Divinity Original Sin II

Why is no one on here talking about legitimate contender for GOTY and best WRPG (excluding the Witcher III) in the past five years?

>tfw Lohse will never fuck you with her weird demon psychosis

>he wants to fuck Adrhamalic or whatever his name was
That's super gay.

Best class combos?

>Invite skeleton for beer saying he's not so bad after all
>Screen darkens and I lick him five times over
It was Bioware tier

battle system is good until you solve it, rest of the game is pretty shit

come to me, the night is dark

It is possible to change the camera so that it's first person like skyrim? The game seems but if I don't want to buy it if it forces me to play like an RTS.

Would geomancer/hydromancer work for a durable lifebender?

>It is possible to change the camera so that it's first person like skyrim?
no

sounds like it would make a good dedicated healer but geo spells kind of suck for damage

Okay I'll still end up buying it because of the nice scores it's getting on meta critic.

Warfare/Polymorph STR build is insane.

bait

max warfare and one point in scoundrel/huntsman for teleports, adrenaline and heals

Geo gives armor right. Or am I remembering it wrong. I'd want insane armor and magic armor. I'm not too familiar with geos list of spells. I'd also want to be a volcano bender with pyro/geo. I'm playing with 2 different friend groups. One game I'm playing the beast 2 handed warfare and my other game I'm playing an elf poly/rogue

Where my scalies at?

you need two points for the scoundrel/huntsman jump skills

Stop that, darling.

I've been using my main (Fane) as a Necro/Warfare but I think I can build it better. I'm building it based on Finesse, as I'm using spears, in my party, STR weapons are for Red Prince. Any tips? I have at least 2 points in wits in all characters, but I'm thinking on taking them out when I figure out out to respec (I just left Fort Joy, on the boat at the moment). The points in wits are there because when I am greatly outnumbered they kind of work in a way that prevents me from suffering 5 enemy turns in a row (this had happened to me fighting radeka).

What is the point of the drowned temple? Did I miss anything? Yes, I found the armory

Hydro/Aero works pretty well as far as CC and heals go, also a decent amount of utility.

Same as all the other temples.

Oh. I just started, so the other one I did at least gave me a useless sword.

The fuck?

>dual mage lone wolf turns every encounter in the game into a fucking joke
>99.9% of larianiggers still play on kiddie difficulties
So this... is the power... of the turn based tactics """"""""""""""""""""""veterans """""""""""""""""""""" shilling this garbage. Woah...

"look at me, im pretending to be stupid xD"

m8, maybe its time to go back to plebbit and make some effort posts and farm karma there. k?

You don't need polymorph at all for an insane warfare build. What you really need is to combine adrenaline with rage and onslaught. Then you can rage+onslaught on the same turn as long as you stand still and if you're an elf or have the pawn talent you can move for 1AP and rage-onslaught on the same turn.

Alright faggots, start posting party screencaps.

This is bait.

Coz it's derivative dungeons and dragons schlock that's been done a thousand times before.

Name another modern Western RPG that allows for the multiclassing this game does. Then name one that came with a built in campaign building system for handcrafting what are essentially tabletop RPG campaigns.

Love the game, pissed that Malady died in the act 4 intro because of a bug.

visually i like poly/geo
flying in to the middle of a bunch of enemies with your medusa tentacles, petrify everyone, and make a giant earthquake

Just eat Alexanders head and you have solved the entire act.

Spoilers, reeeeeeeeeee!

I know it hurts that your fanbase consists of walking, talking trash in humanoid shape, but you really need to learn how to contain that butthurt.

>tfw neither the souls-, nor the witcherfags are as degenerate and disgusting as the casualshit furfags that constitute the majority of larianiggers

they seem cool enough. Curious about your builds, especially dem rogue and warrior.

not really a spoiler, it's something that can happen as a result of really going out of your way to fuck her over in act 2, but still happened to me as a bug

Not really a spoiler, you can kill Malady whenever the fuck you want because the game allows you to from act 2 onwards.

Are dual daggers finally not shit in this one?

In first one it felt like there's no point for a dex character to even bother with them with the absolute shit tier damage even when backstabbing while putting yourself next to enemies when bows and crossbows could do retarded damage from miles away and could shoot 5 elemental arrows per turn.

Because it's a pc exclusive

>modern Western RPG
>multiclassing
>user made campaigns campaigns
NWN2 and, unlike DOS2, it actually has user made campaigns worth mentioning. Reminder: there was never even a single good story mod for DOS1 and there won't be one for DOS2 either, because larianiggers are talentless babbys and proper DOS modding is non-existent.

4 two handers.

combat sneaking is still shit tier but scoundrels are pretty damn fine. Every class is really

>Dual wielding wands

Even with two of them they do pretty pitiful damage and you'll never be doing basic attacks anyway as a mage, might as well drop one for a shield

You might trigger people with this on reddit

>shield
>Dropping damage for defense

What kind of pussy mage is this?

give me a second to launch the game and to pose

>Pic related

Neverwinter Nights 2 is 11 years old nigger. Also did any of those games have full, decent quality voice acting for every line of dialogue in the game?

An extra wand doesn't add anything to the damage of your spells unless it gives int or skill bonuses, which shields can do anyway

POE: Deadfire is gonna dethrone D:OS2, mark my words, Sawyer's going to show everybody how you make a true, fully fledged, rpg experience, with romance and all that shit!
[Deadfire's gonna be PoE 1.5]

>What kind of pussy mage is this?
battlemage?

Lizzah pope

Glass cannons: the game, part two.
Now with damage shields for mild inconveniences. Not much has changed you still go all out to stomp or get stomped. Healing is even more useless than before.

>Not playing a lizard girl

>voice acting - literally the biggest strain of cancer to ever infest RPGs that leads to dilution of dialogue trees is something larianiggers feel the need to boast about

>Not going two axes or 2h.

Ive never seen a shield give INT or a mage class bonus. I always ran two wands because it always almost gives me 2 INT and one of mages class im stacking damage on.

>Pic related is Red Prince tank build

Will post other caps of the rest of the party, mage's is visible in the original screencap.

>Not taking items primarily for stats and actually using the wands as weapons

That's pretty plebeian user, gotta be honest.

>Using Wands
>Not using Staves with Warfare skills like Whirlwind and Sparking Swings to shit Supernova tier damage in a controlled burst for 1 less AP

moar like Rangers: The Original Sin 2 amirite?

are they using unity again?
because loading for eternity was stupid

The writing was done before the voice acting. In fact, the VA work was only started after the game was delayed from its initial Summer release date to September, so it literally didn't factor into anything.

One of my mages in my current file has a shield that gives 4 int

It's rarer but it happens, and even without it the armor shields give is fucking retarded, at higher levels a shield gives more than all of my warrior's armor put together

Are you really a mage at this point or a demigod?

>enjoy the game till act 4
>get bored at how shit Arx is and can't find the will to finish it

I think I will restart it with a different build. Is battlemage with aero viable? I realize how better pyro would be for a melee build but I love those hydro aero combos too much.

...

Literally every class can be used to break the game, there's no need to argue which one of them is more broken, because they all are, if you have at least two brain cells to rub together. The game is the single biggest casul magnet in recent history of RPGs and TBT games in particular.

...

wands have add critical chance. Can get that perk so your spells can crit.

10% increased damage at most vs a ton of armor/magic resist and probably some CON and block

there is no reason to dual wield wands unless you are doing a wand damage build, which is doable but pretty weak anyway

maybe you could justify it by having crit on both wands, but there are better ways to get crit, armor is still better, specially considering how shit the new armor system is, much more with the retarded way they decided to handle initiative

The voice acting cut into production costs, you fucking mongoloids. You know, the same production costs that could have been used to hire actual writers to write actual dialogue instead of replacing it with shitty narrator description that is not capable of conveying character personalities properly.

Alright, that's my whole party as it currently stands.

I know, but I tend to use my mage as a support platform rather than a damage dealer.

You're not even trying anymore user.

The writing was done before the voice acting was even considered a possibility. This is like saying development plans on an already constructed building cut into the initial construction, it's nonsense.

>Game asks if you want to have a private, intimate moment with one of your companions
>I-I just wanted to have a beer with him
Just come out of the closet already.

learned this shit early on battlemages are real as fuck in this game.

Cmon user, we all know you want that lizard dick.

11hrs in, still messing around in the fort. Didn't follow any build guide, just going with the flow and doing what looks cool.

This game is giving me a genuine feeling of freedom. I didn't play the first one but this is a blast so far. I feel like at the pace I'm going I'm in for at least a good 100 hours of fun and discoveries.

The money used for voice acting could have been used for hiring additional writers and writing more and better dialogue, you fucking brainlet.

Lizards are /aesthetic/

>putting all these points in CON for your party

CON is a bad stat. Even for your tank.

Yes they are, albeit a new version, and they said they were aware of the loading times

>Why don't we all just be Sword and Board

Thats why I have fane as my mage and have him fake death or go invisible right before he hit the canvas.

>Why is no one on here talking about
people reached the end of act 2

thanks user.

Nobody was preventing them from hiring extra writers to write more shit on top of what was already in the game. More origin character interactions with NPCs and each other would have been way better than the shitty soulless voice acting the game has.

>Shield throwing intensifies

hp is usually the biggest decider of you can handle an encounter. Damage is a given. You can have characters that never dies throughout the game or some that dies every now and then.

I've had my party get cut down way too easily by a boss having better initiative. Caused me to shy away from total glass cannons.

Fane was the last character added to the game and was only complete a month before release. Funnily enough, Avellone's character is probably the weakest of the bunch, only ahead of Beast who has zero content.

>Shitty soulless voice acting

user this isn't Skyrim we're talking about.

one shield throw at the bitch got me right in phase 2 in the final fight

Hey, i am whatever the the beast gear is.
>sword with 3 slots
>shield with 3 slots
You bet your ass i'd change to a sword and board combo.It's not like changing my build would take any effort.The mirror is only a few clicks away.

>Funnily enough, Avellone's character is probably the weakest of the bunch
>Fane
>being worse than Sebille
Fane is actually the second best character after Ifan, everyone else is dogshit tier.

I liked Beast but you're right. He did nothing for the story.

>shitty soulless voice acting
Nigger please.

Phys and Mag armors are much bigger deciders. If those are down you are subjected to CC where you CON is fucking useless.

Funny that you've mentioned Skyrim, because even Skyrim has more voice actors and better acting than this turd.
