@Aedanstarfang - Just a heads up, since you have so many accounts/pawns, I gifted some things to both Darik and Gideon. Took them to fight the Ur-Dragon. They did great.

@Shepen - The forum overseers, switched it from 20 posts per page, to 25. So, now all threads have less pages. *shrug*

[Shepenwepet]

lol, oops. Misread your post. Gotcha.

Alas no Moonshimmer Pelts tonight.  Those Giant Saurian Sages are on vacation.  The last time I saw them in the Rotwood Depository, Carcharoth (in pawn form) dealt with them.  I think he scared them off!

 

I have never heard of Tiger Beat (I know Tiger Feet (the Mud song)).  Whatever it is, sounds great - looking forward to it!

 

Must go to bed

It's a teen mag, mayhaps not available in the UK?

 

Thanks to the two folks who gave me the level 3 armor! They were... a blasphemer's cloak and hellfire helm! ... 

 

Sigh

I'll send one.

[Carcharoth42]

There's no need. I still have tons of cursed items in storage and I already sent you a lvl 2 weapon with the sword and shield.

[coldwetn0se]

..okay been trying to gift a cursed weapon level 2 to Gideon in hopes of getting a "Cursed light" to go with his holy theme, it's not working out very well. Does anyone by chance have a spare Ascalon lying around ('twould be easier than trying for a Cursed Light as much as I adore it)? I'll gladly trade the cursed weapon for it (Gideon/Gabriel "CGCaeco" currently has the unpurified Cursed Wpn lv2) 

Go take a nap! That is WHAT I gifted Gideon. Along with a Lambent Shield.

Okay, new serious fun, that finally has worked for me.

I have used Launchboard, in every pawn's skill list, when they are set to Fighter. But I never seemed to get it to work properly. Mostly, I just didn't know what to look for. But tonight (after ALL these long hours of playing this game), at long last, I figured it out.

Castor is set for Fighter right now, and I hired him and Zi to run around the Everfall for a bit. I love fighting the Archydra. So we head off to the Room of Hesitation, and that boy went to TOWN! He was Launching all of us on to the Hydra...it was awesome!

BUT, one of the best things is, it has some great photo ops. I was so surprised at getting it to work, that I missed most of the opportunities, but now that I know what to look for, I a really looking forward to some awesome snaps.

[Shepenwepet]

^I haven't explored the photo possibilities with launchboard, but I have tossed many a pawn into the sky with it.

 

A couple pics from the Pilgrim's Gauntlet...

 

You know you raised your pawn right when you enter a room with this...

Spoiler

 

And end up dying from this...

Spoiler

...shortly after that shot, he fired ten arrows directly into her face. Somewhere from across the room, Chase yelled, "Attacking it may help!"

 

Got more, but I have to go to bed. Good night, all!

[CuriousArtemis]

Possessed Shinon is f***ing terrifying. He once murdered Dai three times in a row, after which I ran out of wakestones and threw him off a cliff. Sheeeesh!

 

Well the other night Castor must've gotten into something radioactive because his sneezes were, well...

Spoiler

 

I mean it blinded poor Zi.

Spoiler

 

Speaking of freak deaths, both Seel and Castor took a flying leap off the cliff, leaving Rohan and Zi to deal with a couple eliminators, some giant undead, and a sh!t-ton of wraiths. The two of them spent about 20 minutes one one damn wraith, I swear. God bless their little Heaven's Keys. 

 

Anyway, Zi was so proud of himself afterward that he danced a little jig

Truly grand screenies, ladies!

@Shepen - Try Launchboard on a pawn instead, and let them toss you. THAT seems to be where the opportunities lay. The perspective is pretty awesome, and combat cutscenes seem to happen quite often, so things get zoomed in a bit. So far, the best one for this, has been the Hydra. (tried the Ur and a Drake; the Ur was in a "swatting" mood tonight, so big fail most of the time. The Drake was just dead too fast. No time to set up any shots (and only got one launchboard in. )

Going back to hack at the online Ur again, then I am off to bed. If I wasn't so damn tired, I would stay up for GP (which I suspect won't be too much longer), but....*yawn/smack* Sleepy.

@Aedan - Regarding the Macabre Sculpture:

(from the wiki)
"Climb up the water spout of the healing spring, and onto the ledge above"

Double jump was a help, if I remember correctly. Been a while.

Nice pics.

BTW, no need to gift Chase or Castor (if you have or plan to rent them) with Liftstones. I have hundreds of them already, so no worries. Crafting items, Periapts (Conqueror or Demon), are usually welcomed gifts. But, you can also just send a mushroom too.

Also, I would suggest taking a nap with Darik's Arisen as well. I gifted him new items too.

No, it's not available here, but it does sound intriguing though!

I am finding I always get stuff I already have when I purify BBI gear. It can be frustrating, because you can't gift it. I hope that changes when they do the 2nd game (whenever that will be).

I purchased DDDA of the Playstation Store any tips or words of wisdom for me?

 

• Experiment with the various classes. All of them have benefits and drawbacks and you might find yourself enjoying a specialization you never considered before. You'll also unlock augments that can be of use with other specializations.
• Don't get frustrated if you can't handle the enemies in certain areas. Level up some more and come back with better weapons and armor. Or pick up a higher level pawn to help you out. A few people here are also on PS3 and I'm sure they would like to help.
• Wolves are weak to fire.
• Remember to bring plenty of oil for your lantern. The night is dark and full of terrors.
• Pick up every "kill X number of creature" quest you can. You'll complete them all eventually.
• Give your arisen and pawn unique personalities. It helps you care about them even if they never display most of these traits in the game.
• Take pictures with the screenshot option at the bottom of the pause screen. Keep us updated on your journey. Being involved in the community is fun and keeps you interested in the game even after you've seen and done everything several times over.

Welcome, Stormheart! Come in, sit down, have some festival pie.

+100000000. My first playthrough, my pawn was a pawn, yammering on and on about castle walls or the ruins of such. I played for maybe 40 hours and put it on the shelf afterward.

 

I'm pushing 650 hours now. Easily the most time I've put into a game in recent memory.

 

• Wolves are weak to fire.

 

 

Lies.

 

And now last night's pic spam.

 

Spoiler

Sad Chase misses the Ur-Dragon.

 

It figures, my lantern blew out just before this.

 

Kalethai (who I hid here to make this easier to see) picked up some oil from a pot... and Shinon walked by and swiped it

 

Dem eyes, shot #78

 

I hired Dimitri last night, I still haven't sent him home.

 

Typical Zihark while fighting the Ur.

 

Pre-fight is pretty much the only time I can get a shot of Zi. He's always dead.

@Stormheart83 - Howdy, howdy! Even though I mostly play on the Xbox, I do have DD:DA for the PS3. I have a level 150+ (something like that) pawn named Chase (female Chase, not to be confused with male Chase on the Xbox....yeah. I'm a dork. ).
PSN: coldwetn0se
 
Will gladly rent your pawn and gift you armor/weapons/crafting material.
 
@Carcharoth - Excellent list. Too bad we can't add that to the OP, for the occasional newcomer. *nod*
 
@Shepen - Damn....Chase (that is Male Chase..ahem ) looks really good in that Holy Furor shot. I actually like that it is a little darker. Might have to steal *swipe!*
LOL Jumpin' Jeebus, Shin just can NOT let a pot of oil go by, can he. Maybe we need to set up an intervention. Oil addiction is a serious matter in Gransys. Mhmm.
 

 
As for yesterdays outings.....

Spoiler

 
When I started out the day, I didn't have Shinon in the party. He was, however, hanging around Gran Soren. I was somewhat fascinated by his "poses" Too bad the pics are so dark though.




Zihark: "Why do they do this to us, Shin?"
Castor: "Yeah....I think my nipples have frostbite."
*in unison* Chase and Shinon: "Because they can."




Chase: "Augghhh! I have an itch I can't scratch...it's driving me MAD!"
Zihark: "Coming to help!"


Briana was being camera shy again...seriously, I had the worst time trying to snap her. lol!


Until......*choir sings in background*


Chase has taken to fighting the Ur, quite nicely.


And, of course, it would be a pic-spam with out the boys "striking a pose". Vogue.


(damn! I went there with that pathetic joke. flog me, please.)
