I am excited to see what crazy uniques we may stumble on that could potentially be build-defining.....would assume they kept 95% of the rare drops a secret to find on our own.

Definitely going Titan first...shit sounds so fun, just hope melee isnt super slow the whole way through.

So I’d like to play this on my Xbox while at home, and on my ROG Ally while at work, is there a way to do this without having to have 2 separate accounts?
Yes, there's cross-play and cross-progression. Should just have to do the usual account linking stuff to get access to everything on standalone client/Steam and Xbox. MS doesn't even block PC MTX from transferring to Xbox, unlike the faggots at Sony. No idea how that's supposed to work when it comes to stash stuff, but at least it only affects PS5.

Edit: I don't know if all of that will be working on day 1 of EA though.

looking at playing infernalist-minion, more just for the fire dog over turning into demon, anyway he says about the hellhound, "if it has a reasonable amount of hp is could be really good, if it has a lot of hp then could use it for DD, but no one wants to play dd, that thing is super unethical i hope it sucks"

is he just talking about unethical from a character perspective of blowing up one of your own minions, or is it bad game play? don't know anything about this guy, he was linked a page back, now youtube thinks i need to see all his vids. couple other people have talked about blowing up minions in guides but not said much about it.

I feel like Im going to end up going chronomancer just to try and make the shitty seeming ascendancy work...

Second wind support makes it viable I think.
Requires Level 1
Support Requirements: +5 dex

Supports skills with cooldowns, giving them extra uses of that cooldown. Cannot support triggered skills.

Supported Skills have 50% less Cooldown Recovery Rate
Supported Skills have twice as many Cooldown Uses

Place into a Skill's Support Gem socket in the Skills menu to apply its effects to that Skill. You cannot have multiple copies of the same Support Gem socketed at the same time.

this alone is a big deal. makes that 33% chance to ignore consuming CD, a 33+33% chance.
And thats on something with only 1 CD. something like frostwall is 3 charges. traps/mines?

Frost Wall
Spell
Duration, Cold, AoE
Level: 6
Cost: 20 Mana
Cooldown time: 3.00 sec (3 uses)

of course hourglass support.
Hourglass
Support

Requires Level 1
Support Requirements: +5 int

Supports any damaging skill that you use yourself, causing it to deal significantly more damage but gain a long cooldown.

Supported Skills deal 35% more Damage
Supported Skills have +8 seconds to Cooldown

so this would give me 6 charges of frost wall, each with 33%chance to not consume the CD.

or maybe frost bomb.


increase limit? I imagine can only have 1 frost bomb or frost wall active normally. this let you place 2?
Requires Level 1
Support Requirements: +5 dex

Supports skills which can have a limited number of effects active at once, increasing that limit at the cost of their duration.

Supported Skills have +1 to Limit
Supported Skills have 50% less Skill Effect Duration

Place into a Skill's Support Gem socket in the Skills menu to apply its effects to that Skill. You cannot have multiple copies of the same Support Gem socketed at the same time.

Have they released the skill trees and shit? Can we look at builds?
Fextra is building pretty much everything out of his early access to the early access "Press Copy" - which I dont give a fuck personally, but most everything is on there. Zero in on the class, and itll list all the skill combo's beneath it. If you're looking for the tree, you can just google that one.

Glad you're playing. Was thinking you was going to skip it for a minute.

If you're using the Pillars of Eternity 2 wiki I think your build is going to be somewhat wonky.

Its a terrible fucking site. Obviously. But he has the most up to date information "currently" because he ignored the request from GGG to not use his press access to build his fucking website and update it. Thats what all this fucking stupid ass drama is about. Again, I dont care about the drama. All I care about is when "I" can play.

Yea I’m a bit annoyed, because blood mage just looks so sick and the kind of build I like to play (as long as it can be done minion free , as I hate minions management). But I’m torn because I usually play off meta / old or unpopular builds for economy reasons and also to feel like im cool / elite. I guess technically there’s no meta right now but I feel like 50% of the player base is going blood mage

Warbringer looks the most fun to me, I like pretty much every node. I'll probably start that going into warcrys and maybe totems. Then a CDR chronomancer, a poison/life flask pathfinder and a sorcery ward/cull + dec strike witchhunter. Some sort of dex stacking monk or deadeye also looks fun.

I am not trying to be too autistic here but my general gameplan is to maximize stun with the Titan ascendancy.

Just going to go Arc-Archmage since Merc turned out to be nothing like I hoped it would.

Yea I think Merc is bait. Neat concept but I think it’s too novel to get right the first time. Most people are gonna find it awkward as fuck

So, as I look at this, there are no real mass minion classes yet? The necromancer is not out yet.

Minion cucks remind me of the weirdos who like feet. Disgusting people.
