FIXED VERSION: ruclips.net/video/ZFZPWAH5ZkU/видео.html
Seriously, you can actually understand me in this one.
its acceptable mate, save the time and fix it for new ones :)
I couldn't hear you properly whilst using a decent pair of normal headphones, you trailed off and seemed unclear. I was also on my mobile though so maybe RUclips lowered the audio quality.
When I tried again at home with my proper headset though it was acceptable.
Yeah. Your words all kind of run together. Maybe add more enunciation.
give aggro to your friends too make them ply more tactically. brilliant sadly no one wants to play with me anymore.
DovahRex yea sounds like a Midwesterner or something
Quick tip, you can get adrenaline for Fane with corpse eater early on by transform to an elf with his mask on the boat
Wanted point this out as well but you beat me to it, good job!
how do you do it?
at the start you've Fane's Mask, so you steal the "chunk of flesh", then transform into an elf, then eat it
Your videos are so great man, thank you. I'm a total noob to this game (but have been playing RPG's since the late 80's) so i needed the help. I love your sense of humor as well, it really adds a lot to these videos. I subbed, and will be back for more :).
Liked your style, both funny and informative.
Cannot wait for more details.
Nowhere else to look, this is the best channel.
Something you might have wanted to have mentioned is the Medusa polymorph spell. Since a rogue is a melee fighter, typically they are in the thick of the fight. While they rarely do any magic damage, they will often be surrounded by people who have no magic armor if the mage is doing their job, not to mention chloroform is amazing.
The Medusa spell is one of the best spells in the game by a large margin, with minimum of 1 enemy locked down for 3 turns for 2 AP, and a huge AOE petrification for another 2 once per use.
Rogues shouldn't be fighting melee fighters, they should be using movement abilities to evade the fighters and go right for the opponents who have low physical armor like mages. The 2 ap investment is a lot to be dealing damage that scales off on int and can't crit and I think it'd be better on a true frontliner.
THE best guides for divinity 2 by fking far, all of them, i disagree with the necro here tho, mostly in lone wolf with just 1 point you get lvl 2 necro plus just 1 item or so and you get insane support skills, dmg boost, plus instant heals since your dmg with a rogue is absurdly broken, just 3 necro automatically heals my character in lvl 15 with each hit, i dont usually get hit, and i didnt take necro for heals so its just a nice bonus, death wish, bone cage, edge, all amazing, if you grab comeback kid too you are a killing machine that cant die.
my 5 cents. youre intelligent and worth listening to and you know your shit
with this game. unfortunately the amount of balls the audio sucks
made me quit the video half way cuz i got tired of going back and rewatching 39 times trying to
understand shit i couldnt hear.
Best ranger build is "necromancer + warfare + ranged + summonor". Also skills that u need most r retreating or improvising ones. Skills like shackles of pain and vanishing r most essential in this game. Wits from level 14 to 20 is compulsory skill to have but this does not apply to dagger rogue build mostly as backstabs r critical. Surviving in Start game is harder than the endgame so better go watch playthrough of "kaen" or "divinity 2 guide of tacnitician difficulty" by major slack as he explained all battles in awesome and ez way.
Nice explanation of the racials and why to use them, why not . Hope you will do similar ones for other "classes" or even hybrids. Good job! Got a subscriber.
great video man ! super helpful and funny, i look forward to more
Still waiting on the ps4 release! But your videos are edited well and full of great content to fill in the time waiting for it keep it up mate 👍
Glass cannon and executioner are really nice too!
Hey man, thanks for the vid. Haven't started yet so some good advice is well appreciated!
Good build, but I think I still like my full glass cannon Fane better =p
You can't really get it rolling before Driftwood but after that things just die.
Max out dual wield, warfare and finesse, get gear with scoundrel/finesse/warfare/initiative/wits, get 5 glowing idol of rebirth, get glass cannon, comeback kid and either pawn or executioner (depending on preference).
Survival, CC and armor? Fuck that, don't need it.
Here is what you do:
Place yourself in sneak in a good spot before a battle, once combat starts open up with a backlash right into something and continue to wreck shit on your next turn.
You won't be able to die, and whatever cc they place on you can be cleared by another character before the turn comes.
As a bonus, if you have the highest initiative and the last to enter combat, you will get 2 turns back to back for free. Sprinkle inn some flesh sacrifice in elf form, adrenaline, time warp or even haste + clear mind from another character before you and whatever else you might have and let's just say not a lot lives through that =)
3/4 of the way thru the vid I was like 2 POINTS IN POLYMORPH!!
Then you were like Polymorph.
Touche, good Sir.
Funny and informative video. I liked it a lot:)
I went for rouge summoner, idk why but it works.
Bro, I just subscribed due to your insane ablibs.
Awesome guide man.
I opted to make an undead elf rogue and its fun but i was disappointed that Fane did not say anything new about me being an undead. I feel like that was kinda lazy on their part when they could have just wrote a couple of lines about him asking you about being like him or something.
So new but so good! keep up the good work!
that idubbz leafy comment legit made me lol
Hey man. Good guide. Just starting out and like the approach of a none sneak build. Let's see how this works out.
2:33 was just pure gold omg
Just wanted to point out that crit chance *is* very good for rogue, despite what you're suggesting. You want your special attacks to always crit, otherwise they're lackluster. Crit Chance caps at 99%, and is definitely achievable if you're going Lone Wolf for instance.
Necromancer is amazing, not for the spells, but for the healing. In fact necro is probably a must-have skill to dump points into, despite almost solely using Scoundrel spells. I would recommend focusing on: Dual Wielding, Scoundrel, Warfare, Necro, poly (1 point for Chameleon) and Aero (2 points for teleport and uncanny evasion; teleport placement is incredibly important for rogues later on).
Also btw Protip: if you do a Fane run as suggested, you can still get Adrenaline for free in the ship. Simply transform into an Elf, eat the murdered dude's leg, and free adrenaline for Fane!
I have a question what do you think of the crafted skill books like "Venom Coating" or "Sabotage" are they worth taking or not ?
Thank you
I dont find anything wrong with any of these videos ...Informative and Hilarious...i dont even watch the Russian guy anymore....Plus i suspect he doesnt know what hes doing lol
Serious question, I am new and want to make a rogue but I want to customize everything about him so can I make a undead human and just make everything the same as fane and it will be the same thing?
yeah but you wont have Thanes source skill.
wait wait... dont pile your points to finesse early, rogue skills scale of finesse and you dont need the memory.. so, am I or am I not putting points into finesse?
5:45 whats this backwards talk?
"dump all your points into finesse early"
I agree, this point is confusing. So if undead elf all skills in memory?
No, pump points into Finesse early. Messfunkt had it right. You want to put your points into Finesse early because you don't need the memory slots just yet, and wits might give initiative, but the extra crit is wasted if you're positioning right for backstabs.
Hmm I didn't know fine was a rogue. I made Seville rogue and fane was my wizard mc.
@Quackstack - where are you man? We like need you a lot now that they have reworked the entire game!!! And we miss your puns..... come back pls!
I've said this from when i first started playing. Fane is literally broken as a rogue.
Nice video dude, made me subscribe in an instant and i apologize for being pedantic, but is this build viable on tactician?
+Roderik all my footage is from tactician ;]
Thx
I played as a rogue as the Beast for my first play through, was kinda disappointed how late game he struggled to do damage on par with the rest of the team. My deathknight red prince was out performing him hard in terms of physical damage, even with guaranteed crits and cut tendons.
Not sure how I was going wrong in my build, I put roughly 10 into dual wield, 5 into polymorph (which went into finese) and 5 in scoundrel...
You could try what I did then, but you kinda need Fane for that.
I just went 10/10 in dual wield and warfare and maxed finesse. Other than bosses it easily takes out a target in 1 turn while still being able to CC with warfare skills. Polymorph is neat and all, but the raw damage boost is hard to pass up. With the right gear you still get a good amount of scoundrel for crit and whatever else you need to use other skills.
Cheers
these are fucking great man.......Subscribed
I always thought that Sebille's Source magic was shite.
Are there benefits of going dual wield instead of one handed?
you hit with a second weapon for 50% more damage.
thx for the vid, the music is pretty loud tho, quite hard to understand you...
Stat distribution?
Probably a great guide. but I can hardly hear a word you say, because your music is to high and your speek, just drowns. You also spoke very quickly and unclearly . . Fix that and will b great. :)
Mike Meyer you just have shitty speakers/headphones
I have $300 studio monitors and he still sounds like crap
I understood him perfectly fine and actually thought he spoke slowly
Please lower your music. I can't hear what you are saying.
Nice
Why Fane over Sebille for rogue?
+sonicman Couple of reasons
1. Fane gets infinite lockpicks due to his 'skeleton key' passive
2. Play dead skill feels more useful for melee classes which rogues are
3. I like running Sebille as a summoner/ranger because I feel flesh sacrifice synergizes better with that moveset
But I do believe the elf class is just way more OP than the rest so both can work
2 words Time Warp
fane isnt a rouge......
WTF?? A rogue isn't "also known as Fane" like it says in your title. What kind of scam are you trying to pull?
Music is way too loud relatively to your voice.
Hmm
nice meme
WRONG! this builůd is no good and you do not understand the sneaking bonus at all.... shame
lol you're pretty funny
5:37 for actual build content... no skip for bad jokes, sadly
Nah I like the jokes.... But time stamps would be a good addition.
Anyone else just this video all over the place and confusing?
Stahl Definitely would agree here. Second video I've watched from this guy and it's pretty clear he's more adept with the game than he is with making videos (nothing especially wrong with that since its a guide video). My constructive criticism would be to try and organise the videos better by splitting them up into clear cut segments. There were a few areas in this and the other video that were just straight up confusing due to either poor editing or sound mixing, so that'd be something to work on. Apart from that he's definitely informative
Guy Guy
I totally agree.
Literally cannot understand a word.
dude, how many tongues do you have in your mouth? half the time i can't understand what you're saying. like, for real!
Holy f you can steal from traders???????
Mikaz I did so in the first game, so I'm glad it returns in this one!!
you can steal from anyone but only one time per character
For god's sake, just get to the point.
