Is Capcom fucking serious? Who would pay real money for this shit?
Those items cost next to nothing in the game.

Chill out man, they're enhanced to Level 2.
I think they're free anyway right? I found the farewell stuff in my first playthrough at Cassardis
Edit: by free I mean they were in my game without downloading anything or preordering, they were sold by the merchant

Yeah, they're in the game already. I think the DLC just puts them in your item storage, but you pay real money for it...
lol, I realize you're being sarcastic but I'm not mad or anything I'm just shocked at the ridiculousness of it all

I always equated that to when the game was "silent" installing. It usually happens to me after a quest, I run through a gate and say for e.g I attempt to talk to someone, it slows to a complete crawl with absolutely nothing happening. Then I realised what it was...
I stopped wearing griffin armor to get my weight down so i could sprint more to make running around the map easier. It does make things a bit better, though i still hate the system. I migrated to a Mage Knight from a Mage Archer, both classes are fun, though Mage Knight is a bit similar to regular sword/shield people.
The pop in is almost too much for me. I've had countless times where I ran to a quest spot on the map and I had to wait 5+ seconds for the object/person to spawn right where I was standing. That's unacceptable to me.

Been quite enjoying the DLC quests, rewards aren't great but finding all the medals is tricky and kinda fun -some are really well hidden in areas you wouldn't know were reachable.
Just got 2 regular message board quests left to do, then I think I'm done. You make so much money off of the last few and they real easy as most monsters are regular spawns in the Everfall.

Wait, is it better on 360? I have no friends with this game so it's all down to performance for me. That screen-tearing though...

I played it a bit on the 360 over the weekend. Pop-in seems about the same when it is installed. - I imagine its worse when not installed?

I never noticed anything other than a slight blink, maybe 200-300ms for a vendor to show. Do you have space on your HD? I'm using a 7200RPM 32MB hybrid and the performance it great. The worst I ever notice is some audio stuttering during auto-saves.

Could someone help me out with a quest - it is in Gran Soren, and involves a child that runs very fast. This part of the quest starts on top of a roof where you talk with him and he runs away. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do. Run up to him and grab/speak to him? I can't seem keep up with him. Attacking him alerts the guard. Is this a glitch? Thanks.
omg someone tell me there's a way to get out of harpies' sleep lock
Soloing a dozen of them is driving me insane
Yeah you have to grab him

Don't attack him, just run up to him and give him a bump. That'll knock him down and all you have to do is press the grab button when he's down to get him.

The first time you see him, you just approach him. When you meet him under the bridge, you need to grab him. It shouldn't be too difficult, though he can be squirrely.
I want some meaty quests with new monsters. I am not buying anymore of the weapon packs and I am not buying the rest of these 'From a Different Sky' quests until I see if there is something worthwhile at the end. No point in paying just to go to a location and find a medallion over and over.

Thanks guys, I'll try it tonight. So what happens when you go to prison? Any detrimental effects or other changes?

Other than using Bringabouts? And using gear or rings that help fight the affects of sleep?

Not really. You just get stripped of your equipment and you can bribe a guard to let you out. You can then put your equipment back on after you leave.

Interestingly enough, I maxed out the prison garb with enhancement and its surprisingly resistant to petrification if I recall. Not home to double check.
hmm, I'll look into the rings, I think I've used the same rings my entire first play through lol
Edit: hey I just found some bringbouts right outside windbluff :0
Need some advice.
I started this game as a mage/sorcerer and am TOTALLY wrecking shop with this chick, with the thought of moving to magic archer in the long run. However, I am simply bored with the mage classes and wish I'd reversed my pawn (fighter/warrior) and my main character. I have some really cool stuff from soul flayer canyon so starting over makes me want to cringe. However, all the cool gear is for fighter types
But my main character has no strength/stamina so moving from mage to another vocation to fighter/warrior seems incredibly stupid.
Level 34, haven't met the duke yet, but have uncovered most of the map south of Gran Soren. Really would like to go back and play as a fighter/warrior with the option of mystic knight and assassin, or even ranger if so desired.
Should I continue along the path to Mystic Archer, and just play a second game later with the other vocations? Or should I just start over now with the other type of class before unlocking more of the game?
I hate the sorcerer/mage thing because all I do is sit back and cast spells while everyone else does the work... can I save this game and come back to it with a USB drive or something?

Just switch to the classes you want to play, I don't think the stats really matter too much since the game isn't really that hard med game, and you have pawns to compensate your weakness. Also if you go Mystic knight, you could probably put those magic into use.

Strength has no bearing on a Magic archer. Even if you have knives, most of their skills depend on a high magic stat, if you want to be a Fighter/Warrior you can, with each level up you gain strength and defense stats a Mage would not receive. So if that's the route you want to go you can, just do lots of side quests, kill tons of big monsters, and in no time you'll have great strength and defense stats, but level 34? Hmmmm. You'll have to stay a Fighter/Warrior till Lvl 68 to see good results.
The search system definitely needs more work, I find myself just don't bother with it and pick whatever the 10 person that comes up on the list out of like 100, I don't know how to search for more

nope 5 more to go
How awful.
You can try the Mystic Knight if you want to be a bit more of a melee character with countering abilities. The magick stats you gained will be useful with the class as well.
You can hit up Mystic Knight if you want some melee. Ultimately all their best skills tend to be the ranged Great Cannon / group buffs, though.

If you have a separate storage device you can just make a new game on that.

Can someone explain the mystic knight class to me? Like what stats you should shoot for and how exactly it plays? Also, the same for assassin, thanks!

I think inclination is a very important aspect so they should have definitely included it in the search parameters. :/

In the mean time, what they should do. Is people NEED to stop giving Mages and Sorcerers inclinations. PERIOD. Leave them blank, use the potion and leave them blank. I only hire Mages and Sorcerers unless they have similar traits to my pawn or they have nothing at all.
This is how it goes for me. Cool looking Sorcerer. Check. Skills seem varied. Check. Armor is varied. Check. Scather and Pioneer?! GTFO....

What a terrible night to have a curse...
Seriously though, fighting huge monsters in dark forests and dungeons has been some of the most tense and exciting gameplay I've seen in a while. That and stumbling onto the set of Crouching Goblin, Hidden Ballista.
Yea I saw a lot of rangers with random Medicant, Pioneer, and guardian or something so I ended up not hiring that class lol
