The Big Lebowski. Or Blade Runner. Not sure which is most watched of those two; maybe the latter since I just saw it again a week or two ago. "Well that's just... your opinion, man." Hey! We don't have accents... it's those people to the south that have accents, eh.

My last gal had the impetus mod on Somersault and it didn't seem to help very much... the radius seems to be very small, such that when I hopped into the midst of three or four guys it would only damage one or two. I usually use AS in a combo (AS/Pelting Strikes) and use it to either take out annoying archers or "hurry up" to the next mob. Next time I mod AS, it'll definitely be for straight damage. I tend to play my Seras with DW and Celestial magic - I've loved Radiant Pillar since my first day playing S1 - so I've never lacked too much for area damage. My usual technique is drop a pillar and start pelting; when I have the regens balanced properly I can alternate RP/PS on big mobs/champs/bosses. Mind you, I've never had a character above 60 in Sacred 2, so I can't tell you if that'll work in gold or above...

Very nice guide, quite similar to the build I was thinking of trying for my next seraphim. One question though: why do you want Armour Lore with a Divine Protection build? Isn't it sort of redundant to get armour bonuses when you've got a 100% mitigation spell? I'm not asking to be contrary, btw... I'm still learning the subtler points of the skills, and I'm probably missing something about Armour Lore.

I bought my Collector's Editon from 365 Games and paid with Paypal. They shipped it on Dec 29 and I had it in hand, in Vancouver, Canada, on Jan 05. Pretty good for almost exactly halfway around the world.

I've actually noticed number 2 before - especially with ranged attackers. Sometimes when I'm running to kill them they hit my character with a rock/dagger/arrow and seraphim stops running. Frustrating as all heck. Still doesn't explain the wonky timer though. Maybe I should make my inaugural post on the official forums and ask why...

I'm consitently having trouble with combos for my Seraphim, actually. My main combo is (with one point of combat discipline) Radiant Pillar, Pelting Strikes and Soul Hammer. seraphim's currently in the high teens level wise. When fighting little guys that die during the pelting strikes, no problem. But in a large (8-10 guys) mob or a mob of skeletons or kobolds with a champion, two strange things happen: first, when it comes time to execute the soul hammer, the timer for the combo regeneration resets (I can see the timer icon getting close to filled, then it goes back to empty and starts to fill again as soon as the soul hammer animation and sound effect starts); second, when I finally get to do the combo again the pelting strikes often doesn't go off (that is, she fires a Pillar and does a Soul Hammer, then looks around stupidly at monsters that are still whacking her). I never had any trouble with a radiant pillar/pelting strikes combo before boosting combat discipline. Is CD broken? Are combos borked? Am I doing something wrong by having two CAs from the same aspect back-to-back in my combo? I thought maybe it was serverside lag or something, but this morning I built the same seraphim single player and the exact same problems happen...

Okay, thanks for the advice guys. I went ahead and ordered the UK/International version from 365games.co.uk. Its taken weeks for stuff to get to me from the UK in the past, so hopefully I'll see you guys online some time in the new year.

Hi folks. Well, the title sums it up. I can get either version on eBay, or just get the NA version down the street (I'm in Canada). I'm a little unsure of which version I should get... I've read some things about the NA version not connecting to the servers properly? I had the UK (International?) version of S1/Underworld which I bought because the "gore" wasn't turned down as it was for the NA version; is there a similar thing with Sacred 2? Is the "UK" version of Sacred 2 the same as an "international" version? Is the collector's edition worth the extra money? I don't have a super gaming rig so I doubt I'd be using the heavy duty textures but I love getting extra stuff, especially better/bigger manuals. Thanks!
