ok, all those mages with homing missiles that stagger me made me stop playing.
Who thought its a good idea to have this kind of combat system and then made 50% of all enemies in later areas spam homing missiles.

That is the funny part. You get to learn to dodge and block instead of mindlessly buttonmashing. I love those and the trolls. Troll must be the best enemys in game.

Honestly no. The game is so easy that you can do just fine with any spec you want. I did main questline only in 11 hours using only magic (died 6 times total). I'm going to try again using only greatsword and see if it is still so easy.

Try using a hybrid, game is pretty challenging in hard mode with a hybrid build. I think it's actually balanced for them, so pure builds are way too strong.

its almost impossible to dodge 3 mages shooting windwhirls and fire at you, especially when 1 is always off camera...
all those mages actually MAKE me resort to mindlessly buttonmash them down as fast as possible.

I like drinking a few potions and saying "Fuck it, regen will save me".

It's really not. Unless it's multiple Thresh using their rapid fire spells or a ton of diving monsters (Windemere is a good example), you should be able to dodge it fairly easily once you know the timing.

Plus Might has a skill to avoid stuns, Sorcery stuns everything back and Finesse is really good for dodging around and picking things off one by one. Wolves are the only thing that's really, really stupid because they're always annoying, even when they're not dangerous anymore.

The more I play, the more I really like the game. I like a lot of parts behind the story, but they could be presented a lot better, especially early on. The side quests are somewhat hit or miss, but there are some really good side quest story lines and a lot of mysteries.

I wish the drop system worked better. I don't think blacksmithing should be as powerful as it is, and more emphasis should be placed on uniques. By the time you get most of them, they'll just be completely obsolete. The loot is also heavily skewed towards Faeblades, which makes somewhat sense given the story, but is still disappointing for daggers. :|

Still cruising along with pure finesse daggers and the difficulty feels good. Sometimes I do awesome things at quickly kill entire camps, other times I have to work for it with bow and dodging/lunging. Sorcery and might definitely make things too easy, though. Even finesse could use some tweaking, so that I'm not instakilling certain minibosses. Also, a lot of abilities just don't scale very well, especially in Finesse. Envenomed edges, smoke bomb, lunge, etc.

You play a sorcerer with a sword or a warrior using daggers. The synergy between the trees really isn't that good though, I agree. Maybe with some of the later abilities.

I just picked this up last night, having a lot of fun with it- playing as finesse/sorcery for now :D

Zzzz..... I'm a level 7 mage fighting the boss Gnarth mang...

I've never been 1hit before in any game... like ever. Hard mode too strong. I herpderped and used my fate mode in the fight before, smart smart.

Gotten her to 1 hit left like six times, I think it might be about time to ragequit because turning down the difficulty isn't an option. On a side note, it was slightly saddening when the game told me I sucked to much for hard difficulty. "Maybe you should try Normal mode!"

It feels weird to go from never dying to dying like 20 times straight. I like it, this difficulty thing. Go Kingdoms.

Maybe Mage is not as strong, but the game is quite easy, even on hard O_o (As finesse)

I died the most times to traps and failed dispelling of chests, lol.

I'm really enjoying this game, after skipping through the beginning areas it's gotten more and more fun. There's a program called "WidescreenFix" that makes the FoV whatever you want, and sets your character much further from the camera. It's absolutely wonderful. (Just remember to hit "\" after enabling it.)

I really like the inviting graphics and the goodies everywhere, but just wish there was more reward to crafting (xp) but I like how deep the quests and dialog are. Lots and lots of fun.
Beauty is not the goal of competitive sports, but high-level sports are a prime venue for the expression of human beauty. The relation is roughly that of courage to war.

I think it is just a tough matchup for mage. You get basically no health as a mage, so are pretty much a glass cannon. Unfortunately, Trolls also have ridiculously high magic resist. My Shock bolt that hits everything else for 250 hits Gnarth for 30 damage, 60 if I get a critical.

So basically you get to kite Gnarth around for about a half hour while being unable to make a single mistake because if you miss that one roll you dead. I think I'm also a touch underlevel for the encounter, havn't really done any side quests yet.

Skipped pretty much every other quest but main and faction ones, since they were mostly pointless and boring fetch/kill quests. Felt like a standard "Oops we ran out of budget" about 3/4ths into the game. The end content was pretty damn bad, though it could've been just me getting fed up with the game. The whole idea of + Show Spoiler +
Alyn Shir (Spelling? The grey elf chick whose idea of clothes is a bunch of belts strapped on her) threathening me at the end of the game made me chuckle. Seriously woman? I slay whole armies while you take 5 minutes to kill a Bogart. Good luck taking me out!

I tried to look at the trees to find some synergy reason for multiclassing and honestly I didn't find any. Maybe after getting like the 5th card in sorcery was a point where I was like..okay, I don't really get much anything from putting more points into sorcery, so now might be a time to grab something else.

Then I looked at what the other trees offered within 20ish points and I was like...this is totally pointless, because my spells do so much damage. The only thing that could have been remotely useful was that warrior talent that makes you interrupt immune, but seeing as pretty much everything in the game dies to meteor-lightning storm combo at hard, I just decided fk that and went for the archmage destiny instead, although it mean spending points to get flashy weapon combos and dmg boosts for my chakrams which were there for eye candy and stats, not using. Out of sheer boredom I started using only chakrams at the end and found out I was just as able to kill everything with them as I was with spells. Balance yo, this game lacks it.

Have to say I really enjoyed like 2 first big zones, but after that the repetition became so obvious it started severely hurting the experience.

Oh a little tip, never enter a dungeon, unless you have a quest for it. Due to the dungeon layout design and the fact that there will be quest locked doors or containers right at the end of the dungeon which has no shortcut back out, you will have to do a lot of running back and forth if you explore dungeons before given quests to them. Plus with bad luck you might even break some side quests by doing the dungeon before hand.

I finally managed to get this game on PC. Played 4 hours in, pretty great so far. The combat is definetly the best part of the game. The voice acting is good but the dialog and characters as well as the story are so normal that they don't really stand out.
