We'll see about that later. But still, often useless. It'll cost next to nothing, the Druid will still have the mojo to maul or vine every turn, and especially in a dragon-type situation when the ward negates a 200 HP hit, this will be invaluable. And if Sudden Death tickles your fancy, this skill won't help (just like Touch of Blight doesn't), as inflicting random conditions is pretty frustrating to have to try to work around. 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. On the other hand, not using abilities is most of the times counter-productive despite the higher damage. Just a quick note on the two kinds of damage you can dish out. "You can set up fights with 1/2 more enemies" - I'm not much into setting up fights, I'm happy just following the story. I've given each one of them a rating (good, great, SAKA - which means Super Awesome Kick Ass), which is little more than my personal opinion, but then all of this is, isn't it? At level 20 you really can't tell the difference. Yes, you can bring him up to 10 or 12 body or whatever, but he's still gonna feel paper thin compared to any of the Fighters and what they can handle because the body boost doesn't actually add HP and there's no synergy skill like the Barbarian has to take care of that. Which makes sense to me, as I'd be pretty pissed at the guy who just tried to invade my brain. There is absolutely no reason not to put at least the 1 point in this. So it's pretty much a given you're going to max out his one active attack skill, but then you have free reign to spread the points around his 3 support skills. Use this table. In addition to helping the Ninja disintegrate anything he gets a crit on, he's the Thief's new best buddy as it's his Weakness infliction that makes Barrage of Knives glorious instead of just really good. Pen and paper. I would fix the stats back to the non *20 values, but, sadly i am stuck owning Knights of pen and paper +1 on pc and only owning Knights of pen and paper 2 on my mobile, so i can not confirm those numbers, if someone can i urge them to og through the article and change the numbers to a x/(x*20) format. Red Icosahedron, spiked rings for trinkets. "Damage +5% per level" - up to +25%. Any battle with a good XP and gold reward is gonna be very difficult to finish in one round. Another one of those "never played a game without him" players. (This might have you wondering, at this point, about how many resistance rolls your average condition gets in the game, and that it might be unfair, and I'll get in to that later.). Which makes it valuable through the game. And this can get to be pretty significant, if you have it on a whole row, or even two rows (with the help of your fur ball or two turns to work with), meaning everyone. Lab Rat human/elf using full crystal balls and a magic staff for the extra spell damage. Once again, like the Thief, but worse. And the Goth is lame. Bunch of dudes can raise their Threat here; the Ninja is the only weirdo who has even thought of going negative with it. Even Stun if the turn order is right, although that part won't apply to the Cleric. The buy it option comes in the form of mushrooms you can find in every shop, and that some monsters drop when slain. Otherwise, it's up to you, but for my money I'd put my points in the other skills. A few suggestions on building a great team.. Login Store Community Support Change language View desktop website . So I'm realizing I might have lied back when I said there were no bad skills. 1. Barbarian. "Slightly better item drops" - Increasing party level when calculating item drops, +1 per table level up to +5. Also less attractive as a 3 point skill because they can resist this, and at level 3 it's only -2 to their roll. Knights of Pen and Paper 2 is a role playing game that takes place in the fictional world of Paperos (yes, it's a spoof of Westeros from Game of Thrones). If only you could get to level 75. Energy is very useful, but killing your enemies faster is still doing the same thing as you mostly use energy to kill them anyway. 20 October 2015 - 12:57:00 UTC (8 years ago) Store Hub PCGW Patches.

I did do one playthrough without him, just once, and at the end I felt hollow inside, like the magic was missing from my life. In theory, great. I'm not sure, but I'm putting it down to the mysterious antipathy the programmers clearly have for this guy. Here is, for once, a concrete reason to care about initiative. One of my favorite things about this skill is that it's, finally, another row-affecting skill, to compliment the Warrior and Mage skills. Now, if you look at the damage, here in this game, you may well be disappointed at first. The HP boost is kinda weird, actually, as when you get to higher levels you'll think your Barbarian just sliced his arteries open and lost most of his blood as he enrages, but really it's just that his max HP went up. But I did, and it's staying. Someone needs to be the Hipster for the Weapon and Armor goodness, and the Cleric is the one who suffers least from 1 point in each Attribute, especially as a Human. This is actually pretty important since you'll be spreading the glory to the whole team.

The front too. 2 - This is an open forum, so technically anything is fair here. Will mark them with 1-5 score as 1 being least useful. But they will sure as Ra's solar bathrobe look cool doing their inefficient thing. Although I just did. Wound, along with burn and poison, always has a value. 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! With the Bookworm, again just following quest to quest, most of them will be complete. But amazingly, with the introduction of the Knight class, Sudden death is now highly likely even aginst bosses and dragons! Join the team. All Reviews: This section is created by Ghost381 and includes various team builds for different types of battles. Knights of Pen & Paper 2 Deluxiest Edition Party Setup. If you just follow the story you'll be moving on to higher level beasties before you fill out each entry. How much XP they get is always front and center, but how much they need to get to the next level is just vaguely represented by a thin yellow line on their character sheet. Which isn't that far. But still, even so, it's nice to see it in action, it's "free", and putting 3 points in it is doable with just about any build. This is that, but for the whole field of battle and completely irresistible. I'm not going to mention the Class attribute boosts, as that's not what you're basing your decision on. Complete Google sign-in to access the Play Store, or do it later. Your trouble is going to be more what skills you can stand to leave un-leveled rather than which ones you want. What with the XP scaling, what it means is that your Exchange Student will consistently be 1 level above everyone else. I will note that your demon is not that scary - looks more like a little fluffy dragon plush someone plopped on the gaming table. The Ninja and Barbarian have got the single targets very much handled.

So you will always want at least one skill point in this, because Conditions happen even if you're not trying, and now and then the enemy will waste an attack. After a -9 Senses resist roll maxed out. A complete waste if the whole row gets stunned and vined, because neither of them stack. Well, welcome to the club. Even low level bosses seem to resist everything you throw at them almost all the time. There are some better group damage skills out there, but this one can be a good compliment to those. So, you've played through the game a few times, you're feeling pretty done and you don't have a strategy guide to write that keeps you coming back (excessively) for more. It also is like the Barbarian's Frenzied Strike, restoring (only) 32 health to the Knight every time he uses it, which means you can focus on just this skill and Bulwark, with just one point in Discipline to get the shared energy/health perk - which, you can probably guess, is what I think is the best way to build this guy. The following is the party set-up I have used up to level 25. To be clear, the shield action does nothing in the moment, no damage reduction. Another good skill for the Hunter! This isn't that great a difference, but later on when the Knight is not naked but has a damage reduction around 40 or 50 with all his souped up gear (which is what you will obviously have him wear if you invest in this skill), this makes more of a difference. The party works by using the warrior and barbarian to soak up most of the damage while single targeting major threats while the Mage and Hunter take out the big groups. And seeing as you'll get hit more than once in almost any battle, this can be pretty handy. With 50 damage reduction, instead of only blocking 25 of a 50 damage hit, he'll block 41 of it. The deal is that 56x7 is close to 104x4 (392 and 412). Well, I'm happy to report, pretty much yes to all of the above. 2 random enemies to start with, then one more every 3 levels. Grappling Hook - good (great, just for me), Ambush (passive) - good, pretty great when fully leveled, Hail of Arrows - great, at least fully leveled up, Discipline (passive) - great (SAKA with the Rocker), Renewing Carapace - good (SAKA as a 1 point skill with Animal Companion), Feral Mauling - good (great if you're a Rocker & SAKA with the "1 point ward" build), Psychosomatics (passive) - SAKA (compared to other passive skills, that is), Sacred Table - until level 10 Solid, levels 10-20 Fine, after level 20 Meh, Black Leather Sofa - Meh (4/5 if you are poor on Diamonds), Kawaii Sofa - Meh (Clutch if going solo Knight as tank), Race Car Track - Fine (Solid before Level 20), Zebra Rug - WITNOGS (Solid if you are easily frustrated by ambushes), Confuser - Fine (Solid if aiming for sudden death), Board Game Collection - Fine (Solid once you have the Rabbit's Paw), Labeled Dresser - Fine (Solid before level 10), Miniature Game - Meh (Fine if you desire a full Bestiary), Go Set - Solid (Clutch if you rely heavily on area damage), Poker Table - Fine (Solid before level 10). And, while we're on that topic, just a little shy of that skill's awesomeness. Granted, it would be a little peculiar of you to bring a Druid with Grappling Vines just so you can do 50% more damage to Beetles. Also, you'll either want a high Senses score or a really low one. I've tried, with Barrage of Knives, and it's never been enough. Another user - will update and re-evaluate the usefulness of furniture and give some information. It's just a question of either/or, and each build is pretty awesome. I prefer the second, as this team is all about offense after all. After that it's Anger Management all the way. 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. In-Game. The damage bonus remains awesome though. Weakness hobbles your fighters, especially the builds focused on Criticals, but makes no difference to the casters. Knights of Pen & Paper 2 is a turn-based, retro style, pixel-art adventure full of danger, intrigue, death, and saving throws! Including Stun, so 1 time out of 7 this is, in fact, the Frostbite skill (although better, 'cause the Stun can't be resisted). Meaning your Mage or Warlock might not quite measure up to the perfect version of this skill, but they'll have another skill, like Lightning or Life Transfer, which really makes for a better player. I don't mean that they will necessarily blow your mind, but it's a very different and very difficult kind of fight. Well, obviously, you can do all these things, and all it takes is the bold step to start and finish this game with just two players. You'll go on an adventure to save the world from an evil villain. Until your next turn that is. Kind of like the Warlock, none of his skills really measure up - and the one that does can't make up for the others. 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. (Note: This skill does not regenerate the Cleric's MP, which is why you're going to have to rely on MP regenerating Trinkets (preferably), or potions, or good old fashioned rest from time to time.). Except of course if your target is stunned. Get the sacred table asap for cheerleader combo. This is rather difficult to asset, dealing 20% more damage with basic attacks for some classes who rely solely on their attack damage and not needing a lot of energy (or have ways to restore it really fast) can be devastating. And that's the Knight, in all his defensive glory. There are other builds here that can be fun to explore, but this is absolutely the build of choice. The Mage and Monk skills are only for their own selves, and there's the Cheerleader Thief when she gets hit, and the Game Room blocking thing for individuals, but they're pretty weak. But not this one. Meaning you'll be looking for the lowest level enemies on the screen and cast this on them, often with a one hit (well, technically 3 hit) kill. And Charms can be, as mentioned, huge. On that, while it's a little disappointing that there are only 3 girl players in this game, that's actually not very realistic. Which won't likely be an issue if that Cleric is at your back, and even if he isn't, one regular 75MP potion gets you back in the fight for a few turns. So this one is just, well, absurd. Good fun. But the unfortunate fact is that you're better off just letting your defense take care of defense and focus on killing things, which really is what the Psion is best at. But, to stay on point, this adds up to 136 Threat at level 24, which is just a hilariously huge number compared to what anyone else is capable of. In the meantime they heal up to 80 HP every turn. "When able, basic attacks expend 4% Energy to deal 4% extra damage per level" - up to 20%. Or something. Unlike the damage reduction, which is huge at level 1, pretty nice at level 8, and hardly noticeable at level 20 and beyond. Ages of men and of Outsiders have ascended and been forgotten, and only the bones of their cities and the Grant any player an extra 56 Threat and 32 Damage Reduction until your next turn - that's what you get. Knights of Pen and Paper 2, called Knights of Pen and Paper II on the Start Screen, is a sequel to the game Knights of Pen and Paper, the second entry in the Of Pen and Paper published by Paradox Interactive. Anger Management is the key here, bringing his, well, just about everything up by massive amounts. But still, despite these minor flaws, hitting the enemy for a max of 392 total damage is nothing to laugh at. Anyway, as far as the general MP suckage almost any Druid build will want from you if you use this skill, you could bring the Cleric to help with that, which means your Druid can focus on damage or incapacitation. ), and we'll see why later. Compared to a Warlock with the higher Mind value and no or light armor, the armored Warlock will have less energy (Mind determines energy levels), but he'll be much tougher - that's the trade off. Any single weapon user is only ever going to be able to inflict 5 conditions at once (the Ninja is really the best at this as just 1 skill point gets him Wound and he doesn't have to be a Lab Rat) and that's all you need to inflict the condition with level 2 Weapon Rack! So this hits a single target for a little less than your average fighter's comparable skill (220% weapon damage at skill level 24), which is the same oomph as the Hunter's hat can muster. Compared to the weapons you'll be crafting this giant weapon will be a let-down, but if you aren't crafting or just like the idea of 3 hands on a weapon, it's there for you. The only trinket they need is Enchanted Cushion for the stun immunity. You could level Grappling Hook to move foes around and, leveled up, cause more damage to individual targets. Go To Big Town to continue quest. So, yeah, if you'd like that +2 War Axe instead of the +1 War Axe (which is a 4 point damage and Threat difference), and better armor, something like 5 levels sooner, then yeah. Put one point in Black Arts for the Wound perk, then start with just the 1 point in Shadow Chain and follow that by maxing out Vanish. "Meh" items are the pretty pointless ones, and largely qualify as such because there is no scaling - like Damage Reduction +2, which is significant for your first 10 levels or so, and pretty meaningless after that - but still it's a bonus. So unless you want a small bonus to Initiative or Critical, just leave the Arcade choice set here. This does have some practical applications, such as providing another victim for Cleave and Lightning, or just getting that back row caster up front so your Barbarian can properly pummel him. It lets you use energy as health and, when that happens, makes you hurt enemies that attack you (for up to 80 damage, which is respectable, if you were foolish enough to max this skill out), and that as many times as you get hit in a turn (which, assuming you can survive it, can get up to 240-320 damage easy). In this case the block is an unqualified positive, since it's free, but the 5 healing is minimally effective even at low levels and unnoticeable at higher levels. Look for Knights of Pen & Paper 2 in the search bar at the top right corner. So, at top level, this will hit all enemies (or all "adjacent" enemies if for some reason you forgot to set up your Board Games in the Game Room) for 56 damage. Isn't that nice? Ah, to gloriously be purged of all your sins, through every combat. And the damage may seem unspectacular at first (44% weapon damage per hit), but maxed out (120%) you'll be doing over triple damage. Or 500 or 250 or 0. The only drawback is the relative monotony of your strategy. All good options. 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. But if you're in a tough fight and the Warrior can't handle any more agro, or an easy fight with a slew of weaklings filling the field, Cleave will serve beautifully. One final note has to do with the sometimes invaluable quality of Criticals, as they are often the only way to inflict Conditions (like the hammer's Stun) on enemies that almost always resist the affliction when they have the chance. For the low and high end ones, you'll find them pretty easily. In particular, Knights of Pen and Paper 2 also features randomization for a dungeon system, classic . Or Gerbil. It makes you a non-target, although group attacks will still get you, but it's just the least productive response to low health. Your basic combat class. Warrior: arguably a better tank than paladin, and a solid damage dealer. Choose an Android Emulator for PC from the list we've given and install it. Just 1 point here though, and you have a backup energy reserve, so that you could do.Although you could put 1 point into this and use life transfer on yourself which basically makes the skill free. One good aspect though is that unlike any other skill but the Hunter's (and Burn from anyone), there is no resistance roll to what you inflict. The better the weapon, the higher the Threat, up to +25. He does have a damage skill, which is a mixed bag, but there's basically one (right) way to play this guy, which is the only reason I ever don't bring him ('cause I have ADD, OCD, and a short attention span and I like some flippin' variety, dangit). No other class can do this. The attack is decent, and at higher levels he'll rarely get dispelled as your Warlock is going to be pretty low Threat. I can't seem to find a number, i find thief, warrior, hunter, mage and cleric to be a great team. First of all, do note that this skill is not affected by the Body attribute. What's nice, and frankly better about this one, is that the secondary perk actually levels up with you, for once. Start with a good tank: A Warrior has amazing regeneration abilities, as well as decent . How is that badass? Now, the best setup possible for a good game and a great boss battle is the Paladin, Cleric, Mage, Ninja, and Warrior (this in perspective of free to play, I also have issues using the Barbarian so I dont personally like it due to the rage effect). So here's where it gets complicated and more fun. Brink of Madness (Passive) - good okay, yeah, also not that good. The game, for the most part, is a parody of the popular tabletop RPGs of the 80s. Or, perhaps, just misspoke. This is those guys, all put together. Pair this with Ambush though and you'll have 126 damage per hit with that 28 stacking condition. This is your high damage single target smashing skill. A (kind of) lame trick you can use, in particular with doppelgangers (since they change to something else on their first turn and then the kill is for whatever it changed into), is to kill as many as you can once you find a room with them in it, then escape the fight. Which, again, means more skill-time for your fighters. See, it's based on your Senses attribute. Basically giving you the chance to be always at full health after fights in the early chapters. I don't know a game where the mage type doesn't have this, and with good reason. This also means you can spare him the energy cost of wearing armor, meaning more Decoys. So, if you love stunning things and you want this skill, probably better to commit all the way and skip Power Lunge. 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. The only skill that really shines is Touch of Blight, and it's almost just like Frostbite, and so you'll be asking yourself "why didn't I just bring the Mage in the first place?" I mean, in so far as he's good at anything. It's why she's so macabre all the time. Initiative is nice, always nice to strike first, but not really clutch in battles. This aptly named skill is what your Knight will use first, every time, in every battle. The answers are: Yes, no, and kind of. So ultimately, this turns out to be another case of "why would I bring this guy instead of the other guy who's better at it?" "Initiative +1 per level" - up to +5. But one lighting strike or fireball and all those wards go away - just saying. And there's no special secret quest, you just have better and better items available to you as you level up.
