Re: On Weapon and Class balance

for throwers, barbarian should do more damage. The only way a rogue will do more damage is if each of your throwing attacks do more than 100 points of damage.

As for light weapons, they're really good with invisibility and the 3x backstab damage.

Re: The "Walking Dead" Party

I don't think Disaster's comment about spamming Invisibility was meant to be an "arbitrary" declaration of "cheese" against anyone who uses the spell. If you read it within the context of the discussion it was more the result of trying to reason with themell's silly logic. In on...

Re: The "Walking Dead" Party

Manovering around your target to get one backstab in is hard enough to do in LoG 2 and thus time consuming. Getting two(!) backstabs in in a row is pretty much impossible on a difficulty other than Easy. I've only played Grimrock 2 on hard and I've found that I nearly always want to position monste...

Re: The "Walking Dead" Party

As for throwing vs light weapons, I base it off of this thread: viewtopic.php?f=18&t=8027 So you are theorycrafting. Enjoy your lizards, they are cool. Nothing you've said makes me want to try it (quite the opposite in fact). I'm not sure how he managed to get 25 shurikens when there's only 20 ...

Re: The "Walking Dead" Party

It's interesting to read a player talk negative about a Mino Throwing Barb in contrast to the experience of almost everyone else. He stated he gave up early on throwing so he's hardly qualified in that matter. Actually the Mino part is overkill for a throwing barb; he's always a powerhouse For that...

Re: The "Walking Dead" Party

A single stat boost is comparatively meaningless on overall performance. Get 5-10 of them together and things start to make a difference. I might challenge your third character, Themell. Specifically, the decision to go with Light weapons over throwing. We know that dual wield suffers a 40% penalty...

Re: The "Walking Dead" Party

The builds I'm seeing in this thread are weak. Best build is FOUR LIZARDMAN . Barbarians give +14 str by lvl 14. With an alchemist, playing for 15 hours = an extra 5 crystal flowers from walking, so you will need to play for about 45 hours in order to get the extra stat gain that a barbarian NORMALL...
