At max level, it's the standard +32% to criticals. Now go to the Play Store and look for "Knights of Pen and Paper 3.". There is nothing wrong with this skill, it adds health and damage reduction. This is essentially like the Cleric's Restoration skill. So ultimately, this turns out to be another case of "why would I bring this guy instead of the other guy who's better at it?" I will say part of the fun is just what they look like. The Body boost is the highest there is (3), so your damage, health and threat all go up. After 2 or 3 hits, they're hardly going to see the other players (unless there's a Knight in the mix) and hit only you. So, unlike the above opus to one skill, this will be brief. I'll take Frostbite over that, thank you, even with the resistance roll. Don't skip this skill. The Health is inconsequential, practically, but the Energy regen is only a third of what the Cleric provides, and if they're both on your team kiss your MP worries goodbye. Very straightforward. So, depending on the monster, they may rarely resist this or, if they're Bandits or something like that, they can resist this more than half the time, even maxed out. This is very good, necessary even to make this skill worth it, because the Stun, even if they don't resist it, goes away after one turn so you only get one 56 HP hit out of it. And all weapons come with perks that your fists don't. Likewise level 6 will carry you through to level 25 or so, allowing you to focus on leveling Radiance throughout. I've played through with a Monk focusing on this skill and one focusing on Martial Arts for the bare-fisted awesomeness. Which is still double your pleasure, but also double your MP cost and you'll find that your Druid has developed an MP potion addiction and is hoarding them in a burrow back at Spawn Point Village. In particular, Knights of Pen and Paper 2 also features randomization for a dungeon system, classic . Feel better! I'm not going to list any particular teams (although the Knight/Ninja combo I mentioned would be a good place to start), as that would be taking away from the fun of exploring. Okay, so 1 point for Body and 2 for Senses. The idea is to clear the back row while the knight and ninja sudden death the enemies in front. Tank;Healer;DPS There is a reason that so many MMO's have this kind of set up in dungeons. Knights of Pen and Paper 2 Steam charts, data, update history. If you have a shield as well, that's up to another 15%. See, it's all about the criticals. In that case this is awesome. This lets you restore energy to your compadres, but passively, meaning it happens automatically when you use any of your active skills. This fixes that and, now that I see it in action on a regular basis, I'm kind of sorry I complained. Which means you'll be traipsing about with 86% (or 83% or 79%) critical. Get Radiance maxed, Restoration will be your main heal and you'll want a few points in purge to save you from confused debuffs. I personally value it less just because other choices for Shelves are better. But that group skill will have you asking yourself why you didn't just bring the Thief with the mark 2.0 version of the Hunter's skill. It was released on May 13, 2015 for iOS and Android, and on October 20, 2015 for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux through Steam. He's your quintessential support character. Your specialist Player extraordinaire (+3 Senses). All good options. It's why she's so macabre all the time. He will have just the 1 extra point in Mind though, but that's okay as you'll be leveling both skills equally, and Psychosomatics is completely free (and it pairs well with the Hunter's Hail of Arrows). But still this is going to be better than your elf's MP boost in the long run (actually, not even that long - you'll make up those 20 MP by about level 6), and then you get that extra skill point. So, seriously, this guy rocks. Now, the "best setup" possible for a good game and a great boss battle is the Paladin, Cleric, Mage, Ninja, and . Lieutenant-General Robert Stephenson Smyth Baden-Powell, 1st Baron Baden-Powell of Gilwell, OM, GCMG, GCVO, KCB, KStJ, DL (/ b e d n p o l / BAY-dn POH-l; (Commonly pronounced by others as / p a l / POW-l) 22 February 1857 - 8 January 1941) was a British Army officer, writer, founder and first Chief Scout of the world-wide Scout Movement, and founder, with his . Well, despite all the doom and gloom so far, the next two skills are actually alright, and redeem the Hunter. Something to consider. This is very significant, and applies to your Barbarian Jock with an axe Charmed against Weakness with a Paladin in the group laying on the Weakness all the time. But that's what your potions are for. The buy it option comes in the form of mushrooms you can find in every shop, and that some monsters drop when slain. From the choices in here tied with the Bowling Set for usefulness, perhaps better in the early game and getting out of date as the values are static. With a Jock Dwarf your MP will be almost only half of your HP, but if you go with a Rocker Human, they'll be almost equal - so just 1 point in this and then you've come close do doubling the damage you can take, and in the process maybe get one or several free attacks. Still, the Warlock is worth bringing just for the damage this skill can inflict. See, Frenzied strike makes you heal yourself in addition to enraging you, for 104 HP at best. Despite the fact that a weapon is in the name, this is a spell. So, the upshot being, that Weapons are, essentially, better. To make this build work you get any char with high crit (ninja or monk each deal status on attack, knight is also a potential option). Which means that you're statistically more likely to score a critical hit on every attack than not - with the not wholly unlikely chance of 3 critical hits. But Bulwark, here, is the primary focus. That said, most classes have a single target high damage attack, a group target lower damage attack, and then other stuff (that makes them unique). It's a free condition to some enemy. But ultimately, as in any team without a purging Cleric, your greatest challenge is going to come from late game Conditions falling on you all the time. Does that help? Be sure to use the latest crafted weapons and armor with this fellow, and all will be well. In this context, I would call it a blunder. So, depending on the situation, this can be pretty devastating. Nevertheless, the damage starts off pretty weak and only gets up to 128%. I agree with you, Radirez, that the rocker elf paladin is the best at absorbing damage, but I believe that an enraged dwarven barbarian would be a close second. This is very not true. If you use it on your weak little Warlock, yes, okay, he'll take less damage from the hit, but still, he got hit. At level 12 you kill 5 Rat Traps, and you'll barely even notice the increase on that little yellow XP line. Any single weapon user is only ever going to be able to inflict 5 conditions at once (the Ninja is really the best at this as just 1 skill point gets him Wound and he doesn't have to be a Lab Rat) and that's all you need to inflict the condition with level 2 Weapon Rack! But I did, and it's staying. In fact, this skill qualifies as SAKA as far as I'm concerned if (and only if) you pair with the Rocker. And, while we're on that topic, just a little shy of that skill's awesomeness. Even better, the ward lasts until hit, so assuming whoever you cast this on doesn't get hit in a given turn (that 1 Threat Ninja, say), you can stuck up a few wards in a battle. A number of classes and players in this game are, to put it bluntly, superior. could only upgrade hurricane 2-5 points and put all in static field if u have . So the Knight, for example, who benefits most from good armor, would have almost only half his MP if you pair him with any other player. Like the Goth, you might want him because his attributes are the best option if you've got, say, a slew of casters in your team. Early on. And the Monk has a healing loophole, but that's just for his own self. This also means you can spare him the energy cost of wearing armor, meaning more Decoys. At the start, it's scarce, and there are several temptations out of your reach. Players get the sense of gamers hanging out, bantering, and asking to pass the Mountain Dew. And that's fine, although not as fine as a 10 gold +75 energy potion, but there are only so many skill points in a game. Which means that maxed out you're hitting all of them, but until you get there, you're not. And that "1 point ward" build is, of course, the best combo here, but unlike with the bear situation it doesn't make up for a weakness (the lack of bear toughness), so even though this skill is best used with that build, it doesn't change the value (or rating) of Grappling Vines. View full lot details. I think the devs might have heard my complaint filter through the ether, because before the Psion, the Warlock and Criticals where you replace your weapon with an eye-glass were the only way to cause Confuse - neither of which gave you a good chance at it actually happening. So, if you're me, this is why you brought the Thief to the party. (Note: This skill does not regenerate the Cleric's MP, which is why you're going to have to rely on MP regenerating Trinkets (preferably), or potions, or good old fashioned rest from time to time.). So more realistically like 170, near the end of the game, around 120 before that, plus that first attack is only whatever the demon can muster by himself. To play with. All the other Conditions stick around until resisted. Which can be helpful with the low level enemies. But basically, he's good enough to be any character. I did do one playthrough without him, just once, and at the end I felt hollow inside, like the magic was missing from my life. So, you're one of those eh? Mostly. And setting fights up to watch fancy skills is not only cruel and unusual for your enemies, but a little on the narcissistic side. 'Cause you don't need a Mage with a less powerful side-kick second mage in your team, really. Level Hail of Arrows and Ambush together so the casting cost stays low, and watch her blossom from a grub-like 3 target wiffle-batter to a full battlefield decimator when she finally gets going. Just a quick note on the two kinds of damage you can dish out. And here especially, as once the battle's over you're going to need that phoenix feather anyway. Or level Stealth so your basic attacks are critical a third of the time. Meaning you need to roll higher (well, lower technically) than your Senses. Cool personified, the Hipster seems particularly aptly placed here. Players each have a passive ability and a boost to one or more of each of the 3 attributes (Body, Senses, and Mind). It makes you a non-target, although group attacks will still get you, but it's just the least productive response to low health. But maybe that's my fault. So the upshot is: mushrooms are a shortcut to level up quick at the beginning, in particular - or rather, only - if you don't want to hang around slaying extra cave bats. The point is, the best weapons and armor in the game are ones you craft yourself. . And this skill is just as terminally useless against bosses as that one. In this game, he's somewhere in the middle, as far as the story goes. How much XP they get is always front and center, but how much they need to get to the next level is just vaguely represented by a thin yellow line on their character sheet. Knights of Pen and Paper 2. 3 - I'm guessing you missed my disclaimer at the outset of this guide where I state my unequivocal vitriolic loathing for what Paradox has done to this gem of a game. If you get the game room item that lets you have 7 creatures in a fight instead of 5 (the Go game), 4 of those will be in front and you can maximize this skill. Oh the mysterious Warlock! Das Spiel basiert auf der Open Game License des Dungeons & Dragons-Regelwerks in Version 3.5.In deutscher Sprache wird das Rollenspiel seit 2009 von Ulisses Spiele vertrieben. "Anything affecting adjacent enemies can affects all enemies (50%/100% probability)" - Some of the group attack skills in this game don't need this, like the row damaging ones and Life Steal and Hail of Arrows, but most of them (and all the best ones) do. "Meh" items are the pretty pointless ones, and largely qualify as such because there is no scaling - like Damage Reduction +2, which is significant for your first 10 levels or so, and pretty meaningless after that - but still it's a bonus. They might bop you on the way out with a single hit, then down a potion or two if you need to and go back into the same room. But that ability, that beautiful ability, which lets him ignore the armor penalties on your energy. But this just per turn, not until the rage goes away like the Barbarian. Nor are there any bad skills. Weakness hobbles your fighters, especially the builds focused on Criticals, but makes no difference to the casters. In addition to helping the Ninja disintegrate anything he gets a crit on, he's the Thief's new best buddy as it's his Weakness infliction that makes Barrage of Knives glorious instead of just really good. "Receive 4% more XP per level" - up to +20%. Put one point in Black Arts for the Wound perk, then start with just the 1 point in Shadow Chain and follow that by maxing out Vanish. Giving your level 20 Mage a mushroom will just give him a little indigestion, but you'll barely even see that XP bar move. And "kind of" is a pretty good way of thinking about this guy. But most of the time the majority of the group in any battle is gonna get hit with this. Past that from level 10 on, you might as well be blowing on them. 2,115 314. Why is that? So only invest in some mushrooms if you just want to skip the noob-level stuff at the beginning. But that's pretty rare, as most often you'll be slicing your enemies into cubes before that happens anyway. But anyway you get a bonus if you max out your knowledge for every critter, as the last thing you get is +2 damage against it. Valve Corporation. So if you max this out, you only get one other option, so it's hit and hit, heal and heal, stun and stun. All rights reserved. You need to know what condition you're inflicting so you can line them all up - this skill is almost worse than nothing in that respect. (And yes, the Paladin can cast this on himself for a 150% heal). By the end of the game, with better items, than can get up to about 90%. I've never had the pleasure of that, but have seen the Barbarian boss (fittingly) pulverized in that manner. Like I said before, highly versatile. And for our final entry, a welcome third lady friend. Adding them up is relevant, because this skill's other perk is that all incoming damage is divided equally between HP and MP. Take the Warrior, strip him down to one active skill and make him a regenerating critical powerhouse and, voila. See, Confuse does just what it advertises, and your afflicted target will attack a random friend or foe. It's just a question of either/or, and each build is pretty awesome. Although you have to want it, wait for it, and you have to build your party around helping that - but it can be done. Alternatively, for the former, you could still be a Human Lab Rat, but level Backstab along with this for the Initiative boost (and a basic attack that's actually worth something if you're the first one to hit them), so that you're nearly always the first to strike. 3. And even if they manage that, they need to do it every turn or Thrud here will just keep healing back up to maximum. If only you could level up almost every couple quests instead of every five or six. This is quite useful, especially for heavy energy users or Knights. The enemies need to do more than that much damage to actually bring your non-enraged HP down at all. You'll want a few points in Acrobatics (3, 6, 9 ramping up as seems necessary) for the perk and some Threat, as this is the (only) tank for this team. About though, not exactly. Well, at least a little. But if you want that highest possible Senses score with your Rich Kid Ninja, Elf is the way. Her special ability is to heal 5 HP and 5 MP to the whole party whenever she blocks an attack. While this Hunter will be a little disappointing in the early game thanks to Hail of Arrows' weird target restriction mechanic, and the slow to improve and not-always-kicking-in skill that is Ambush, she'll truly shine come the mid to late game. At that point I came back and switched this on (and used the unique item that helps with this), and found the Dragon soon enough. Because the shuffling is random but also not guaranteed. Your special skill here is dragging a back row opponent to the front (unless they resist). The reason you needed to replace my rating system was because you felt the need to update the data. Stunned critters lack the ability to resist anything, so if you can time it right (like, ideally, with a bomb-crazed Ninja stunning the field all the time) then this will electrically boogaloo your victim to a charred crisp in the most glorious way the game allows for a spell for a single target (Thanks, Ekitchi, for educating us about this in the comments). (You could focus on Fireball here to help the Thief, but there's just no substitute for boosted Lightning). Leveling both skills at about the same pace is, like for most of the guys in this team, the best approach here. Meaning with the XL monsters there's a 33% chance this will be useless. As long as the Druid has the MP to keep it up, there's no appreciable difference though. It would be a waste to leave your Rug dial set here for the game, but certainly in the beginning when you're finding a new location every few quests you could leave it here for a bit. Ages of men and of Outsiders have ascended and been forgotten, and only the bones of their cities and the So which one to choose? Price . Which won't likely be an issue if that Cleric is at your back, and even if he isn't, one regular 75MP potion gets you back in the fight for a few turns. But even if you add all that bonus-ing up, including the Arcane Flow, that's a +46 damage bonus. In practice you'll get up to around 85% to 95% critical. A Weapon Rack - which is, unlike a Rug, an acceptably cool item to build your team around. "Restore 50 per level Health for each Critical you land" - up to 250. So while a Warrior's basic attack damage at level 40 is only gonna be hovering around 50-80 (as a range, not an approximation), with a nice skill like Power Lunge he'll regularly be dishing out 200 damage and more. Your Cleric is definitely the premier energy boosting specialist. The Knight has a kind of ancillary healing effect to one of his skills, but it's pretty weak. And that's the downside of this skill. And 8 Burn doesn't stack up to much. The Surfer is good here, not so much because it's the perfect fit, but because he's the only player left with 2 Body, and the other ones are more needed where they are in this team. Alright, so with all the classes and their skills covered, and the details of the Game Room that can (and usually do) have a profound affect on your party dynamics, and a better understanding of the types of damage, we can get into actually putting 5 of these weirdos together and seeing what they can do. The abilities have, for the most part, far more impact than the attribute boosts. So, along with the Paladin (and the Cleric obviously), this is the only class that has a heal skill. I think I've already established the general superiority of Stun as a condition, and in addition to some very good damage (136 at max level), you'll stun your hapless victim as well. Assemble your party and control your group of pen and paper role-players as they are guided through their adventures by the Game Master. So, remember that Cleave skill? With this skill maxed and two turns of using it, your Knight will have around 200-300 Threat (hilarious, right?). That's the glass half full perspective. The Paladin is the synergistic glue here, and after maxing out Smite he kicks in with the game's best individual healing spell, which is what he'll be using to keep the Barbarian alive when they all face the dreaded Blue Dragon at the bottom of the Crystal Caverns. Which is 416 points of damage in one go, and the only other skill that consistently gets up in to those numbers is Barrage of Knives. I would fix the stats back to the non *20 values, but, sadly i am stuck owning Knights of pen and paper +1 on pc and only owning Knights of pen and paper 2 on my mobile, so i can not confirm those numbers, if someone can i urge them to og through the article and change the numbers to a x/(x*20) format. So, with few exceptions (like the Barbarian and maybe the Monk), any build is going to focus on only 2 skills (not counting 1 point skills for a perk). While the energy regeneration here is lovely, really it's the damage boost that makes it great. However, some of the side quests (like the White Dragon) get you items you're likely going to want. At level 3 you'll be dispelling 2 conditions for the team, which is usually plenty for a bit there as conditions don't stack up much in the beginning. The glass half empty perspective is that, in order for this skill to kick in and allow you to damage anything that attacks you, your health needs to be all gone. Because, in effect, this means that when you can use the active skill every turn, you have a 104 HP buffer. Second, it's mathematically a non-event for your weapon users too as the damage will average out to exactly the same.
