play what you vibe with. You will hit your stat caps before level 200.
>>587587620It heals you for the same amount that you heal others, and even without a target, you get the healing effect.
>>587587620You don't have to, just fire it out, it heals. And much faster and better than any mage stuff
It was certainly unfortunate to witness Calandria getting double juggle succ'ed by Goatmen and empowering both back-to-back, but at least it made for a cool picture.Both her and Necronia are home now with hopefully a good amount of relic spoils!
The dd1 save manager seems to be broken. Can I just rawdog ctrl+c my old save folder and put it in somewhere safe to make a room for new one
i'm about to go fight the dragon aand then unmoored. anyone wants some lesser dragon kills?
>>587587656alright, thanks
>>587587761>hopefully a good amount of relic spoils!I wish this was the case that it scaled further, directly to how many fights and rancors they did, but I think it caps out at 3 a hire session
>>587587769Yes, thats what I did.
>>587587896Cheers

>>587587993Probably stay in the rift.
>>587587993I actually started over from scratch on a save where I'd gone to NG+, and my pawn from that save is somehow still hireable.
>>587589048huh...can i find my own old pawn and say hi? i remember her name, but not her level
>>587589239If you have your old pawn's ID, you certainly can. I found an old screenshot with it, typed it in, and there she was, just as I'd left her.
>>587587895Ahhh, I hoped it was tied to number of fights or days traveled together. Then I hope their rolls are just what they want!

Replaying through BBI, man, I'm glad the climbing system got improved in DD2. I keep trying to let go and walk on monsters to regain stamina, when I should really just be chugging liquid vim or mushrooms. Also forgot how much brutal the gear check and rng is in this as well.
>>587589643What's Amber doing with those pelts?
>>587588580>that>Marcille>not even Marcille's mom
>>587589413that is so sad...
Huh. Seems familiar somehow..
>>587589914Well...according to the vibe chart >>587577950 in the last thread, she might have aught of use for these belts.
>>587590365Btw, I love how you set her posture/movement pattern, she moves just like a skinny gangly person would.
>>587587761>>587589474Clearly she wanted a fairer fight. Thanks for bringing her along, I hope she was useful.
>>587590253She's the OG to me! She's been around long long before the pretender (who's clothes she stole) came to town!
>>587590525Amber, take your goddamn medicine.
>>587589413goddamn, can't find her. i'm not even sure anymore if i did a ng+ and completely changed arisen and pawn or started a new game
>>587591073My old pawn has the same face as my current Arisen, so I thought of hiring her just to do a pointing Spider-Man meme screenshot.
>>587591073If you did the latter then she's your current pawn. Doing an NG+ let's you completely change your arisen and pawn but keeps the same Pawn ID. Deleting the save and starting anew keeps your old pawn in the rift
>>587591218You mean former, not latter.
>>587590504My prediction is that this general is going to get a surge of dd1 posting next year I'm huffing hopium
Huh. Mentally I've thought Pippi's hair is on the darker side, but it's actually that she's so pale that the medium strawberry blonde looks dark.I tried making her mom-risen's hair darker and it wasn't working. So that's why.
>>587591693Pippimamma...
>>587591037"The pretender" is from correct age group at least.
Shit
>bf2 on squish thieves without survival^ 2 rancor run before they go red hp ain't fun
>>587592119I once had Death, a blemmy and two lesser demons simultaneously in a vortex. Things were hectic.
>>587592190What do you mean by survival^?
>>587592268the skill that reduces the loss gauge thing
>>587590648she is a silly stringbean
>>587592268Max available upgrade of special armor skill on relics which is absolutely must have for any melee pawn. Even ebin dodge thieves, they WILL get hit eventually.
Uh... what are they doing?
>>587591000>I hope she was usefulShe was! I've never had a pawn tackle me out of the way of attacks as many times as she did in such a short amount of time (I believe I have a clip of one of those times, but it's very late for me right now so I'll have to ready it later)
I give up. Where is the little red flag in the area with the crosshair over it?
>>587593605Under the snow.
>>587593605>He didn't just solve it by accident during a whiteout
>>587592628And by get hit eventually you mean by powder blast and blades of the pyre.
>>587593605It's near one of the building ruins, south side of the river, just a bit south west of where your cursor is if I recall correctly
>>587592190My thief main pawn has BF2 and is consistently the one in the party with the least loss gauge buildup at the end of any adventuring foray.
>>587585556>Remember not to stress out too much over something that's meant to be entertainmentI'm too guilty of this sometimes.
>>587585170>tfw
where you're looking at, Arisen?
>>587593874Thanks, it was actually already revealed but I missed it.
>>587594184Could it be you're... craving my mcpawnies?

>>587593742No I mean by any heavy attack and either go down or go down next time because they have 1/5 less hp after 1 rancor. >>587593876I'm happily informing then that it doesn't werk on someone else's machine. Here's bf2 thief no survival instinct past one blue-red rancor. Maybe if there're 2 proper tank pawns so no one ever is going to look in thief's direction or someone is running oneshot builds then sure, why would they accumulate much damage.
>>587594678Oh dear, I had a feeling you might have been talking about my pawn. I'll see what I can do about making her more survivable.
>>587594497so it doesn't get in your eyes during fights? honestly i don't even know if japanese people get curly hair
I kinda miss snowfields and whiteouts, and I wish the endgame had an area like that. Yeah, yeah, rancors can spawn there but you know what I mean
>>587594824It's gigahp + survival if you run BF. Or aggressive recovery + predominance if you don't use bf meme.

Does the whole setup for Norgan trigger anyone else's autism?What I mean is, Captain Brant gives you the "Go look into this Arisen stuff" setup as part of Disa's plot, but by the time you can feasibly actually go to Norgan, the whole Disa thing already isn't relevant anymore from a narrative perspective. In fact, it's balanced to be done after or alongside Unmoored World, which narratively makes no sense, at least the impetus. Like, at that point the world fabric has come undone and you wouldn't care to go look into some business related to Disa's schemes anymore. In fact you evacuate her alongside the others.It just makes this game's narrative and progression even more messy than it was already.
>>587594497And afros
>>587595787It's confusing and I don't even know what would be the "correct" way to progress through the base game and dlc. I'd rather have a message delivered to me about the griffin landing, than try to squeeze it into the narrative somehow

Also to those 4 based /ddg/risens who helped her finish her Evil Eye badge, and really anyone who's hired/taken screenshots of my pawns. Seeing them still have adventures in other player's worlds while I'm away is anodyne to a tired wagie's heart.

shouldnt the rift prioritize recently updated pawns? why do i get so many that have only 4 skills?
>>587595787The DLC exacerbated a lot of problems with the base game rather than fixing them. In my opinion a truly great DLC is fully integrated into the original game and they are relevant to each other. See: Artorias of The Abyss and Rogue Trader DLCsDA2 not only powercreeps everything from the base game from a mechanics perspective but also tells a story that, whilst good, is completely separate from the main game. Nothing you do in Norgan has any real bearing on what plays out in Vermund/Battahl and the meta commentary surrounding the cycle, Dragon, Arisen and the Brine. I really really expected the Brine to play a role in the DLC in some form, thought we'd go all cosmic horror.In fact, in some cases I feel it's quite bizarre how set they were on making the DLC separate from the base game in almost every way possible. DA1 had this issue to some extent but they like, quadrupled down on it here. Basically the ONLY connection is Pathman showing up for like 60 seconds of dialogue.I love DA2, I love the vibes, the atmosphere of Norgan, the characters, the snowy map, etc but they fumbled some really easy wins here. The absolute worst example of this is that even when the world literally becomes untethered from reality, the seas are in the sky and half the playable area has been destroyed by a dragon whilst the most terrible creatures roam freely about what's left Norgan is absolutely fine. There is ZERO reference to the UW in Norgan. The expedition members have nothing to say about out, aren't even aware it's happening. Too bad for Ilda, if she goes to Vernworth now she'll get eaten by a Purgener.>inb4 muh alternate worldLazy fucking copout answer, I expected better from Kinoshita.So yes, it bothers me. A lot.
>>587597585Some people set fewer skills to focus their pawns on core things they want them to do, but that's not always the case of course.
>>587597608I love him.

When I start a new dd1 save, what is the plan to prevent my pawn getting too retarded? Any tips?
>>587596750Gib name of mask plz
>>587597189'ppi...>>587597585>>587597679There's definitely a lot of not-recent pawns, it's not just the 4 gimmick. Lots of old gear and no quest.
>>587597608I thought he would be a phoenix not a cockatrice reskin
I went back to my warrior roots. Fighter is really good--nimble and efficient--but there's just something about charging through a Dullahan's roar or nailing a Lesser Demon with Tidal Wrath that I just don't get from any other vocation.
>>587598954There is no trick to it, you just elixir max when it becomes important and pick all the options at the start that say "kill the enemy" instead of "gift me a nice thing"
>>587585184LavenderpO59TAD03RECALevel 200 Sorcerer ArcanistCamping In Vermund for Elixirs, just a couple more and she will have every badge. I got 6 just the other day so thanks to those who did it, IK these quests are a pain in the ass outside of the Norgan one.
>>587598954They learn from you but you can tweak them however you want at the chair.
>>587599275>>587599378Oh yeah the elixir chugging. Thanks, I'll keep these in mind. This time I'll make Selene my wife!!!! I have a ptsd of climbing archers, but that's also true in dd2 so..
>>587599779I haven't seen a single climbing archer, lol.
>>587600025My pawns are always extra challenged for some reason.
>>587600173Fucking kek. The DD1 wiki is actually very detailed so you can just look up their inclinations and stuff and tweak them to be better, less challenged.
>>587600025Pawns go extra retarded when fighting dragons. They all want to climb dragons.
Despite playing DD1 like 4 or 5 times I've never gotten my wife Mercedes, she was just so much harder to get than anyone else so I just settled on going for Madeleine to avoid being Caxton'd like I was on my very first playthrough. That said it's been at least 7 years since I last played so I'm pretty confident I can get Mercedes now.
>>587597189

Gorechimera are funny because they were one of the strongest enemies in vanilla but in Norgan they literally crumble to a glance from someone holding a BFIV weapon.>>587600764Thank you, I am in 2 minds as to whether I should look shit up to get the outcomes I want because this has been the longest period of time throughout my entire life that I haven't played DD1 since I first experienced it and it would be about as close to blind as I can be for someone that's played so much. On the other hand I like the idea of getting the platinum and seeing everything I can that I probably missed when I was younger. On the 3rd hand the game is designed around repeating the cycle so I guess I could just go blind then do a second run where I'm a Googling Gary,>>587600861It's always the ugliest oldest guys the games have to offer...
>>587601195Arisen, you don't understand, the bestiary says you have to mount the griffin to stop it from flying instead of casting Comestion to burn its wings
>>587601202For my first DD1 playthrough I somehow managed to get... fucking Feste.
>>587601364>somehow>somehow>somehow
>>587601359DRAGONS. Didn't you read what I wrote? A griffin is not a fucking dragon.
>>587601454I was waiting for a giant Feste to come swooping down for you
>>587601478I did, they do it to other enemies as well. Take your blood pressure medication.
>>587601601Retards makes my BP go up, anon. Don't be the reason.
>>587601076Kek, damn right. It's actually starting to backfire because, even though I really enjoy her sassy plague dialogues she's getting headaches mid combat and getting hit a lot more.
>cloudfall strike lesser demon from behind whilst he's doing one of his spastic arm flail attacks at nothing>somehow teleports me in front of him into a grab and one shots me because muh battle frenzy meme weaponLegitimately made me mad, these are the worst enemies in the game.
i just found a portcrystal in a chest in a seemingly unimportant cave do they rarely spawn at random? or i'm somewhere important? i got here through a forager pawn
>>587601740It got added in the September update, it was the MTX portcrystal
>>587601740Without spoling, yes, you are somewhere important.
>>587600861fucking kek, I'm glad someone saved this and still reposts it
>>587601341Gorechimeras are actually easier because it's the goat pulling the strings and once you realize that poor thing spends more time on the ground that casting spells.
>>587601815mmmh>>587601832uh i see, maybe i should leave then
>>587601998You will be sent there much later so don't worry too much about it, just enjoy ur port crystal for now.
Which skill did you want to see upgraded and got fucking nothing? I wanted a better Mountain Breaker
>>587601725Ghouls are.
>>587602086i will. I came here looking for boltscales for my staff
>>587585590>simple, orienteerWhy!? WHY!!??? Did you make her simple... anything but simple... Have you tried having more than one simple pawn in the party? it's fucking torture...
>>587602132Playing a supporty MA is suffering when you're winding up a Harmonic Pentad and suddenly approximately thirty ghouls spawn behind you out of your line of sight and all beeline for you.
>>587602132I find them pretty cool and very atmospheric. What bugs me way more are those hopping goblins, absolute fucking nightmare
>>587585515What should I make her other than Orienteer? I have a feeling Arcanist isn't going to go down well on a Thief.
>>587601725>>587602132Barbatos are. SO fucking boring.
>>587601248Use the one you like more, there isn't that much difference. Fighter can block with shield but still loses hp gauge even if a little with survival^, warrior takes more hits but has more base hp and for them survival^ completely removes hp gauge loss unless it's from blood pact, it almost seems like a bug.

>>587602091SHIELDPUMMEL!Not only did they not give me a 3-smash pummel, they made it basically worthless since Norgan enemies basically don't have a knockdown mechanic with how stupid high their resistances are,

>>587602624MY MAN, yeah pummel shield is still relevant for base game stuff but it's worthless in Norgen, at least shield precision makes up for it.
>>587602091>Mountain BreakerI was surprised to see Mountain Breaker or Heavenward Sunder getting nothing when Fighter's anti-air skill did get an upgrade.I was hoping to see some form of Grand Frigor, maybe it could have become something closer to Gicel, which I was also hoping would be included, Chilling Embrace is cool though.Would have liked to see an enhanced version of Hindsight Slash, that is even easier to trigger perfectly, does extra hits and gives us the old backstep animation.
>>587602624>>587602750My niggas. Also I would've liked some kind upgrade to the ally launch skills even though I can't think what the effect would even be.
Satan keeps ruining my rancor fun. But I want to keep farming. Do I go Fighter x2, mage and warrior? I mean, it doesn't get better than that.
>>587599274Legit, i'm feeling the opposite right now because of all the chasing I usually have to do>last couple rancors were full of liches and jump-happy doggos>now it's Satan timeIt's getting tiresome lads
>>587602864I would have made the ally launch command based instead of a proximity thing.
>>587602091Not an upgrade, but I wanted Ingle. HOW DO THE FINGERWAGGLERS NOT HAVE THE MOST ICONIC MAGIC SPELL OF ALL TIME, A FUCKING FIREBALL
Casul here, I started a new game yesterday with a couple mods like bestiary. How the hell can I deal with inventory and equip load autism, it feels like I'm stopping every two minutes to offload shit I collect across my goons just to stay at light load. Do I just spam Go and Explore and hope they pick up everything by themselves?
>>587602269Sorry anon! It was all the dragonaids...I think she's been getting into the fruit wine too...On the plus side it seems to make her far more consistent in fights
>>587603064Pick golden bugs off trees and eat them.
>>587603064>I started a new game yesterday with a couple mods like bestiaryDid you go hard mode too? Bestiary makes the game harder and if on hard modo on top of that you might get graped.>light loadYou and your main pawn will get extra carryweight as you play (eat those golden scarabs), so just suffer for now and in time you will now what to pick up and what to leave behind.
>>587603064www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/17234th in the list.
>>587602091Top of the list deffo has to be a better Heavenward Sunder which fully made it into a shoryuken with a second landing downward strike (Cloudfall Strike style). But I guess it would've been too busted.Better Shield Pummel, being able to make a ghost clone of an enemy with Trickster so you have your clone AND an enemy clone on the battlefield, just being able to silence enemies and /or apply other status effects with Trickster somehow, something more for Warfarer and maybe a better Devout Offringe?
She cute
>>587601478This Anon has dragonsplague. Time to brine him.
>>587603285>Did you go hard mode too? Bestiary makes the game harder and if on hard modo on top of that you might get graped.I did and I'm gonna try and deal with it, I'm a Fromslopper anyway.>>587603391Thank
Did the sphinx really leave for the Bahamas before the grand showdown with Satan?>what a glorious tale Arisen you felled that dragon and yes, the sky is breaking up and everything got dark but the beach waits for no one
>>587603064You can also hire logistician pawn at first though it can be annoying in its own way.
>>587602998yeah makes sense. I wasn't even thinking about that but something silly like launching your pawn at the enemy damages the enemy or something.
>>587603685She absolutely did. Queen shit desu.
>>587603484Dorothy? She's no Alsa or Sara but she'll do.
>>587603068Such bad timing for that.. I was going to hire her and then do her and Engel's quests. But having two Simple pawns in the party is literally this.https://youtu.be/2r6UJlXCiG0?t=18
>>587557724
>>587603068>far more consistent in fightsI've been in this thread too much. I scan read "far" and "fights" as read it as "fat" and "thighs".

>>587603946Don't remember her name. Master Storyteller™'s cat wife is also cute.
>>587603685We'll see her in the tropical DLC.
What a damn good run that wasI'm not gonna lie, my pawn sacrificing herself at the end grabbed me by the gut
>>587604027kek
>>587604151I only knew it, if it is the same one, because I favourite my wives.

>>587604148He's been completely washed since Fallout 3 teebeeheich.

>>587604020Cats IRL share a braincell, so beastrens should too.
We should shave all beastren so they can more fully integrate.
>>587585874Tried to sketch her realistically but gave up on the eyes and went for a more off-model /co/ look halfway, cute brat
>>587604947
>>587604947I prefer unshaved pussy
>>587604318I know there was a mod to steal sliders from pawns but can you do it with NPCs? Alsa is no Sheva Alomar but if I ever tried to make a black girl in this CC, I would like to start from her.
>>587605001Cute!
>>587605001Very cute
>>587605001ToT
>>587601272Does she ever stop looting EVERYTHING including the entire local wildlife population?
>>587605525Simple pawn. When hiring them you accept that nothing is safe, including your cock.
>>587605645>The Arisen's cock will serve us well!
>>587602896I included mobility and skill with a long range so make things easier, that said fighting the black dog and barbatos is a bit tedious, yeah. Also I think I need something to mitigate the loss gauge because you take so much damage face tanking everything!
Can you guys recommend me some strong fighter pawns.
>>587605525Just like a real cat!
>>587605001Arisen here, thank you so much!
I gave me pawn smoke shroud because it's cool
>>587601272How can a bitch this dumb be the best mage I've ever hired?
>got Dwayne instead of HalNOOOOOOOOOO!HOW!?
>>587606251Flink, Ghislaine, Hannah, Idunn to name a few.Ghislaine might be one of my most hired pawns. She rips.Every fighter or rather every pawn posted here is usable though, I just have personal favourites. If you care enough about the game to be ITT you're probably not totally clueless and thus your pawn will be fine.
>>587606251Duke, Knight.
>>587606251>>587607343Part of why I started a second save was because I have a feeling Simple is the strongest inclination, and I want to try the Fighter stuff the DLC is so rich with.Fighter and Thief finally satisfy my DD1 pawn AI autism.

>>587601454
>>587607815>I have a feeling Simple is the strongest inclinationI've been having similar thoughts, there's often a downside to other inclination's opinionated behavior. I'm sure there are outliers like calm thief dodge tanks being better at staying alive when formless feint runs out. But a simple sorcerer for instance, in theory, would be less likely to cancel a spell to protect itself, or start climbing, or stop/slow casting to stay near you.

Thanks pathjanny.
>>587609141Lucky...
NOW I can commit reroll Everfall chest for real.But I think I'm about to have a very big, very ambulatory problem first...
>>587608086Is her arisen the Hal/Rothias-Stacy perchance?
>>587601341>Gorechimera are funny because they were one of the strongest enemies in vanillaWhich is funny because if you just carry a Mage with Solemnity, they're just a punching bag because they don't have the fast debilitation recovery the drakes and lesser dragons do.
>>587608086Not gonna lie: I swapped my Arisen from a tiger to a lion because of her aura.
>>587585515>>587594672
>>587610137Jewel-woven sandals in full display, bueno.
>>587601341Running into a gorechim in the putrid copse the first time round with level 2-3 gear with stragglers around and also a million venin harpies was pretty hardcore. I got ass whooped and had to retreat and take the long way to the sealed study
>>587609716I don't understand.Please explain in great detail.
>>587610137Sniffing ilyanabelles cooch
>>587604020we will see... maybe her temperament will calm back down eventually... she is just going through things>>587604123>fat thighsshe is stringbean not broadbean

>>587609850No>>587610001That's nice to hear
>>587610380HE'S HUGE! THAT MEANS HE HAS HUGE GUTS!...um...spam magic arrows at it until it dies?
>>587602091I'm relatively Okay with most of the Skills, but the Skills that got added to the basic kit for each vocation should have gotten their gacha bonuses baked into lvl4+ spoils without burning an slot i.e. buying Breakneck Toss at the obelisk instead of making it compete with Aggressive Recovery and upgraded Skills.
When the sex mods finally release which pawn will you be fucking first?
>>587610958
What's the best elemental enchantment for the base game?Fire?
>>587611320Ice methinks
>>587610613She is already perfect !
>>587611320Iceppi
>>587611320They're all fine. Things that are weak to fire are VERY weak to fire. Ice combos with rain, puddles/streams, and drenching arrows to freeze enemies. Lightning is generally free damage and can stun enemies if you're good at bonking them in the head.
>>587611003Flop.
>>587611003Engel
>>587611003Asmongold
>furfags
gg no re, tin can man
>we could've gotten satanachia rancor vortex as a high level dark sorcerer spell>nope fuck you no dark element fags>also the only projectile fire, ice, and holy skill all go to the magic archer >cause every vocation should feel distinct :)Im beginning to feel my inner daimon awaken with all the waste and lackluster design...
>>587602575he's been blasting all of the spells except meteoron but I think that's because there hasn't been enough space. I'm not very experienced with sorcerer pawns so I didn't know that having a deific bolt in the party likes to override all other spells.
I just had a thought, if we're getting a DD3 it's gonna be a loong time for now and that means they will be basically starting from scratch and that means more time spent on recreating goblins, cyclops and the vocations we have already played to death...Why don't they make some sort of spin-off, "light" sequel using DD2's assets? It will take less time and it will give us more fresh and experimental shit to play with, kind of like DDON was to DD1, of course that's an MMO so they had to spend a lot of time fucking with the MT engine trying to get it to work with online stuff but they didn't have to recreate every single asset from 0.
>>587612562I my experience sorcs always take 'breaks' to do those wimpy basic attacks often enough, so Deific only makes that less of a waste of time
>>587612854Turn based squad tactics Dogma
Balatro Dogma
5% Weakspot damage really isn't THAT bad...
>>587611003My own petite and demure pawn, but only after I've hired 3 of /ddg/s most beefiest high-test masculine pawns to ruin her with their superior meaty manhoods while I watch. Only when she's been completely biologically imprinted by will I offer my pathetic 3 incher to be barely touched by her before prematurely ejaculating pathetically in the presence of those superior alpha males.
>>587613191Lethality? It's actually really good.
>>587612854Dragons Dogma x Dynasty Warriors.
>>587611320Id say ice because fire damage can come from a few skills while ice basically is just from casters or ice weapons.
>>587611068I kinda got annoyed and petrified him, lol. I think I've ever done his quest.
Finally, some decent... Jesus fucking Christ.. Also, got a helmet with adventurous appetite and carnivore, lol. I wonder if it's also good for archer.
>>587612854I sure hope they won't start from scratch with the next game, that would be stoopid hyooman behavior
>>587585556how did my thief do? it's not really a serious build but a themed build focusing on thievery and being fast and fragile.
>>587613191Yeah, it's also not that good BUT there's things in the game that are specifically there to help in the beginning of the game where you still need to meet stat thresholds.
>>587607343Hey, thanks you a lot! <3 I'm glad to hear she's been performing well and kicking ass beyond the rift.
>>587614653Seeing your pawn in other people's screenshots and hearing how they perform is the best
>>587615201Which reminds me that I need to aim my screenshots better to include the /ddg/ pawns I hire
Is there a reason why Satan keep ruining my rancor runs?
>>587615717It be like that sometimes, but grow up, nothing is "ruined". Just ignore him and go to the next one. Or beat his ass and restart the Ruin-Night.
>>587615717He jellyGo play with him Arisn
>>587615201Yeah, I really love that too! Speaking of which, it's been a while since I last hired Subira, and she's already putting that holy armament to good use dealing with this fucking dog.
>>587616090I wanted to fight the dragon and get 3 or 5 orbs, then go a kill Satan on repeat. But bastard just keeps showing up to every fucking red vortex.>>587616091Kek.

I took my wife from the checkpoint town to the hotspring, hoping if I paid and went in, she'd wander in too. But she didnt. Nkw I dont know where she is. Is she probably dead?
>>587618014(Also I tired to walk in while carrying her and it made me drop her and she bled a lot. Bastards.)

>>587617574The next thing she did was throw rocks instead of casting spells. I think I'll just leave her as a fighter from now onAlso, thanks for the hires! Hope she was able to help out a bit, although I wouldn't think she'd be doing much at some of those levels I saw
>>587611003Mine
>>587615201Hehe, yeah. Mine does the opposite kek

I think I might just hold off on rancor farming for perfect pieces for a bit so I can actually focus on finishing UW stuff. If hiring, consider providing her with a brace of explosive arrows so she can set your enemies on fire, erupting shot is a fantastic skill.
>>587619904I've been leaving it off of mine, I could tell it was bad as soon as I saw the numbers behind it. Personally, I'm just running defense, magic defense, provocation, knockdown power, and loss gauge reduction. Also saw the thief one that restores health on kill suggested, but I don't know how useful that'd actually be in practice compared to the others.
>>587620410It's that shrimple.
>>587618014It'll just take her some time to make it from the volcano island camp back to the town. Just ferrystone to an inn and rest for a few days, or do some other stuff so that she won't get jumped by monsters en route. If all else fails, check the Vermund hall of the dead to see if she needs a wakestone. It is actually possible to place a Portcrystal inside the hot springs and ferrystone there while holding an NPC, but that won't increase the chances of any particular NPC being there when you pay for the hot spring session. It just causes the steam effect to hover around that NPC until the game is restarted/reloaded.
>>587602091Bartizan/fortalice so it would auto-apply on player like recovery arrow.
>>587617665>>587618468Thanks fellas
>>587620410Let me guess: she was a face 23 in full armor?
>>587620457Correction: Pawn quest is now 1 savagery extract for 5 liquid vim.
>>587620410She might have been pretty fucking boring as a hyuman.
>>587611003Arikash, Ludo and Melina
>>587620410But what about keeping your Pawn as human AND putting her in the corset?
>>587602403Guardian and orienteer are the only two specializations that never fall off.
Honestly, I'm glad my pawn hasn't been mentioned for the sex mods orgy.
>>587621171Name her or you're a coward bitch.
>>587619904I run this, but the last slot is generally a flex slot.-Impact (to push large enemies over)-Constancy (more knockdown resistance)-Provocation (when you want to be the main tank, but I currently have it on my pawn while I play DPS Fighter)-Radiance (the dark is spoopy)
>>587620410Did you post it on reddit?
>>587621585No.
>>587620410let me see that pussy, I need to verify the sauce
>>587601272Why does she get special art but Ghislaine and Ludo don't?
>>587611320Ice is probably the safest option. The biggest dangers you will face are mostly weak versus ice, which are coincidentally the enemies you will be farming the most to get good gear.
>>587621778Why does anyone get art? Because they're part of a secret club you and I are not in. We have to attack them

>the only electric spell that actually does damage is LevinBut why?
>>587622632>Allard getting his boypussi blown out by BBC (Big Beastren Cock)

As long as the Fighter has Provocation, Mettle, and Constancy, it can get by with less optimal Augments. Thew, Dominance, Apotropraism, Beatitude, Intervention, and Intrepidity are generally good for rounding out the slots. Fighters will also climb, tackle, and push, so the augments that help those are sensible even if I don't personally think they need help doing any of those things. Certain Armor Skills can make some choice redundant e.g. Snatching Beast Foil and Thew.
>>587626676Yes, but they're usually disinterested in actually putting that sexiness to use, see: top right of the chart anon made.
>>587626676I know a cute gremblo at least

>Caesar, in writing home, said of the Beastrens, " They are the most ignorant people I ever conquered. They cannot be taught music." Cicero, writing to his friend Atticus, advised him not to buy slaves from Bakbattahl, " because," said he, " they cannot be taught to read, and are the ugliest and most stupid race I ever saw." I am sorry that Mr. Rothias came from such a low origin ; but he is not to blame. I only find fault with him for making mouths at me.
>>587627291That cat is a real character let me tell you, lol.
Real talk. Why didn't we have a medusa variant in Norgan
>>587627587Why did she do it?
>>587627487I thought you left, Jonas?
>>587627683Dragonsplague makes them catos sarcastic and bratty. It can't be helped.
>>587626925Jonas, please chill out
>>587627603I don't know, maybe because the medusa is a snake like creature that like heat and Norgen is a mostly frigid landscape..? How would a Norgen medusa variant even look?
>>587627603Limited budget/time maybe. They did a recolor sphinx, but made her into an integral quest NPC instead of a true combat encounter. Although, a questgiver Medusa might've been interesting, or a variant of Medusa that can reverse petrification and slowly unfreezes different variations of enemies throughout the fight to trip you up (please ignore the amazingly detailed evil eye statue in the corner).
>>587624083kek
>>587628202And yet, saurians(nokken).
>>587627603They confined the Evil Eye to the Lost Rites too. I can only assume they just didn't have any time and budget left.

>>587628120I will not chill out until we have Made Vermund Great Again! Thank you for your attention to this matter, Your REAL mayor, BF Jonas.
I think Im gonna start a brand new save with max sized Orc arisen and pawn and send over two sets of the fistfighter rings for them so I can just fistfight everyone
>>587629043I'm thinking of changing my kots into true minheight dorf ladies when I hit NG+not sure yet though
>>587628579>They confined the Evil Eye to the Lost Rites too.At least mods can get her out of them.
>>587628358Yeah but those are rock creatures.

>>587628202Maybe.. Also now when I think about it, a snow burrowing purgener worm would have been pretty neat in the snowfields
>>587628579>They confined the Evil Eye to the Lost Rites tooSuch a waste, Evil Eye should've spawned in the Devouring Vortex too at LEAST

>>587628220I wanted them to at least try to do something with it, but possibly time/budget constraints. Too bad I was way overgeared for the basegame fight..>>587628602FUUUUCK
>>587629836Yep, plenty of beastren zombies.
>>587629507Now your speaking my language, damn right that would have been cool. When you think about it the purgener were pretty underutilized.
>>587629719Draug, pawn dialogue calls it out. Interestingly, pawns refer to it in plural, implying there used to be a whole flock of them back in development.
>no griffin zombies Hmmm
>>587629719I LOVE that guy and its silly face, but it's too squishy lol
>>587629507The snowfields are so cool, I think they were afraid players would tire of the whiteouts so it's on less than half the map and turned off during Ruin-Night. Imagine getting a whiteout in Ruin-Night while walking to the next vortex and you get invaded by Death.

>Y-you got any of dem grimoires, Arisen?Arcanists start fiending the moment they see you pick one up.
Is it worth upgrading the evil eye weapons once for the stats or just do the last rites then go to the dlc?
Norgan is so pretty.
Am I the only one who hires Engel? She has like 50 hearts and every other pawn here is well into the hundreds.
>>587633997Do her feet even have a phone?
>>587632532I feel like skirts look so awkward in this game. Maybe it's because of the manspready non-demure wide-legged stances that the female pawns use in all their animations but it just never seems to look right to me
>>587634758
His affinity keeps rising because I keep doing this.
>>587634758kek what a typo
did pawns always do this or is this part of the cartoon collab?
>>587634745>and every other pawn here is well into the hundredsHaha, yeah... my pawn is totally into the hundreds, totally over 50
>>587634723Put some shoes on slut.
>>587634778I agree but that particular skirt looks like the kind of skirt that's meant to do that (even if it's caused by the same mesh issues in the case of DD). The longer robe things just look like they're incredibly fat.
>>587634778>google image Demurejesus christ what in oblivion is that
>>587634723Don't put some shoes on, maiden.
>>587634745I don't think that's true, most of the pawns I've been hiring are in the 50s at best, some don't even have more than 30. It's just a matter of how long they've been around I imagine. Up until I started posting here again just after Halloween, Azalea had like 4.
>>587635020Wtf
>>587635356Settle down Miyazaki
>>587635240Demure just means modest or reserved. But I take it you found that fat black woman meme?
>>587634745I'll hire her give me a sec
>>587635121>>587635356Her feet, her choice.
>>587633997I'm pretty sure pawns will do literally anything the Arisen asks of them. I'm sure plenty of footjobs were given after adventures of Arisen past
>>587635020Theres a spot in Harve where they'll do that
>>587635562Her feet, my mouth.
>>587634281I need a mod to fix this.>>587634369That's fucking smart. I was just escorting her father to the capital today and used him to kill the dragon in the Cenotaph battleground. But, that's next level.
>>587634778They also flare out way too much because that's the only way they know how to fix the clipping.
>>587635619Between Ukrika's legs?
>>587634745:(
Is something wrong with me?I heard this and can only think of Subira singing it...https://youtu.be/WQ0VuBzE55k
>>587635562It's as simple as that.There we are.
>>587634778I wonder why skirts are so fucked
>>587634745>>587635427Yeah I wouldn't sweat hire numbers, most of the folks in the hundreds have pawns spanning 2 years + you have to factor in the popularity of the game over time
>>587636368>makes ass HUGE>wonders why billowy skirts are also HUGEHuh...
>>587636368The wind is pushing the skirts...
>>587634745Anon... I only started posting her here last week, and she's 999 and so gets very few random hires.Relax.
>>587636926Pawn code for the right one?
>>587636368It's the whole armor system. It's fucked. Things scale off your body proportions and they float above your character's body rather than look attached. Give a guy big arms and look how retarded the Sovreign armor looks. Its also super noticeable with capes. Sone literally just float above your characters back.
>>587636368Because they are tied to ass sliders. Fat fuck.
>>587636926My pawn is 200ish and gets ZERO random hires, it's all either from this thread or Capcom pity hires.
>>587636417Comfykino pic
>>587637164I honestly kinda love how pauldrons are tied to the shoulder size slider and how huge they become when you turn that to max
>>587585184>STEAM>Ilya>LVL 240+>Archer>Kindhearted, Orienteer>OVZRQRCB5X5Z>Active quest : Kill quest for 5 AllhealsShe's super retarded and loves to suicide herself. Please bear with her.Her stuff is also utter crap because my gacha luck is dogshit...I'm also testing skills combination, you may hire her when she has crap skills.
>>587614653NTA but I was doing a rift last night and your pawn saved my pawn from being eaten by a Blemmyae. I was out of stamina and couldn't do anything and your pawn just chucks a rock from like 40 feet away. It was pretty cool. Death spawned right after and instantly downed her but she still put in that work.
>>587636926>she's 999 and so gets very few random hiresUh? I was told that 999 was the mythical promised land where random hires would suddenly pick back up, that I would be free from the no-man's-land deadzone of 200+ and that if I could just push myself to reach the level cap that players would start to find my pawn again... No... Not like this...
>>587637258She only started getting rando hires more than like once a month after hitting 999. I guess there's not many mages at the cap? Either way it's like one every couple of days.
>>587634745Mine doesn't seem all that popular with randoms.Then again she's recently gone into the 600+ levels so she's expensive for lower levels and she's not dressed like a harlot.
>>587637252>136 kg
IDK how you guys enjoy the game at such high levels. I needed to start fresh halfway into my NG+ run because things were too easy and boring.
>>587637465No, hires did pick up at 999, but it's still not multiple per rest or someshit.See: >>587637471
>>587637258Most people finish the game well before 200 on normal mode.
>>587637580idk part of the fun for me is clawing my way up the powerlevels until i can revel in the curbstompage. live that zero-to-hero fantasy. similar reasons why i like elder scrolls. whole journey is fun and for me that includes the endgame demigod era
>>587637301The issue though is you don't need to turn them to the max to get some ridiculous scaling size. Even 10 points can be enough to make a piece of armor look fuckrd up and retarded. It's an okay idea but suffers from rushed implementation.
>>587621778I sketched the first three pawns from the previous thread but only added colors to the first, it was completely random but I do think she looks cool with her accessories. I didn't like the other sketches so I gave up on Ghislaine, been there many times now. Must get good first
>>587637580Stat growth stops around level 200. Playing on Hard and playing DLC content makes enemies a lot more sturdy. 90% of your stats come from gear anyway, level quickly becomes irrelevant.
>>587637580the last 700 levels do literally nothing bruh
>>587585184>DD2 DA>PC>Elena>127>Fighter>E6UPUEH76J5M>CalmOld pic. She has UW lost rites shit now.
Damn, I just ran over 5 beastren in my super charged oxcart.
>>587637713With the insane amount of exp you get in Norgan, I stopped my exp gain when I was roughly a third into the DLC and I don't think I started it at an unreasonably high level.
>>587637492Finally, a proper meal for a Blemmyae.
>>587637925so take a new pic then broski
>>587637316Arisen, you HAVE TO believe in her..
>>587620457>It's this retarded Arisen again
>>587637969I started Norgan at roughly 130 on an old save on normal mode and ended the content at around 185 after doing every optional quest and the main questline.
>>587638038I'd have to reload the game because I have hdr on and hdr screenshots look shit. Need to kill evil eye again first.
>>587637316Btw, thanks mates for the presents; i really appreciate! UwU
>>587638274They should only look shit on a non-HDR display.
>>587637918I still don't get what the fuck were they thinking
>>587637580I'm doing a fresh NG++ run at 999 on Hard.The trick is to not use Battle Frienzy weapons.That's it.Yeah, you'll still 1-shot basic goblins with standard T5 relic weapons, but you literally 1-2 shot them with starter gear on normal.Hard mode seems to add more spawns, makes them more aggressive, and makes them MUCH stronger.It feels about right difficulty-wise for a fun adventure romp with a bit of danger. If you want ball-busting difficulty: there are mods like Bestiary.
>>587638232What the hell man, I'm on normal mode too and started the DLC at 80ish, how was my exp gain so huge
>>587638232Instarted Norgan at 78, toggled hard mode after meeting the old lady's cats, and was 311 when I beat Red Satan the first time.
>>587638059I'll believe in her when she stops brining herself ^_^'
>>587638181The lighting made it look like she had a nose piercing.
>>587638506>>587638681I don't know why that happened, the only thing I can think of is that I only used my main pawn and hired my other pawn who was level 800+
>>587635649This. SOOO much this.
My favourite food. Mm-mmm.
>>587635562This is actually so based that I nearly shed a tear.
>>587639447I bet you doffed your fedora to it
>Jonas is slopping nowHrmm...
>>587638430I'm actually using that mod alongside Apex and others on my fresh save now. It definitely solves enemy variety and keeps me on my toes. It was definitely ball busting at the start and I needed some cheese strategies- baiting and throwing enemies into the river- at the lower levels. But I'm more powerful and comfortable now.
>>587639580It was crazy how many guys owned those trillby things when I lived in the States for awhile. I had thought the supreme gentleman thing was a jokeish stereotype to make fun of geeks, like that weeaboo thing but it turned out to be true to life. They aren't so prevalent over here, lotta baseball caps and our own regional style of hat for warding off the rain and stuff.

>>587642318Just do it as FighterYou can either Vengeful Slash or Divine Defense all of his shit
>>587642318I just buff and kill it 3 or 4 times with heavenly shot. It's not a particularly interesting fight and I'm kinda bummed out there isn't an actual way to destroy it for good, or fight it's true true form.
>>587642318This but with the Fallen Dragon, I really don't like doing devouring rancors but most of the non-BF weapons come from there. Red Satanachia isn't as annoying once you identify his patterns, just a bit too repetitive.

>>587642945>grannyHave you seen big naturals before or only silicon fakes?
>>587642318Yeah, the fight kind of sucks, I just went full cheese and one-shot him as Archer until the ring was fully upgraded, it didn't feel very good but at least it's "over"
>>587642827Are you playing with TAA off? It looks so grainy and sharp.
>>587643198I did the reversal/benevolence warrior thing and just laughed as I cut him down with impunity while chugging allheals because holy fuck that loss guage mechanic breaks benevolence when you go below 50%.
>>587643365I'll have to double check.
>>587643080Yes. But it's also the white hair and overly floppy physics..
>>587643685What color maine should a white cat have?
>>587634745i already have a mage on my second save
>>587643685>overly floppy physicsAnon... that's a lot more rigid than reality...Boobs, especially big ones, move a lot...
>>587643487Yeah the meme ring combo only keeps you alive if your max health, minus loss gauge, stays above 4k. So as soon as you start using blood pact (or even just random shit like getting poisoned) then you can get bled out by reversal
>>587644461He needs to see more of them released from the bra...
>>587642827they should be at least 3 times bigger
>>587644461>>587644616But they're not released, they're in a corset. And they move in a weird, unrealistic way that looks like they have no mass. And despite being clothed they're not interacting with each other, they just flap around like two socks nailed to a fence in high winds. And as for the mane, it doesnt matter. Having a white haired humanoid makes them look like a geriatric.
Is my Pawn okay?The entrance requisites to the ...Embersand Mine? Lost Rites are kind of confusing. I can't have boons/pacts or grimoires, and no enchantend weapons. No Diefic Bolt either I assume, but casters in general are allowed?
Mmmm geriatric floppy windsock tits...

>>587646318I've tried the running tackle on my Pawns to unfreeze them from giant's breath the way they'll do it for me, but it never works. Is there a special input, or is just dash+grab?
>>587646726Dash, JUMP, and grab.
>>587646726jump grab
>>587646967>>587646995That's the rolling one though isn't it? I'm pretty sure anon is talking about the spear tackle
>>587646995Jump grab without the dash just tackles them to the ground where they stand, doesn't roll out of the way.>>587647043Spear tackle?
>>587646967I see, thanks
>>587646967>>587646995The rolling grab is so violent like what you do to apprehend a criminal, the Arisen always looks ready to beat they ass when he does that to a pawn
>>587634745the lion's share of my pawn's likes/hearts came from the initial rush from the base game, and mainly because I had a stint where my pawn was a support mage. In 2Dark2Arisen, I think there have been only a net increase of 80 or so likes/hearts. 50-100 likes/hearts for a pawn made in the pre-Dark Arisen times is reasonable. I try to hire the pawns with lower numbers as much as I can, but it's surprisingly tricky to do return hires along with 5+ additional pawns.>>587637471I suspect that most of the endgame grinders are already at level 999. I did a brief check of pawns at that level, and most of them have good gear sets and pawn quests relevant to Norgan.
>>587647043Is the Spear Tackle the one pawns do to the Arisen? I think only pawns can do that.>>587647209That grab is really meant for pinning foes in place and attacking them, I wish we had a more gentle grab for pawns.
>>587647267Haha, yeah... my 50-heart pawn totally wasn't made in 2024... and most of those 50 hearts totally didn't come from thread hires...

Amara looks like she knows something we don't
>>587647994I only found out today that you can get at least 3 of them stuck on you.
It's hot as hell in here.https://youtu.be/eyaLoaUbExk?t=177
>>587648134She looks like she's starting to suspect that you may not own an air fryer
>>587648154I doubt Jewel-vowen sandals are flame-retardant, so you're fucked.
>>587647627That's still a reasonable amount for the base game. If you started a few months or later after release, most of the non-hardcore players already finished the game and the game's bad review score likely curtailed any post-launch hiring rushes. I saw quite a few higher level pawns with sub-10 likes/hearts when I picked DD2 up again in the months leading up to the DA2 launch.
>>587648154Your arisen looks so different without any mods...
>>587638181Just let her snipe a Draug or two. It'll improve her mood immensely.
>>587637814Your sketches are already better than all the other drawfags.
>>587648663What gear pieces are those? Love the Doppelsöldner/Landsknecht vibe.
>>587648651What do they look like?
>>587637814>that ghislaine thumbnailMay we see?

He learned to love the bomb
>>587649823The skeleton is gonna get cooties
>>587649185Wardancer's Hat, Soaring Surcoat, and Dapper Chauses. Add cloak to taste.Some other equipment combos that I've experimented with in the past involve some of the plate chests and legs (Melorian Plate/Guardian Plate) with the Dapper Chauses. Creedbound Armor with certain side-worn cloaks also gets rid of the bulky chestpiece to reveal a smaller surcoat/pattern on top of a more dapper looking tunic, which pairs well with some of the fancier but more understated plate legs like the Darkmetal Greaves, Guardian Legplates, andTwo-tone Chausses for a more armored look. Fleetstride Cuisses is also nice if you want a specific style with the armored look. I've seen some Arisen here and there also playing around with this style when hiring their pawns, and I think it's a nice-looking yet grounded aesthetic alternative to knight/berserker mode.
>You can one tab every part of the dragon undead dragon with heavenly shotJeez.
>>587650375Awesome, thanks! I've been thinking of starting a new save with a warrior character who leans heavily into that kind of aesthetic.
>>587650429You can't one tap the head at the start because he goes into the scripted nuke first.
>>587650548Still, it makes the fight go down much faster, lol.
Die stanshit, die!
Okay, tired of babysitting pawns as MA, should I go full Archerisen for Heavenly Shot memes and Satan Sr. farming?
>>587651742babysit them with trickster!
>>587651734... did her dagger glamour revert somehow? I'm pretty sure I reskinned those to non-glowy ones.Neat screenshot!
>>587585184DD2PC>1HYL7TP554M4>Krimhilde>Warrior>202>straightforward>guardianDid some run, now decked with some more optimized/powerful gear; granted that I was heavily carried by some pawns from ddg for some encounter I'm not sure how good she is. Got an aggro ring, augment, and equipment skill
>>587651941Thanks! That's how the daggers were when I hired her.
>>587585184>System (PC, Console etc.)PC>Pawn NameAka>Pawn Level444>Pawn VocationWarrior>Pawn IDCNQX024TROGI>Optional Info (Boons, Inclinations, etc.)Straightforward inclination, she's also an Orienteer.Take her camping in Norgan and receive 5 Allheals.Feel free to add me on Steam if she's too high level. Thanks for the Medusa kills the other day, that badge was finished so quickly that at first I thought Capcom pawns had done it
>>587637431That's awesome! It makes me really happy knowing she's been able to help other pawns in situations like that. She tends to draw a lot of aggro, so sometimes she's the one who ends up getting grabbed by a Blemmyae. Glad she got to be the hero in your world for once! Also, good to know rocks work too, lol.
>>587651273I quite agree
Mountain breaker or heavenward sunder?
>>587652243Must've caught her when I was futzing around with finding ones that better suited her. Thanks for hiring her, I do hope she's been pulling her weight!
I shan't level restrict myself.
>>587653138
>>587652867I did for a while but I missed seeing big XP numbers when getting kills so I stopped capping myself.
>>587653216
>>587652867Same. I do restrict/delevel my pawns so they're usable by randoms, at least randoms on hardmode
>>587652521Heavenward sunder. It's still by and large the bread and butter of the warrior's toolkit, only rivaled by Titanic Cleave.
>>587653378For real? but mountain breaker is a direct fuck you hit that also does damage coming down. How is heavenward better?
>hire thief pawn>in stunning reversal of usual pawn behavior, it refuses to climb big enemies, just stabbing at their ankles instead>pick up pawn>throw pawn at monster's face>it works, it clings to the face and starts going ham>do it repeatedlyI do wonder if he got back to his master and started going, "... toss meh"
>>587653771Oh how I suffered at the hands of the Arisen.
>>587653327W00T!
>>587653327
>>587653771reminds me of the video where the person gets the cat to attack the shiba
>>587654260Why would you make a cat attack a shiba inu
>>587653521Mostly because it's much easier to hit targets with it, Mountain Breaker has a much smaller area to hit with, and it comes out at a very specific angle. But if you're able to thread the needle, it could be very effective.
>>587654221
>>587654216>>587654221
>>587651742And what kind of skills/buffs should I even look for on bows?
>>587652610She has! Often to the point where I don't get to play Trickster as everything dies to quickly
>>587654405I guess so, Mountain breaker has a pretty long recovery time but I feel it has a lot more knockdown power.
>>587654695If going for max deeps, battle frenzy, critical shot, and your choice for tier 3 skills
>>587633891The Sphinx recognizes our love!
Looks like she loves me now.Just happened after i switched her personality from kindhearted to calm.... Makes you wonder...
>>587654695It depends on how much fun you want to have, just general play? Battle Frenzy has high as it can go, Critical Shot and Corkscrew Arrow, Myriad Shot for MUH DPS.If you want to one shot Satan-sama you will need more stuff, you need Gigantus Vim+ and 1 or 2 Stamina IIIs on your armor somewhere. You will need 2 rings of predominance or 1 ring of predominance and 1 ring of demonbane.You will need an Orienteer Pawn that can buff your Aged Beast Steaks and then you use a Savagery Extract.Then during the fight, charge up Heavenly Shot until it consumes all your stamina, then go into your inventory and consume enough Stamina curatives until your Stamina is full, now unpause and shoot at Satan's head, it will die in one shot.
>>587585184>DD2>PC>Enkhtuya>59>Archer>O00S10XNFTVL>LogisticianCookie cutter archer augments and skills, she should work well for vanilla late game (the gear she has forged norgan transfered on this save, mainly to get that steppe archer aesthetic).
>>587655467Giving her a haircut would probably have had the same effect, it's all about interacting with and pampering your pawn.
>>587656614SPA DLC WHEN
>>587577950this made me laugh so much at work kek
>>587640212Nice but it would be better without the slop unironically, post more
>>587657074kek
>just found out verve only adds 30 strengthI have been bamboozled. I thought it was working like DD1 and added a big percentage amount and didn't ever check.What other augments sound good but actually suck?
>>587657074Is my pawn being in the "Fucks, knows what sex is" section a good thing?
>>587657074
>>587657803Honestly, all the sections can be argued to be good things for different reasons, for different characters.
>>587657074>pawn isn't in itah well thats what I get for only posting every couple threads
>>587657803Considering you pawn will likely be fucking your Arisen, maybe?
>>587657074That should be the next thread's OP pic
>>587657826Sweet cinnamon roll is too good for this world, too pure.
>>587657074my pawn is there but i dunno if the happiness of those who were included outweights the emptiness of those not includedit's like middle school yearbook popularity stuffstill nice of the anon to make it
>>587658058You really get fucked out of many hires and possible OC/fanart if you don't post your pawn religiously, I know my pawn would be at 400+ hearts and with 2-3 illustrations if only I posted her everyday but I'm a lazy nigger. This "posting everyday" includes 2024 and the /vm/ 2025 exile saga btw.
Why is my Archer's chest glowing like an Arisen's?
>>587659038Free will.
>the woman elf and dwarf guy couple in DD2absolutely disgusting
>>587658671/vm/ was easy to keep on top of posting as the threads lasted a fair bit due to the speed of the board>>587658668its not a big deal I'd rather have good, quality shitposts then not
>>587659038benediction
>>587657074Bunch of lies and slander.
>>587599334
>>587657803>fucks and knows = either a chad or a whore (or a manwhore)>doesn't fuck, but knows = either has better things to do, or they're just a loser with basic biology education>fucks and doesn't know = realistically either very innocent or a dumbass, but are apparently in demand (some of the pawns here are undead, so they're in a third category). More than likely classified as rape by some >double negative = either very innocent/dumb, but not in demand, or they're an uninformed loser
>>587659338Ok, that makes sense since that was the first time a mage used it on the party.
>>587659492>"Fucking pawns appropriating my culture"
>>587659630Or it could be a different definition of "fucks" for some of them, like fucks and doesn't know is just an absolute beast of a battle autist
>>587657803yes if you love your pawn
>>587658671I had initially wanted to draw every pawn that posted to the anchor circa late 2024, but now that there are multiple save slots there are too many pawns. If a pawn inspires me to draw, I draw. Maybe you'll get lucky one day.
>>587659925not knowing what sex is because of autism would qualify as innocence
>>587660360Okay but that doesn't invalidate what I said
>>587660182Cute
I would never post my pawn, she's a maiden and not for the likes of you.
>>587658671I'm kind of surprised that my pawn made it to that post, I'm normally one of the background people that just post screenshots every now and then.>lazyI'd argue that it's less laziness and more about really wanting to keep interacting with /ddg/. Posting regularly about the game/pawn in 2025 and keeping up with return hires for so long sounds like a real chore, even taking into account how much I like the series and community. But even so, I still only really get a lot of consistent hires from a small handful of players. I suspect it might've been different if my pawn was a support mage, but I've also seen some pretty solid support mages who look fine hanging around in the sub-30 range.
>>587660794>I'm kind of surprised that my pawn made it to that post, I'm normally one of the background people that just post screenshots every now and then.Same, and I don't even really post screenshots
>>587637814I think you might've been the drawanon that asked to pick 3 human pawns from the anchor 2(?) threads ago, sorry I left ye hanging went to kip right after. Sick art as always.
Does your main Pawn just constantly get reinfected with Draids as you play in UM?I JUST cured her like two Lost Rites ago
>>587661193yes
>>587661193Pretty much, yeah. It'll hang around so long as you're in UW, you have to play through the entirety of it to guarantee it won't come back.
>>587661275>>587661368Well damn. Thanks
I frankly just don't like beastren. What's next? Playable dogs!? Come on now, it's just silly and dosen't belong in the setting.
>>587661193If you cure it in Norgan, the moment you return to UW they get reinfected.
>>587661602Beastren have been in concept art since DD1 Jonas.
>Farming red stan and devouring rancor for hoursTFW your pawn's stuff is better than your arisen's
>>587661916Some developers missplaced yiff drawings don't count.
>>587661193Yes. UW will automatically give your pawn the coof. The more days you pass in UW by resting the more frequent it becomes.
>Got brine on my sword from an evil eye rollIt any good?
>>587653378Heavensward if you're stacking charge reduction (Swift Strike, Wicked Knight, Blood Pact) and Titanic Cleave if you're not.Mountain Breaker's recovery time is absolutely abysmal given the mobility of most things in Norgan.
Dude Embersand Mine is filtering me. I can't fucking figure out how to get to B3F or the NE part of B2F>>587661882That explains it>>587662181Wait what. Evil Eye roll? Norgan?
>>587663149Evil eye. I'm not in the dlc yet. I wanted to get all the weapons so I got an upgrade roll.
>>587663307>an upgrade roll.A what?
>>587663448You can change the enchants on one of those weapons by killing an evil eye and basically smearing its blood on it. It's not really an upgrade, it's just a reroll from a fixed pool.
>>587632529You and your main pawn only run hard mode on a fresh file
>>587663448There are special weapons you get from the seafloor sepulcher that have the ability to absorb the power of the Evil eye, they work just like Norgen weapons but Pre Norgen, but the buffs are random, you can reroll by kill and absorbing the power of the evil eye again.
>>587663448The UW rite dungeons give you a unique weapon that can be upgraded through the base game upgrade system and it has the norgan style relic bonus. Everytime you kill an evil eye with it, the weapons stats and bonuses get rolled like a relic weapon in norgan. With the right rolls it can surpass even a lvl5 norgan weapon
>>587663448ephemeral key weapons can absorb an evil eye corpse to roll 4 slots like norgan gear. Doesn't seem to roll battle frenzy, or elements though
>>587663627>>587663690>>587663716No shit?Damn somehow I missed all this.
Relics are 100x more cancerous than cursed BBI items. I hate this shit.
>>587663803>ephemeral keyI don't think I've even found one of thise despite doing allthe LRs except Embersand and Wyrmsblood
>>587663959It's in the sea floor sepulchre in the UW.
>>587664089Huh. Thanks
>>587663837It's basically the same system as in Norgan except instead of getting a bunch of copies of the same weapon with different stats you reroll the one weapon you already have.
>>587663149Is that the one with the lich and a dead cyclops?
>>587664273>you reroll the one weapon you already have.Could be a real monkey's paw thereGuess I need to look up which dungeons have which weapons, grab the ephemeral key thing, and then figure out what dungeon has the fastest Evil Eye route
>>587663860Stop chasing BFIV+. You have plenty of useable items.
>>587663860I wouldn't mind the system at all of 2 was actually as fun to play as 1 was
>>587664486It's the one in Battahl with all the glymmercole. I figured it out though; the eastern room on B1 has three holes you can drop down into. Shit's so dark I was walking past the third one over and over
>>587651538Me when I
>>587664497>Guess I need to look up which dungeons have which weaponsThe weapons are all in the same dungeon along with the key. It's one weapon per vocation and you use the key to open the chest that it is in.Everytime the dungeon resets you can get another key but you can just hire a pawn that is giving it as a reward.
>>587665107Is it a List Rite or what? I don't understand how I missed all this. Japanese game DLCs tend to be obtuse as fuck, but Jesus Christ>you can just hire a pawn that is giving it as a rewardWish there was a fucking way to filter pawns by pawnquest reward
>>587660182Flinking so hard rn
>>587660963I'm pretty sure that's just anon's all recent hires/favorites and he decided to make a shitpost.
>>587663837They are exclusive to the unmoored world lost rites.
>>587665479Yes it should be in the seafloor sepulcher in the UW.If you need the keys I can set up my pawn quest to give it to you.
>>587657803it means your pawn is promiscuous and you are getting NTR'd.But it's in a casual, hookup way so you're not getting emotionally cheated on at least
>>587663860It wouldn't be so annoying if there was a way to get more favorable rolls.
Anon! I should have expected you may yet linger here
>>587642223>Likely won't be playing every day anymore. Too much dogma.Yeah.. Been mostly lurking, riftposting and taking screens recently, but the last thing I'd want is a burnout from Dogma.
>>587665818Well I've definitley done that dungeon, so I have to have the key or at least one of the weapons already... I'll check my storage when I'm out of EmbersandAppreciate the offer, but I'm on PS5
>>587665919Each special property/skill should've been tied to schematic scrolls you find across Norgan, and then you bring them to the smith in the village and he can now put that special skill on any of your weapons. Instead of getting a billion copies of the same weapon, you only need to keep one with fixed stats and then you can pop in any special skill you want from the ones you obtained already.And then let you dragonforge them, not only increase stats but also get the ^ bonus on one of your special skills on the weapon each time.
Shall I bake?
>>587666280That would have been better, but it wouldn't hook you the same way. It would have been better still because god knows this gacha shit is fucking retarded.
Guerco Cavern has a duospear in a chest. I never knew it was there and I preordered the game.The Fool's Prize. Kinda cool, just a melee staff without the blades of the normal duospears. Too bad Mystic Spearhand is only fun for a few minutes.
>>587666437Yeah, use this pic or >>587657074
>>587666479It would be so much more satisfying. It doesn't even have to be dragon killing only. Imagine you go around hunting a certain enemy type for each special skill to upgrade it. It goes from I to II to III and so on, until it's IV^. Like say to upgrade the Spectral Feint on your armor you have to get kills on the wraith wolf thing. This would also encourage you to explore the map and hunt down specific monsters instead of farming vortexes.
Does anyone have the full set from the gagana nest? If it looks like shit then I won't even bother getting it.
A new cycle begins>>587666974>>587666974>>587666974>>587666974
>>587666831Looks like this, never got the parka, just the headband. Basically a Monster Hunter 2 fit. I personally love it but it's very anti-Vermund.
>>587667215please tell me it's not RNG.
>>587667438It's not BUT you need to get the green acid vomit fire breath from the Gagana on the frozen crystal chests and it's messy as fuck.
