After leveling up just right to beat the turtles, crocs, and frogs, now I'm stuck on the Houndmaster, who seems utterly impossible unless I can squeeze just enough XP out of... something, to hit level 4. Apparently, from what I've read, I should just go back and exploit some quests and murder a bunch of NPC's. How nice. Now I fully understand why Obsidian had no XP for kills in Pillars of Eternity.

At least put some "re-spec" potions or something in Fort Joy so we can reset and re-level our party better without restarting the whole game (which I've done several times now)... Or just, you know, make the fights ever so slightly less impossible.

Well, that's my 2 cents. I'm off to change my terrible rogue into a summoner and try again...


I honestly don't understand how you can genuinely have such a fit and be this sincere about it when you are being utterly rediculous.

Don't play tactitian if you don't want to minmax.
Also don't ruin our fun complaining on here to make the game easier for everyone else who do like the challenge - like what the hell is wrong with you?!

I do just fine so far. My toons sometimes die, so I have to run and try again. A lot of encounters I got wiped and had to retry 10 times before I learned to use that oil barrel propperly and beat them with my last man standing. That's exactly the beauty of it. If you don't struggle, you won't learn - that's what tactician should be about.

Go find a mod that fixes your trouble instead of ruining my fun. That would be a smart and healthy thing to do.
