I’m coming up on the ending of poe1 (absolutely phenomenal I’m still trying to process it), and I maybe got a little over excited and started dabbling in deadfire’s character creator.

I’m going to continue as a ranger, and I’ve decided not to multi class as it looks hard and nothing really calls to me.

I looked into the subclasses and I’m really tempted to do stalker. I like the idea that the events of poe1 traumatized me and Torak so much we now get separation anxiety. The problem is I mainly used a hunting bow (secondary rapier) and Torak is a wolf, so I feel like we’re just setting ourselves up for endless grief. Perhaps I could set my companions to fight on the frontlines though and have Torak standing by in case an enemy slips through and attacks me. Or I could start using the rapier more often so we can fight side by side easier.

The other one I’m eyeing is ghost heart which is much better for gameplay from what I understand. Maybe the destruction of Caed Nua killed Torak and Berath refused to revive him because I didn’t commit to him. But honestly the thought of it breaks my heart; I don’t know if can do it. I’ve grown used to the constant presence of my companion, and it would suck if he only appeared during combat.

I played all of poe1 on easy mode and I plan to do the same for 2. I’m also going real time with pause mode. With all that being said, which would you recommend?

Hey everyone, I'm currently playing on Path of the Damned. I'm about to move on to Act 3, and the game is asking if I want to enable enemy level scaling.

My question is: do bosses scale up too? Because the Adra Dragon at Od Nua was an absolute nightmare to beat with its 120 deflection...if yes there is a way to beat ennemi with so much resistance? What spell to use?
