    Any single-player RPG where I can build my char around DoT (damage over time) spells/skills?

    I'm just curious, because I played lots and lots of RPGs but can only remember DoT builds being viable in MMOs, notably WoW: Affliction Warlock and EverQuest Necromancer. I can only remember DoT being "viable" in a single player game, in Diablo 2's "poisonmancer," in Two Worlds 1...

    Your favorite class(less) system

    There are many class systems preset in RPG's, to name some : Characters as classes - Very common in mmos from Korea and Japan and in some looter shooters who identify as RPG's like Borderlands 1/2/3. Classless - You are what you wear - eg - Albion Online, your character is nothing, what he is...

    Best nethermancy/shadow magic in RPG's

    Yes, another thread to sperg about a particular type of magic. This time, with shadow magic or nethermancy. I know that IRL, darkness is merely the lack of light. But in fantasy, is the opposite force to the light. Just like cold IRL is just the lack of heat, but in video games, is a force. That...

    RPG's with great cryomancy/hydromancy/etc

    I have a topic to discuss necromancy in RPG's ( https://rpgcodex.net/forums/threads/best-necromancy-on-rpgs.130867/ ), Other aspect of magic which I really enjoy is the cryomancy, hidromancy and similar stuff. Recently, I tried to do a Azata Cryomancer(Elemental specialist - cold) run in PF:WoTR...

    [BG2:EE] - Legacy of Bhaal run as a solo Necromancer

    Here is a proof . This not includes ToB. Only SoA(shadows of Amn). First of all, why necromancer? Because I like necromancy. Necromancers loses a lot of powerful illusion spells. Simulacrum, Mirror Image(...) but can prepare a additional spell per day and enemies does a save against...

    What is the point of low lethality?

    Oblivion is the most iconic example, on normal, at lv 40+, with maxed STR, magically enchanted daedric warhammer, maxed blunt weapon, some mobs like Xivilais can soak 50 hits. Each lv up of the player gives + 12 hp to a Xivilai but each lv up from the player hardly gives +1 damage and has a hard...

    Any C/ARPG with good technomancer class implementation?

    When I mean techomancer, I mean things like creating magical robots, terraforming planets, taking control over enemy battleships and droids, creating mini black holes in a high fantasy and high technological setting. Not a guy with a electric staff and very few spells on long cooldowns(you know...

    D&D 2e - Your favorite mage kits.

    For those who din't played 2e, mages had many "kits" and Warlocks/Witches existed on 2e as a mage kit(page 65 quote bellow - Complete Wizard's handbook - page 65); IDK if there sorcerers kits on 2e, but if sorcerers existed on 2e, they would be a class which requires no scrolls but can only...

    Warlocks on RPG's. Which one do you prefer?

    here are many definitions of warlock. But for this topic, i will define warlock as a otherworldly version of a wizard. Just like a druid is a natureish version of divine caster. Often their eldritch knowledge involves becoming a apprentice/servant of a otherworldly being. They are not clerics...

    What is the most NERFED class on P&P adaptations?

    IMO are two. Pale masters(nwn1) and warlocks(nwn2) PALE MASTERS : Pale masters on NWN1 are pretty weak. They receive no caster level and are limited to only one summon despite being no one summon limit on previous D&D adaptation like BG1/BG2. It is sad when you consider that enemy necromancers...

    Why are RPG gamers more tolerant with bullshit mechanics?

    EDIT : PLEASE. READ THE SECOND PARAGRAPH. This is not a topic only about cooldowns. The new Contra rogue corps had the """"genial"""" idea of implementing cooldowns of firearms and everyone is hating it. Mocking it. Saying that is a artificial limitation that makes no sense only to force the...
