    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    Vitality heals are pretty useless. If you're going to "heal" do so with PA/MA buffs since it blocks CC and is basically effective HP. CC and/or big burst is king for almost all builds so setting yourself up with the ability to dictate where the NPCs are is huge. If you're running 4 players all...

    Swap to bone spider spiders they scale waaaay better. My incarnates at L15 were like 1kPA/1kMA/3kHP and hit for like 300 fully buffed when the spider comes out it's already like 1kPA/8kHP and hits for 700+ and needs no buffs. I'm over 40 hours in and just started to crack through a bit over...

    I don't ever see ads and when it launched I was out of the country traveling for a bit so it never was a blip on my radar. Looks pretty though. =O

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    Yeah but it's temporary (2 turns I think) and cost source points. I basically have to waste an entire round summon + buffing which is no bueno. The spider I swapped to has 2-3 times the stats of my buffed incarnates and requires nothing since it scales off of my summoning stat/levels as well...

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    Ok is anyone else above L15 yet? The gear stats are starting to get super high. I'm over 2k pa/ma and like 4k hp. I swapped my incarnates for bone spider and they are doing much better damage (like 2-3x as much) and have like triple the mitigation. If they keep scaling well I think I'm going to...

    Monster Hunter: World

    I've never even heard of Horizon Zero Dawn so I'll take your word on that, but I'm pretty bored of Uncharted/Tomb Raider/Infamous/GTA etc style games. I did enjoy The Last of Us but if I never played it I don't feel like I would have missed out on anything. Until Sony/Microsoft/Nintendo allow...

    Seriously. I got rid of my consoles ever since I started using steam link for when I want to get my couch gaming time in. I'm hoping DOS2 tides me until Destiny 2 gets PC launch which then tides me until this releases on PC.

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    The summons are starting to drop off pretty hard for me at L14 in Act 2 tact. I have them maxed out a 20 skill points and they are basically there to soak damage for a round while I gather up all the NPCs to reactive armor bomb on both my characters. Might respec both of my characters out of...

    It will be if you don't read. All of the those options come with a tool tip that states pretty well exactly what they do. The only thing it negates to tell you is the boosts you get or do not get based on the difficulty, but that is remedied once in game as you'll see via tool tip the perks...

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    Yeah RA is dumb damage and shields are entirely too good with their passive and bouncing shield skill. It's crazy how high they are scaling and I'm only L13. I'm basically unkillable with almost 300PA/300MA/1800 HP or so on both characters thanks to lone wolf. Running double summoner with...

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    @yerm Correct on barter. Most fights are doable regardless of class comp even on tactician difficulty they just require a bit more creativity and 3 mages leaves a lot of room to be creative. -- Fortunately I've not had any issues with quests or various bugs (aside from keybind resets) I've...

    @turbo There is a quest you can complete to have the collars removed before you leave the island. -- There is so much stuff to explore on the island. I've got like 18 hours in between my main play through and one with the gf and still haven't done or found all of the things.

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    It depends. If you're prone to using the snarky answers even just to see what happens you're going to get a lot of flak and/or fights. You can always cycle through your team of characters to talk to NPCs if you hit a point where they stop talking to you as they each have a fresh attitude...

    You don't need to kill the slugs and if you have pet pal talent they are part of a story. I think right now my two lone wolf conj sit at around 90/70 & 80/70 or so phys/magic armor from just blowing up random mobs from side quests and destroying magisters and taking their loot and finding random...

    Divinity: Original Sin 2

    Played until 3AM. I made a custom elf conj and snagged ifan and turned him into a conj and gave both the lone wolf talent. Rushed to get the L10 incarnate summon and have pretty much had my way with everything on the island so far without any issue including killing half of the fort joy...

    If you aren't a fan of turn based combat and d&d esque gaming then it's probably not for you. If you enjoy either then you will enjoy it. If you can find a copy of the original divinity enhanced edition for $20 I'd say buy it and give it a whirl. This upcoming game will be more robust...

    PC players - If I enjoyed the shit out of launch D1 (quit when first DLC came out) is D2 worth picking up based on your beta experience?

    Sunder Glad with whirling blades or leap slam for movement. Google the build it's pretty easy and fast paced with lots of bloody corpse explosions.

    RIPed at 64 to traps because I'm good at this game. I should have attempted a less gear reliant build to farm first, but I enjoyed this play through a ton and will probably stick to SSFHC here on out to keep me from mindlessly rushing through.

    I might give that a whirl after I RIP, but for now I'm dedicated with my build until bust.

    Path of Exile

    Yeah taking minute(s) to kill rares/bosses because my main skill DPS is low as fuck due to having very little currency and no luck with the RNG gods. Plus playing hardcore I have to be super safe and the longer it takes to kill something that can one shot me if I fuck up.

    Path of Exile

    I am the opposite. While it's a nice quality of life thing it also helps differentiate players who are willing to pay more attention and squeeze out the extra damage etc. I get that after your 999999999 run or whatever you want to go mindless, but at that point I'd rather just take a break than...

    My 3rd char ever and first SSFHC is about to pass my highest level HSC char and the struggle is real. Where is a solid spot to farm currency/gear at L58? My items are complete ass and starting to show with clear speed and is it possible to farm certain uniques? I really, really could use a...

    Oh that's your main auto. Highlight your sunder skill. I think mine at your level was around 9k-10k. Just go to poe.trade and look for items to get your resists to cap and +life. Should have at least a 4 link attached to your sunder, 5L is ideal.

    Path of Exile

    What level are you? That sheet DPS seems super low if you're above L25-30. And if you're playing softcore league. You can get upgrades for as low as 1 alch or chaos that will skyrocket your DPS/health/resists.

    Path of Exile

    Well the only uniques that are useful are koams/belly and they aren't even necessary per se. Just at min 5L and a couple of 4L based off of the hardcore builds into the L85+ range I've looked at. Watching nugi do a scion totem build and he's up to L92 on ssf hc, but it looks boringly safe. The...

    Been crushing with the Sunder Glad build. Cruising my way up through Act 9 currently. When I finish up act 10 I'm thinking about jumping to SSF hardcore with the same build or something slightly modified for more HP since DPS seems OK. My only hesitation is I have died twice from instagibbs and...

    Everquest - Agnarr Server: Sunset Mode

    Having free time does not equate to skill in any way shape or form. Being able to poopsock/batphone to kill your 50,000th a_mob_type etc doesn't make someone a better player in a game which requires almost zero skill to beat content as long as you are breathing and can press a button or two...

    Ok - everything totem/mine/trap/archer/scorching ray is boring me to tears regardless of the efficiency since I'm not playing hardcore yet while I learn the game and have no reason to play that safe. Can anyone recommend a melee based build that starts well from budget friendly leveling and...

    I think that is where I'm going to struggle is keeping an eye out for useful rares and/or what could be used for crafting purposes. So used to ignoring anything that isn't unique/set.

    Not sure how I totally ignored this game for so long, but I finally jumped in this weekend. Did a fire nova mine build and got to L38 - Act 4, before rerolling to try tornado shot build which is at L20 - Act 2. Is the game far more dependent on skill/support gems/passives than gear? I noticed...
