Story mode is b.s.

[Bzombo]

Story mode is not a lower difficulty at all. And all you "git gud" morons, it's not a FPS.

[Btad]

think outside the box. stop approaching every fight the same. if you know a fight is coming sneak up on them, throw them off ♥♥♥♥. throw them into pits. aka... get gud

this has to be a troll right? no way are people struggling on story mode...

there are countless examples of very difficult fights even on storymode in this very thread, especially when you're lower level. Maybe you are the troll?

Git Gud does not apply here anyhow. The proper way is something like: Git Informed

[Quineloe]

yes, git gud doesn't apply in story mode. Thanks for realizing.

[Zoid13]

if you have absolutely zero knowledge on how to build a decent character or how to setup 'advantage' in battles i can see somethings being "hard" for people even on story mode....

if you do have that tiny amount of character building and combat 'advantage' knowledge tactician is a joke. fun but a joke. needs to be at least 3x harder lol

[Stumpy]

As some one was new to dnd and turn based games and also never played the ea. I can tell you the game even on the easiest mode can be challenging but after a while it gets easier .

It does not apply to the game in general, it is all knowledge based.

Idk this game is only hard in act 1 and basicly lvl 1-3. At lvl4 if you do the right spec/spells. At lvl 5 n above it really starts to get easy. Cuz double attacks for my melees.
YOu will start having a easyer time.
Rule of thumb if you a noob, just max out their combat stats.
Strength for warr/barb, dex for who has dex, etc.
The moment you start missing less is the moment this game just gets ez. Its only hard cuz you miss.

Like with most rpgs ive played. If you check their characters, the bigguest issue is bad stats.
I used to always ask OP for their build and char lvl, and this is the main cause 90% of the time.

Skill is the ability to perform (measured against the available resources of course), knowledge is the available information base (one of the resources).

Weird is to mix the two. That some kind of copium?

[Deylendor]

There is no story "mode".

....Invest 15 minutes and learn your skills and spells. Then actually use them with some thought, give half a care to positioning and planning. This game is honestly pretty easy as long as you don't just run up and try to beat everything to death with your bare hands.

But they even give you perfectly good default stats for each class, you need to go out of your way to mess up a character!

I found the game to be balanced when it comes to difficulty however, i can't grasp and accept the fact that some enemies straight up cheat.
Like when you fight a certain githyanki group in act 1, the warrior with the big sword (trying to not spoil) uses like 6-7 turns. Me and my frieds counted them she does 3 attacks then uses the refresh turns skills (i forgot the name of the skill) and uses 2 up to 3 more attacks.
One time we were so unlucky she wiped the entire party in one turn. No matter how skilled we were or good, in that save she simply rolled more initiative and she one shotted 2 of my party then teleported one shotted my character then used the skill to have more turns and one shotted my friend. If that's not cheating i don't know what it is.
