Underrail: The Incline Awakens

[Sykar]

Is there anywhere a list of maximum for crafting, social and subterfuge skills needed which is updated for Expedition expansion?

Hey, man... like I tried to listen to your words. I really did. I thought to myself; this man's words ring true. I know he's a man of loyalty, despite having been a bounty hunter and mercenary. Alas, it was not meant to be. I was trying to be friends with Praepastor Amelia. I tried my damnedest to try and make her happy, but she would have none of it. I was like "Whoah, please, no! I can leave! Just let me leave, and I won't have to do bad things to you!" My pleas fell on death ears. Some guys people came in and they did not seem to have any friendly intentions. What ensued is too horrible to mention. In their honor (I really wanted to become friends with them, you talked me into it!), I am now wearing one of their noble robes. I shall never forget them.

An unfortunate tragedy, fallen upon such virtuous people. No matter, the blood, sweat and tears of the friendships that could've been fester within those robes. They, and the firm tentacle of Tchort, will be with you always.

I can't get past these piece of shit bugs on dominating. I refuse to play hard.

I actually got them all through the sheer virtue of being incredibly stubborn.

New day comes and with it, a new build. I wanted to try the arse-shattering power of full-crit AR, but that's gonna be too easy. Now I think - what about full crit silenced SMG build?

I am deebly gonfused by the lack of Full-Auto and inclusion of Critical Power.
Critical Power doesn't work unless you use the Steel Cat or Syg MPX, neither of which can be silenced.
I'd shuffle the base attributes around and find a place for Full-Auto, to have both high damage bursts from a Steel Cat and decent damage bursts from a silenced 5mm SMG.

This game is actually way better on the hardest difficulty. My build will probably get starched at some point, but I'm also confident I might just pull it off. Everything feels way more deadly and actually plays more like survival horror a la original Resident Evil games.

 

[Major_Blackhart]

Agreed. After I finish this tin can haste build, I'm gonna try it on Dominating.

Looks good. Sadly, I already started and at GSC compound now, too late to restart. Don't know why I marked CP, huh, it's really useless here with 100% straight crit bonus.

Descending after cleaning the Institute is fun. Hope you have stealth.

Before you sign on with one of the companies in Core City.

Why before? Do they go away otherwise?

Spoiler

By the time you meet an oligarch and are dispatched to the research facility, Six will have left Oculus. You can only meet him pre-institute if you make it to Oculus before then.

Spoiler

What can you do with Six when he is at the Oculus? All he does is threaten me.

Spoiler

He'll be a bit more talkative the next time.

Meh he never says anything. I had started the core city quests but not gotten to found acid hunters yet. Whatever moving on.

Honestly I think one silent build that might be worth exploring is pistol or smg+crossbow since crossbows are always silent, then you have a good reason to get more crit related feats like Critical Power or Sharpshooter, might try it someday.

Hey guys, what's up? Been a lurker on these foruns for a while and decided to make an account to join the thread, so this is my first post! I've over 500 hours in the game so i think i can help some people here. Just finished another CHEM run, and i'm sharing my build for those who enjoy some war crimes against some certain natives...

This one is a crit oriented build, and it's made for use of the XAL pistol and 100% acid resistance, hence the need for the escape artist feat. Just finished the game with it in the hard difficulty and gonna take it to DOMINATING. I think that's the most fun build i've ever made, even more than the Pistolero one, maybe i'll show that one later.

I mean if you bring a knife to a gun fight you need something to compensate!

Danny Trejo can kill through Intimidation.

James Toney build.
10 CON.
6 STR.
At least 10 AGI if we are talking prime MW Toney.
It could be low INT, but HIGH WIL.

No armor.
Not even regular clothes, only boxers.
Boxing gloves.
Strictly unarmed.
No sneaking or anything of that sort.

Anyway, anyone wants to know about the proto-azuridae? Let's take a gander at Dark Sun - Shattered Lands:

SCREAMER BEETLE

Appearance: Screamer beetles are very deceptive in their beauty. The multi-colored chitinous shells are prized by art collectors and alchemists.
Combat: Screamer beetles hunt in small packs and generate psionic blasts from their abdomen that can harm, or even kill, targets. In melee, they attack with their two mandibles, doing 1d8 points of damage.
Ecology: The screamer beetles form small packs to overcome their victims. The main concern of the pack is food, thus they have been known to attack caravans.

Colorful psionic bugs, eh? They surely gained some more abilities on their way to Underrail.

"Some"
