Re: Things the devs didn't think through

I dont think the game was designed to "PUT ALL 50 POINTS IN A SKILL! NOW!" then rinse and repeat for another skill... I think they designed it for you to even out your skillpoints into skills that build up your character, which is what i did: Okay this guy here is the tank, so i'll want h...

Re: DLC

I would buy it for sure.

A new dungeon, say one or two new classes (with new skills), more items and monsters, one or two new wall textures and a couple of spells.

Assassination and unarmed combat

Does the level 12 Assassination perk allows you to attack from the back row with unarmed attacks? I ask because the description states that you can attack with melee weapons , but does not specify if you can do it while unarmed. Because if so, I'm totally going for a back row strengh minotaur rogue ...

Re: Dual wielding

Well, I guess I'll just give her a shield and boost her evasion even more then.

I understand the "one attack at the time" thing, but I would have had considered giving 1/2 the attack bonus of the off-hand dagger. Oh well! Live and learn.

Re: Dual wielding

Yes, I am aware, but I play with two mages, so the rogue will stay in the front.
