Seriously, decades of ultimate obedience and then his son shows up for, like, a day, and poof - he turns to mush. I mean, ivy! 0-30 at skill level 3, 0-240 at full glory. Forums. It's up to you how to split points between this and Smoke Bomb, but this is your single-target-blasting skill. Your special skill here is dragging a back row opponent to the front (unless they resist). The Burn is proportional, so 32 maxed out, and it stacks, and gets harder to resist every 3 levels. For a high level Ninja, that's practically nothing in the way of healing. Prepare to join Knights of Pen & Paper 2 in a turn-based, retro style, pixel-art adventure full of danger, intrigue, and semi-appropriate cultural references! Then next turn you use it again, and you're at 200 HP and 220 MP. Something to consider. Which does what? With the L size, 20% of the time useless. If you have Riposte and the added Threat that comes with it, all the better. All you care about is initiative so just equip moccasins/Green Icosahedron as nothing effects Hail damage. So maybe not all that awesome. Which means you'll be traipsing about with 86% (or 83% or 79%) critical. I'm not sure, but I'm putting it down to the mysterious antipathy the programmers clearly have for this guy. I'll give an overview of what each skill is like (good, great or SAKA {Super Awesome Kick Ass}) and it's general usage. And for our final entry, a welcome third lady friend. You can hit the back row, and maxed out you're doing 104 damage. This item will only be visible to you, admins, and anyone marked as a creator. And a host of other combinations. By the middle of the game your Ninja will be striking out with about 80% critical 3 times every turn. It does reasonable-ish damage (49 max) to the target, but most importantly stuns everyone on the field (if you have the game room thingy that makes "adjacent" skills hit all enemies - I maybe should have mentioned that before). Or, I suppose more accurately, dodge all the attacks. When you kill ones that are well below your level, you basically get nothing. But most of the time the majority of the group in any battle is gonna get hit with this. So, in theory, pretty great. While the next two passive skills are good, you could skip them easily and just focus on this one. Knights of Pen & Paper 2 is a turn-based, retro style, pixel-art adventure full of danger, intrigue, death, and saving throws! Despite the fact that a weapon is in the name, this is a spell. So, along with the Paladin (and the Cleric obviously), this is the only class that has a heal skill. This guide is about strategy, so it's assumed you've come here because you're halfway through your first play-through or starting your second and you want to know how different it would have been if you'd had your Ninja be a Dwarf or a Goth or leveled different skills. But after that, your options are few: there's one weapon you have to craft (with a static +3 spell damage bonus), one (unique) robe (+2 spell damage), and then an item you can purchase (for +2) and one unique item (for +3). For the latter, you're better off not getting too many Senses as really you'd rather be striking after your Mage or Paladin or (more likely) Ninja. Or even if you hit 3 enemies without Conditions, still good at 168 damage. Max the knives before anything else, although you could take the time to put 1 point in Stealth so you don't get hit more than once in a turn. More likely though, way before that, you're gonna realize how extra disappointing this skill is largely because of the promise it seemed to hold, and start your game over with a better Psion build. Which it was. Fully maxed this will give the rest of your party +32 MP, every single turn the Cleric uses any skill (which, usually, is every turn), which is enough to keep just about anyone in skill blasting heaven. For the record, that's more than anyone else (for a passive Threat level). And yeah, okay, maybe a very few times this will bring some kind of glass cannon opponent to the fore for proper pummeling, but really rarely - so rarely it's really not a boon at all. Touch of Blight is well established as a solid spell, and unless the irresistible Condition it inflicts is Stun or Confuse, the target of this will likely go for the Monk next turn and do no damage. Ms. Goldberry the Paladin who sits in the First Chair- As I looked over the trophies and read the guide and comments, I knew it was essential to have a tank, so I wanted to make the best tank I could by using the right character and made the role my first acquisition. Except of course if your target is stunned. But still, despite these minor flaws, hitting the enemy for a max of 392 total damage is nothing to laugh at. So even if, absolute worst case scenario, that Dragon kills your injured Barbarian as he's scurrying away with his axe between his legs, a few gold brings him back and a little rest gets him back to normal. As long as the Druid has the MP to keep it up, there's no appreciable difference though. But in practice the actual percentage difference is either non-existent or, maybe, possibly, few percentage at best. So, the upshot being, that Weapons are, essentially, better. Complete Google sign-in to access the Play Store, or do it later. Otherwise, it's up to you, but for my money I'd put my points in the other skills. I wanna say thorns, but it looks a little more like ivy. This is essentially like the Cleric's Restoration skill. Uh oh, somebody brought their pet Guinea Pig to the game. Release Date. You are for sure bringing this to the party if you brave the world of Paperos without a Cleric, and even if you have one, this is a great secondary skill to fill in the healing gap for the occasional high damage ur mewling little weak Mage gets. Just the bow, no crossbow, longbow, composite bow or anything. But if it's less than that, say 16 damage, he won't actually block all of it, he'll only block 8. "Threat -1 per level" - up to -5 Not sure what they were thinking with this one. So which one to choose? So i have hopefully fixed the rating back to the original Authors system. Which, by the way, is like the Mage and Warrior Stun, not like the Ninja which is Senses based. Don't skip this skill. After that it's Anger Management all the way. Guide for Knights of Pen & Paper 2 Deluxiest Edition - Party Setup. Remember that Paladin skill that causes Weakness? And your base critical chance with all the perfect items, weapon, and a Rich Kid Elf is 22% (19% if you stick to Almighty Rings, but that's a whole other story - and 15% if you're hunting for Sudden Death and have all the condition trinkets). So if you have another tank in the mix, you could let him take all the hits and focus on damage. If you can dig it, though, it is pretty sweet getting to level 84 (my personal best with a 2 man team) with 3 skills maxed and the last still at half mast. So, it's all pretty straightforward, and really if you don't want to there's no reason to worry about the hows and the whats, just follow the story and you'll be leveling up nicely and regularly as Gary intended. As with all Burn inflicting skills, this one has the added bonus of bypassing the first resistance roll. From the choices in here tied with the Bowling Set for usefulness, perhaps better in the early game and getting out of date as the values are static. (You could focus on Fireball here to help the Thief, but there's just no substitute for boosted Lightning). And "kind of" is a pretty good way of thinking about this guy. I'm not going to list any particular teams (although the Knight/Ninja combo I mentioned would be a good place to start), as that would be taking away from the fun of exploring. The Barbarian is unique in that his skills are mostly passive, which are all valuable and usable at any level (unlike skills that cause conditions on enemies for example, which you want to max out to be effective). And if you think of it as an equation, and whoever you heal actually needs all that HP, in the best possible scenario it equates to 448 damage (224 done and 224 healed), which is totally wicked. This is problem number two, and only gets worse with bigger enemies. Because, in effect, this means that when you can use the active skill every turn, you have a 104 HP buffer. Also, while I certainly could recommend which trinkets and weapons to use - and that for every stage of the game and for every tough fight - that's probably just a bit too OCD and I should talk to my therapist about even considering doing that. Look for Knights of Pen & Paper 2 in the search bar at the top right corner. Which is fine, someone has to mop up the dregs. So, remember that Cleave skill? Unfortunately, despite looking cool and having some genuinely groovy out-of-the-box-thinking kind of skills, kind of like the Hunter this guy is not terribly efficient unless you use him just right. Also less attractive as a 3 point skill because they can resist this, and at level 3 it's only -2 to their roll. One place where he shines though is with the Barbarian, for a specific build, as it removes the Rage he generates each time you attack with his skill, meaning you can use the skill every turn. Mage: good single target damage, great group damage. Here the Knight will be doing what he does best, pro-level defense. Although it wouldn't be that dark, because Paladins have a tendency to wear shiny things, have shiny skills, and just be shiny in general. In-Game. There are 3 of these in the game. But you can't measure a skill by what you may or may not pair it with. Your crit chance will be half of what it could be - or less, but there's still a chance and it'll be lovely to watch when it does happen. Or, perhaps, just misspoke. But let's look at each separately: Weapons can be upgraded, up to +5 (as a category), which varies a little in what it actually provides. Or rather, I really want to like him. Likewise level 6 will carry you through to level 25 or so, allowing you to focus on leveling Radiance throughout. With the ferret-like thing in the mix, this does mean you can spend your time protecting two of your fellows each turn, one for the fighter each turn and one for each other player so, in a long enough fight, you're basically warding the whole party the whole time. And that's a fair amount, but only gets your Frostbite from 136 to 182. Side quests are either standalone (help the Noob) or a package of several (the Lich and High School) but not too many quests, and are, in theory, optional as they don't usually even relate to the main story. Both the Warlock and Mage max out at 136 in the single damage category, and they all inflict Conditions in their own way so, really, I don't get it. With this skill maxed and two turns of using it, your Knight will have around 200-300 Threat (hilarious, right?). Another user - will update and re-evaluate the usefulness of furniture and give some information. Before the strategy though, I'll just explain how these 3 systems work, because they're all actually different. Or man of the wild, more precisely. But dungeons are long, and while you may take little damage, you're going to start running out of energy possibly even before you get to the second level of the dungeon, so MP friendly items and potions will be a must. So I'd go with Backstab just because it often means you strike first and the Paladin will strike close to last, meaning on your second turn you can get double damage on most of the monsters without giving them time for a second resistance roll. Also, often your weakest players, who are normally protected by their low Threat, get that hit that was intended for your Barbarian. But if you so choose you can buy (or occasional find as item drops from kills) mushrooms. The difference being the damage is not variable nor affected by weapon or damage bonuses. The practical problem though is that it's the ones getting hit what need the healing (your Knights and Barbarians) and the ones who aren't getting hit who don't need it (your Mages and Ninjas). Toss a bunch of arrows in the air, and they fall down for up to 56 damage, to a specific number of enemies. The final bosses AoE damage. This does mean he won't improve all that much from the middle to the end of the game, but he's still going to be dishing out the best damage magic can do in this game from start to finish. But really that's just a gimmick that you won't be using, probably ever, as it would require everyone else to Take Cover in a turn (as if they were, like, sitting down by a tree as a group, pulling out a pipe and sharing it among the four of them while they lay out a picnic, at which point they glance over at the Knight facing 5 Ice Trolls, telling him: "You got this, man"). Mage as higher initiative than druid and thief so that by going first, the enemies get burned followed by being stuned by vines and finally the barrage of knives adds the icing to the cake. But in practice, a little hard to make it work. So this is pretty groovy. Now, of course, use this with Psychosomatics and you have the tactical gratification of protecting and damaging at the same time. The fact that you can hit the back row with this as well is just sweet delicious blood-flavored icing on your death-dealing cake. This is all true if what you're hoping to get out of this skill is some healing. Max out frenzied strike, pot a point into Rampage and the rest into Anger Management. So, you're one of those eh? All good options. This, right here, used to be how you got the highest possible critical chance in the game. Which means it's a weak version of Touch of Blight or Frostbite, but with conditions that actually have good stacking damage. The Game Room, which is the place where all this role playing is actually happening, is full of various pieces of furniture and games and decorations and whatnot, and they're actually a crucial part of your strategy. So if you do want a Paladin, you're not really going to want to bring him for this. Nor are there any bad skills. 1 Point in discipline, so damage is evenly split between HP and MP (So he's basically immortal). But anything I cover later on that requires a little basic explanation will have it. Feel better! At higher levels it's just too little (as any other static values). In fact, if you don't have that Cleric in your party constantly refilling your MP, you're never gonna really feel like you have enough MP (unless you happen to be a juju-swapping Monk) - especially in dungeons. Run out of energy? The only thing this won't work against is a Dragon, 'cause they are the whole battlefield, but everything else in the game will get shuffled around including bosses. This skill, its stats that is, is actually okay. Like I did. You just can't find good evil help these days. How to Download and Play Knights of Pen and Paper 3 on PC. And if you have your rat-pug furball doing the double-it jig on the table, you'll be up there with Ninja Shadow Chain criticals and Barbarian smashing - although not quite all the way up there. What places this firmly in the theater of the absurd is that he can keep adding to his Threat like this, every turn. If all you've got is casters, it's gonna be a tough slog. Even low level bosses seem to resist everything you throw at them almost all the time. But with this skill in mind, that might make sense then - except it doesn't because this skill hits the back row anyway. And lo! If only you could get 150'000xp for a single quest by the end of the game. The Ninja is still the king of Criticals though, and you're about to find out why. So he can heal 208 HP with this skill maxed out, with an added 104 HP for himself, or 312 HP combined if he wants to be extra greedy. Another one of those "never played a game without him" players. Oh the mysterious Warlock! The Kawaii sofa will help reduce the threat value of all other chracters except the knight to 1. If the condition sticks that's 154 damage for the hit, which is better than any other spell (which this is), but if you do that this is all the Hunter is good for. It increases your critical chance by up to 32%, but more importantly gives you an extra hit after a critical with the potential for more criticals and more hits. Don't find it that useful, but it's not bad against some monsters with high damage reduction. This is assuming they're both naked, by the way. But even if you level this to just 3, that's 113% weapon damage, but you'll still get the critical, and if you're concerned about his health, put some points in Second Skin and/or Discipline to make him thoroughly undefeatable with only a moderate sacrifice to his potential damage. Pair with any of the 5 straight up combat (fighter) classes. First of all, this is a non-event for your casters as their damage is all set. "Gain +1 bonus to Investigate rolls per level" - up to +5. Without your Go Set, that Fireball and that Barrage of Knives most often won't hit all the baddies, especially as the fight goes on and you pick them off. About half the time before that, and by committing to this you're not as strong or tough as, well, you aught to be. If you don't have one or more skills in your team that need the Go Set, take this instead. The Hulk, essentially. David Pastrnak's $90 million contract with the Bruins is GM Don Sweeney's latest artwork. The beauty with this team is that it's pretty rare that you'll find yourself in any real danger since you'll be killing everything foolish enough to cross your path most often in 1 or 2 turns. I've actually kind of spoiled the reveal on this skill having explained the healing magic you can get with it back in Anger Management, but suffice it to say that, no matter your build, this skill is likely gonna be your priority. But largely you'll be maxing out Na Palm for it's excellent damage and burning-itude. Threat is relative, so if everyone gets Threat -X, yes, okay your Mage at 10 Threat will go to 9-5 and your Warrior with (in battle) 50 Threat will go down to 49-45, so it's a bigger difference for the Mage. This is, damage-wise, the same as the Mage's Lightning at 104 damage max. Put 1 or 3 points in True Strike to start, so that most of his strikes will be Criticals regardless, then max out Bulwark. He's got like 4 extra skills your barbarian doesn't have and he gets 2 attacks each turn, for some reason. Downloads. But maybe that's my fault. This, really, is the most innovative and exceptional skill he's got, allowing you to stun and hit, or hit and heal, or heal and stun in a single turn. Like the Goth, you might want him because his attributes are the best option if you've got, say, a slew of casters in your team. I'd rather get in to the Bestiary later, but I do need to get in to it here just to explain what her skill actually brings to the table: Basically the Bestiary lets you know more about your opponents, such as their attributes and vulnerabilities, which can actually be really helpful if you take the time to research it all (like a proper Bookworm) so you know what abilities to use on them most effectively and stuff like that.
