You could just skip the middleman and steal the gold.

Actually it's about ethics in stealing.

Do summons only scale with Summoner or will points in geo/aero/pyro make earth/air/fire/etc. elementals stronger?

 

[piratepwnsninja]

Question about four player co-op. Can you play four players with two PCs split screen? Trying to figure out if I need to buy two copies or four copies.

 

[Pyros_Eien]

Do summons only scale with Summoner or will points in geo/aero/pyro make earth/air/fire/etc. elementals stronger?

Only summoning and your level. The summons have their own stats so your skills/stats/items have no impact on that. You can give them buffs to increase their damage and such though like Clear Mind, Haste and the Necro damage buff based on hp missing.

 

[Lanrutcon]

I'm somewhere in act 2 and I just keep finding stuff. I thought I was like, 1/3? through the game. Now I'm like...yeah. I just how much shit did they pack into this game.

 

[Ryzaki009]

So that would mean that you wouldn't get access to Source abilities until a fair bit later? Man, this game....

You can actually get Source abilities before that point too

 

[Adnor]

Oh, you can equip and unequip runes without any problem, I have been ignoring them all this time lmao

 

[MisterShine]

Question about four player co-op. Can you play four players with two PCs split screen? Trying to figure out if I need to buy two copies or four copies.

Yes, each pc can handle two players, and the two computers can play over the internet. Everyone needs to use a controller though from what I understand.

At least it's not NO MAN IS A RICH AS THE MAN WITH MAANYY CHEESES every 2 seconds.

"RED AND ORANGE, YELLOW AND GREEN, THE FINEST VEGGIES CYSEALS EVER SEEN!"

"No time for cheese? That excuse has more holes than a slice of this fine gorgombert."

Repeat ad naseum.

I'm somewhere in act 2 and I just keep finding stuff. I thought I was like, 1/3? through the game. Now I'm like...yeah. I just how much shit did they pack into this game.

I heard that Act 2 is 50% of the game. So, yeah, twice the size of Act 1.

You can actually get Source abilities before that point too

I actually meant Bless. Unless there is a way to get that sooner too.

Yeah that's what I meant by source ability. You can't get anything before you get bless.

 

[Currygan]

Finally beat

Spoiler

Kniles the Flenser

with Beast (my main), Red Prince, Lohse and Ifan. His goddamned backstab one shotted poor Lohse, had no choice but to end the bastard. Tough, but he kicked the bucket soon enough and I also ripped his face off as a gift to Fane

 

[Kirie]

Act 2 early quest spoilers (chicken quest)

Spoiler

I went from laughing like an idiot at the Magicockeral (amazing voice acting btw) to pure horror when Peeper ended up turning into a voidling because I refused to kill him :/ Damn lol

 

[IlGialloMondadori]

Question about the black cat - I met him very early, climbed up the vines and he didn't follow. When I climbed back down, he was gone! Where does he go? He wasn't involved in any combat, he just disappeared! Where can I find him again?

 

[Shahadan]

Lmao I think I just had sex with a skeleton by accident
Well, Ifan did at least.

 

[Lanrutcon]

Nice, but I got one better: (chapter two early Driftwood tavern spoiler)

I made out with a giant spider.

I don't know which one is worse!
Man I thought they were giving me a joke answer and I couldn't resist to see what he was going to say, but that actually happened.
That was hilarious

I guess this game has undead/living gay sex in it, time to alert the media

I hope you did that for each character.

[Kalentan]

So once I got level 5/6 I just went back to Fort Joy and killed ALL the Magisters. lol.

Not sure if I was supposed to but hey, I guess people are free? (Not that the game would acknowledge it.)

 

[Adnor]

Damn, plan "Block LoS with boxes and barrels and shit" is a failure, can't rob this guy.

 

[aravuus]

Finished a couple of quests. Got a fantastic crossbow for Ifan.

Killed everyone in Fort Joy, more often than not in entirely unnecessarily sadistic ways. It was a good and productive day in the world of 3-player coop.

 

[TheSpoiler]

Man I'm just gonna restart and be a total jerk to everyone and everything. See how far I can make it.

 

[Sarcastic Poster]

I'm only about 2 hours in but fairly happy with my basic party composition.

Fane with Geo and Poly as main
Default Ifan
Knight Red Prince (I feel I should've went default here instead because the shield seems to be good but fuck it, gonna 2H destroy people)
Rogue/Mage mix Sebille (Lohse's story seems pretty interesting though)

I never replay games but this game already seems like it has so much replay value. So much densely-packed content. All of the companions seem pretty interesting as well.

 

[Kalentan]

Is the Arena in Fort Joy glitched?

After you complete the fight, and

Spoiler

get your collar removed

, she asks who you wish to challenge but then you're given no options to challenge anyone. Why?

It's only if you play with other people you can challenge them.

That's for co-op, so you can pvp.

Are you trying to rob the guy in blue at the top of the screen?

 

[Shahadan]

How do persuasion events work exactly? I have 2 points in persuasion and 20 of the right stat but it always fails.
Magister Ranley only has 12 in everything, so what are the rules exactly? :/

Edit: Hmm actually doing the action required rather that talking to her prompted a different event and it worked. Weird still

definitely what I'm planning to do as well. That plonker high judge or something will taste the whip soon enough

 

[Adnor]

Yeah, he's the weapons seller of driftwood but there's so many people there I can't rob him lol

 

[Kard8p3]

Beginning of Act 2 Question

Spoiler

I just respec'd Lohse into a rogue-esque character, but I don't have any spellbooks to teach her stuff, where can I find a vendor to steal/buy from for her? I'm wondering if I should just re-load and wait so she isn't completely useless lol

Driftwood tavern, there's a dwarf trader/bouncer that sells you scoundrel skillbooks.

ty! Maybe I can make it there with only 3 people being useful lol

Are there others not pictured? Because it looks like you can just use your other party members to distract them and get them looking in the opposite directions.

 

[Sarcastic Poster]

How are people finding the Origin characters so far? Any favourites, ones you dislike, particular quests etc.?

 

[Adnor]

In the end I teleported him away, had someone talk to him so he didn't move and rob him lmao

 

[Xeteh]

Man, I gotta spec out of Glass Cannon. My Ranger is constantly infected by something. What is the point of 6AP if it can't even be used.

 

[Kard8p3]

How are people finding the Origin characters so far? Any favourites, ones you dislike, particular quests etc.?

My party is Red Prince (Me), Fane, Lohse, and Ifan. They're all pretty great but the RP is my favorite by far.

 

[Stiler]

Can someone tell me regarding the magisters in act 1:

Spoiler

I am about to fight the Magister's to help Paladin Cork, however I assume this will then make them all openly hostile to me from here on out.

Am I going to miss out on any quests by doing this or anything?

 

[Kaffeemann]

Damn, plan "Block LoS with boxes and barrels and shit" is a failure, can't rob this guy.

Did you try smoke grenades?

 

[Stiler]

How are people finding the Origin characters so far? Any favourites, ones you dislike, particular quests etc.?

Lohse is my favorite, she has some of the best witty lines.

Fane is who I'm playing as and seems great from that side of playing as him.

Red Prince is a bit too overly melodramatic for me and pompus in a stereotypical "I'm rich and those who aren't are beneath me."

Sebille is a bit too stab happy for me since I'm trying to play as a morally decent person.

Beats seems to be cool so far.

Ifan seems to fit the morally grey area well, especially compared to Sebille.

 

[AnathemicOne]

How are people finding the Origin characters so far? Any favourites, ones you dislike, particular quests etc.?

I have myself (custom), Red Prince, Fane, and Sebille. Morally gray party ftw but still somewhat good. Fane is definite fave in getting juicy lore/story bits.

 

[Ghostbound]

How are people finding the Origin characters so far? Any favourites, ones you dislike, particular quests etc.?

I'm using Fane, Sebille, and Lohse along with my custom character. They all seem pretty great so far. I was originally planning on using the Red Prince but his personality didn't mesh with the rest of my party so I switched him out for Lohse instead.

 

[Sinatar]

Man, I gotta spec out of Glass Cannon. My Ranger is constantly infected by something. What is the point of 6AP if it can't even be used.

Yea they went a bit overboard with the Glass Cannon nerf. I mean yea it was incredibly broken in the first game, but it's pretty awful in this.

My coop partner took it on both his mages and it's turned him into a liability.

 

[texhnolyze]

Damn, plan "Block LoS with boxes and barrels and shit" is a failure, can't rob this guy.

LMAO. I tried exactly this plan last night. I couldn't find the NPC who actually has the vision.

Is it the guy who's lying down below the tree?

Did you try smoke grenades?

Well, damn. Will try later.

Red Prince is still my favorite, with Beast in the second. Sebille is fun but quite predictable.

 

[Adnor]

I think so, but in the end I used Fane to teleport the guy far away, Red Prince talked to him and Ifan robbed him blind.

Well, damn. Will try later.

They don't last enough to rob him peacefully.

 

[Twinsen343]

As others said but also I've had this bug. Only thing that fixed it was a reload from an earlier save. It was like the character was locked in place.

I had this, but the character has been un-chained, on the controller at least examine the character with X then select Chain, this happened to me and I thought it was a bug too.

 

[Oscar]

So is this up my alley if I enjoyed the XCOM 1 (remake) combat mechanics but thought the story was forgettable and thus stopped playing it?

 

[texhnolyze]

I think so, but in the end I used Fane to teleport the guy far away, Red Prince talked to him and Ifan robbed him blind.

He's not gonna be triggered into battle with teleport? Nice to know.

 

[carlsojo]

Red Prince is my bro.

Also rolling with Sebille and Lohse while playing Fane. Didn't find Beast or Ifan nearly as interesting as the rest.
