    Yea trickery spec is complete trash for a game like this, anyone planning on actually using Shadowheart needs to respec her immediately so she has useful domain spells. War is pretty decent if you need another fatter front like type, storms and nature can also be pretty good.

    What interaction am I missing that is preventing mage armor from working on barbarians?

    Sadly berserker is just way too busted to do anything but that I don't think. Bonus action to pick up and throw the corpses of your enemies at people is just the best. Or if you're actually struggling in fights just have her carry explosive barrels in her inventory and throw those like tactical...

    If you nerds are having problems with melee range may I introduce to you to your lord and savior: Athletics Jump is so beyond busted in this game. It's not capped by your actual movement amount, and just scales infinitely with strength/base movement/other mods like athletics. My gith chick can...

    This is a weird clash between it being a Larian/Divinity game but also using the 5e DND rules. This kinda shit you're doing was just how played Divinity 1/2 because the game was built with it in mind and monster power was such that there were multiple points where you needed these huge salvos...

    Dark and Darker

    I'm sure their servers are turbo fucked, that's to be expected given the weird hype train around the game. The more concerning aspect for me is it's immediately devolved in a pretty sketch looking in-game store system. Buy the game, still have to pay more money to unlock classes, various...

    I'm level 9 now and most of the way done with the cursed land and I haven't seen any actual weapons that make me go 'wow I need to respec to use this', so I'm not sure I'd rate two-weapon fighting especially high. The difference of getting d8s over d6 on shortsword seems super negligible for an...

    I'm really not feeling warlock in general honestly. The game encourages such frequent long rests that I find the wizard guy to be way more valuable with huge entire spellbook being available for swapping for weird niche situations like needing a fly or grease or whatever, and with his recharge...

    Hold person is very situational, but extremely powerful when it's the right time for it. Trying to spam hold person in the Gith stronghold for example is gonna be a bad time. I think the two most busted things I've stumbled in to far are are the Thief subclass giving you an extra action, and...

    Yea if you like Karlach as an NPC do yourself a favor and go respec her out of shitty animal rage and in to berserker immediately. They gigabuffed how frenzy works and how it builds its fatigue stacks or whatever and she can absolutely obliterate big single targets with it

    Starting to get real worried about my save. ~30 hours in now with maybe a half dozen of that afk/alt+tab time and my Halsin quest refuses to change, and now two of my companions just have permanent ! above their head but have no dialogue available besides leave/join my party.

    Near as I can tell if you take a level of rogue you can just use Dex as your primary for almost any class as long as you keep the right weapon type

    The only problem with this game is the 5e rules. Everything else is 10/10 so far, but it really feels like 5e is a huge step backwards in terms of complexity and dynamic combat options from Divinity 2.

    First 5 hours or so early musings: The AI is deathly afraid of the grease spell. They literally will do anything but step in it, it's fucking hilarious. Jump is super fucking OP and is closer to teleporting than it is jumping. Anyone with like 15str can make some pretty insane leaps to...

    I started on tactician, then it took me an hour to clear the first bandit fight in those ruins cause I only had 3 party members heh. I'll give tactician another try at level 5 or so once classes actually have some tools.

    Is this gonna be the same issue as Divinity where making a custom character cucks you on a ton of sidequests/story content because you didn't use one of the pre-made PCs and thus miss all their stuff?
