Re: ... so how 'bout that hand cannon?

Using a steam generator for handcannon is basically like unironically using an acid wave rune or something My most successful bulwark used an acid wave rune. I happened to find one that scales on strength, so... against magical enemies, I used it for the status cure. Against physical enemies, I use...

Re: Is there any reason to use shields over heroic runes?

Don't forget that there are classes that get special benefits from shields, like sun paladin or arch mage. Also, damage done to a shield basically vanishes when the shield breaks. Damage done while you're under heroism still needs to be healed or you die. So like many decisions in the game, one migh...

Yet another idea about fixing saving throws.

I think one thing most players can agree on is that saves are questionable at best; some would even say worthless. This has been true since even before I discovered the game and it doesn't really seem to have been fixed. There are two real problems with saves, from what I gather in talking to more e...

Re: Midnight (v1.12.1)

This addon causes some new characters to not spawn with their third infusion in the inventory. I'm not sure what race/class combinations are affected, but I started a Cornac sun paladin and did not have a healing infusion.

Allow me to hijack this thread to ask, what do you mean by that? I don't generally buy skills from shops.

I'm now curious if you can get normal game completion achievements this way.

Re: How do people feel about the Radiance tree?

I had heard of Judgement nuking whole rooms when it was in testing. It doesn't appear to have been nerfed since. The damage on it looks low, but its a radius 1 burst on every visible enemy. So in a filled corridor its 3 times the base damage. 9 times in a monster pit. Would be hilarious in the post...

Re: How do people feel about the Radiance tree?

I agree on both sides of the argument: The radiance tree has some amazing passives that make dipping a few points worthwhile, but it's not worth maxing out because the abilities scale horribly. My two cents: Radiance: 5/5 for light range, near immunity to blindness, never need a lite again. Hope you...

Re: How do people feel about the Radiance tree?

I'd reverse that. Radiance at level 10 is pretty useful (eliminates light source problems immediately) while Crusader's better skills aren't available until higher level anyway.

Re: How do people feel about the Radiance tree?

Would it be unbalancing to have radiance available as an unlocked category for sun paladins?

How do people feel about the Radiance tree?

Personally, I like it. I like having a 'free' light source and immunity to blindness, which essentially frees up a lite slot and a ring slot. And Searing Light is nice to keep at 1/5 IMO, because it's basically 'free' hits to break through effects such as bone shields. However, I notice a lot of peo...

Re: Starting Equipment

Why would you need to adjust encumbrance? Unless you're a brand new newbie, you have a transmog chest. Just TM whichever set of gear you don't need and keep the one you do. I doubt the extra .4 gold you get will unbalance the game or anything. :P

Re: Starting Equipment

I accidentally posted it in the wrong forum and it has since been moved to the right forum, so there's no need for personal attacks, man. As for more encumbrance and more gold, not really. The starting equipment is worth less than half a gold. It hardly means anything if you sell it. It would just b...

Re: How Paradox works?

I was noticing that Celerity was not working for me, below 300 paradox. I couldn't switch my weapons or run quickly with it under 300. That's the only one I saw during my brief time as a Time Warden.

Re: HELP! Eternal fight against Poliwen the bone giant...

I've always found bone golems to be particularly frustrating, if they spawn as a rare. You have a creature that already has immense HP, a VERY powerful damage shield, can heal, and has a stun effect that lasts a long time. Then you give it a class with even more damage mitigation (such as Block or a...
