Man, at night with the magic archer light spell thing is so super useful.
Also works great in caves and gives off a few minutes of light.

And you don't even have the ring from BBI that upgrades Dire Gouge, or the BBI augment that boosts your strength when clinging to a monster.

So I feel pretty overpowered. Can BBI really be so tough as to still be hard for beefed up characters? I was told it was crazy even when the overpowered kids went in upon the original expansion.
Just checked the moonbeam doors loot and if the wiki isnt outdated (like it is for when some augments unlock in vocations), then I don't really want any of it. I guess ill get the lantern ring, and the shield so I have a shield ready for my fighter / mystic knight when I go to new game+?
Edit: how do you get the rings that augment skills, and which magick archer skill gets augmented? Ricochet pls?

Just beat BBI at level 67...now gotta go back through against post daimon.
The real fun starts now.
I got 2 duplicate mage BBI level 3 staves and 2 duplicate BBI level 2 fighter boots.

Most likely the 7850.

Should have saved and reloaded. Loot is fixed so it was always going to be those 2 staves and 2 fighters boots. You should have gotten 1 staff and 1 boots (or none if you didnt want them), changed vocation on you and your pawn to something else, and then purify the secind item
Found out today about the staff that makes your pawn revive automagically every time. It's super old though, so I wonder how many people will pass on my pawn because of its low magick (even though the stat is irrelevant for support mages).
Anyone in dire need of RC? I might go farm Daimon for a while and I don't really need exp or pawns to help with damage, so I can take some low level ones.
You get those rings by purifying Bitterblack Gear Lv. 1/2/3. Lv3 can come with two upgraded skills, like the one I found with shadowshakle+immolation upgrade.

The most important: Sixfold Bolt becomes Ninefold Bolt. It's as OP as it sounds.

Sixfold is good too, one of my mains. Neat.

Lvl 2 and lvl 3 are the same drops, the bands always have 2 skills, rings have 1.
I'm at the exact same part and I swear it took me about 30 minutes of firing arrows (on top of all the other stuff my pawns were doing) to kill it.
Every time I looked down to get some stamina back some one or two (or three) pawns would be down and I'd have to do a loop of the room to get them all back on their feet.
My great gamble can one shot these XD.

I was pretty overlevelled in post game too and the beginning of BBI was relatively easy, but it has a rather steep increase in difficulty so yeah, I'd wager it'll still be tough for your character. Unless you somehow levelled to level 150 or some shit in the main game.

There is an option in ENB called debanding. I forgot what category it's under but it'll give you what you want.

The boots were needed for both of us. Staves not so much.
Everyone knows you cant fall if you don't look down.
Actually, you can clear a few rooms in BBI at a pretty low level. The thing is, it gets harder.

Seems like Z Y X X is preferable to ensure stability. And sitting in the chair and swapping 2ry and 3ry twice to make sure nothing else replaces those.

The progression isn't too hard, I'm close to the end now at level 68. The thing is there are plenty of enemies scattered around that you have no business fighting with maybe double or more health bars than the stuff you see out in Gransys. After killing a dragon in BBI I went and checked out the one in Devilfire Grove. Killed it in one mount in about 20s. The Cursed one in BBI took 20 minutes, a farm worth of healing items and multiple wakestones. My weapons did no visible damage in that fight either.
I don't care how strong you are pre NG+, BBI will find a way to fuck you up.

Took out my first Chimera! That was a blast. Just hit level 22 and am trying to finally make some progress. I just got to some fort to look for a book?
Okay I understand this part. And I know what the knowledge chair is, but what exactly is the process for the 2ry and 3ry? I am assuming that means tertiary.

I got a couple question regarding switching vocations, is it advisable to first get my starter vocation maxed and then move to a new one? Also what would be a good one to switch to from Fighter if I'm not really wanting to use a shield anymore?
Alright, I'm getting frustrated.
My pawns are idiots. They are literally doing little else than running around me in circles while I fight. They don't take shots, they don't cast spells, or if they do they cancel them ever 3 seconds. It's getting really god damn annoying dying in BBI because one of them decides they want to go on a walk and not rejoin the battle.

Only if you have an augment you want from your starter vocation, for fighter you'd probably want to get sinew before switching

You can do sword/bow or daggers/bow assassin if you want to stick to melee but want to ditch the shield (but still have the choice to equip a shield if you want)
You should read about inclinations. My pawn used to be useless. I read a guide, gave her some potions and now she is pretty good.
Also when you rent pawns, check their inclinations.
Gonna have a crack at nu-BBI with Noray and Renzo's monster pawns and see how big the xp hit is when I get home from work.
Also, I was suggested to not use a mage anymore and just go with another dps because at this point the mage heals arent doing much. Is that a common strat?

Assassin looks cool, I'll probably go with that, unless something changes and I want to mess with the shield, then I'll go Mystic Knight because that looks insane.

Hey guys
So I picked up the game a couple of days ago and have about 7 hours played so far
Just past the part where
. Playing a strider but everything seems to have an inordinate amount of health and kills me & my pawns in a couple of hits. I've enhanced both my daggers and bow once but it doesn't seem to have had much of an effect. Is the game meant to be this hard?

you go into the dungeon beneath gran soren and run away from the serpents
Sounds to me like you didnt do many sidequests and just followed the main story and are probably underleveled
You need a mage pawn with fire boon/affinity. Like, really, if you aren't doing fire damage in that place you're not gonna do damage.

I'm currently level 19 and exploring the map to the west of Gran Soren. Tried to do the ancient quarry but the monster in there would have taken literally 10 to 15 minutes to kill

My Fighter pawn finally started taking in the RC. 100k in a day, not bad. Certainly better then anything I ever got prior.

Hmm I never bothered with this because I figured the damage would be too low. Am I wrong then?Finally decided to give rusted daggers a shot playing an assassin... WOW! What a difference it makes in boss fights, I feel like I'm cheating using them though
Or do you just need to switch between daggers after inflicting torpor, and then switch again when it expires to re-proc it? Sounds like a hassle.
Fix your inclinations, yo
Or read my FAQ in the OT 
I really need to equip audacity and try arc of deliverance for once

The warrior skill Audacity which "makes it harder for enemies to knock you off your feet while charging an attack" definitely makes it harder for enemies to knock you off your feet while charging an attack.
I think I finally figured out how to play a warrior.
Eventually you won't need audacity because of high knockdown/stagger resistance gear, but yeah :].

I ran regular daggers plus a rusted bow on my Assassin back in the day. Definitely broken.
Just make sure not to romance anyone else:
In the case of two love interests the one you last spoke to is the one who gets picked as your fated one.

And that's why you nver fight in that area.
