You uninstall it and await the incoming great RPG instead.

Just make everyone a full strength 2h fighter and max vampirism or w/e the health steal trait is

One hunter with crossbow and full rqnged/huntsman talent
2 magicians with wands, one being the support and other being summoner/necromancer
1 warrior with shield and geomancery
Done

Seriously, bow class is overpowered as fuck.

Critical is the way to go for everything.

LONE
WOLF
SUMMONER

You use different approaches to fights until you find the one that lets you faceroll shit. Alternatively, you go Lone Wolf but that won't make you better at the game.

>tfw I installed a 6 player mod so I can have every preset character in my party
I don't give a shit about difficulty but I do give a shit about having to replay a long ass game for the full experience

Get the mod that doubles enemies in combat encounters and increases the amount of enemies in general, shits hillarious

>tfw playing this game with my two retarded friends like it's a dnd campaign

literally put the ranged people on the building near her and there's nothing she can do

You take on challenges you can do first, level up, get better equipment, and then revisit the fights that obliterated you until you have the right set of options and stats to get through them. Or, you take them on differently, like in a non-combat fashion.

what are you having trouble with?

I just tried the Arena at Fort Joy and I failed badly

I have killed the 3 crocodiles at the beach but that's the only fight I've done since reaching the Fort.

summon
teleport

ok you just won the game

whats your party composition looking like? Have you done the lesser quests in the court and explored all around the outside without escaping?

I play as Lohse, I picked metamorphosis and 2H so far
I brought with me Ifan, Fane and Seville (the elf) and left them with their default builds

Oh also I've not really done much otherwise, only the quest with the orange and the cook at the fort.

Try to get your shit together, who tanks, who heals, who does magic damage, etc.

Buy new gear

Do any of the party members in 2 hold a candle to Wolgraff?

Also get new gear or craft them with stuff lying around

>Ywn hear Wolgraff spot a trap again

i took the same 4. not sure what the default builds are however, i changed everyones. do a few quests, get a couple new skills, and then head back in.

Welp, I'm fucking done with this game now

>Honour mode
>Act 2, recruiting Hannag
>walk up to her initiially
>instantly kills me
>revive from glowing idol
>instantly kills me again

Team as either 100% magic or 100% physical damage.

Steal shit you need from vendors.

Congratulations, you just beat tactician mode.

I love Fane as a character but having 2nd thoughts about choosing him as the protag for my first playthrough.

Any recommendations on how I should roll him? I'm currently doing Necro/Geo mage.

you use your brain
also be sure to play on hard, normal is easy mode

I love necro/warrior on him.

Necro is a physical trait so you'd have to compensate for that. Necro/summoner seems to work good too

Wolgraff pointing out the torch on the fireplace in hunter's edge was pretty amusing.

so what'd you do to piss her off?

very bad idea, you should stay balanced

[Ifan looks like there's something on his mind. Maybe you should talk to him]

I usually run all my magicians the same with Necro/Summ because summoning incarnates and summon widow scale from the same, 10 points summons are insane

I tried a few things, necro+int+wits works best.

Literally nothing, that's 10~ hours of progress wasted because of this games many bugs

I'm not sure why I care so much about completing honour mode, when I've lost 3 runs now all to bugs/glitches

He probably just walked towards her, when you find her for first time shes casting spells around because some magisters want to kill her, kill the magisters and she'll talk to you after dealing with them, also you can't have more than 3 source points so you can move on after getting 3 or keep looking for quests for extra exp

What is best classes for party?

she literally screams to you to stay away, and its clear you have to either kill the other people or sneak close to her, thats not a bug

they stop being that good mid-game

They lose some of their impact late game, but they're still potent.

what bug? once your idol is used you're dead, that's it
unless you're talking about the exploit that got patched.

SHUT THE FUCK UP, BIBIUS

The caster itself? Maybe, but the summons can still hit really hard, bone widow has burrow and hits really fucking hard lategame, incarnates are more about situational summons since they take a spell based on surface so if you need an emergency healing you pull up a water incarnate, or a blood incarnate for armor rape and CC with power infusion.

Does the revival idol not stack with the second chance trait, so you self-res twice?

>it's literally the opening scene to D:OS2
Spoiler that fucking image, you're posting in a Divinity thread.

Never tried it but it should since the idol is an item, not a talent.

Or they both activate at once and don't really stack

You would still waste a revive since you die, idol activates but not second chance, and since you revive from outside of second chance the next time it triggers it. See where I am going?

Now that the dust has settled... 1 > 2?

>tfw when I shut them both up, permanently

Fuckers shouldn't have stepped to me.

Well I skipped the arena and went to the "underground cave" with the fire slugs and got my shit handed to me as well

Where the fuck do I go?

help the guy whos dying on the bich, help Mingo, help the dog whos hungry, go and fight the fucking niggers dealing cards, explore you humongous homo

I already did the crazy guy, I already won the gold from the card guys, I explored all there is to find

I'll just play something else

Have you found the teleporting gloves? Have you found a way of getting out of fort joy? No you didnt you fag.

>it's another thread where brainlets pretend they're smart and know something about turn based tactics because they played babby's first TBT game with exactly zero challenge

They're both dogshit.

I bet you play Pillars and think its hard because combat is clunky as fuck

M8 I didn't even get INTO fort joy
I'm pretty sure the way was behind that slug

Only place I haven't been to yet is the prison below the statue, I'll go maybe tomorrow if I don't uninstall it

Have you considered not being so shit?

>I bet you play Pillars and think its hard
So you think Pillars are not hard? Can you back up your statement with proof that you've finished the game in PotD? Because I can back up my statements about DOS1 and 2.

Also, Pillars is not even a TBT game, I had other games in mind.

Definitely rogue with thievery. Put a couple of points into polymorph and enjoy leaping through all over the map. Get other character max lucky charm and you will bath in money.

Im actually playing PoT right now, the game is hard at frist (like any rpg) but the second you get to a tavern you recruit a whole party with some idea of how2roles and it's piss easy.

>and it's piss easy.
You'll get to say that once you've beaten the Alpine dragon and the double dragon fight, not before.

Also which game is that? Im currently playing Pillars, already played DOS and Im trying to find a place to download Underrail, have some recomendations?

Can you name those games, I'm genuinely interested.

>Also which game is that?
Mordheim: City of the Damned.

>recommendations
For fantasy games, play Temple of Elemental Evil first. It has a very solid turn based combat system, but suffers from mediocre encounter design. Once you're done with ToEE, look up the King's Bounty series. These are games that are built on the tactical aspect of the HoMM games and are really good. Crossworlds and Dark Side are the best entries in the franchise, The Legend is the most primitive gameplay wise, but it has its own unique charm. Once you're done with that, play Knights of the Chalice - a game that has a combat system almost as good as the one in ToEE, but drastically better encounter design. It will test your prowess in the TBT genre quite heavily. Further, you can try some other lesser known games like Dungeon Rats and Blackguards - all of them are good entries and challenging as fuck, but don't expect much in the way of characters and story, these are TBT games first and everything else second. Once you're done with that, you're almost ready for the serious shit. The first step on the path to true mastery of the TBT genry is to play Battle Brothers - a very punishing and challenging game that will wreck your shit, if you're not a true connoisseur of the genre by that point, but its gameplay mechanics are relatively simple, compared to what comes next. Finally, you're ready to hit the serious shit: Mordheim and Warmachine: Tactics. Every single SRPG/TBT enthusiast should play Mordheim, it's a one of a kind game with unmatched tactical depth that is born from unmatched unit build customization never seen before in the genre as well as overall complexity and depth of the combat system. Warmachine is a criminally underrated game that got blasted by brainlets, because it is LITERALLY so complex, it is physically impossible to make a good interface for it, but when it comes to sheer tactical depth, Warmachine is even better than Mordheim.

Is there a place where I can get a torrent for it? Since they were underrated then there shouldn't be many of them

>>ToEE and KotC
how exactly are these two tactical?

Another game I've forgotten to mention is Legends of Eisenwald. You should probably play it after KotC as, even though the combat system in that game is quite simplistic, it is balls to the wall hard at some points and will eat the unskilled alive. If you want something with more roleplaying depth, then you already probably know about Underrail and Shadowrun games as well as the two Expeditions games, but they're not really exceptionally deep TBT games, to be honest. If you want something with stealth, Invisible Inc. is great, I highly recommend that game even though it's not really all that complex or challenging. Some people I know also liked Halfway, but I haven't played that one yet. Of course, there are also the meme nuCOM games as well as the old JA games, but you should have played those by now. They're all worth playing sooner or later. There's also banner saga games, but the combat system in those games is somewhat different from what most people are used to, since you're actually punished for killing enemies fast and efficiently. Personally, I don't like Banner Saga at all.

How are they not? You make a custom party, you kill shit in turn based combat.

I own all my games on Steam (except KotC, since it's unavailable there), I have no clue about torrents.

Also, here's an outdated visual guide to newer Western TBT games. I've made it some time ago to shitpost in weebcuck threads and didn't bother updating it.

Fuck, wrong pic, here's a better one without the weebshit.
