  1. Welcome to the forum, Onion! I'm hoping we see a resurgence of forum members with the recent BC release on Xbox... There's years worth of great content and community here too! 😊
  2. I can't believe I just googled Sacred 2 forum + my user name and found... Darkmatters.org!! Man. It's been like over a decade since I first joined this forum, I'm shocked to see it's still here and there are still member!! Amazing! Also. Thanks to Microsoft for releasing Scared 2 as a backwards compatible title. Haven't snap purchased a game that fast in a while! 😊😊 How's everyone doing?! Anyone else starting a new character at level 1? I can't wait to get into this game again...
  3. Thanks for the feedback folks! I took AM because I'm determined to keep Tesya relevant throughout my playthrough haha. Guess I'll see how effective that is as I go... Con at 18 it is!
  4. Started over, high elf dual element build... Made it to the Orc cave, level 16... Died 2 times there so far, totally worth it though. Love that cave... Question for the gurus: at what point do you typically take Constitution? I've been putting all of my levels into Vitality so far, sitting at just over 600 HP. I've got Pyro and Delphic lore, Ancient Magic, Armor, and Bargaining so far... Trying to decide between EP or Con for my level 18 skill slot. Maybe I should make this a new topic... Thoughts?
  5. So! I recently decided to step back into the wonderful world of Ancaria... Get my hack and slash on... Loaded up my most recent character on my 360, Seraphim seems to be the class of choice for me... Game is loading. Xbox 360 freezes. Huh. Okay, fine... Guess I'll go back to Skyrim for a bit then; I hear there's a Dragon priest on an island that needs slaying... Come back to Ancaria today. Oh what's that? I have no characters? Um. That can't be right. Exit the game, check my harddrive... Every. Single. Character. Deleted. Are you kidding me?! That's hundreds of hours of builds and grinding and testing and dozens upon dozens of awesome items just.... Gone. So incredibly bummed!! Not even sure if I should bother restarting... What does a person do:) Back up their saves to another drive every now and then? Devastated. :-(
  6. Thanks for the links gogo! Really useful info there. Scott: Yeah, the lack of EP is a serious bummer... Takes a lot of the fun out of it for me! Boo!
  7. Just a quick question for all the high level inquisitor players out there: Has anyone tried leveling Eruptive Desecration with the Greed skill and pumped it to a decent % to try and consistently generate more item drops? I don't have a high level character to test this (and I'm on console)...? Curious... Seems like it could be fun! :-) Also, does anyone know if the Soul Reaver buff would work with Desecration, in a combo? I think the Desecration should go off second, so you still get the benefit of the souls + the chance for item drops as well?
  8. Not going to read through all of the posts here to see if it was already mentioned... But when I do Orc Cave runs, I set my loot preferences to 3 star items only (in game options). This severely cuts down on inventory clutter while ensuring I don't miss anything important... Saves a ton of time micromanaging the inventory.
  9. Wouldn't having a 0 regen time be pointless though, seeming as your execution speed would still be at x amount (the time it takes for the CA casting animation to complete)...? Therefore, there would be no benefit to having a regen time of a number less than the time it takes for the animation to take place...?
  10. I guess I was looking at the wrong stuff in the wiki? Heh. Sorry about that. Thanks for clarifying the info, I appreciate it. So in the case of a multi-aspect caster build, it seems like mastering concentration would be a very good thing since it applies the regen decrease to all aspects, yes?
  11. These are questions that just aren't clearly answered in the wiki... 1. Can someone please explain how Stamina works...? Like right now, I'm looking at my high elf with a stamina of 37 and it says Average Combat Art Regen Time 138.7%. And when I put more points into it the number goes up... I really don't get this attribute! 2. . I don't actually have any items of this type yet, but is Chance to Halve Regenration Time triggered via attacking with a weapon or does it just happen automatically when you use a combat art? 3. What exactly does "Spell Intensity" mean and what quantitative effect does this have on combat arts? 4. Seeming as there's no table for either in the wiki (that I've found anyway) can someone tell me what the regen bonuses are at mastery for the High Elf's Focus skills and as well for the Concentration skill? Thanks! I'm planning a new build and am looking to try some new ideas. :-)
  12. I'm really confused about what is and isn't classified as a legendary on consoles... 3 star items? 4 star items only...?
  13. So... If I'm reading that right, Bargaining becomes increasingly worse as you level up...?! Isn't that counter intuitive to how most skills should work? You would need to invest hundreds of points in order for it to stay useful!
