Eternity Pillars of Eternity + The White March Expansion Thread

Is there a good strategy for upscaled Elmshore? Facing 11-12 enemies at once, 3 of them Adragans is quite overwhelming. My party is level 11, so I thought I wouldn't have any huge issues but they totally roflstomp me. Large groups of other enemies can be split by setting an ambush at some distance and kiting towards it but this little trick doesn't work against Petrify spammers that have 110 Acc.

To be honest, I very rarely had to resort to kiting or any other cheesy tactics. Fought Adragans in Od Nua without any problems but not upscaled and not in such numbers.

Any suggestions?

 

Don't fight them?

Most of the enemies in that area can be safely walked around and avoided. Maybe come back later if you really feel the need to kill every enemy on every map, though it's certainly not necessary to hit max level.

 

If I wanted to avoid hard fights, I'd simply play on Story Mode. )

Anyway, I can beat them if I put heavy armor on everyone for more DR and use a defensive formation with tankier characters in a circle around squishies. Still, Aloth and Sagani went down eventually which isn't great. Usually I don't have to rest after a trash fight if I start it with ~80% of party health pool and quite a few spells left.

 

Pull of Eora + AoE killing field (layer debuffs and damage, take your pick from druid and wiz spells). You do need to bring out the big guns for them, but that's what they're for. Immunity against Petrification helps too (spell or scroll), but you shouldn't need more than one at the start.

 

Not if you want to do some of the quests in there.

Yeah, it's the PDF.

 

Are they trying to one-up InXile with a PDF?

 

But is it a PDF?

 

What else would it be?

 

Ok, I just downloaded this pdf. Weird.

Lets see what is this shit.

 

Holy shit! This is pure gold!

 

That's so fucking hilarious. That tester is a fucking slob!

 

Where is he anyway? He didn't do even do any interviews around E3, did he leave the studio in the hands of the son he always wanted?

 

He wasn't at E3, so that's not surprising. Or maybe someone finally managed to make him realize his tendency to ramble and he's decided to work on that before doing another interview?

 

Maybe they need to contact Beamdog and produce a line of peanut butter merchandise.

I'm a bit confused by the steamspy chart. From 7/31 to 8/1 the owners # drops by 12k... that doesn't actually mean 12k people refunded, does it? Given that the margin of error is 24k, I don't know what, if anything, can be read into it.

 

Congrats to Obsidian for finally winning the Volourn Million or Bust challenge after only nearly 2.5 years.

 

What was that?

 

He'd keep saying "A million or bust" with regard to whether or not Divinity: Original Sin would be as successful as Larian's previous games. I think maybe Pillars got involved somewhere too or maybe that was all just me.

 

Obs prolly has beat that challenge a while ago with GOG. When steamspy was around 900k Feargus said it sold 1 mil in an interview around figstarter.

Yes, but it probably reached 1m at some point before now.

 

What people said above -- they must have broken 1 million copies some time ago, if you take GOG copies into account. I was expecting something more celebratory as an announcement. Probably in the next Deadfire update.
