I've been playing a mix of Dark souls and EOUII. stuck on 3rd stratum boss, and stuck in blighttown in dark souls. Worst place in the game. A Valley of Defilement tribute is the worst, at least its easier than it IMO. Poison resistance helps a lot. The Pyromancer or Thief armor sets have poison res...

The blobs at least look snake-like. I didn't expect the dog or giant robot forms though ._.

Shadowrun Hong Kong, great stuff.

Also Pillars of Eternity, grabbed the expansion. The changes to attributes makes trying to optimize characters a bit of a headache now. At least you can now respec characters.

Wildlings probably could've been better if there were classes that actually had synergy with them. This is the only EO game with no classes that use binds or ailments to their advantage like Nightseekers or Dark Hunters.

Try attacking him when he changes to his offensive stance, he initially starts in his defensive one, which takes reduced damage from virtually everything. You should spend most of the defensive form turns priming your party's nuclear strikes.

To be fair though, Briareus is just another name for Hekatonkheires in the actual myth anyway. It is annoying trying to remember how to spell it though.

Briareus was the biggest joke of a post-game boss in EO2. I actually wonder if he actually poses a threat now.

- Are elemental Zodiacs a thing? I always read one should go for elemental forges instead. But seeing Anemone taking 150 damage from my Arbalist's Front Mortar with Ice Forges makes me think otherwise... Elemental Forges only work with normal attacks, they do nothing for skills except chasers, sinc...

Frankly I've just been juggling around members for each specific situation, something I haven't done since (Ironically) the original version of EO2. While ailments and binds undergo a massive slump since the two bosses there are jerks that resist everything. They're damn strong in 4th strata up to t...

Elemental Guards only block one attack per character now. So for rapid hitting elemental attacks, the Circles are actually better. For straight AoE damage though, the Guards are better. At level 10 the Circles reduce damage to 40%. At 20 I think its something like reducing it to about 25%. There's n...

GRIMOIRE FARMING, YAAAAAAAAY!!!! time to max out on all those mastered grims! Grim farming is terrible. I wouldn't really try it until post-game. You really don't need the top tier grims for Harpuia, Juggernaut and Overlord. Clearance is extremely helpful for Juggernaut though, but there's a chest ...

Yggdrasil Core is the final boss of Ginnuwhateveritscalled! Didn't see that coming! Definitely not as hard as his counterparts in the earlier games though. The Overlord is much harder than him in fact. Well, i'm still in the 2nd stratum. Slowly making my way up, about level 24 on floor 9. I do hope...

You should use one of those random avatar PHP scripts.

A different expression for every post!
