Oh and one last thing, how do I heal mid battle (other than pawns healing me)?

I'm hoping there are some UI mods that make it easier?

Use the hot keys (1,2,3,4,5,6, etc)! When in the inventory menu (curatives, tools, etc), just press which button you want to set an item you have selected, and it'll be usable while in the field.

The troll or ogre or whatever it was in The Everfall fell to his death for me, Dark Souls style.

"I'll take it" was my reaction... just like in Dark Souls lol

That whole quest is amazing--it's a treasure trove of precious moments.

...I got that monster the same way, only I was wildly stabbing it in the back as it ran off, with me narrowly jumping to safety thereafter. It was a harrowing experience.

 

[robotzombie]

So what skills should I be grabbing ASAP as a mystic knight?

Also, do I need to bother using staves as one? Because I really don't want to

 

[Ghost Slayer]

Really depends on what you want to do and the rest of your team. If you have a mage, don't bother with enchants. If you want to play more caster/ranged build, you want Magic Cannon+Compass Slash(and the upgrades obviously) on your sword, with the 3rd skill being one of the 2 sigils(one does damage, the other pulls stuff together for aoes) or a sword skill of your choice. For the shield you want Holy Aid and then counters for the elements you prefer. Might want an enchant if your mage is being derpy about buffing you for the cannon, or if you prefer having the mage buff the rest of the team with a certain element while you do another.

For a more melee oriented build, or less cheesy, you'd drop Cannon and get another sword skill and one of the counters for Dark Anguish(might want it even in a caster build tbh but whatever).

Thanks

Just try them. You get a bunch of points and you level super fast. From what I've seen the skills are very "personal choice"

Every time I've done that quest, the ogre offs himself by running off the edge during one of his frenzied rampages. I've never felt bad about it.

Game runs a couple degrees hotter than most of my games. A little strange since it's not demanding and I have my framerate capped.

Yeah, my CPU is regularly at 70-72 degrees Celsius despite its usage rarely going above 50-60 percent. Not too sure why.

Magic cannon and the stone forest although the latter is late game since its unlocked last.

Im a PC virgin who knows fuck all about building but on the 28th i begin attempting it and DD is my number one motivation.

Im relying on you gaf!

I had the same thing except I was running away since he was going to kill me. A few seconds later I see a shitload of XP pop up and the ogre nowhere to be found lol.

Decided to try out BBI as I was getting bored of the MMO style questing.

5 minutes in and all my pawns are gone lol. BBI seems so vastly different than venturing around Gransys though, design feels much, much tighter. Maybe I just need to enter more dungeons or w/e on the mainland.

You're not mistaken, BBI is much different from the main game.

What lvl are you? I didn't evesn enter bbi until I was lvl 100+ (played on console).

Don't worry, everyone cries their first time.

 

[Rizzi]

I don't have friends playing this, so I have no friend pawns, and nobody is hiring mine.
Add me and hire my pawn!

 

[Cerity]

34 now. Did decent enough damage to most of the monsters in the first section but then ran into that boss which took out two of my pawns. Did some exploring and ran into some skellies which I did next to no damage to and lost my last pawn there running out lol.

 

[surjective]

Thanks to throwblasts, I killed the

in Bitterblack Isle. Gained like 5 levels from that battle alone. I think I'll do more of the main quest before heading towards

Sweet Pope and Hella Drake.

When in doubt, chuck throwblasts. They even stunlock

[Pancakes]

Damn this Dragon in Devil's Grove is so annoying and buggy. It will just randomly fly off and make me fail the ambush quest for it =/.

 

[Ivory Samoan]

ENB question DragonGAF: is it normal to get the Deferred Rendering message on startup (in red writing) since I looked in enblocal.ini and there is no line to enable Deferred Rendering? (although, I could add one and possibly break stuff...I'm a bit newb at ENB things).

Any help appreciated GAF

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

God I pumped so many hours into this already...

People on my friend's list have the game but I've only see two pawns when I search by friends...

Side note, this is really what I was looking for in Witcher 3. The battle and animation is incredibly well done and just feels right.

How do you enable deband shader in GeDoSaTo?

Yes it is for now, its a leftover option from skyrim, just ignore

It will return to its stomping grounds if you try to lead it away.

I tried to get it and the armored cyclops to fight each other, but no dice.

 

[wazoo]

Maybe it is not available yet.

You can activate it in reshade very easily.

That's handy. I don't remember that there's such feature on the consoles version.
How do I do that with a gamepad?

 

[Alo81]

How do you enable deband shader in GeDoSaTo?

Download the post.fx file from here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Alo81/gedosato/master/pack/assets/dx9/post.fx

Drag it into the GeDoSaTo\assets\dx9 folder.

Open the post.fx file and set Deband to 1.

Open up the Dragon's Dogma profile in GeDoSaTo and set

enablePostprocessing true

It currently has a bug that makes me need to put it at the front of the processing chain, meaning that it will Deband the vanilla frame (and do further processing on that), but it won't deband any banding that is introduced by the shaders themselves.

For me in practice though, the results have been good.

Just back up your save file periodically basically.

Nah, it's a new feature. Though if you play on the gamepad, you'll still have to hit the keys on the keyboard to activate it. One of the benefits of having 100 or so keys on a computer interface.

Your character is half-naked and alone, surrounded by direwolves and a Chimera. What a night he must've had.

Striders and subsequent vications cant use swords, so no

 

[unity of the void]

I decided to start on hard mode as a sorcerer and it reminded me of how much fun this game is! Almost dying to the bats in Cassardis made me erupt in a lot of laughter. BEST GAME EVER!

 

[HalfBakedProphet]

[TDLink]

Assassin. You can change your vocation to it when you get to Gran Soren at the Inn. They can use swords or daggers as primary and bows or shields as secondary. It's what I'm currently playing and it's a lot of fun.

At the very end of the hydra escort quest (Hard mode), I wandered off the track a bit to see if I could "ride" one of the nearby cattle(?) beasts. It charged me and killed me in an instant. I couldn't stop laughing for a good 30 seconds.

Last ENB question (thanks again sotodefonk), if I enable HBAO+ in Inspector, and Depth of Field in the ENB options (using Shift+Enter), should I have the in-game options for both set to off or both on still?

My thinking is that they would conflict with each other if I leave FXAA3HQ and DoF on in-game, but I'm not sure - much appreciated GAF!

 

[TheChewyWaffles]

So are the best enb settings the default ones or is there a better package on nexus?

Well damn, I guess I'll have to bring my keyboard over to me.
Hotkeys for healing items is a godsend.

Focus on their heads, climb them if you're a melee.

I always turn off in-game AA for ENB.
As for your first question, can't help you as I'm not using nvidia card.

I'm using this one.
I turned off the DOF from enbseries.ini as it blurs some text.

Depends on the preset i guess, Ive seen some readme in presets that says specifically disable dof and aa.

Doesn't ENB inject HBAO?

Been thinking about rerolling my char. I wanted to replay this game as sword and board but it just isn't fun waiting for your mage pawns to cast the right spell to make battles go by smoother. Otherwise you're trying to do what striders and their sub classes can do better. Climbing up and slicing weak spots. It really feels like sword and board has a ton of disadvantages (such as being the only non ranged play style until you get the advances vocations).

It seems like this game favors ranged combat a lot. Now I know why I became a magic Archer a long time ago. Especially when it comes to bosses.

Is there a way to transfer my character creation to a new game????????????

 

[Rizzi]

Longswords are fun.
