Ah I see. I didn't recall if the leadership character got their own buff or not.
Well if only person has leadership, then one of the portraits (the person with leadership) won't have the buff on it. For all 4 to be buffed, multiple characters need it.
EDIT: Beaten. Gotta stop replying to tabs I've had open forever.

Ok goddamn I finally found that cave entrance in the first area that leads to the lower beach. I don't understand why I completely missed it despite combing the map and essentially doing quests after it as well (I'm so blind). Anyways my character is basically a walking contradiction. Despite being virtuous in his actions and speech, my main (not even a rogue- magewarrior) is a freakin kleptomaniac who cannot resist the temptation of locked doors and locked chests (to the point where my other character pointed it out in dialogue). It's kinda hilarious that I've stumbled onto the individual(s) behind the murder and the undead infestation (and even other mysteries in the 1st area) in such a Pink Panther Inspector Clouseau-esque manner.

Every single level of Leadership I've gotten so far have added amazing buffs.
But there can only be one leader. That's the only way my party rolls.

It just reminds me of Ultima, where you are playing the actual living paragon of virtue, Britannia's equivalent of Jesus Christ, and you loot every damn thing that isn't nailed down.
This is basically how I use Madora except with the Witchcraft +50 damage instead of Bless. Gotta figure out how to do that..

the amount of detail in this game is quite simply overwhelming. I spent close to an hour just dicking around in the first real town reading everything and just taking in how expansive this game is

Finally caved and bought it, put an hour into it thus far, so I've cleared that tutorial dungeon and done the first fight so far. Liking it so far for sure. Went with a Witch and Fighter, and I must say, I quite like having a massive spider right from the off, appreciated it. Though, right now, I wish I had some sort of healing ability, but I can live with it.
But yeah, liking this so far, quite fun.

Its pretty insane, I tried telling the guys I played with that I went from 164-217 damage to close to 390 dmg by doing the double dip.
@Levyne thats Oath of Desecration, I use that also as part of my one shot combo.
You know what fucking sucks? Undead suck! Everyone in the city was right. It's a fucking PLAGUE on humanity. Ffffffffffffff. You know what sucks more than undead? Undead supported by stupid mages! Mages who can summon MORE undead, or bring them back! Fuck that shit! Oh and undead archers who have fire and poison arrows? Fuck them too! Fuck everything! T_T

Hehe, I never remember the name, just the effect.
The two fireball spell
One large fireball that leaves fire everywhere
Small Heal 3 times
Medium heal 2 times.
That's where Madora comes in and goes HAM on the mages.
duckroll isn't using Madora
I tried to tell him that she monsters everything, but he wouldn't listen.
My Madora is mostly golds, immune to many forms of CC and naturally absorbs the elements, can one shot bosses regardless of their element, yet she can't make it to the mobs in time because the elemental firing squad is sooo good. Which brings me to another point, it's great how they did resistances when you over do it, but NPCs should not get mad when you HEAL them with elemental damage.
I had Madora strait rage quit, I mean straight call us scrubs and teleport out, because she was being healed for 100 a tick burning due to my Meteor spell doing work.
I hated her for overshadowing my main characters, but grudgingly relied on her to carry my party nonetheless.

While I do love all the combat tracks I would have preferred a few more that get rolled out as you progress into the new major areas to keep things fresh.
Just go for the over kill, give her bully and slow the boss and also give her Oath of Desecration. It's just silly at this point with her only weakness is getting to the mob in time.
That song gets me super pumped while I'm battling. It's amazing.
Burn them with fire. Did you know that poison and poison clouds are flammable?

What type of party are you using?
There's an achievement called fabulous disaster, heh.
Lots of metal references in the game. Someone in Larian must be a huge fan
It's probably David(the guy always playing with Swen).
She's about as crazy as she's strong.
I'm at work right now so I can't actually listen to this video, but I'm pretty sure Battle Force is one of the combat themes. If it's the one I'm thinking of, it's my favorite.
This game is kind of inverted from standard RPG methodology. Most RPG's, mages start weak and end ultra powerful, in this it's Warriors who have that curve. Mages are still great in the end game, but more as support/utility while your 2hd warrior just wrecks the everloving shit out of everything in sight.
Oh, good call! The version in original sin seems a little faster but yes, one my favorites!
Speaking of this, does anyone know the name of this particular piece?
That wasn't it. Starts off with a piano melody.
Being able to interact witht he environment and use the elements is a pretty nice mechanic for mages, but if you give Madora/your warrior some items and lvls they activate beast mode.
Most of my late game battles are going like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HlWBDecjAU
Madora = Mother Russia of course, the rest of my party staring onwards in awe.

My warrior is currently having trouble hitting things. Yeah, they crush it pretty hard, but actually hitting targets right now is a significant issue.
Meanwhile, spells always hit... or is their hit chance determined by resistances? I'm confused.
Nope, neither one of those two.
If you can, try to learn Bless.
Yea the soundtrack only includes the new tracks Kiril did for OS. You can find the rest of his music for free on his site. Specifically check out the top 2, Musica Divina and Musica Obscura. He has a lot of remixes of Divinity 1 & 2 tracks there and it might have the faster version of Battle Force.
