Not really IMO. I tossed a Leanstone at them and blew them off the mountain, I thought that would just leave them start in a staggered position but it actually just outright defeats them if your Agility is good. No real regrets not getting it though, there are better options for the two-handed spellblade route, like the Spiraled Blade, Elthara's scythe, or the hammer in Rynquest.

I think after you beat and/or fuck them enough times they just give up and go home - literally. They just stay in their cave home for the rest of the game. From what I can tell the only reason there's a kill option is if you don't want to wait that long, or don't want to risk getting corruption by fucking them.
If you've had children with Zhara the Harpy Wingleader they'll let you past as well.

I could always just cheat and give to me through save editor. I just love weapons the cause storm or lightning damage.
Fire not really impressive especially if your a pyromaniac. But Lightning that only comes from one place. If can conjure that then no one can say "Oh your magic is all smoke and mirrors". It be more like "Shit you summoned lightning from the sky? Ok you the real deal". That might just be me though.

Too many dick girls, too many bitch boys, not enough real men.
Extreme lack of male content for those into males and it's getting a little tiresome at this point. I get the game is mainly aimed at straight males, but there are still gay men and straight women around. I'd like to see more content for them.

Seen this sentiment going around and I think it's true but I'm not that demographic so I'll keep my 2 cents to myself. It is weird there aren't just regular gay guys around.
Yeah can't argue with that. Sadly a lot of the writers aren't really interested in writing big buff guys.
Not really a direct gripe I just don't want to make a new thread; is this game lagging like absolute fuck during combat for anyone else after recent patches?
I'm playing the client version on a laptop, with an i7 (2.3 ghz) and 16 GB RAM, Windows claims no more than 20-30 % of my resources is ever taken up, and as of maybe three updates ago whenever combat starts there's a second or two delay between clicking an icon and shit happening, like I press a spell button, 1 second delay, selector line to pick the target of my spell, click it, 1 second delay, and then it goes off. This is happening on my level 7 valkyrie thief (zero save edits) on both random encounters and boss encounters (which get closer to two second delay than 1), and it's happening right after rebooting the computer or game. It is borderline making the game unplayable because I keep accidentally hitting the wrong target because of the lags.

This!
I've been blaming my PC, but it seems it's not a "me" problem.
Currently playing v.0.6.6, and the input delay is brutal (up to 3 secs).
I am on 0.6.8, most recent, as I said it's been going on for a few patches now, and I likewise was not sure if it was a "me" problem or not.
Another subjective take: I feel like the unique weapon pool is very...I don't want to say shallow, but it's unnecessarily restrictive.
Example A - Bone Seax is "A defensive knife carved from the bone of some gigantic animal inscribed with runes along its hilt." why can't I duel wield this knife with another weapon?
Example B - Skypiecer has THROWN, BLADED, UNIQUE for its traits, can't duel wield it for shit for some reason
I remember seeing Jstar requesting the ability to two-hand a one-hand weapon for benefits which seems useful. If we aren't going to be able to mix and match, there should at least be at least one or two combos they should have that don't involve a shield or passive equipment. Like, Dawnblade & SanGlade, or if weapons/abilities/items are to be nerfed at least give them another ability/stat/unique benefit that works with the role it was intended for.
Quick peeve: Captain's Greatsword - "A thin chain hangs from the hilt, although the charms that should be attached to it appear to have gone missing." is this ever getting completed or did I miss something?
Lureling's Eye - I feel like the description should be rewritten because it's misleading and not in a good way "One of the lureling's trio of beady white eyes, its core as dark as the void between the spheres save for the starry light within, much like an anglerfish's lure. According to Tollus' notes on the abyssal beast, it sheds these to distract enemies like a lizard sheds its tail, but you get the gut feeling there's more to it than that... how are you supposed to put this thing on? Is it really on, or are you just imagining things?" when equipped it gets the generic description in Appearance but if you hit below corruption requirement it pops out of the PCs head. Is it a third eye or a helmet?

I have a similar long-standing issue with tentacle dicks; the TF event and appearance description say you should be able to reshape them at will, even going with no dick at all, or combining them into one, or make them bigger or smaller, but this is never actually used in game, most events seem to think you are multi-dicked and so only one of the tentacles can be used for anything. Either the TF and Appearance screen needs to be changed, or the sex tags needs to be changed. I would vastly prefer the latter for the record, having an option that's just always going to fit and be exactly the perfect size for any encounter would be... so fucking nice.
I've realized that the specific problem is a skill issue on the writers' side for not utilizing it. Then again writing tentacle activities for every scene would be tiring but they aren't being used like how they are described.
Then tentacle should just be removed if it's not going to be actually utilized because none of the writers like it. Change the Effigy verison to just a green dick, and remove the tentacle evolution of demon dick, leaving double-dick the final stage of Incubus Cum. It's the half-arsing of it that's just annoying me. As a swamp goblin once said, Do, or Do Not; there is no Try.
I'm just waiting for the moment we wake up in the Wayfort and find that every impregnable female is present and fighting for the chance to be the (other?) Baroness of the Wayfort, or every unique child we've fathered throwing a celebration for Father's Day.
Since nobody bothered to answer my question here or in the General Bullshit forum, I'll leave out some of my original comment and make this quick.
1. I loved seeing so many dark-skinned/furred* characters/enemies and ran with the headcanon that they were all BIPOC.
2. I eventually started to dread seeing them and hoped the next person was always light-skinned/furred.
3. Much of the writing gives off the impression that the writers were actively engaging in (casual) racism.
3a. See Gwyneth having a "dirty white undercoat" (as opposed to "off-white") and being called "Domestic", which was conveniently replaced with "Homely" on her wiki. She's basically a mammy (racist caricature of African-American women).
4. Even though I managed to make it just past the Dog Days quest and declined Hethia's offer (SPOILER:she turns on you, right? ), playing this game feels ick, so I'm just gonna quit. Thanks for making it. Sucks that y'all made it racist.

agreed. As a black woman I also say what the fuck is that post because it makes no sense and sounds like just being offended to be offended.
Like go away newbie if you're just gonna spout shit.
I will say though that one of my big complaints with the way races are written is how uniform they are. If there were real world analogues to these races it absolutely would be racist like for example the kitsune. Almost all of the characters are stereotypical of their race and that sucks.
There isn't anywhere near as clear a real world analogue for the other races as them though. Kinda surprised you wouldn't lead with them.

I call it lazy and in the kitsunes case, uncomfortably racist writing.
You don't get to try to call their whole xenophobic shtick justifiable when they have constant contact with other cultures and live a days walk from another races capital.

Who's justifying it? I thought that was the point? They are xenophobic. They colloquially refer to the locals as barbarians for chrissake. They're a group of holier than thou, "cultured" colonizers. The worst they get up to is rape, that's pretty mundane in this game. Compared to real world analogues, they're pretty tame.
I like Fantasy racism; it gives the world depth. I remember back in the day some ppl would complain about Skyrim having casual racism but that's gold because everyone in Skyrim was racist to the point where it had race fetishists. The lusty Argonian is the most memorable meme next to "You're finally awake?"
