I am sorely disappointed in the last fight in Ygern's memory. There is no room for counter strategy on the players part what-so-ever. I play many story based and strategy RPG's and this one makes a decent attempt at that only to bombard you at the end with an immpossible fight that reminds me why I can't fathom the enjoyment of shooter mentality. The only option to end this game is to show up with an outrageous amount of skill power in which it would require eons to accumalate. By the time you learn that the game ends with an overpowering fight scene that requires no thinking, you are locked in Ygern's memory with no possible retreat or ability to regroup unless you go to an earlier save. Then you get to refight your way back to an unrewarding mass attack. A terrible ending to an otherwise enjoyable game. I look forward to Flames Of Vengeance but like Ego Draconis I do not intend to finish the last scene if I am forced to enter a mindless battle that completely destroys the effort it took to get there.

There are strategies that help in the final battle (which is suppose to be challenging).

I need help with a battle (Spoilers) Ygerna's memory

The add-on apparently has a 'good' ending, so you don't have to worry about it destroying the effort it will take to get there.

Hi My savegame is here:

I found the end pretty challenging.

Hello everyone, I still remember many of you from Divine Divinity and Beyond Divinity. I'm the Grimm who put together the Beyond Divinity walkthrough quite a while back. I finished the game today and really enjoyed most of it. My only criticisms are that the moving platform problems are incredibly frustrating and boring, please don't do that again also, many of the quests are too convoluted and vague. From posts that I read I expected the final battle to be very hard... it turned out to be incredibaly easy and I only required 1 health potion in the entire Hall Of Echoes, within about 5 seconds everyone but me and Zandalor was dead. The key for me was how I used the charm and enchantment slots on the equipment (go very heavy on "Retribution Aura" "Damage Aura" and "Healing Aura". So, on to the questions:

Character = Ranger

Difficulty = Easy (first time through)

Level = 35

Stats = Vitality 42
Spirit 18
Strength 44
Dexterity 56
Intelligence 41

Skills = ** Still had 4 unused skill pts. and 6 unused Dragon skill pts. at end of game
Summon Mastery 1
Blind 3
Summon Demon 5
Mana Efficiency 2
Destruction 1
Firewall 12
Regeneration 4 (+1 from equipment)
Reflect 7
Poison Arrow 3
Ranger Strength (+1 from equipment - never used)
Potion Efficiency 1
Ranger Stealth 2
Splitting arrow 2 (waste of skill points)
Evade 1
Explosive Arrow 12
Way of the Ranger 1 (never used)
Mindread 2
Wisdom 1 (+2 from equipment)
Lockpick 5
Encumbrance 4
All 5 weapon expertises 1
Dragon Firebreath 5 (Rarely used)
Dragon Burst 3 (+2 from equipment)
Dragon Fire Sphere 4 (+1 from equipment)
Dragon Summon Friend 5
Dragon Polymorph 0 (never found a use for it)
Dragon Dragon Shield 1 (never used it)
Dragon Dragon Spirit 5

Armor = ** I studied the armor sets and they are not very good. They beef up your
character's primary skills but leaves you vulnerable in the other disciplines.
Necklace = Hermit's Talisman of the North of Eternal Burning
Ring #1 = (Legendary) Necromancer's Plain Ring of Eternal Burning
Ring #2 = (Legendary) Infused Delicate Pewter Ring of the Warrior God
Belt = (Heroic) Conjurer's Oil-Tanned Leather Belt of Aleroth
Helm = (Unique) Paladin's Elite Battle Helmet of Vengeance
Cuirass = Paladin's Ulthring's Cuirass of the Guardian
Gauntlets = (Unique) Hero's Light Army Gauntlet of the Devote (From Hall of Echoes)
Leggings = (Legendary) Diviner's Heavy Rogue Leggings of Vengeance
Bangle = (Magical) Monk's Polished Bangle of Aleroth
Earings = (Heroic) Sorceror's Fuschia Droplet Earings of Eternal Burning
Dragon Armor = Full Crystal set except for the Plate Mail Cuirass

Weapons = Bow = Archmage's Bow of Tiberius of Doom (only weapon I used)

Thanks to Larian for another great game.

That explains a lot why the second play-through for me was waaaay easier. Final battle was practically nothing, and didn't last long!

I usually pick "Retribution Aura" (as high as possible through out the game-- on end-game, I had a lot of 30% retribution!) for my enchantments-- do they stack? Seems to for me! Love retribution!

~~CierraShore
p.s.
Retribution Aura is a definite keeper... and high level for summon demon & summon mastery, along w/ building a great creature. I'd say that's what made my mostly melee character smokin' at the end!

CierraShore:

The Auras do seem to stack. For Retribution Aura I have 1 @ 35% and 3 @ 41%. For Dmg Aura I have 1 @ 30 Dmg, 2 @ 42 Dmg, 1 @ 48 Dmg, and 2 at 54 Dmg. For Heal Aura I have 2 @ 0.225 per sec.
In the Hall Of Echoes battles with Charon, Marius, Sassan, Amdusias, Liaken, Razakel, Lady Kara, Lord John, and Ba'al my health bar never even moved.

A 2nd time through will be to concentrate even more on those Auras. Just don't know if I can put up with the moving platforms again though...

Grim,

Good info. I hear you with the moving platforms. They are VERY annoying! But, they do sorta get easy w/ time... and difficulty level set to "easy"?

I think my next go-around I'll trying a really different character build, even though I tend towards warrior-types. I've tried playing 3 other games after finishing EG, one of them being giving Beyond Divinity another chance.... but really, I want to fly and breathe fire on everything. And where's the 'ice lung' that dragons are supposed to have and why wasn't it employed? I think that would help.

Anyway... maybe a ranger/mage build this time. We'll see.

Thanks for confirming the 'stacks'.

I so love this game. I watched "Avatar" the other day on hi-definition.... it was okay, but I actually liked playing Ego Draconis better than watching that movie!! Now, maybe Larian could get the rights to make a game from Avatar.... new mount & flight fighting.... oh the possibilities!

Anyway, totally going off topic.

Ya'll have a good night/day.

~~CierraShore

That would be great

Basic idea for me was, being a glass canon, so good magic defs, and ranged as good as possible too, but seems like ranged damage was rather low so didn't bother too much. Melee not too bad either for the charges, but usually shouldn't be hitting me. For the rest everything focused on damage dealing.

Also you can see I have lotsa charm slots left. That was because by the time I realised I was doing the end-game, I just went for it, without boosting every tiny bit I could.

Just finished the game. It was (and still is) a great game to play, although there are some downs too. For example i couldn't find the difficulty setting and when i DID found it, i finished the game... The 3 major sets are great too, only if you are planning to make a ranger, a mage or a warrior. I was able to wear all 3 of them but only after I had some charms put into my equipment. But all this was compensated with one thing if you ask me, and that is the battle tower! It was a great idea do put something like that in a game, because i hated it when i could find the right gems, enchantments or ingredients for the things i needed. But enough of this chatter back to the question. The stats in green are with equipment on.

I finished last nite. Great fun. Bravo to the developers! I thought EGO DRACONIS was one of the best games I've played, the best since Bioshock, I'd say. I've been playing video games for a long time and play only on PC. Just to give you the context, I started playing when Space Invaders and Asteroids were new in arcades. I'm in NY now. 59 years old. I used to play mostly FPS, starting with the original Unreal Tournament, which was a life changing experience. :o) Now that I'm an old fart, I can't take the constant tension. I'm less twitchy and have come to enjoy RPGs much more. I played Dragon Age, Fallout 3, Mass Effect, Guild Wars. But I've developed a great fondness for "central European" single player RPGs: started with Stalker, the Gothic series and Risen, Witcher, King's Bounty, Drakensang (which was great), and now EGO DRACONIS.

I'd just say this: the graphics are beautiful. You don't have to upgrade the engine on my behalf. More resolution just puts more strain on the system and hits the FPS. Another big feature of the game, I thought, was the maneuverability of the avatar - walk/run, jump, front and back flip, roll left/right. That added a great deal of fun. I loved to do a front flip off a cliff and then morph into dragon form and fly off. Mixing ground combat and aerial combat also worked splendidly.

I played on normal as a mage/archer. Fireball, exploding arrows, and summon undead. If I get a chance, I'll post my stats. I'm not that interested in tough boss fights. What's fun for me is to achieve god-like status and just romp.

So I wanted to thank the developers for a great game. After reading the reviews, I grabbed it off Impulse here in the US. I'm looking forward to FOV.

Thanks for the kind words, Johnny, and welcome to the forum!
