For Technists..

are the cross disciplinaries involving the gun smithy better than the ones involving the smithy such as the blade launcher?By the way,what exactly r automatons.they seem to rock...

 

automatons... i have 5 of 'em
i let them beat the crap out of kerghan

 

Automatons are good, but they don't increase their skills, and just store up character points...They also can't carry stuff for you. They are good because they never complain, they have great resistances yada yada yada, but there's nothing like having a few pack mules to do your bidding for you.

 

what bout the cross disciplinary weapon called the blade launcher?form other terra arcanum,it is supposed to be able to deal 30-60 physical damage.Is dat good?how much damage will the automatons be able to deal?
i am now deciding whether to be a technist btw guns,mechanical or armour?by the way, i dun seem to be ablt to recruit magnus....I had talked to him twice before exploring the schylers tombs..

 

blade launcher(just gunsmithy) is a good weapon if your going to be maxing your firearms, another good one is the tesla gun( gunsmithy, and electricity,)use the blade launcer against low dr creatures and tesla gun on creatures wearing metal armor(like chain mail) for most times they have low er

regarding magnus, he is a hard guy to keep happy, you need a good alignment and about lvl 8+

 

i hav an aligment of 50+ n i am also above lvl 8.but why is it dat when i talk 2 him,i only have this option in the chat to quit the chat.something like farewell,goodbye etc..How many smithy schematics can magnus learn?

 

does dat mean u r evil?

 

If you want to be techie using Firearms pick Gunsmithy and Electricity. You'll be weak at the beginning so raise your charisma fast to get 3-4 followers.

As for Magnus you must be polite while talking to him, don't laugh at him etc. and at the end of the dialog you'll get the option of asking him to join you.

 

Erm..

The problem is when i tries to start talking to him,i will only be given an option during chat to exit the chat...

 

Planning for my new character..

Would u recommend using guns rather than the mechanical spider?

 

Ah, well, you've screwed up the approach...you only get one chance with some NPC's...unfortunately for you, it looks like you've missed yours...

 

does dat mean u can get magnus to learn all the schematics in smithy section which is necessary for the spider?

 

*moved*
Why didn't I notice this thread before?? I must be getting old... :sad:

 

regarding the anarchid, this gadget is no good except if your going to make it as an automaton

about magnus do you have an extreme personality background, cuz this was the only time that he wont join me when i was using this background, esp when magnus reaction is not neutral

 

Nope..My background was beat with ugly stick.

 

Is the automaton a found schematic?

 

Yes it is a found schematic. However, because of the components required you will probably have to get full smithy and mechanical disciplines anyway (unless someone has found another solutions besides cheating).

 

Guns..

Is the blade launcher a good weapon overall?I am planning to get invest in gun smithy..

 

I didnt know Magus could use Schematics

 

He can't. No followers can.
