Do you think it would help if there was a “customize” option for honour mode? Like there is for the “custom” version of the game? So that you could make your team the weakest possible and the enemies the strongest possible.
I don't know, possibly. A part of me feels like honour mode should be the hardest possible scenario, but that's just my initial layman thought.
Well i actually got ass kicked from the inquisitor. After 40 hours
and before that almost died to Grym.
Pls don't say to me that it will go down after act1.
I'm not necessarily saying it gets easier as it continues. For me, Lae'zel and Karlach beat Grym down with mauls. I liked the new ability, but the combat went smoothly for me. I always felt in control of the combat.
I breezed through the inquisitor after coming back out of the astral prism. I'm trying to recall the details. I believe Lae'zel stunned him with the soul breaker greatsword, and from there, everything went downhill for the inquisitor. His new ability manifested twice, but never had an opportunity to do anything.
I'm playing a straight sorcerer with the urchin background. My main party is Lae'zel and Shadowheart, fighter and cleric, respectively. Before Act II, I was using Karlach, then I switched over to Minthara when I had the opportunity. Karlach was a tiger barbarian, and Minthara just the standard paladin.
I'm not using sneak attacks. I'm not using the wet condition. I'm making a point to always trigger dialogue first. The hardest fight I've had thus far was with the masked servants of the hag. And that was completely my fault. I put masks on all of my characters along with the spell protection from good/evil. I intended to slip by, but then I figured, oh heck, I'll just attack this one masked servant. And here's where I screwed up. I had Shadowheart cast "hunter's mark" from the bow she had. Which was a concentration spell, which negated protection from good/evil, causing Shadowheart to be taken over by the hag. Unfortunately, she had a fireball scroll and used it on the rest of the party, which caused more concentration loss. It was a hot mess for a moment, but I managed to recover.
Other than that, I can't think of anything that's caused me serious concern. I'm struggling outfitting everyone with the new prices, of course, but other than that, the combats are running on the easy side overall for me.
I can outline my tactics for just about every combat thus far. In each scenario, I've always felt like I was in control of the conflict, from root to leaf.
