Divinity Divinity: Original Sin - Enhanced Edition

[Black]

Let me tell you something, Wind-up toy + Featherfall is ought to be the best combo of all time, OF ALL TIME!

 

[Ninjerk]

Numbers please.

My witch could do 2000 damage with Oath of Desecration + Death Punch. No resists, no misses, 3 turn cooldown.
My pyro could destroy end game enemy packs with OoD + Meteor Shower without entering combat in 1 cast.
Sure resistances are a problem, but then there are summons. Undead Decapitator can can crit for ~400 damage.

I reached second map with melees and it is such a chore, really. Martial feels like worst skill tree. Scoundrel is decent at taking back ranks... if you act quickly and with precision... and enemies don't aggro on him... and you don't get random CC...

I don't have Death Punch yet - I've only just hit lvl15. My Flurry is already about 2000 with Oath though, around 1300-1500 without Oath.

Interestingly, so far, my experience is the opposite. Man-at-Arms is probably my favorite skill tree, personally. Flurry, Cripple, Ram, Rage, Phoenix Dive, you name it. At the level than I'm at, none of the elemental spells do enough damage for me and too many enemies have fire resistances (or are outright healed by fire), so I'm mostly using mages for buffs/debuffs and manipulating the battlefield.

Did you pump up your BB/WP? So far my MaA character has been CCed for more turns than not in battles against mages.

 

[Markman]

Protip if you hate slipping on ice and can't make nailed boots yet- if you take small steps (1 or 0AP only) your character will walk instead of running and won't slip.

I reloaded like 20 times cause of this shit. I knew about it, Madora gets cc'ed for 2 turns, im like fine, she can tank it out. After 2 turns I can move her, forget about it, click on enemy to attack, she runs, slips and its knocked out for another 2 turns. FUUUUUUU
F8.

I don't remember the exact numbers since I don't have the game running atm, but I think I have both BB and WP at 4 (including bonuses from gear). I do get Stunned or Frozen occasionally, but Purifying Fire (or any stuff that makes you warm/burning in case of Frozen) removes it easily. Or, and Doctor/First Aid help too.

 

[Sodafish]

What is CC?

 

[Excidium]

What is CC?

Crowd Control

 

[Shadenuat]

My chars had 5/5 and I still got some from time to time.
Shad rolls 37 to avoid knocking down, fail, needed: 130

How the fuck game makes rolls I don't get it...
right from beginning of the game simple stun arrow makes rolls like 100

 

[Aeschylus]

What is CC?

Short for crowd control, basically something that disables a character during combat for a time.

 

[Tigranes]

I knew I was getting behind the curve. Level 14, late Silverglen, just forged the SWORD OF PLANETS and enhanced with fire essence and tenebrium. Sigmund Freud now doubling his melee damage from ~100 to ~200.

Still not worrying too much about how to optimise the system, I've been saving up skill points to get to 5 in Marksman, Pyrotechnic, etc for their special talents, though it's probably smarter to invest some in Attack/Defense skills.

 

[Sodafish]

Thanks Excidium Aeschylus

I knew what people were referring to when saying CC, just couldn't figure out the acronym.

 

[Perkel]

97 hours in 10 days which gives 9,7 hour daily. Am i doing it right ?

Perfectly.

I've got to say game has probably one of the biggest OST i've heard. For every location there is like 2-3 tunes and quality of those tracks is superb too.

Nah. It's actually smaller than the previous Divinities. D:OS has 22 tracks. Div Div had 40something and Div2 had 30something.

 

[JasonNH]

What he was able to compose was really good though. Makes me wonder how great it would have been had Kirill not become ill. Just glad he's doing okay now though.

 

[Suicidal]

As I understand they've reused a lot of tracks from their other games since the number of different tracks in the game's data folder is close to 150.

I think Sven said somewhere that they had a lot more tracks in the game.
If I'm not mistaken then the actual soundtrack played in the game has a lot of old tracks from their previous games, too, not just the ones on the soundtrack that came with KS/collectors editions.
So depends on definition, I guess.

Yeah i heard that somewhere too. I think they also remixed and edited most of them


BTW: Leach is awesome because if enemy will try to bleed you will autoheal :D

 

[Hobo Elf]

They reused a bunch of old songs.

Can't wait to do a second run with rogue and witch. Looking foward to play with companions too.

The Witchcraft bleed spell will fully heal a Leech character b/c it hits like 100 times for 30 hp or something.

 

[Perkel]

So i had big fight with those Immaculates near castle.

Among them there was Immaculate Wolfmaster with two wolves. I killed him and wolves stopped attacking. After a fight both of them run to their master dead body and start to howl.

Yeah that is what happened.

Love the nice small touches. Animals run away from you, pigs eat everything, corpses included.

 

[Perkel]

Yeah and rats actually eats cheese which lies on floor or table.
