Temporal is no brainer as a melee support psi. Psychokinesis also has access to some nice stuns which are always welcome for melee.

Ok, cruising around on my jet-ski with spear in hand, psi-blasting sea-serpents has got to be some of the coolest shit ever.

Oh god, I was going to go shotgun but now I also need to roll a spear and grenade character named Santiago

Styg please for the love of god, add mouse keybindings to speed up and speed down option. I can bind keyboard keys, thats fine, but why not mouse? I use mouse 4 and mouse 5 buttons to speedup things in speedhack, im so accustomed to it, its so comfy to use :(

Is it a viable weapon choice? To me it looks like a poor man's assault rifle.

Yeah, SMGs are very good. But it is a different playstyle. SMGs don't have a strength requirement, and they are better suited for stealthy highly mobile builds. ARs are better suited for tin cans.

I tried to bind mouse wheel up and down for speed up and down, but I could not. Would be nice for sure.

Hey Fenix, you have a build for Psi + Shotgun?

I do.
It's usual squishy type, not the best for Expedition, seriously.
But to make it mire sturdy you need to compromise it in something.




Now I am regretting picking Tranquil.

Tranquility is superior now, Psychosis lags miles behind sadly.

Problem is Psi builds dont usually go for high Perception, which is presumably needed for shotgun.

It's not Psi with Shotgun, it's Shotgun with Psi - you don't need Will more than 3 that way.

Had to go out, I'm back now. So, my character. How do I start building psi + melee (spears or machetes, dunno which yet)? Which of the psi skills interest me? What attributes should I go for?
First you ar interested in Temporal Manipulations, it's useful for all.
For that 3 Will is absolutely OK, don't neeed more.
Spears simpler then machete, which are require much thinking, because you need plan B for times when your Flurry willmiss and goes on 3 turn cd.
For machete go for Dex, but you can go for Str too, it's just a noobtrap.
For spears you can go Str or Dex too, Str is you want to complement spears with Riot Armor, which was significantly buffed.
Or you can abandon Riot Armot and like, go for Dex and Spear Throw feat.

Which Psi schools can best support my melee build?

Temporal Manipulations!

Man, some of the new songs on the soundtrack are really great. Huge improvement over the original's in a lot of ways. In fact, from what I'm seeing of my initial 4 hours of new content, Expedition seems to improve upon the excellent foundation the OC laid down in almost every way. Absolutely loving it.

Not even gonna reach Expedition content today, I don't think. But having a blast with the game nonetheless. Playing a new build feels so different!

I haven't gotten to the new stuff yet but is there still no way to trigger bear traps if you can't disarm them besides walking over and taking damage? Why can't I poke it with a stick? I can throw grenades at mines...

You can disarm them and take them home.

DEX is 8 therefore the APs of .44 Hammerer should be reduced to 29.

Is this a bug or I'm losing my mind!?

That build is squishy as fuck. Don't recommend it for a beginner.

Yeah. I've spent 6 hours with the game and I'm at the 5th build. I do enjoy the game but fml.

DEX doesn't reduce the base AP cost, equip it to see a difference.

Nothing changed.

Look at the number in the weapon slot.

Edit: You are right. I did not see it.

The correct reduced 29 AP appears during combat.

It works. Thank you.

But this shit is non-intuitive as hell. It was always like this?

You don't have to go into turn-based mode to check, look at the weapon slot. Next to the fist, man.

And yes, it was always like this. I don't find it non-intuitive at all, it's an important distinction when you account for base AP cost reduction mods and the fact that DEX value can change over time.

In a nutshell, it's a shorter range AR that can burst A LOT more and doesn't reload when hit with a Crippling Strike.

In other words, it is a poor man's AR.

The AR obliterates everything you point it at by midgame and never really stops, unless it's been massively nerfed since I last played.
