Excuse me for having opinions and wanting to understanding a game I paid money for..

Friggin jack-asses

Trust me, this forum is filled with people who absolutely love this game.  You might have an opinion, but accusing the game of being filled with "gabbing" and nonsense will not generate a civil response here.  It just won't happen.

ok lets use ur pics as an example, under enemy choose a condition eg.below 50% hp then choose a skill or action to use in said condittion. not that hard man

[Nosuchluck]

Let's just pull up a really basic example.



You select enemy from the list then below 50 percent health. On the next page you then select Ability - Shield Bash. That basically means when the enemy is on 50 percent health your character will perform a shield bash. You've even had it selected in the screenshots.



How can it be so confusing?

Man, my 12 year old has the hang of setting up his groups AI.

If you think that those pages are a "waste of programming space" then why are you even paying attention to them? Ignore them. No one is forcing you to use that option.

alright, this screen is for scripting (getting the AI to do something without your direct control) the health presets are as such: Health < X% means when the enemy target of the AI char is less than X it will force the AI to use a certain ability that you set on the right hand side. For Health >=X% means when the health is greater than or equal to X% it will do scripted action.

this Target: Condition screen merely is the empty preset, from the dropdown you can select various condidtions for various targets, see your first picture for the explanation Target as Enemy and Condition as Health
________________________________________________________________________________________

Again another completely useless screen.


basically summarising, these screens become MUCH more useful as the game progresses and fights get more dificult to manage, i didnt need to use it at first but have started using it a lot more now, it really does help the gameplay, a little less pausing makes it a lot more fluid

i hope that explanation helps, and stops all the flaming (which is as bad as trolling)

[lawsie100]

i find the post very strange indeed. on the one hand you say you find the tactics screen confusing, on the other, in your pics you state 'here has been so far absolutely no use for this screen I have found yet. So again this is just another completely useless screen, Why would I ever care about the condition of a target, who cares. It doesn't do anything for game play.'



but yet even just looking at that screen i think its fair to say that a new born would be able to make sense of it. I have not even played the game yet and just by looking at those pics i know how to use that. In summary, i think you are wanting people to play up to your apparant dumbness in a weird troll like fashion.

So, lets say the character who's tactics you are setting up,

The only options available in the tactics menu are defensive and healing.

Where are all the attack options in the tactic menu....You speak of spells and stuff...I don't see any of that in there. Why?

Hmm, that's an odd problem. You have two columns in the tactics menu right? one you can select to the left, and one to the right. The options you have when you click on the right column should have things like attack, defend, use skills, use talents, use strongest healing poultice, use least strongest healing poultice, use strongest lyrium potion, use least lyrium potion and other such things.

If you don't have any of these other options in that column, then I am not sure what it wrong..

I'll check the topic later if it hasn't become locked and see what other way i can help you out. I'm going to go play and will look at the tactics menu. (no promises I will remember every option) and see what else I can try to explain, or explain better.

[Rubadubdub88]

Ub3r explained it quite well. Take advantage of changing your tactics for the situation. Unless you play on casual. Then you can fly through the game without touching your tactics.

[mwfisher]

Thanks for trying to help out Ub3r_ explained a bit better than I can!

you know, it would be awesome if someone actually did a complete walkthrough on the tactics screen, a big How To, seeing as the manual is vastly lacking, i mean its a big 'feature' in the game, but there is a lot of Jargon people may have trouble with

That would be a good idea - maybe a couple of people could make a social group ('DAO Tutorials'/'DAO In Depth'/etc) and have a bunch of people collaborate on it.

guys you have fallen pretty hard for a troll, this one has trolled several forums including the BGII one, where he complained that the use of DnD ruleset made it too complex for him(or anyone) to play

If y'all can't discuss a topic without bickering, then we'll just close the topic, all right?
