What party are you playing with, and why? (No spoilers) (sopuli.xyz)

I am currently playing as Ifan, and have chosen Sebille, Fane and The Red Prince as my companions.

I chose Ifan as my character simply because a lone wolf seemed to be someone I wouldn't choose as a companion.

Sebille had this very interesting introduction with the needle. That was quite something. Also, her volunteering to be in the camp for revenge is exciting.

Fane was incredibly fun on the boat. Just reading his book not caring about anything else. Also the fact that he is secretly undead is very interesting.

And The Red Prince - I honestly don't know. He just appears to be a fun guy.

How about you?

It's my first time playing but I just jumped in (with a little help in builds from fextralife) and didn't look back.

I'm playing as Fane, I just dig the backstory, something about unknown loss, and I think it's interesting that undead in general have to keep their faces hidden (don't think that's a spoiler, pretty sure they're clear about that in character creation). Build I'm going with is a Tectonic Sage. I also have Beast with me as a battlemage My wife is playing as Sebile, necro/pyro and she has Ifan with her.

I'm digging the game so far, just finished act 1!

fextra? really? maybe I'm jaded from all of their "technically-legal-now-banned" twitch viewbotting. but wasn't their wiki just a front for that view botting? I assumed the wiki content would be bunk. hopefully I'm wrong.

this is the first comment I've ever seen in the wild that has said anything remotely positive about fextra.

All I know is that back then when I was still using reddit, everyone in the DoS2 sub warned to not use fextralife builds, saying they were bad builds. I went with builds by Lost Sinner from the guide section on Steam. Those builds work well. For new players I also recommend Lost Sinners walk-through guide, it helped me to jump right into the game.

I had no idea, I hadn't heard of them at all before searching for guides but think some YouTube guides pointed back to them. Thanks for the heads up!

Edit: figured I should ask, do you have any preferred sources for info on quests, items, build, etc that you've found to be good and would recommend?

Search Lost Sinner in the guides section for DoS2 on Steam. Great character builds and walkthrough guide. I never looked further after I found those.

oh no not really. I'm a bumbler. I like to suffer thru my own builds and the meta-game for me is just how far I can make it before I have to start over. if I fail I get mad but its part of the enjoyment when I eventually do overcome, so I may have been out of place to critique.

I'm super glad you found something that works for you

Their build guides for DOS2 are pretty solid for the most part

Fane is just such a fun character. Probably my favourite!
