Lol. True, but restartitis has never been an issue for me. I do abandon runs sometimes. On a few occasions I've done it with cool characters that were thriving. Aurora is a recent example there. When that happens it isn't because I felt like starting a new character, though. It's because I've...

It's a cool portrait, for sure. She's been fun to play so far, too. She's stealthy and has an affinity for Necromancy, in addition to Alteration. She sneaks up on her enemies under invisibility and then kills them with Color Spray and Chill Touch. That's a low level move only, ofc, but I'm...

Quick Note for Those Who Might Be Interested: Our brief discussion of Transmuters got me thinking about my old Transmuter, Alastria, from the original Ascension Solo Challenge. I kept thinking about it off and on and I decided that I'd like to play a Transmuter again. Since Alastria is dear to...

Thanks for sharing, Borco! Looks like the work of that bloke over in Adventurer's Lounge thread. This one: Don't ask me how he does this stuff because IDK.

Alena, Halfling Priest of Lathander, Canon Party Run: The Planar Sphere, Part 4: Tolgerias- Little Fluffy Clouds People say you learn something new every day. I must be slow because I learn something new every six to eight weeks. That's on average. I have my good days. Today was one of them...

Alena, Halfling Priest of Lathander, Canon Party Run: The Planar Sphere, Part 3: Lavok Against Lavok we used the effective but unsatisfying summon army plus stationary AoE strategy. To make this semi-sporting I made a point of keeping some, if not all, of our party members within Lavok's sight...

Compared to me you're an expert, lol. I've purchased PoE2 but I haven't installed it yet. Plus I trust your ability to figure things out. I'm sure I'd benefit from following your run, even if you haven't sussed everything yet. If anyone else is interested, let us know, either here or in DM...

Alena, Halfling Priest of Lathander, Canon Party Run: The Planar Sphere, Part 2: Taibela and Necre It felt good to clear hurdle one. It felt better to clear hurdle two. It felt better to clear hurdle two because this time the battle went according to plan, a rarity in a run where characterized...

There's no rush. Enuhal is down to do this whenever and I am too. Would you like to take a moment to sell Enuhal on Pathfinder? I would but all I know about it is that you like it. That's enough for me, but Enuhal might benefit from a bit of exposition.

Interesting start, Wise. I like this one! EDIT: Btw, I just noticed you final post on Strongheart. Condolences. It's very cool that you're embracing the unknown in a no reload context, though!

Noted! The change in mechanics curbed my enthusiasm for the PoE full saga play last time. I could get over that, but there's still the matter of my inexperience with PoE2 Here's an idea. We could set up a thread. You and I could start in PoE. Enuhal, who wants to play PoE2, could start there...

Alena, Halfling Priest of Lathander, Canon Party Run: The Planar Sphere, Part 1: The Hungry, Hungry Halflings I'm going to regret this. Maybe? I think? I'm not sure. We'll see I guess. I've always feared the lock in quests. There's something comforting about knowing you can run back to the...

Ascension only has a few components. I'd recommend all the major ones and most of the minor ones. Here's the Ascension portion of my Weidu log. The final battle can be difficult, especially on Insane. It responds well to the difficulty slider, though, so you should be able to find an experience...

Over at Beamdog @Enuhal , @Serg_BlackStrider and I started a conversation about trying some no reload runs in a different game. We did this once, years ago, with Pillars of Eternity. We're considering doing it again. This seems like a more fitting place for the conversation than Beamdog, since...

You'll be fighting VMel, I take it? Have you considered Ascension?

Don't worry about him. If he needs to override your CRE files, he'll override your CRE files. He's the best at overriding. You just worry about kicking Mel's tuckus. Agreed?

WeIl, if you're playing in a v35 install this veteran would appreciate some choice intel on what's to come. We've established a back channel for that purpose. This is your contact. He can move between installs with ease, so anything you report to him will make it back to Alena. He'll be waiting...

Makes sense! Sometime you just need to play the game to the end to see what you can see. Feel free to share your observations here 🙂

Alena, Halfling Priest of Lathander, Canon Party Run: Mencar & Co With Aerie now at peace, we turned our attention to our party's greatest challenge: poverty. Seriously, we're broke. I'm not entirely sure how or why. Scratch that, I am entirely sure. We've been hording weapons with unusual...

Lol. When you said he was "incredibly tough this install" I was all: I figured you'd been fighting him all along. But speaking of learning things, I had never noticed the Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy reference there and I love both BG and Douglas Adams. Thanks for that!
