Skills look fine, it really depends on what CAs you're using and what mods you took. Did you take damage on the Incandescent Skin gold mod? What CA are you using for killing mobs?
Appropriate gear can make a difference. + to relevant combat arts if you can take the regen hit, +all skills, and lastly +fire/+all damage.

Yes I'm using it but it's nowhere near 2 seconds nor 300 :/ this is my blazing tempest ;
And honestly, it's not the skill I use the most. How can you have it at 2 seconds? I only ate 6 runes and i have 26 in focus. I don't get it.

I don't have the gold mod for Incandescent Skin yet. I'm at silver.
For killing mob I use fireball as this is my quickest regenerating skill. But it's not much efficient honestly.
This is my fireball stats ;
mods (not shown on picture) are ; explosion, fusillade, hot pursuit
Thanks for helping out.
Since it's been a while one glance at my character told me all I needed to know.
Equips. :lol
I'm level 32 and my damage is ridiculous compared to you luckily this is easy to fix.
What I did was buy items that gave +3 Bargaining or +3 General skills to boost my Bargaining up. Once it was high enough I could buy +All Skill, and socketed items from the vendor.
Sockets are SO SO important. 2 Sockets + Black smith can give you -25% Regen Time on a single piece or armor, not to mention it might already have + Skills, or -regen % already.
Right now get socketed items, forge them, and pump Focus (If that lowers regen time).

Because so many things give regen penalty, from armour to eating runes. You might think your regen time is great, level up once and pump your stats/change your equipment only to find your regen time has seriously messed up. Also lower regen times make your better spells and abilities available more of the time, increasing overall efficacy.
Yes it's the default thing from the blacksmith.Shoogoo said:
Since your CA are still pretty low on runes, fast regen time will basically double your damage (since you can just spam the skill). Once the regen is low enough that lowering it doesn't matter, you can start raising the skill again for more damage (I keep mine at 2s).
The Higher Skill in Focus and Lore no doubt also helps giving me +40-60% damage or so also.
The All Skills give points into everything (duh) so from them I get:
-Lower armor regen penalty
-More damage, more critical chance, less regen time (Focus/Concentration)
-Etc.
*I noticed you didn't pick regen time for Blazing Tempest :[
Not sure if this issue has been addressed yet, but my lvl 16 Temple Guardian decided to get stuck in one place... Even after leaving the game and loading and I'm still stuck in 1 spot.
I exited a cellar and then bam, I was stuck. Has there been a fix discovered for this? I'm playing the 360 version.
EDIT: well I'm still stuck even after using the booster/hover talent for the Guardian... I hover to a different spot and still can't move, or even mount my horse.

I didn't think regen was recommended as a mod for BT, with GI properly levelled up and modded I'm sure you're more than covered.Shoogoo said:

I'm wondering what kind of playtimes people are getting with this game? How many hours to beat it? At what level can it be beaten? How many hours to get to level 100, for instance? Level 150? Are we talking dozens of hours?
Shoogoo said:
Resilience for GI and I took intensity for IS but (almost) anything critical is always good too.
Don't worry too much about the regen times man. You're still really low. They'll come way down with some focus and as GI increases. Also try to equip some +fire dmg items to bump the power up.
Shoogoo said:
It'll show up in your stats. Bring up the "Overview" window and press "RT". there are several pages of bonuses/stats. In there will be Additional Fire damage or something like that. Just a note, if you're only getting one page of stats remove your buffs. It's a bug that while buffs are running some screens don't respond/scroll properly.
Cahill said:
Indeed! I had no idea that it was due to the buffs.
So I tried lowering all my CA's with the socketed armor pieces + I found a third piece of Celdrahil and thus benefits from my first set bonus. I could lower fireball to 0.9s, blazing tempest to 2.3 and incendiary shower to 2.3 or 2.5, can't remember. I'm doing better than before thanks to you guys.
I have 28 in bargaining now. But I didn't find any + all skills yet :s
FUUUUU! Last night I was just chillin' with my 62 Ser. Doing a few boss runs etc. My chest piece at the time was part of a set I wasn't using with some pointless atts and base armour of 194. I killed an elite kobold and it dropped an interesting sounding piece of armour....it was the 5th part of my set I'm hunting AND had a whopping base armour of 692! Quite a step up.
I bought the PC version at release but it doesn't run amazingly well on my computer...so I'm thinking about getting the 360 version. Does anyone have input on that version? The reviews make it sound like it's BETTER than the PC version, but I just can't imagine that with a Diablo style game and a controller.
Fleet of Foot said:
I'm level 114 (on my single player TG) and it's taken me over 7 days of REAL TIME to get there. (I'd have to check when I get home, as it could be more). This is a game that will last a LONG time.
I've explored 77.6% of the map, and that takes a LONG time to do.
Mudo said:
Controls do work great. No issues.
Unfortunately the 360 version chugs frames quite a bit and has a lot of nasty screen tear. Also low res textures...your mileage may vary depending on how your PC version runs. I would definitely rent it on 360 first before you buy it, especially if you are having technical problem issues on your pc. This game is great fun to play, but not exactly technically proficient.

so deep silver now owns the scared 2 ip?
you think we will get the xp on consoles? Any euro gaf more familiar with these devs have anything to tell?

I've played both, and think it controls much better on the 360. Also don't have much problem with framerates, but there's plenty of tearing if you care about that.Mudo said:
Deep Silver is a publisher, not a developer. It's possible they could contact another dev to port it. I think it would depend on console version sales.ZombieSupaStar said:
roxya said:I was never keen on gold modding GI. I just picked run speed for the hell of it. You could look at putting it into Shadow Step, breaking free of roots is pretty cool, though I modded cooldown because I love teleporting over fences and stuff
You make it look like you made 50 HE
Thx though. I sometimes use shadow step but not enough to mod it. Is resilience that bad?Resilience - Reduces the impact and duration of incoming detrimental effects. (30% + 0.3% per CA level reduction on debuffs)
I suppose it reduce the time of poison, fire, root, -???-, effects?
Ettenra said:
It plays great on the 360 controller and yes it can be picked up for a bargin right now. It's also one of the most awesome multiplayer games I've played.
Not sure how the XP allocation works exactly in multiplayer. Someone who is more of an expert should know. It seems fine to me tho' as everyone seems to be happy enough with the loot and XP allocation in multiplayer whenever I've played.

This dropped to $45 new at EB in Canada. 'bout time.
Stats change depending on item level yes, also some bonuses can stack or differ. (PC)Shoogoo said:Damn now there is something I wonder. I've dropped this piece yesterday
But mine is nowhere near 180AL and the stats sucks compared to that. Does it change based on your level?
*Did you happen to find any +skill rings or ammys yet? It can take a couple warps or retry's to find em in the shop.
Hazaro said:
But the item doesn't evolve according to your level then? If I have a sucky helm it will remain a sucky helm until I find a newer, higher level helm. Right?
Hazaro said:
Yes, I can't thank you enough. I have +3 on my armor, legguard, and arms. +3 on a sword, +2 on 4 rings and +2 on 2 amulets. My fireball goes for 800 dmg, regens in 0.8s and I walk through the game. I think I'll rush to the next difficulty level because it has become too easy.
Also, I don't know exactly who is Spiiike in my friend list but I'm sorry. There is a reason I never added any gaffer on this game. I play this with my gf and we only have one gold sub. And even if we had two, I'm not sure we could play over xbox live on the same console. She could come as a guest, maybe, but that wouldn't be fair for her to start a new character (that can't be saved either).
edit : another question. What's the max + all skills for rings and ammys? is it +2?
Alright.. I've got a stupid question. I hear all this negative talk about "eating runes", but I don't see anything on screen in the description that says why that would be bad. I'm wondering what the advantage of slotting a rune (say, Nether Allegiance for Shadow Warriors) instead of going to the blacksmith and getting Enhance to bring my regen rate down?
1) Items evolve according to your Survival Bonus. The higher it is the more bonus you get out of your items. So for example an item with Attack +20 might increase to say +22 after SB increases a certain amount. SB will not create bonuses on items however, it can only enhance already existing ones. So if an item has shit bonuses it won't gain better ones unless you actually slot some on (or obviously find a better/higher level item).Shoogoo said:
2) There is no real cap. Changes depending on level/difficulty/EP/Bargaining. I've seen +22 all skill ammies before.
