Vraes - Avoidance focused- Phalanx Shield, Natural Mastery & Burst of Speed
Equipment - Pole Arms & Shields -
>Very much going to try and stick to the idea of the character with his artwork and maximize his potential to be on the frontlines. Experimented with just being a damage sponge and that wasn't going to work out in the end so I guess a mix of both was the way to go. Stone skin just didn't cut it, and the RNG with Phalanx was helpful in the ranged attack defense. At first I didn't realize the true potential of this and the initial danger of ranged attacks, it has taught me a nasty lesson and got down right brutal.
Kjartan - Conjuring Focus - Choking Ash & Pureflame Shield's been the main focus yet been unsure what to level with him.
> Choking Ash was ignored on my first run and now I revel in the glory that is this spell, a lot of the game felt like easy mode with him just throwing this spell at his foes. Pureflame has been ignored mostly, but still used at its lvl 1 for the slight boost to defense. Been hardpressed however to level with him unlike before with the pure damage focus and occassional buff.
Fyona - 2H Hammers & Offtank - Zealous Strikes & Consecrated Defense with the occasional Blessed Aura
> Been wanting to try Fyona to aid on the frontlines alongside Mr. Outlander, so far she has been unable to hit anything that's not been Ashed by the mage and been taking *way* more damage than I'd like her to. But nonetheless with the occasional heal, she still stands firm and by golly she hits hard when it lands.
Tamilin - Bow for finishing, Knives to harass - Blacknight, Torrent of Steel & Ranged Onslaught (Planned)
>It's a tough choice, along side with Kjartan, of what I want to make her into. I feel her bow presence is rather lackluster at times, barely doing damage when her knives are doing more than adequate. I dpn't see a need to level her quintessential RPG rogue skills but I feel like she's only truly useful at the start of an encounter or finishing off targets that Vraes or Fyona fail to kill.
That's my party in a nutshell, I'm dead set on Vraes' set up and sort of keen on keeping Fyona with the whole 2H hammer approach as its on her artwork after all. Tamilin performs well, but feel like she falls short and I feel like Kjartan is just a one trick pony with Ash and the occasional buff. Looking for a small bit of advice on what may work primarily on this set up.
