Yeah, but that happens rarely; my main Pawn ends up annoying the hell out of me. Quick to cast Holy Affinity when needed though.

Damn she looks great. Totally doesn't give a video game character look. Very realistic. And hot.
Yeah, same. I thought theyd be useless AI characters but theyre actually helpful little buggers. Ive had bad experiences with other peoples pawns but my current team wont ever be changed. I love them all.
If its a gaffer that created Talia the ranger chick on PS3, I love you.
Hmm, mine has been pretty good.
My brother created some pawn thats crazy jumpy and grabby. He will seriously grab anything he can and then start yelling for me to kill it. Hes also suicidal....every fight he yells out "Ill use myself as bait!" or something like that. I love him.
Then theres Talia the ranger. Shes just all around great.
Couple questions again:
1) Whenever I talk to Quinna there's this weird noise. Like a chime, does that mean anything?
2) Is there a board quest or something later to slay that drake in devil grove? I think I'm at a high enough level to do it but I don't want to miss out on a quest or something.

Ummm guys, I met Aelinore in the castle gardens then started the quest where you're asked to meet her in her room
and she's getting all sexy up in my face and saying she loves me! What in the what? Did I pass out for a few hours of game time when this epic romance took place? I hate to break it to you lady but I'm gay and will happily watch you get choked to death.
Such an awkward scene.
wow. according to the guide, loot chances in the everfall for good stuff are 2%. reminds me off plates and rubies in Monster Hunter. Lucky me found a Mage Staff "Frigid Finger" in a chest at chamber of fate, on 3 stars it got 142 strength, 745 magick. not bad and better than that i got, caus missing parts for the upgrade xD
and the hunt for loot goes on and on and on and on...

It's just an example of the games' excellent story telling. The acting of your silent protagonist in that scene was truly oscar-worthy.

I'm waiting for the right price maybe £20 used on ebay. By the time any decent FAQs are done it would be about that price.
I suspect the game has to have some sort of hierarchy that determines priority in the event of a tie. I checked my History in the main menu after reaching the final area and it said I had maxed the affinities of 7 characters, so apparently
the duchess arbitrarily had priority over the other 6. I'm pretty sure that Selene, Madeleine, Fournival, and Maximilian were four of the others, but I'm stumped as to who the two remaining unaccounted-for characters could be. Possibly Quina and the blacksmith whose son you revive with a Wakestone.
The game might also prioritize whoever you give
the Arisen's Bond
Mercedes never seems to come back and just exits stage left permanent-like, but at least the way I resolved their duel the Champion of the Night ended up dead. I intervened and won the duel and he died in the ensuing cutscene, but I don't know if he survives if you let them have it out without stepping in.
The various chambers are on various ledges, yeah. A lot of them look similar and the only one I bothered to memorize was the all-important Chamber of Lament, which is the protruding walkway about halfway down. Some of them seem to connect in strange ways. Most of the chambers are just giant monster closets for all intents and purposes, but the chambers of Remorse and Estrangement have the best merchants in the game.
This happened to me too.
How the Arisen explained the creepy beer-brewing witch to the duchess I cannot claim to understand. Or maybe she just didn't even say anything about it. You'd have to be pretty numb to displays of profound social maladjustment to develop a crush on the Arisen, after all.

Awesome, thanks for all the info.
I allowed the duel to play out - Mercedes lost and went home in defeat, but promised she'd be back with soldiers to help me against the dragon. The Champion declared his victory, talked some Salvation-babble, and walked off - never to be seen again.
Perhaps I'll meet either of them again someday.

I'll not hire anyone with a silly name in general really. I saw one earlier called "Grand DALFE!" replete with exclamation point and another simply called "GOD".
I was wearing a dress when this scene happened. I thought I was supposed to wear it to avoid the guards or something. It made the scene extra wacky.

That ending came out of nowhere. I liked it.

I just started and am enjoying it, but i am confused on a bunch of things. I just created my Pawn, and we just hit Level 7. But i can not figure out for the life of me where or what we are to do next? I look at the quest log, and it tells me i have a couple side quest that involve killing Spiders and Sea Birds or something. And the other thing is leveling up. How do i distribute my points?
That's kind of funny, really. The game really has a passion for forgetting cutscenes ever happened as soon as they're over.
Its steadfast refusal to adhere to any sort of coherent narrative structure is actually kind of endearing.

Just got my first dragonforged items this morning. The stats seem to have gone way up, but I haven't checked closely enough.

It goes past upgrade level 3 and dragon forged equipment is a huge upgrade in stats.
Ah, thanks didn't look at the other stats

Seriously GAF, one of the best ending sequences this gen and a great way to set up NG+
People are going to overlook the story initially, but dat ending @_@

Did you even try? Just touch the rift stone in the beach
Also, there's a 30 minute grace period to land your killing blow on the ur dragon, so anybody that joins during that period gets their kill and loot.

It's as if the cutscenes in the game exist entirely seperate from the game itself sometimes. Like how you could off any given bad guy at any given time, but your Arisen just stands there gritting his teeth at them.
Or how you're run out of the Duke's Demesne ot once, but twice, and allowed to saunter back immediately afterwards as though nothing happened.
Quick tip: If you press left/right on D-pad, you will yell for "Help!" ingame. And if you have a pawn that can heal, or cast enchancements on weapons, you can click the Help button and they will cast helpful spells like Heal, or weapon enhancement -- kind of nice when preparing to go into battle, cause they usually cast the buffs halfway through a battle on their own, or after a battle has been iniatied.
Minor quest spoilers for QUARRY:
Have you finished clearing the Quarry for the merchant? After finishing, an NPC will set up shop in the "Inn", or keep of the quarry area. Sells a lot of nice stuff, but not sure if they have any long bows.

They'll also use healing items on themselves if they're wounded.

I loved the Arisen's mo-cap in that scene.
Instead of saving her immediately he/she just slowly slinks back behind the blinds.
As if saying "this is fucked up, I really shouldn't be here right now."

:lol Greatest protagonist of all time.
Strider is kind of great, I like their skills better than Fighter, got 8 ranks from just killing everything on my way to shadowfort
What the hell, at level 33 my assassin is still rank 8. :/ Also have three ranks in Mystic Knight and Warrior, that might have something to do with it, but it still seems slow.

The last rank always take really long to get.

1 - You've done right by her and raised her attitude towards you. Either via gifts or by escorting her safely somewhere.
2 - I haven't seen a quest for it, but when you start the fight you'll get a generic "Ambush!" quest notification, and killing him will grant you money and XP.
Thanks man.Character --
Best female character I have seen in the game definitely, top notch work on making her look human.

This game is too addictive, damn.
Later i'll go in the pawn thread to share mine and search for others', although i'm still low level (27) so i doubt it'll be useful.

Anyone recently get your pawn returned by users marked as 'Private' with no rift crystals?

How are you guys getting such good screens of your pawns? Mine is extremely camera shy and will run the other way when I try to focus the camera on her.

someone hired my warrior and i got 16k crystals, neat.
it's getting harder to find more quest variety for me. i can only follow the story or finish kill quests.

Wait a few days at the inn - the quest will update a few times and tell you the day you need to report your findings. The game says you only have 4 days, but it felt more like 6 or 7 to me.

Are some guards just pissed at me for no reason or have I offended them?
I was randomly arrested in town one time when running up to the castle and another time when going into the castle through the side door after talking to a guy about a quest.
Are they pissed because (spoiler to do with the Duke's misses)

I chatted with her, gave her a gift and went to see her one night and then raised my sword to the duke when he went all creepy strangler on her?

No, they're weirdly okay with you after that incident. I'm not sure what you did. Did you get caught making a forgery? Accidentally throw at pawn at someone?
