For me, the most important CC in Act 1 actually came from Woljif (Grease) and Nenio (Create Pit), especially on higher difficulties. You can also purchase scrolls of Web in Defender's Heart. To me, the entire attack on Defender's Heart becomes exponentially easier once Grease/Web are applied in the entrances. Create Pit isn't bad either but Grease/Web allows you the added advantage of keeping disabled enemy units above ground to be picked off by range. It's also great for some harder fights like Topaz Solutions, Tirabade Residence, Gwerm's Mansion, etc. where a greased doorway can have you shooting fish in a barrel in no time.

Easiest time I had in act 1 on Unfair is going all-out melee + charge party, taking care to open the battles charging to catch enemies flat-footed. I would suggest going solo once you reach the tavern until close to level 6, you can do so just by doing Woljif's quest, the market central area with Hurlun and the Desnans, and the tower with the right positioning and well-timed pillar collapsing. As for the Grey Garrison, Ember is essential to slumber Minahgo and end that fight quickly because otherwise it's baaad. The hardest fight is the gal that summons a bunch of swarms, and the easiest way to win this is to rush her with a melee party.

Great tips good sir. I, for one, didn't know about the books and just sold them. Good advice on multiclassing Lann. I'd like to offer 2 tips myself. 1) Don't forget to use hold, H by default. There's been many times, before I discovered hold, when I've sent Woljif in to disarm a trap, under stealth, when as soon as a mob is spotted, the entire party comes running and sets off the trap. Hold stops them running into the trap. 2) Don't be afraid to play with manual formations. I find the auto formation system makes some odd decisions (such as putting Seelah third in the line), thus using manual formations allows you place who you like where you like, such as tanks up front, melee DPS, next row to the side, for flanking, and ranged and casters way back in the rear. If done well (and using feats like Precise Shot) the tanks and DPS can keep the mobs away from the ranged and casters, whilst they do their thing without penalty.

Use the chokeholds and natural barriers to your advantage. Unlike Kingmaker where even 'small' passages could fit four trolls abroad, you can often times plop Seelah in the way of a door and have Daeron spam heals on her while everyone else peppers the enemies with arrows. Or you could set up between a few crates with walls on either side and use that scroll of create pit directly between them, drop entangle in that gateway, etc. Battlefield manipulation is great in Righteous.

Yeah I keep hearing great things about it.

Camellia is a very interesting character to build for sure. I have experimented with some ideas to use her as effective frontline: 1. Go lvl 2 for Iceplant & get Icy Protector, but start putting levels into Fighter-Mutation Warrior from lvl 3 onwards. This way you get both Weapon Focus and Fencing Grace/Slashing Grace at lvl 3 (with the choice of almost any martial weapon). Dodge at lvl 4. Mutagen & Outflank at lvl 5. She gets some power spikes at each level to stay on top both in damage and tanking. RP-wise this build can also be justified: she *is* a monster at heart, and took inspiration from the mongrels, particularly those in the Shield Maze. 2. Still, Iceplant & Icy Protector, but from lvl 3 start putting levels into Barbarian-Instinctual Warrior. IW is a very tanky class with high HP and high AC, a great alternative to Monk for non-lawful tank characters. Starting from IW lvl 2 she gets AC from Wis if not wearing armor or shield, as well as Uncanny Dodge. You will need to burn some Shield scrolls on her and have Mage Armor up as much as possible, but will be well rewarded with great performance. RP justification: she's a bloodthirsty sadistic psycho that has kept herself (mostly) concealed and in-check, in other words, a disciplined savage with a methodical approach to carnage. Both these builds hold up very well as you level up: the MW build gets progressively stronger Mutagens and access to all the Fighter abilities, and the IW build gets Dodge and Natural Armor that scales with level.

Grease is really good at crowd control early on, too - but placing it is tricky, you have to watch out that you don't end up crowd controlling your own team more than the enemy. For the tavern battle, I swear by Entangle - covers a huge area, really slows down the bum-rush. I mentioned it in one of the playthrough videos. I put Entangle on the northern gate to slow down the enemies and get like half of them stuck, then my ranged characters can pick those off while my other characters then focus on the ones coming in over the walls and, ultimately, face off against that minotaur. If Seelah has her mount I will sometimes have the mount positioned up by that northern gate to hold the line (Seelah *not* actually mounted) to soak up attacks until inevitably 'F' for pony but it does its job in the meantime. (This seems to have once been a much, much tougher fight but now it's not as hard, but it's still a great way of getting through it, especially on higher difficulty levels. I play on a customized Core. But I still think it was once tougher, even at that level. In any case a fight like this can benefit then from not only having entangle up there, but layering on a grease or even two right at that gate to get enemies falling all over themselves. They have to save for each separate effect).

Does ascended element negative energy allow necromancy spells to work on undead or enemies with immunities to death effects or spells?

@napalm777

2 жыл бұрын

It allows negative energy to bypass all immunity's and resistances, this means that undead normally healed by a DAMAGING negative effect, are not healed, and hurt normally. This does not stop you from healing them accidently or on purpose with spells designed specifically to heal using negative energy, and it wont make your healing negative spells damage the living. To bypass undead immunity to mind altering effects is a different ability though ( like bard songs or illusion spells) can be done with undead heritage sorcerers. A example of this is, say you have liches ability to convert all energy damage into negative energy, aka fireball is now negative damage. With ascendant element this will make your negative energy fireball harm undead, but this also includes your OWN undead minions. But if you diddnt have ascendant element, your undead would be unharmed and the enemys would be hurt by the same spell. So depending on your build, ascendant element can actually be a detriment in some situations! This goes for say, ascendant fire too, Protection from fire and resist fire will not protect your teammates from your own fireballs anymore. Instant death magic is different (unless mind altering death effects with undead heritage), and immunity to negative levels is different.

@@fonBraunen Seems a waste to me having 3 tanks for act 1. The argument random crits makes no sense to me, if that is the argument and it stands that the argument for any main character being a fail if it isn't a tank is random crits but obviously that is false. Also you better male Lann a tank as well because I mean random crits could just happen. Having two tanks in the party for act 1 is more than enough. Seelah can't be anything else in act 1 but a front line tank and if your main character is a tank then its likely the case for the main character as well. Camellia however can be a tank for act 1 but Camellia can also NOT be a tank but something else. Ergo if you have two tanks you will likely get a far better return using Camellia to crowd control, buff, debuff and heal than tanking. Again you add in facts i don't dispute but are pointless to the discussion. Mid to late game consideration have no validity to Act 1. Nor does one amulet of nature +4 replaces iceplant + ring. It is irrelevant because where are you going to get a +4 amulet of nature in act 1? What you say about her is true but this is a specific video about helping people get through act 1. If camellia in act 6 becomes a ice cream sundae that auto kills any single creature once per combat that isn't relevant to the discussion unless doing x build in act 1 would preclude her from her ice cream sundae of death transformation. In other words Camellia's value later in the game isn't important to act 1. Again this is all predicated on the fact that your main character is a tank and we are talking about tips and tricks for act 1.

It's very powerful but it's also a very slow process which is why I didn't really mention it here.

You failed to mention grease being the best spell in the game. I even got minhago to slip once.

Yeah honestly I don't use grease but a lot of people commented that they love grease and pit spells in Act 1.

The only problem with this video is it doesn't cover the REAL reason people can't get through Act 1: Chronic Restartitis. How many times have I reached the Defender's Heart and started adventuring, only to say to myself, "You know what would be MORE fun?" Back to CharGen we go.

I completely agree with you. I think I am on number five or six so far. I think one of the reasons why I keep on restarting is because the length of the game. I honestly don't think I'm going to be completing the game multiple times. So I guess subconsciously I am trying to maximize the fun with one playthrough.

@@SlanderedGaming yea you will get some more later, but i found it almost impossible to do Mr. Goatman in act 4 he have insane ac and magic resistance and saves, there is basically no way to scratch him except those bolts. Well lich spellsc could do it but not everyone is lich i guess.

I will say on core, tanking with camillia is a problem for me. I never got ice plant honestly, as long term o don't like it much compared to bark skin. But still with everything up she dies kind of fast. Then again seelah has gotted hit for 58 in the prologue so the moght ne part of it. That and I like melee fighters more, andshe just isn't out doing my main. Hmm although I can have her riding that triceratops. Crazy noble lady riding a dino......brb I gotta see something.......

@@SlanderedGaming you are indeed correct. Just tested it. Guess iceplant is considered natural armor and bark skin is natural are enhancement which are 2 different buds. Guess I'll have to add that in on the next round of hexes and try her again. Thanks.

Evil Eye is king in Act 1 and like the whole game

Agreed I love that hex.

ah man, I finished that mission a day or two ago. Like you said, the game mentions nothing about a time limit. I feel pretty robbed now.

I like your idea for Lann, but I tweaked it a lil bit and went with Hunter’s Tandem Executioner. Not sure if it’s the optimal choice but I gave him the Monitor Lizard as his companion. Felt like it fit well thematically. Anyway love your channel! Great content!
