You're losing to Mira? He doesn't even seem to do anything much of the time.

So how do people tend to build their characters? Do you guys focus on maxing out a single stat, or do you try to keep things fairly balanced as you gain attribute points?

No, I haven't added the advances. Mostly because I wasn't sure how much each rank gave. I don't think I have any points left, but I'll check when I get home.

By any metric you choose to use, my new boss is a goddamn moron. I have no idea how he even got this job.

First off, I already have Weapon Training (Chain) :P

Secondly, I used the roll that the character builder gave me: Trust in Your Fear. It increases Perception by 5 but gains the Phobia mental disorder. I don't know if I choose the phobia or if the GM rolls dice for it or what.

Had a perfectly good run as Eve ruined by sheer dumb luck. I had a poisonous Brimstone (green lasers ftw), Dark Bum, Bob's Explosive Brain, Crack the Sky, plenty of soul hearts with a single red heart as backup in order to keep Whore of Babylon active full-time, and miscellaneous other goodies. I could one-shot most any enemy and even bosses fell quickly.

And then I stepped into a room that had 6 dots on the floor, arranged like the face of a die. When that happened, my entire loadout changed. The deathlaser was replaced by shielded bouncing tears that I believe were supposed to pierce (but bounced instead), and the Dark Bum vanished in favor of four familiars, only one of which had a ranged attack. Crack the Sky was replaced by the Dead Sea Scrolls (only half-charge, so useless against Mom). My attack bird was gone, Whore of Babylon was gone, and when I died I came back to life as ??? despite not having it unlocked! Argh! I really thought I could win this one!

What about the poison, birdy?

@Sirus: I read it wrong and thought five points had been added. Nevermind that. Oh, and according to the FAQ you don't need Linguistics (Low Gothic) to be able to read and write. Everyone is assumed to be literate to a degree, and taking the Linguistics (Low Gothic) skill is only a way to show you have advanced knowledge of the language.
Oh? Good to know. Guess I can put that xp to something more useful. I'm already planning to get Leap Up at some point, but is there anything you'd recommend instead?

Great, I'm completely useless against all the enemies >_<

Someone give me an idea of where to move Grifen. I just got home from a 12-hour non-stop shift and I can't summon up the energy to look through coordinates right now.

@Sirus: you can just leave Influence at 20 and get those 5 points somewhere else. Feral Worlders are more on the killy side than on the influential one anyway and someone else can handle requisitions for her.
...what 5 points? That 25 is the base stat for point-buy, I didn't put any points in there.

Alright, guess I'll go ahead and get some of that Guard Flak. Better protection all around!

Think I'll also go with the sniper rifle. The lack of Felling is a pity, but it does have longer range and higher armor penetration, plus specialty ammo.

Does Guard Flak make it more difficult to dodge attacks, or sneak around?

Is there any chance I could start with some sort of rifle using that rather poor Influence? I wouldn't mind having something with decent range, maybe a marksman's rifle.
