[FreeKaner]

Diversity squad added an Asian-American, a Basketball-American and an Irishman.

Weird, the game's companion portrait directory has been erased. I guess they finally realized they were spoiling them or something?

New player portraits:



And there's a bunch of new watercolor-style NPC portraits.

How diverse...

They had to add that 'The female fedora' nose ring.

and an Irishman.

The proper denomination is Hobbit.

 

[FreeKaner]

I actually like the Chinese portrait.

Someone try playing out the Steel Garrote paladin order and report back please

 

[Lacrymas]

They've added quite a bit of passive talents to Priests, including a passive which reduces your casting times and another which increases the range of your casts.

A bit early to say, but if you happen to playtest the priest, can your report on this change ?
I mean, that sounds like nobrain choices for a spellcaster, but I can't remember what other choices the player has if he doesn't go with these.

We are hitting levels of incline that shouldn be possible

 

[Lacrymas]

I'm more disappointed at the apparent lack of Skaen Sneak Attack. So disappointed in fact, I did the unthinkable and wrote on their forums.

I will download it tonight and report back tomorrow, provided I am not beaten to the punch.

 

[yes plz]

are those new portraits backer ones or something? the middle one looks really out of place -- the angle making it look like a selfie someone took.

 

[Once more unto the Codex]

Oh shit, Steel Garrote is in?!?! Download incoming.

I don't see either Woedica nor Steel Garrote, but I didn't toy with the PoE1 histories (which are in), so maybe they're in, who knows. The console commands for money doesn't seem to work anymore.

 

[Daedalos]

Tried the new beta patch and I'm happy to report that the performance is much much improved! The game also looks somewhat better. So far so good. Making a paladin and trying out the new stuff.

wait really, why did the show this on the patch notes then?

Steel Garrote Lay on Hands is now a 2 point cost ability.

 

[AwesomeButton]

I have a couple of queries: what is the status of the recovery mechanic? Is it still around? It was quite horrible in PoE. Also, what about the stamina bar? It was quite silly. Is it still there?

No, they've scrapped all that, and we are back with personal initiative rounds.



I'm joking. Stamina is out, thankfully. Recovery times have been reigned in and slowed down but there is pressure from a newly formed camp of "PoE `purists`" that they are sped back up again. Fortunately they are moddable now.

Spotted in the extended patch notes:

All bombs can now be reverse pickpocketed and will explode properly when done so.

 

[CptMace]

Why, I completely missed that post on SA boards, unless you surprisingly failed your duty and never reported it in this very thread. Bad!

We get to enjoy even more of Haberkorn sweet voice acting though
