There's quite a few types of builds that I noticed really don't start getting item support until act3 unfortunately, and those gloves are damn near the end of the game basically. It kinda felt like a sudden deluge of really strong monk/melee specific items hit me in the middle of act3, which I...

Messing with nu-chiefta some in PoB and and it's looking pretty bad, at least for any kind of strike/slam setup. As much as I like the idea of the massive screen clear that having a 7-link molten strike would provide the damage just isn't there. I think the actual way you play it is just go...

Boy does this game really want me to respec Lae to a monk:

It gets way better with one of the various items that adds stat bonuses to offhand etc. I wouldn't do it until way later on though when you have the ability to stack two weapons with improved crit on them - I could see dual wield spam working out okay at that point once you reduce your crit to...

Cannot for the life of me find another fey flower/fey flower essence to make a , and the one I did get is lost to the ages someplace. Checked every vendor in act3 that I can find, no one in the party has it, not in the stash etc, so I guess the end result of this is just gonna be

Anyone in chapter 3 happen to stumble across a merchant or spawn for fey flowers? I accidentally sold my fucking

I had a few crashes using Vulkan but 0 issues so far on DX11, outside some weird soft locks with combat/the UI occasionally

The underdark is part of act1 so clear that first. There's a point down there that leads to act 2 in a similar fashion and it'll give you the same warning about wrapping up

It's grindcore time bitches

They do if you get the war domain, they get per short rest charges for an extra swing

War cleric extra strikes stack too. Beastmaster rangers are just a minion with some okay ranged attacks - the real character is the spider with unlimited webs that don't require concentration. Enemies will never move again

Word of warning: don't have multiple people with counterspell in your party. Having two counterspell reaction boxes pop up hard locks combat for me like 80% of the time and I have to reload a save.

If by 'bosser' you mean buying 50 maven invites to spam for potential profit the answer is still any flavor of mines that you prefer. If you mean a regular character that can also clear pinnacles then there's a shitload of options these days.

They even mentioned during exilecon that they had all these ruthless changes ready last league but didn't do it cause it cause the patch was relatively small and it'd just piss everyone off And now here we are with reddit in full unhinged meltdown mode again, ruthless is the real game, poe1 is...

Some big near-endgame sidequest spoilers:

You don't lose it but you also can't change it's allocation

Am I missing something with warlocks or is the game fucking up? At level 12 Wyll has 1 1st level spell slot, and 3 5th level slots and that's it? So if you want to hex stuff you have to burn 5th level slots to do it? He seemed to be getting spell slots for each level of spells as he leveled up...

A few more random powergaming findings while messing with respecs: Magic missile is completely cracked with all the random sources of added damage that are available. It counts each missile as an individual hit, so random shit like the gloves that add your caster stat to spell damage get added...

Man the vampire crypt is buggy as fuck (fuck you it's not a spoiler of course there's a vampire crypt in this game). There's dirt mounds you can't interact with/dig up, buttons that do nothing (?), and 'resolving' the place doesn't seem to work or update the quest journal at all either?

act3 sidequest spoiler question:

@Grabbit Allworth I was reading some lists of what has changed in BG3 vs tabletop 5E and stumbled in to this build site. Initially I kind of scoffed at your idea of 'i don't allow multiclassing in my games' but holy shit I've changed my mind - this is the gayest shit I've seen in a long time...

RE: druid companions

Few more musings if people want to powergame: Armor is OP as fuck and you should probably take a multiclass level on almost everyone in order to pick up at least medium armor if you're using dex, or full heavy armor if you're not dex. All casters can cast in armor just fine if they are...

There's only the ones down in the forge area that I know, but don't worry about it too much - that stuff gets outclassed almost immediately by the end of act2 or early in act3

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...

Act3 spoiler question:

Whelp, the quality of magic weapons is escalating quickly in act3:

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...

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...

Act 3 spoilers:

Fucking casuals. I'm not even done with the cursed lands yet lmao

Bard casts wizard spells as a bard near as I can tell and uses CHA for everything

Last of my spam posts, but I take back my earlier whinging about dialogue options costing you XP:

How many permanent passives/upgrades have you all run across yet? There's more than I expected but I doubt I've even found them all yet:

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...
