1. You definitely want the camera back.
2. Put 1 point into Persuasion, and you can make Lukan just leave, getting Fate Pont. Then kill them, an you get another Fate Point.
3. After getting Hand Cannon in Tarant, move to Ashbury. Take the dog (you should get the dog right after getting into the town, before he get killed). Go to the cemetery. Run circles letting the dog to kill zombies, rising you levels.
4. I'd take Mad Doctor bio for halfling-sharpshooter, Escaped Lunatic for human. Raised by Monks for beginners
At one point I actually thought you had a real-life crying baby there in the background as you were recording, then I realized it's just your foes coming to terms with the reality of facing superior firepower. Much appreciated.
uhhh Yes, That is exactly what it was 😅
I finally got a computer. I could be playing some graphically amazing game with it for the maiden voyage. But I’ll be playing Arcanum. 🤘 great stuff man
Thanks and congrats on the computer.
Lol I just got a computer as well and even though I've already played this game when it came out. Here I am again! This and fallout are the reason, for me at least, that computer gaming is the best!
Ive played this game a ton , but this is next level, I love this, thank you!!
Thanks and glad you liked the content.
@@jessesgamereviewstipsandst5517 Mate I love this!!Thanks heaps
A bit late but you can pickpocket ristezze key in shrouded hills with just one pickpocket skill level or scum save/reload after failing . This key will break the games economy for you - you can take his gold every 2-3 days resulting in 800-2500 gold every visit to shrouded hills . Now no need to sell or look for gold . Something I do every play through after launch , I can’t be bothered looking for gold every play through . 🍻
Yeah game breaker, also you can still have decent pickpocket chance with no skills. Also you don't have to wait 2-3 days, you just have your screen look away rest 1 day and look back at his chest again to loot his gold.
Wow that's a really quick start :) great vid!
3 months ago Timothy Cain broke down how crits work with called shots.
I've been updating the wiki with his breakdown of the various code in the game.
"The called shot To Hit ("TH") penalties for head, arms and legs are -50, -30 and -30, respectively. However you receive a Critical Chance bonus proportional to the To Hit penalty, this makes called shots with weapons featuring To Hit bonuses extremely powerful. Firearms can have these penalties reduced by 1/3rd with expert training, and on a weapon with To Hit bonuses like the Looking Glass Rifle the penalty of headshots can be reduced to a mere -14 while arms and legs actually receive a +10 To Hit and +30 Critical Chance."
Halfling: 5%
Fated Rings: 10%
Mannox Finger: 2%
Called Head Shot: 30%
Sleeping Enemy: 30%
Master Prowling: "Much better backstab crit chance."
Enemy Knocked Prone, Stunned, Paralyzed: Increased crit chance.
I played and finished this game so many times, and yet I am learning more still. Thank you!
There is always something new to learn from this game to be implemented in the next play through. Hope you give the gunslinger build a try in your next play through.
@@jessesgamereviewstipsandst5517 I most certainly will. I usually use my point to still the revolver from the gunshop owner in Tarant. I will try stealing the hand cannon next.
edit: the best take away - using stat magic for the boost. I usually don't mix tech and magic. this i gotta try.
Thanks for this video! Im a new player and that droch warbringer really made my gunslinger build a bad ass
glad at least one thing was found useful
Sometimes you get some tech parts near when you start game. It's hidden in factory box a bit to the right (hard to spot, it is obscured by grass). Whats in the box depend on char name, background etc.
Good suggestion, I was able to find a capacitor in there for early game charge rings, which is great because you cant buy them in shrouded hills.
I never really had much trouble with being a gunfighter in general...but I also don't go straight for it like that. I got no problems spending a solid 40 to 50 hours on a single playthrough. This is one of the few games I can say that for.
Just wanted to say, if for whatever reason you don’t want to be someone who was raised by orcs, picking “bandit” as a background isn’t bad. It has a few drawbacks (you will be a couple levels behind w lower perception and you’ll need to scrounge up a bit more cash) but it also gives you a quality revolver to start with which is better than the one doc gives you and a boost to the firearm skill. The revolver gives you a bit more wiggle room at the beginning and might be better for new players. Great guide tho man thanks.
great idea especially if the player wants to do enough exploring before venturing to Tarant or if player doesn't want to use stealing to take the Magnum gun.
AWE-SOME DUDE, thank you very much! 👏👏👏
Your welcome. Also let me know if there are other builds or content of that you would like to see.
You the MVP man
This used to be my go to gunslinger build as well. Only thing I added was getting the teleport staff first with the trap detector thing, then get the warbringer stuff, and then play the game.
I haven't looked into teleport staff and would need to explore that option the next time I play this game
лучшее руководство для стрелка 👌
These are amazing, I'm going to share it around with my friends
Do you plan to do any guides with Half-orcs or Half-ogres?
Glad you enjoyed them. I did do a melee backstab build guide using a half-orc and utilizing the strongest axe (pyrotechnic axe) which can be created around level 9 in Tarrant, If interested here is the build: ua-cam.com/video/NNjOcBLE3p8/v-deo.html
@@jessesgamereviewstipsandst5517 Perfect :D
This game is so great
playing the AME mod so some of these things are balanced ( like the handcannon not being on that man) still following the guide though for the good setups
two questions, 1) Isn't getting the spell for more quickness a short term solution? As you get further in tech, won't spells fail constantly when cast on you? So later on you have a wasted point, right? or does it keep working? 2) Have you tried the Equilibrium rebalance patch? Guns are much stronger so they can compete with half ogre melee damage, but the enemies are harder too, do you think you would still be able to pull this off in that mod? I have not played the game in like 15 years but I used to be pretty good at it, I remember the hand cannon trick but I didn't remember all this, thanks. However, it does kind of ruin the game so I think Ill just stick with your rush to Doc's training and the hand cannon.
1. yes it is short term solution mainly used to power through early game. the spell that applies the speed still works with the same bonus as long as your tech aptitude isn't maxed, though it may fail cast a few times, but once successful applies the same effect.
2. I haven't tried the patch and it sounds interesting enough especially if it gives tech a easier start. Since I am not sure what is changed in the patch I cannot weigh in how effective this guide would be.
@@jessesgamereviewstipsandst5517 It's been ages since I played Arcanum, I tested and the Earth, Air, Fire, Water buffs are fully workable on a full tech guy (was still working at 70 tech no fails) which I think is an oversight but oh well, it works so its def worth getting the agil (and str imo) buff for every tech char. Never knew that, dummy me read the manual in 2001 and never thought to test buff spells on a tech guy.
I'm in the process of making my own mod which will buff guns (especially early, you can have a 20 str HUMAN with melee expert by level 5 and be doing 22-27 high speed with a quality sword) whereas the avg lvl 5 gunslinger would be doing 3-12 with a Fine/Quality revolver (unless you use the tactice described here) even then, IMO 22-27 no ammo and more hp beats 5-35 less hp, and that's with a much higher tier weapon. Not balanced. I vividly recall 20 years ago being excited for a new gun and then heaving a sigh ever time I saw the stats. The mod will also buff all the enemies as they are way too weak, more hp, more damage more action points, more willpower. Game should be more balanced between the builds and harder overall when I am done. Equilibrium has nice ideas but it changes a lot of spells, disables a lot of things and adds in some enemies that are over the top, so i opted to make my own. Learning to mod this game is actually brutal vs other games I've modded but ONCE you understand (after hours of swearing face palming and hair pulling) it's quick and simple.
:) does Harm with maxed out magick and full black necromancy outperform this?
Max Harm (40 dmg) OP in that you can cast and hit targets and not enter combat mode until enemies are attacking you where guns starts combat mode as soon as you fire your first attack.
Harm doesn't miss, gun fire can still miss unless your master fire arm and max technology.
Harms use mana and so constantly stocking this can be annoying.
Guns uses bullets and the bullets can weigh alot but only takes 2 slot. Guns also have different STR requirements. Guns requires int and gun expertise which can be worked around using tech manuals and potion of intellect.
At the end of the day Harm is easier to achieve earlier in the game and does a higher consistent damage.
Guns seems much cooler so it comes down to preference lol hope that helps.
Harm is truly OP just as playing as mage. But really you should play whatever you feel like, take your time and enjoy the game :)
As an aside - could you check out the Master of all Skills build? (Google, youtube won't allow me to link directly). I'd love some improvement suggestions.
Its pretty thorough, one uncertainty is the actually number of skills points require to get mastery for every skill. I've always assumed 20 skill points for mastery but in the guide on section of the walkthrough mentions 15 skill points allows you to gain mastery.
Did you also have exp by death instead of by hit turn on in the unofficial patch?
@@jessesgamereviewstipsandst5517 Don't think so. Never really messed with the unofficial patch settings beyond installing it. Even with all the followers, the amount of quests you complete in a MoA playthrough has you at level 50 well before Vendigroth.
Oh yeah - and the idea that you can cast Agility of Fire and get your Throwing \ Bows to 5\4 right away (after recruiting Jeyna) is pretty good. I should incorporate that.
not sure if it would be consider cheating but with the unofficial patch each character point usage path can be made manual instead of automatic so essentially any character will be able to provide you the tech items you'll need.
@@jessesgamereviewstipsandst5517 At that point, why not just console spawn them in?
Good guide, but one has to think why do you need to do all of this for a weapon that seems to be weaker than base pyro axe and doesnt scale with str?
There is no doubt melee scales better in terms of weapon and even damage in Arcanum, especially with backstab. It is just fun to try new builds for repeat play throughs and if one wanted to try guns this route providws you with a huge start
@@jessesgamereviewstipsandst5517 Yes i understand that, My point is that this weapon isn't the best as slow fire arms are outclassed by melee.
Fast attacking ones on the other hand are amazing, mechanized gun shoots at 1AP with apprentice training and requires only 10 str to use effectively(and there is an different variant thats even better but requires 12 str and community patch)
I guess it depends on play style. The fast shooting guns has very volatile damage and uses bullets too fast, and reminds me of mages where ill have to constantly stock up mana pots, where in this cast constantly have to stock up bullets.
the war bringer deals consistent high damage output per a shot with less volatile damage and I would argue deals more damage even per ap cost.
But again depends on preferred playstyle and preferences for the trade offs
Why sell camera, when it's needed to give it Hieronymous Maxim in Caladon?
Also, i stopped playing a gunman even after completing master gunman quest in Asbery because when i use Looking Glass Rifle and i have 120-130% chance to hit and enemy dodges my shot, i just cringe so hard.
Camera is unique in that as all items gets reset at a vender the camera will always be there. It can stolen back or rebought at a later date for that quest.
try the drochs warbringer gun at max dex, with the haste spell and missing a few shots will go unnoticed as your given so many shots per turn.
@@jessesgamereviewstipsandst5517 Thanks, both for hint for shooting and camera's secret stat :)
I don't understand why it is lagging in my pc? I have a 3060 graphic card. Need help plz
I bet it is not because of graphics card or power of pc, try checking compatibility mode with windows xp and patching for later versions, depends where you got your copy from (I am playing on a old pc from 2006 with native windows xp and it runs perfectly) :)
Man, I never thought about getting my money back from Doc Roberts.
I'd actually suggest stealing the Fine Revolver from the gun shop owner in Tarant - the improved accuracy is more important at low level.
Grenadier OP Build?
- I just got this game on steam, is it possible to make a build to get through the game without killing anyone, at all. with the exception of necessary boss guys?
- my first run of Oblivion, i just went pure speed thief. when rarely had to kill, i just used two daggers and circled fast enough that i could always strike the mobs and armored npc's in their backs. its one of the ways I judge games like this. that you can get through without killing anyone (tutorial doesn't count to me) at all, that's top score. If you can kill everyone in the game, no matter if its children or a npc that is the focus of the main quest. I do understand why they make the main quest line giver invincible though.
I haven't tried but know that if you go into persuasiveness you can get through most if not all of the game with out killing anyone. Also you can kill certain npc without having it marked on your stats by dropping weapons/gear that poisens user, and npc would pickup and eventually die from the poisen.
Slower leveling progression, and harder to get through some areas without clearing the enemies but not impossible.
in Arcanum you can kill all NPC, though most won't make the game break some will. Most will have a note or diary that would allow you to continue the main quest
20 charisma and maxed persuasion, plus invisibility spell and some mass control, like fear will do the 99% of things done perfectly fine, friends with animals spell and stun will help at the beginning till you get to invisibility
when i pick pocketed him he only had a quality revolver
Did you check his equiped gear vs his inventory? I made the video using the Unofficial patch which fixes many bugs and so if your still not seeing it, it maybe because of different versions. 2nd best gun to steal would probably be a looking glass rifle from gun master in Ashbury.
@@jessesgamereviewstipsandst5517 thanks your have a new subscriber
@@jessesgamereviewstipsandst5517 The guy in the gun shop in Tarrant has an excellent pistol, very rapid fire and long range, IMO it's better than the hand cannon or at least just as good!
Yes really good but dont forget the lockpicks at the beginning or you are fucked
Lockpicks? You can buy them or get them in wolf cave south east of shrouded hills
I would not name it a "build" to just push the whole set up to quickly develop one combat skill, then utilize flaws in mechanics and knowledge of end game marks on a map to get the end game final gun and that's it, it is not a build, it is easy mode focused on fighting for someone who played the game 100 times. 2 charisma will also not allow to do interesting questing and such approach skips the whole idea and mechanics of schematics in the game. The proper way is to set up skills and parameters for a long run without sacrificing quests, with stage by stage development from first revolver to fine revolver to hand cannon to some medium weapon of choice like blade thrower and keep warbringer till its natural appearance at the end of the game. But hell yeah, the guns playing style is the most difficult and slow one but it leaves free points to invest a bit in magic to take haste and simplify things
I find optimizing builds the purpose of any builds of the video content is goal of the video, whether someone chosen to a different character or weapon choice is totally option. With any online build your more then welcome to not follow it and only take what you like, and I would highly encourage that approach.
You lower yourself a lot of charisma, the build is nice but what will you run with 1 companion until the end of the game? a little weak
its a video for a gun build since most gun build takes along time to snow ball and this build speeds it up. I prefer solo play over group due to getting all kills meaning I will be getting exp because group kills don't yield exp.
If a person prefers group play just go melee group and get everyone Pyro techno axes at start of game when you make it to tarant, since recipe in the chest in tarant is avaliable and the 4 dwarf ore already available in warehouse. Strong dps through end game.
@@jessesgamereviewstipsandst5517 Thank you for your answer.
The more companions you have, the less exp you get for killing mobs?
Can you tell me how to play with a bad character without "pact with a demon"? I tried to play this way a few times but always the character goes in the right direction by doing regular tasks in Tarant or others towns that have no choice "that bad option" which gives you points for bad character.
How can this be solved? Do you have any tips? It occurred to me not to do these tasks, but in my opinion it is a waste of a huge amount of exp
@@jok3r816 In the vanilla game... EXP is based on HITS on the enemy, not kills, so if your NPCs are landing hundreds of hits they'll get a crapload of EXP. If you kill the enemy with a super powerful shot you get relatively little EXP.
I installed the unofficial Arcanum patch which fixes this so you apparently get full EXP for kills.
for bad playthrough (which is not easy with all good questing around) there are a couple of things to keep in mind
1. always choose bad ending where possible
2. try to find and kill all npcs with good alignment which are not useful for quests anymore and don't trigger the whole city on you
3. correct alignment with magical things, like hexed amulets, helms and weapons, there are some which put down your alignment. You can also break a game a bit by going striaght to the pirate and getting his quest for hexed uber sword which puts your aligment with almost any hit
4. when you finished your business in tarant, there will be a point to motivate orcs on the factory for a revolt, that will be ab evil action :)
can you murder this kindergarden in the background?
holy shit i was trying to followe the build, now i worry that you make meatpies from children xd
no way to avoid it,, side effects of creating content and having kids :)
I recommend all of you to try fixed version, where all of these abuses are removed - it is more interesting. For example, no more addintional speed for techs (only for mages), and only +1 for neutral. Potion for intell just do nothing for tech and only +1 for neutral and so on. You can't steal hand-cannon and more balancing fixes
