Good to know.
I'm also wondering if its worth maxing out skills like Witchcraft etc or should you stop putting points into them at a certain level?
if you take the default companions, just make Jahad the 'go-to' crafter, he has an inherent +1/+1 for blacksmith/crafting, and then you'll probably find bracers or rings or something that adds +1 to them and keep them in his backpack, so you only need to update his crafting to 3/3 and you're good to go.

My battlemage is 5/5/3 man-at-arms/witchcraft/pyro. I really like the witchcraft talents. Death punch is awesomely OP, especially when buffed, and the debuffs come in super handy at the start of fights before he can reach the enemies for melee. If I had to choose witchcraft on a true caster over the other schools, I'd probably think twice, but in this build it works great.

There are also talents that require level 5 on those skills. For example, having 5 on Air opens a talent you can get that makes you immune to stuns. Or 5 on Marksman reduces the cost of using ranged weapons by 1, etc.Best reason to take skills upto 5 is that you get unlimited spells from that school. Its nice not to have to pick which spells you want on hand.
I finished this game a couple of weeks ago, but once the new companions are patched in, I'm totally going to play it all over again. Loved it.
The description of "cavern of portals" can be so many places in this game.
I think the game is around 60-100 hours depending on how much of a completionist you are first time through going by the steam tracker.
Well I'm level 14 and this is the first place I would describe as the "cavern of portals" but let me be more precise without giving too many spoilers....
The cave where you need to go into portals in a certain order to enable you to reach the final room which is a library where the 2nd of the 4 hidden chests are.
There is a lever by the portal in that room and I have no idea what it does.
pretty far in now level 14. got to admit I have a little bit of "ummm what am I supposed to do or where I am I supposed to go now?" syndrome.
One place i didn't get far in is the mines. I ran into Death Knight and I dont have a way to beat him yet. Not sure if I have something in my huge pile of an inventory or didn't find something else yet...

there's actually a book in the mines that tell you how to make invisibility potions (not that you need to make them, I already had like 4 in my inventory, you only really need like 2 I think). Also invisibility scrolls, or probably even smokescreen works, or if you have a character with high sneak, you might be able to do fine without them.I am currently there too. You can use the Invicibility spell to wander around the mines to progress.
Assume you are talking about the room which you pick 1 of 3 spells. There is no lever there that I remember.
That's too bad, but it seems to be a common issue with RPG's since they want to make them completable by those who skipped all the side quests and extra XP throughout the game. Maybe someone will make a difficulty mod.Just finished the game, 100 hours Loved it in the beginning, but sadly balance issues made the combat extremely too easy after about halfway through. When in the beginning combat was an exciting experience, later on it was just a time waster. Still, solid game, I'm giving it a 8/10.
There is nothing wrong with making early releases available and wiping on the final release if there's any reason to.
Customers just need to understand how it works and decide if they want to play that early release in that situation.
It's better that they're available to those who want that, than not available because some customers have a problem with not buying it until release who don't want that.
I know that recovering a pyramid when you're too far is how it's supposed to work (my guess is that 'too far' means when you move to another map?). Not sure if it's the same if you put both pyramids on the ground and leave the map.I'm at level 14 now and it does seem my 2 handed melee character and 3 mages are over overpowered,when I first started the game it was harder fighting mobs, seems to get easier later in the game.
I lost my teleport pyramids when I placed one in areas I wanted to explore, even the one in first town had disappeared ,suddenly they are both back in my companions inventory,very weird so wonder if that is a bug?
Anyway still enjoying the game,probably get it finished by the time Risen 3 arrives.
I'll probably replay the game again later when then add the new companions in etc...
