KickStarter Grim Dawn

[ArchAngel]

wait you did SoT Rape room with 4000 hp? Lol
At lvl 33? Lol

You deserve that death lol

 

[Filthy Sauce]

OK IM DONE WITH HARDCORE (will wait for Trainer)

Depends on what you didn't like about PoE.

I thought it was too grey, and kind of boring. There was a lot of skill, but some of them didn't make sense or changed a lot, i.e. too easy to see the cookie-cutter build. I thought that the game was well-thought, but in the end felt bland. Is Grim Dawn more ''spicy'' ?

Probably not. Skill variation is one of the weakest points of Grim Dawn.

What's the multiplayer like?

Also, how does the game (single/multiplayer) stack up to Titan Quest?

 

[Jaesun]

Just beat that Warden guy, what an asshole

Thankfully they put that desk there to help block some of his attacks....

Indeed. I'm playing as a demolitionist, and it's way more advantageous to put all the skill points in the same couple of skills. Grenades just wreck everything so far, and are much better than canisters or mortars.

Ivan no need to wait for trainer, this cheat table for cheat engine can revive HC characters http://forum.cheatengine.org/viewtopic.php?t=587065

 

[Ivan]

I'm stoopid. How do I use this?

 

[Jaesun]

These random lock-up's are really fucking annoying....

 

[Ivan]

you talking about the stuttering?

 

[Jaesun]

No. The game will just completely freeze. Period. I'm now trying windowed mode - borderless. See how that works (I was using full screen).

 

[RoBoBOBR]

Ivan launch the game, launch Cheat Engine, open GrimDawn.exe in it. then load Cheat Table (open folder icon), there will be a number of options. You need bottom three - HC death guard and playing with dead HC characters. Load your "dead" chara, open 3rd tab in stats, confirm that "deaths" reads 0, save and exit.

hard core save cumming time

Don't think I'm getting much mileage out of the shaman subclass for my soldier. Wasted a lot of points on a basically just an unreliable heal proc and an extra stun. The regen aura sucks. Nightblade would probably be much more useful with the on-demand heal and the debuff aura. Gonna finish it once with this setup then respec for another run. Cheat Engine lets you reassign masteries, I assume?

I would not take Shaman unless you planned on using its abilities as your main source of damage. Shammy has some nice utility, but it's very limited. The regen aura is fucking awful and no one puts more than 1 point in it to unlock Heart of the Wild. You should cap out Heart of the Wild since it gives 40% more max HP, which is amazing. Primal Bond is really good because it gives lots of Physical damage and damage absorption%. If I had to pick one exclusive buff between Oleron's Rage and Primal Bond, I'd take Primal Bond. I would not take Feral Hunger for the reason you said it's bad: it's unreliable. It doesn't proc off some skills like Primal Strike, either. Wendigo Totem is very reliable and good if you want some source of healing.

Same here. I think i'll leave the game for a while until some patches roll out. It's not like there aren't pretty similar games.

This is a known problem with B31, lots of people reported it. Create is working on solving it. It is somehow connected with using more than one CPU core. People reported getting rid of it by turning off extra cores in windows after you start the game but game performance also drops as a result.

So, no difference in playing it borderless?

Don't know. I only know what some people found to help them. Maybe borderless helps others.

Played some Occultist. Game looks gorgeous, the tapestries and mosaics in the ruins are great. The levels look hand crafted, exploring is fun and discovering loot and lore text in the most unlikely of places keeps you playing "just for another hour".
Pet AI is so so. My birdbrained avian companion will not attack and when he does, he seems to do it in random. The dog is somewhat better, always being in the centre of battle and pulling aggro off me.

The pathfinding for the player character is great, I tried clicking on items behind fences and on ladders and the game would choose the correct path every time.
Not a bad game but the builds are convoluted, especially if you consider the abilities you get from improved items(nice concept btw, you add a claw on a sword and it becomes stronger).

Another good concept are the shrines, the loot is sweet and the points are a pleasant diversion from the skill point sinks that are passive abilities.

Not sure if you know but if you right click the pet portraits in the upper right of the screen you can set their disposition. You can make them defensive/aggressive/normal.

People are too busy playing the game to answer my question.

This is a good sign.

 

[Ivan]

had a really fun intense fight with Flamelurker. I think we both killed each other at the same time

though getting to him wasn't that fun. Maybe i''ll try running straight to him since unlike the Sot, you don't get locked into rooms here.

Spoiler

 

[Hobo Elf]

You do get locked into the rooms with bosses.
