![]() What more do you want? FighterĮder, your companion fighter and one of the coolest guys I know.Īgain, exactly what you'd expect. He can hold his own in battle, he can cast nature based area of effect spells with decent damage and if he's in a bind he can transform into animal form, getting a nice attribute boost. If this is your thing, you'll be glad to know that the druid is a pretty capable class in Pillars of Eternity. The druid is exactly what you'd expect, shape-shifting and all. ![]() *Rawr!* You can be a bear, a boar, a.cat, a.stag?.or a wolf! They are the jack-of-all-trades who can excel in any role you give them. "Do my bidding you worthless troll!" What's more, they can even do well in both close quarter combat or ranged. Invading the minds of their opponents, ciphers can weaken them, deal raw damage or even completely take control. To top it off, their spells are some of the most formidable in the game. Ciphers excel in both roles! With their magic enhanced weapon attacks they can rival barbarians with damage capability, while fueling what feels like an infinite amount of spell casting capability. Doesn't sound too impressive on its own, but there is a reason why the cipher is a favorite of many and considered an uber-class.

Let's clear up some of this with a nice comparison.Ī bard was always this big support character who would sing a song or two in battle to raise the morale of his companions or to demoralize foes. Except he works more like a bard should, but isn't as much of a bard as.well, the bard. The chanter, actually works exactly like a bard from the older western RPGs. Yikes! ChanterĬreepy looking, but one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet! Not as scary, true, but if you thought a giant lumbering brute with a large axe was fierce - imagine him with a college degree. So instead, we may get something like, "Being a barbarian, I am quite fond of inflicting dents in craniums." With Pillars of Eternity's revamped character creation approach, intellect can actually help the barbarian's abilities, making them more crowd based. ![]() That's what you'd expect from typical barbarians, what with draining intellect to the limit in order to boost their damage dealing abilities.
