K', but what's the argument here? Do you find that cloak in a haystack in some village?

I started a new game and was looking forward to when I could kick Amiri out of the party for Jumilost - she just isn't growing on me like Minsc did. Pre-patch I remember an event occuring with Jubilost:
If you cleared location before troll crysis started you should revisit it for Jubilost.
I started a new game and was looking forward to when I could kick Amiri out of the party for Jumilost - she just isn't growing on me like Minsc did. Pre-patch I remember an event occuring with Jubilost:
Where he was attacked at the river crossing
But this time I got an encounter with Bartholomew:
Where he gets attacked by trolls

Both events led to the location
of the troll lair
. Please don't tell me there's a bug where the game thinks I let Jubilost down and I wont be able to get him in my party. As bad as Amiri and Valerie are, I'd probably replace one with Tristian and just let him stand there casting healing in battles. Or I'd rather stick to a party of 4 than take the ditsy whore and her orc.
Jubilost will always get attacked at the river crossing.
He will only join you right away if you save his cart. Otherwise he'll go to the capital and only join you later.

Thanks - I realized I had forgotton to turn on the 'show location names' option. They must have added the Bartholomew quest, because I did it exactly the same the last time.
No, the Bart quest isn't new, it just only triggers if you take too long to find the troll lair from another source and take care of the problem.

P:K items are litterally throwed in the game with no real logic.

75% of the game is +1 +2 stuff

suddenly you start find +5 stuff with extra elemental damage and other enchantement on top.

like you found A SINGLE MASTERWORK BARDICHE IN THE ENTIRE GAME, then in chapter 5 you fiund 3 bardiche +5 and 3d6 extra damage.

So I went buddy-buddy with Armag. I SURE FUCKING HOPE he keeps his promise of "keeping my borders" safe, knowing what happens next.
e: I seem to keep losing hundreds of BP for no apparent reason.

It's likely that the devs didn't take their time to properly distribute the loot in later chapters. They also didn't have the time to look at the distribution, to fill the gaps, etc... to make the progression more smooth between chapters/levels and between all weapon types. I wouldn't be surprised if they were aware of this issue, even planned to do it but simply ran out of time. Just like they ran out of time for proper beta testing before release. The game was clearly rushed before it was ready, it was probably barely out of alpha when they had to release it.

The whole Order of the Rack business is bullshit. I want my guards to seize that nigger and her cronies, draw and quarter a bunch of em and send the whole group back in a box.

Dragon drop's such an awesome cursed armor, it's a shame you can't get it early on ( Altough maybe with stealth?) I'm a sucker for a cursed Items. It punishes you for good deeds! Awesome.

Dweomercats are nearly not as numerous or uncontrollable in fight as anything in PoE.

It's still shit lazy design, same as spawning enemies behind you with no warning mid-fight. That gives me fucking flashbacks to Dragon Age 2.

What is this? I killed the dragon but I must've just ignored it, and I deleted that save.

If nothing else, it is bullshit that you can't take an option like "thanks for the heads-up, but I won't allow you to harass my citizens, we'll take over the investigation and let you know, now hit the bricks bitch" as a [Lawful] character.

I think you were intended to get a lot of +3 and +4 items from artisans. You do, I guess, but it's very random and not always helpful.
Like my first playthrough I never even got the +4 Bastard Sword with +6 Cha that's clearly meant for Valerie, so it would be useful to any party - but I got a +2, +3, and +4 Kama. I don't have a monk in my party, what the fuck is that all about!?

So can she become a paladin or not? I searched around the net and found only retarded non-answers by the usual mouthbreathers. Because otherwise I don't see what Cha would do for her.

Nonsense, dweomer cats teleporting other enemies in the encounter behind your front line is one of the coolest ability uses in the game. If anything enemy mages or gishes should also use dimension door instead of hitting Valerie pinata.

Ninja enemies are shit, but enemies who can deconstruct tank and spank by actually using abilities is good design.

I don't believe she can, no. I think that I got the "best" ending to her quest (or at least the most LG), and her alignment didn't change, just her attitude.
Charisma is her advisor stat, though, and one of the best uses for her is to take all of the Charisma-based Fighter debuff feats: Dazzling Display, Dreadful Carnage, Shatter Defenses, and Cornholing Smash.

I never realized advisor skill depends on stats?? Holy shit.
Regent: CHA
Councilor: WIS
General: STR
Treasurer: INT
High priest: WIS
Grand diplomat: CHA
Magister: INT
Warden: CON
Curator: CHA
Minister: DEX

Your NPC advisors can be ranked up with Projects to compensate for the fact that you can't give them +Stat items.

This just shows that randomized loot in this genre is fucking retarded and needs to be removed asap.

I hope you agree though, that having Dweomercats teleporting to spellcasters when they cast a spell, and having Octavia unable to disable the cantrip casting seems a bit retard.

Both dueling sword and elven blade have GREAT endgame options.
Yeah, even mid-game there's tons of dueling swords and elven blades for some reason, as opposed to pretty much all other weapons, with few exceptions.
