Will Cavalorn getting mad at me ever be fixed?

Will Cavalorn getting mad at me ever be fixed?

I know it’s his hut, but it’s actually hard to catch him outside, and I just want to trade lol.

Don’t remember him getting mad in the original. In Gothic 2, it was definitely possible to walk into NPC’s huts to talk to them.

Finished D2R Classic on HC for the first time - highly recommend!

I don’t know how I managed to put 5.5k hours into D2R alone, and never tried out the Classic mode.

It really makes you plan your build differently, when there are no runes, no charms and extremely limited stash space.

I ended up finding pretty much the best uniques/sets - Bonesnap, GToe, 3 Sigon pieces, 30 Nagel, 30 MF Chancies.

The best thing about this playthrough is that I had no idea that Barb is OP in classic. His WW apparently hits on every frame and doesn’t use IAS, so you can basically find the slowest highest dmg weapon and one-shot everything on p8 in NM.

Hell was a bit tougher as expected, but I still managed to clear Act 1 on p5, Act2-3 on p3, and Act 4 on p1. All this with the freaking Bonesnap (which luckily I found early enough on Normal). If only you could upgrade it in Classic!

Anyway, whoever wants to try a somewhat “fresh” and different D2 experience, highly recommend Classic mode!

Do I have any recourse as a contractor?

I’m 3 months into this new job as a contractor at a tech company, and facing a bully in the role of a scrum master.

The thing is he’s mean to everybody, but occasionally likes picking on me. For a while I was just laughing it off, but every now and then he gets under my skin. All attempts to establish any friendly or professional communication with him have failed.

I’m not the only one to notice that he’s being a dick, but most people prefer to ignore him or play along it seems.

Manager seems to be taking a back seat, and never intervenes. He’s a rather quiet guy.

I wonder if it’s worth keeping a log and having a talk with my manager about it at some point. I feel that as a contractor I’m easily replaceable and they hire new people every other week. I also don’t have access to their corporate resources like HR, etc.

Luthier recommendations for a bass guitar setup

I happened to buy my bass in Montreal, so it’s quite a long ride for a setup.

Was wondering if anyone could recommend a luthier/guitar tech who could do a setup for my bass in Ottawa.

Btw, not sure if there’s a sub dedicated to Ottawa musicians, I don’t know if it’s a good place to post this.

Memontum??

The voice actor actually says “memontum”, I wonder if it was voiced by AI, because how would a real human not question this obvious typo and say it as it’s written?

Have you encountered any other similar typos/errors in dialogues? I think I once saw a Templar at the swamp camp entrance saying something off-script, while the subtitles say he used to be a “Malin” (whatever it means lol).

2 more things I miss from the original

  • ability to close doors (that’s how I would loot the chests in some houses - but it also looks weird how the door I opened in Chapter 1 still remains open in Chapter 4 lol);
  • blood level (ok, this might be from Gothic II, but it’s really unrealistic how you‘re just walking around while almost beaten to death, and not leaving any blood trail).

Offline Chaos - High and mid rune back-to-back

Got a Vex also 3 runs later. Definitely put those shards to good use.

Is bow/crossbow-only a viable build in the remake?

Thinking which build to pick for my second playthrough, and was wondering if I could go all in on dexterity/bow/crossbow skills and ignore melee completely, or does it get weaker later in the game?

Just finished the remake - I missed these two mechanics from the original

  • the ability to draw the weapon, during a dialogue;
  • using a bow to highlight NPC names.

There should be an option to disable Heralds

Similar to “enable TZ” option. Seriously, unless they change their drops, I could care less about them spawning, and if anything, they only slow me down and make TZ farming a pain in the ass.

Take Stony Tomb for example. The area is so small, that you’re practically guaranteed to get a herald spawn in level 2 area. For me it usually spawns right around Creeping Feature. If I don’t kill CF first, now I need to deal with the stupid herald. Since I’m playing offline, I‘m used to farming on p8, so if a herald spawns on P8, he will be like an Uber boss, so I’m forced to switch back to p1, and then back to p8 or just leave the area and forfeit any potential loot.

Really frustrating experience. Rant over.

Where to dump remaining points as a melee build in Chapter 6?

On my first playthrough of Gothic Remake. Just started Chapter 6 and got about 40 remaining skill points.

I got max Strength, max Two-Handed, max Crossbow (complete waste IMO), all the auxiliary skills.

Is there anything I can spend them on before heading back to Sleeper Temple?

What do you call this kind of graphical glitch and is there a fix for it?

Been playing this game on XBox since release, and keep getting glitches like this. It usually happens when you’re passing an object overhead or when you’re in a tight space, then the screen goes crazy like this.

Kinda started getting used to it, but if there is a fix for it, my eyes would’ve thanked you. I’m not even sure if there is a name for it, so didn’t know how to google it properl.

5.5k hours later I finally find my last grailer…

Been playing D2R since the release (and obviously LoD back in the day), but never ever found this item in SP. Dropped by none other than big D 😂

My current grail is still at 96% though with 12 uniques left.

Overall, I found 2 Tyraels, 5 DWebs, 4 Mang Song’s, and this is the first time a Death’s Fathom ever dropped. RNG is crazy in this game sometimes.
