What have been some of your takeaways and must haves?

Lost the first one to w'wargaz as I thought I could do it without a throw barb ( could not ) Cut to him summoning 3 swords at every party member. That dude is no joke with the legendary actions.

Started a new one playing as gale. Died early but chose to continue for practice. Ketheric was next trouble. He seems like a multi attack check. If you're not aware every death within 40 feet of him is a new undead aoe birth. Dual crossbow thief warrior for crowd and oathbreaker for single target damage. About to go against the aspect and semi dreading it.

Only cleared about half of act 3 in the past, but plan to finish it with this gale honor practice save.

What have been your key takeaways from honor mode? Any must have builds or gear for your personal playstyle?

It's been a good step up from tactician feeling different but not overly bs imo.

but forgot the hammer

What do you mean you forgot the hammer? You don't need any hammer when Gale blows up. He goes up by himself and there is a cutscene and he goes boom.

Yeah but I had to side with the emperor first.

Yeah but you can still just send up Gale. As long as he is in your party when you get to the brainstem up to the final fight you can send him up there. Unless they changed it in a patch.

I don't think so but I fucked up the dialog tree and died because I did not want to side with the emperor.

and died.

Yep, that'll end the run.
