I think there's gonna be more stress test weekends before the release no? Just get in one of these, they're mass inviting so you're likely to be able to test the game, then you can see if you like it or not. It's not like it'll be gone if you don't preorder now.

Well I forgot what the DW GM bonus is, but iirc it wasn't that good, it's not like GM Two handed which is really strong so you'd always want it if possible(which sadly means you can only play barb, which severely limits your weapon options). It's weird they went with some of the choices they...

Yeah well it's earth and light but often make the mistake and I'm sure others do too. I'd still take Bladedancer over Ranger, I've done Ranger with the same idea of being able to master earth, but I didn't even bother putting more than 1point, I leveled dodge instead(which arguably wasn't...

Story of FFXIII and FFXIII-2 told in 16bit format. Looks cool but makes no fucking sense. Oh well.

In a F2P game I can see it but cutting content(not just cosmetics) in a B2P+sub game and making it exclusive to CE is like, wow. Might be unlockable ingame I guess they'll say in a couple of days when I'm sure their forums are spammed with people bitching about it and it makes the news at Kotaku...

The elementals guard content for later, there's no reason to kill them, you can't open the doors behind them anyway. This will happen a lot in act2, if you run into mobs that just straight up rape you, they're simply part of later content so you'll have to come back later.

As I said, it only does that if there's nothing blocking it, as in, no monster in melee range. You have to cast it while mobs are still running towards you, otherwise yeah you cast it under them and you kill yourself. Just try it in town or whatever, cast it and you'll see it casts one tile...

Got my Runepriests promotion, game just got a ton easier. First they don't get resisted as much now they're GM fire, so that's really good, and they're also hitting a lot harder as expected. The GM Fire spell is ok, kinda, it's basically like sparks but obviously a ton stronger, it crits for...

Yeah it's a common block, it's poorly made to be honest. On the top floor of the castle, there's a door that opened in the north east corner, Lev is there with a griffin and can take you to the elemental forge. Once you've done that the way opens to seahaven act2. To be honest he should be on...

Fuck can't figure out which tea I'm missing, anyone remembers where to get all 5? Spoiler for the ones I have: Found the druid guy, was where I was expecting him. Turns out the quest is retarded, talk to a guy and come back, yay done. Going to check the runepriest quest too but not having...

Never noticed clues, it's just 4 tiles, you walk on them if they don't stay lit up it's not the right one, takes like 20seconds to figure out the order with so few combinations. Got to Karthal on my 4mages setup(god fuck the human mages enemies with their 75air resist and 50 everything else)...

The caravan just outside of town(well a bit further to the north), there's a trainer for like earth/fire/prime in it.

So tried to run to the crag at 13 to learn master water/earth/air, but I guess resists are based on level to prevent mages from being able to kill high lvl shit as easily, so it's basically impossible at this point, can't kill a dreamweaver cause half the spells are resisted and he heals, even...

You won't miss once you have enough weapon skills, and perception only adds 1point vs 2% dmg for might so I really don't like it. I'd recommend doing the trek to The Crag as soon as you clear a few mobs in the forest to get a couple of levels and train master Dagger. If you're using swords then...

I went that with my first 4mages group but I don't think the shaman adds anything, so my new 4mage setup is runepriest x2, druid, freemage. If spells weren't so expensive, I'd probably drop the freemage but really need that ID and secret detection to save at least that. Druid is great for...

Think it depends on the group, I'd say as soon as like 10-12 would probably be possible, but you'd need a fairly optimized group. I'm thinking 2 healers probably runepriests with shields+medium armor so you can keep healing while you're drinking pots, then 2 DPS that don't die easily, say, 2...

Can't target shit out of melee range. I don't remember them healing stuff that wasn't on the same tile though. I also had Purge so I didn't care too much but rarely had to use it other than elite earth elems.

Early game for the bosses that have vindictive buff(like both of these), unequip your offhand. You're missing most of the time anyway but misses add a strike to their attacks so it's not worth it. Especially if you have expert dagger, it's 2 misses per attack. And yeah I actually googled it...

I did den first on my first group, because it felt "side questy", and I like to complete all side quests before doing main quest. And yeah it's kinda easier but on my mage group I went lighthouse first cause I wanted to have the secret finding hireling with me while doing it(there's like...

Ah interesting I hadn't noticed. I mean my first playthrough was on normal cause I wasn't sure what to expect in difficulty(I hate selecting a high difficulty then having the game having retarded spikes making it annoying to play), but I've been playing on warrior with my 4mages and 4fighters...

Yeah no it's that, 7 to expert, 15 to master and 25 to grandmaster. There's no +1pt or whatever, unlock the next tier doesn't add a level, it just gives you the passive stuff from it. You can get more than 25 with gear though. And warrior only changes gold stuff right? Game seems to be...

You need all the obelisks before you're able to find the relic, so yeah not for now, much later, need blessing of air to get one of the obelisks. On your crusader question, I used heavy and shield yeah. I had 1shield 1heavy for a fairly long time. First max sword, and by that I mean basically...

Well if you're starting the last dungeon, it's fairly long, I think it's the largest in the game, it has a good mix of puzzles and hard fights, multiple bosses and shit like that, really cool dungeon. Oh and you better have a light spell cause can't see shit in there half the time, but that's...

Yep great game and considering the much lower price tag(25bucks) you'd expect either an unpolished turd or a very short game, but it's really neither, I haven't encountered bugs other than engine quirks(sometimes rendering low res shit and sound reverb issues in some caves) and I think it took...

No.

I finished the game yesterday. Act 3 ends when you find the GM dagger guy ^^. It's not really that long though but I also spent a long amount of times on it cause it's the act where you are able to complete most content so you do a lot of side shit. Vague not too spoilerific description of the...

Yeah really strong. I think you can't go wrong with a freemage, druid or runepriest as your main mage/healer type. Only orcs seem vastly inferior overall, the passive seems completely worthless since it comes so late at which point you'd have infinite mana pots anyway, if it was like a racial...

I don't think I've ever seen a heal crit, but I guess I don't have much/any crit anyway since I didn't level magic focus. Fire elemental boss was kinda rough but not so much, I just had the paladin spot healing with Heal Group every now and then and the freemage doing Regeneration/Celestial...

You want 1pt bow, not more, just so you can fire arrows at shit when you don't want to waste mana, happens sometimes. Don't even need it really but it's something and is quite helpful for the spider cave if you have a bunch of characters with bow/crossbows(have to buy a bunch at the shop...

Can't do spears on crusaders, you meant sword I guess? What you take at the start has very little impact regardless, kinda want one guy with 1pt earth magic so you can spend all your starting gold+what you find in the chests in town to buy Remove Poison spell for the spider dungeon, but as soon...

Go to 3rd floor, in the northeast corner there's a room that opened when you finished the dungeon that's not obvious at all. There's a gryphon rider guy(the one that interupted the discussion with Jon Morgan), talk to him to go investigate the Elemental Forge stuff he was talking about. Once...

Yeah basically whenever you level just put 1 point in a weapon skill and you can use them(well the earlier ones, eventually a lot of the weapons require expert in the skill to use but if it's for mage shit it doesn't matter). The mage specific weapons(orbs and staves, magic focus is the name of...

Hmm apparently you can fuck yourself and block progress on the fire shard room. If you activate the things in the wrong order, you can't complete the puzzle. Only solutions seems to be reload an earlier save, thankfully I hadn't erased my autosave upon zoning in since I hadn't saved other than...

I have both a DW and a 2H in my group. My DW is a ranger, DW dagger, my 2H is actually a merc, because I wanted 2H sword. Reason for that is because the merc bonus when you upgrade is that everytime they strike an enemy at full health, they can't be dodged/blocked and always crit. If you crit...

Oh right there's that but yeah it's not something you activate, you just kinda end up there later on, saves you some travelling. Progressed quite a bit, went to the crag and karthal both and checked all the vendors there as well as noted down all the trainers I found on the way, still have a...

They buffed him a lot I read, I just don't see how you would kill it before like level 15 or so, he cleaves the entire group for 70-80 pretty often and sometimes stun too. I was 17 and it was a tough fight. Not sure what bookshelf you mean exactly. There's quite a few secrets in there. Btw...

He's just there to come back and kill later and collect your sweet lvl 5 loot. At least there was 2 all resist potions too for me so it wasn't a waste. I went there at lvl 17 cause it was close and I wanted to test dagger damage see if I should replace my dagger of relentlessness(+1 attack per...

Well some of the grandmasters being accessible earlier is alright, but yeah it lacks consistency. Like I believe you can get GM axe as soon as you get access to act2 area, cause expert is in the first town iirc, master is in seahaven and grandmaster is right outside seahaven. And yeah for magic...

Well I made the party to check it out after posting, on hard mode or whatever. Money is really the big issue, and yeah resting non stop early on, but it's been going alright. Basically in the spider dungeon you only have enough mana to kill 2 spiders, so when there's the boss or the pack with...

On the cleric update, VG had multiple spec for the cleric too, and one of them had melee attacks so I expect it to be similar, not like the disciple(well not entirely, the melee cleric also had "hit shit and heal everything around" kind of moves iirc). The caster cleric might be similar to blood...
