Divinity Divinity: Original Sin - Enhanced Edition

The other annoying thing is shops don't restock over time, just as you level up.

 

[Raghar]

Shops restocking only on level up is idiocy which kills suspension of disbelief.

anyone playing this on a shit PC? Of course there isn't a demo as usual

 

[Raghar]

You need at least 4 GB RAM.

There always are demos.

"Shops restocking only on level up is idiocy which kills suspension of disbelief."

Are you kidding me? You are playing a game with talking snowmen guardian, a game where you can block enemies off with boxes using your mind, and you can create lava out of nothing amongst other things but THAt ruins your suspension of disbelief?


OMG Codex and Internet. Never change. The laughs keep coming.


Anyways, on a positive note, I do love the little secrets you can find every now and again. Good stuff.

Question: Is there any reason to hold on to inert stones?

 

[Haba]

Well, it makes it easier for you to count how many stones you've gobbled up. You need a certain amount.

 

[Serus]

The other annoying thing is how there are only 13 rogue/ranger skills compared with man-at-arms and spells.

On the other side, Man-at-arms skills are the only skills based on strength. A dex-based charachter can easily take all the non-weapon specific skills from both marksman and scoundrel, a man-at-arms may need some points in other stats to use anything outside man-at-arms skills.

Get a better PC, poorfag.

 

[TwinkieGorilla]

Having a hell of a time understanding how "invisibility" spell works. Trying to avoid the invulnerable death knights in the mine and my only interpretation so far is that it doesn't work.

 

[Volourn]

It works. But, if you do any action (even non hostile) it seems to go bye be. This emans even if you recast it before duration runs out. L0L

 

[Sodafish]

No it's only attacking/casting and initiating dialogue which breaks it. It should get you past them no problem.

So,you're saying that shops are too realistic? Like when you go to a shop in real life and you don't have enough money to buy something then when you have enough money they are out of the item and when they finally restock it they have it in all size and colors except the one you want?

But, yeah it can be quite annoying. In one of my games I could never find an Oath of Desecration book anywhere while in another one it seems to be the only thing that the vendor sells. Madness.

I wonder if there is a way to mod an interdimensional vault into the game so that you can swap things with your other characters... *he said innocently*

 

[Volourn]

"No it's only attacking/casting and initiating dialogue which breaks it."

Nope. Recasting the spell will break it. In combat, I was invisisble, and walked through an AOO area and got attacked. LMAO

\But, passingt eh knights were easy,

 

[TwinkieGorilla]

Yeah, well...it didn't! FFS. I had to use a combination of haste + sneak in order to make it to the chasm.

Hmm weird. Are you using the thief skill or spell (although one would think they are the same)?

Pretty sure it restocks every two hours of gametime or as you level up, whichever happens first.

 

[VentilatorOfDoom]

First, it's dumb to start a rogue without hide in shadows, second on each level up inventories of vendors restock, including skill books or, say, legendary items. And yes, you need to reload until you get what you want. Not a fan of that system, but it was exactly so in Divine Divinity, it was so in Div2 and it is so now, so don't act surprised, ohmergawd it's random

It is dumb, if you know all the skills and playstyle beforehand. This time i did not read enough about the system and jumped coop, so restarting is not an option.
Second, certain skills never appear - like Walk in Shadows. No matter how often you reload. Atleast not in Cyseal..

 

[Metro]

It's not surprising, rather disappointing Larian can't improve their itemization mechanics.

 

[Black]

Yup, you'll only find Eye Gouge in the Black Cove in the beginning.

 

[set]

Walk in the Shadows was sold by the "witch" vendor in the 2nd floor of the Inn of my newest save game.

 

[Septaryeth]

I finished the game before the huge balancing patches kicked in, and used the fate unlocked code.
So no more multiple books from teller of secrets, the void dragon actually summons challenging mobs.
Anything else in specific I need to looked out for?
