| Pillars of Eternity 2 Video-Based Walkthrough by David Milward |
Return to Neketaka
*Evil* The Watcher's Soul Reunited
The cinematic where Eothas emerges from Magran's eruption, continues through Ondra's tidal wave, and sends the Watcher on his way. I showed this part from the perspective of the evil party, since it references having sacrificed a prior companion during Pillars of Eternity 1 to Skaen's pool. The Watcher's soul is also reunited.
The Coming Storm
Alliria awakens in the throne room of the Main Floor of the Kahanga Palace. The Watcher power obtained during the Stranded Quest will now be upgraded, depending on which power was obtained.
Chorus of the Lost gets upgraded to Commandment of the Lost - All foes Distracted (-5 Perception, Flanked) and Immobilized (-5 Dexterity, cannot move) for 20 sec, once per Rest.
Alliria has Sympathy for the Lost upgraded to Pity for the Lost, All foes Distracted (-5 Perception, Flanked) for 20 sec and +35 Health and Fit (+5 Constitution) for all allies in 2.5m radius, once per Rest.
*Evil* Zarathos has No Pity for the Lost upgraded to No Time for the Lost - All foes Distracted (-5 Perception, Flanked) for 20 sec in 2.5m radius, duration of all hostile effects decreased by 10 sec and duration of all beneficial effects increased by 10 sec in 2.5m radius, Steadfast (+5 Resolve) for the Watcher for 20 sec, once per Rest.
Alliria now speaks with representatives from all of the Huana, the Principi, the Royal Deadfire Company and the Vailian Trading Company. The conversations started The Coming Storm Quest.
As a bit of foreshadowing, Alliria also promises Pallegina that she'll side with the Vailian Trading Company.
I "Wait" until morning and leave out the door at #1.
That brings me to the door at #8 on the map of Serpent's Crown. I buy gems from Una at #3.
Mapping the Archipelago: Razai Passage.
I go to the exit at #1 on the map of Serpent's Crown and bring in Aloth, Serafen, Ydwin and Fassina. I then travel directly to The Dark Cupboard in Periki's Overlook.
That brings me to #1 on the map of the main floor of The Dark Cupboard. I take the opportunity to advance my ship combatants to their last levels.
Fassina takes Martial Summoning on her 20th level-up. It helps her summon Nannasin's Cobra Strike a little faster.
Ydwin takes Echoing Horror on her 20th level-up. It causes nearby enemies to become Frightened (-5 Resolve, cannot use activated abilities) whenever she lands a killing blow. It's a good ability for a Cipher multi-class who frequently participates in Melee combat.
Serafen takes Instrument of Boundless Rage on his 20th level-up. It hits its initial target for at least 45-60 Crushing or Piercing Damage. It then unleashes a Fireball-attack that causes at least 37-48 Burning Damage to enemies only in a 2.5m radius. It's an activated ability that costs 3 Rage that also fits in with the fire theme of this particular Barbarian build.
I buy up crafting ingredients from the Imp at #2 and then leave out the front door.
That brings me to the door at #3. I buy up crafting ingredients at Cuitztli's at #2.
I then head for the exit at #1. I kick out everyone else and bring in only Konstanten and Rekke, because I want to maximize the next xp reward they get. I then travel directly to Sanza's Map Emporium, which is at #20 on the map of Queen's Berth.
Konstanten takes Stalwart Defiance on his 20th level-up. It reduces the Rage cost for using Savage Defiance from 3 to 2.
Rekke takes Inspired Strike. It upgrades Power Strike so that using it successfully also gives Rekke the Acute (+5 Intellect, +1 Power Levels) and Swift (+5 Dexterity, +100% Strike, cannot be Engaged) Inspirations for at least 10 sec.
I leave out the door, head for the exit at #22, and return to ship.
*Evil* Mapping the Archipelago: Razai Passage.
I take the opportunity to advance my remaining characters to their last levels. Maia takes Spell Resistance on her 20th level-up. It provides a 10% chance to avoid the effects of any hostile spell outright.
Serafen takes Prestige with his 20th level-up. The +1 bonus to Power Levels will enhance his use of Carnage and Panther's Leap.
Aloth takes Uncanny Luck on his 20th level-up. The 5% chance to avoid any attack and the 5% chance to convert a Hit to a Critical Hit are by now sugar on top in addition to everything else he can do.
I thereafter switch in only Konstanten and Rekke, because I want to maximize the next xp reward they get. I buy up crafting ingredients in The Dark Cupboard and Cuitztli's in Periki's Overlook.
I thereafter travel directly to Sanza's Map Emporium in Queen's Berth. I get 7,000cp, 10 Forgetful Nights and 35,000+ xp.
Konstanten takes Snake's Reflexes on his 20th level-up. It completes the rounding out of his Defenses other than Deflection.
Rekke takes Unbreakable on his 20th level-up. He'll revive on being knocked unconscious with 100 Health, +10 all Defenses for 30 sec, and +2 Armor Rating for 30 sec, once per Encounter. There's also the added benefit that getting knocked unconscious will trigger Shocking Damage to all nearby enemies through his Mantle of the Seven Bolts.
I now have at least two Adra Ban and two Emeralds. So now I upgrade Konstanten's Azure Blade from Superb to Legendary. I made Konstanten's weapon a priority at this point because being a Skald would in particular benefit from any increases to Accuracy.
The evil party will next deal with the Vailian Trading Company.
The good party will now begin Seeker, Slayer, Survivor.
