Chapter 11 Heart of Savagery
“First of all, this expansion pack contains complete professional promotion knowledge. Any professional skills belonging to barbarians can be slowly mastered with the help of the panel.”
< br>"That is to say, from now on, my career level promotion can be completely achieved by myself. I don't need to find or consult other barbarian masters."
I can complete the promotion just by myself. This is different from other people in this world.
In this world, the improvement of the combat effectiveness of ordinary melee professionals is very step-by-step. To determine a person's professional level, you only need to see what level of skills he can master.
Take a barbarian as an example. As long as you master the skills of rage and unarmored defense, you can be called a level one barbarian. If you master the skills of danger perception and reckless attack, you can be called a level two barbarian. After choosing the original path and being successfully promoted, you can become a barbarian. Can be called a third-level barbarian.
The determination of level four barbarians is different from the above. During this period, you can choose to exercise in different directions to enhance your abilities.
You can improve your basic attributes by tempering your body, and you can also gain additional expertise by exercising your skills.
As long as you feel that you have made a big breakthrough in either of these two parties (any attribute value has been improved by two points or a certain feat has been fully acquired), you can call yourself a fourth-level barbarian. people.
Special promotions like this will only be determined in this way at levels 4, 8, 12, 16 and 19 respectively.
The reason for this is that in the process of reaching these levels, your body has been tempered by time, and whether it is attributes, skills or expertise, it is possible to achieve breakthroughs in the long-term adventure process.
Of course, there are no absolutes in the world, and some people may break the promotion order of professional levels and acquire certain expertise in advance, but this is already the most reasonable way to divide levels.
In addition to the level promotions during these special periods, every other level promotion has [specialized] and [unique] professional skills.
Only by mastering those skills of your own profession can you continue to move forward along the road and obtain promotions. While you master these skills of your own profession, you may not have time to develop additional expertise.
However, although additional expertise is difficult to obtain, attributes can be improved as the adventure progresses.
Life and death can best stimulate people's potential, so most level four barbarians simply improve their attributes and then continue to invest in the development of their own skills.
This feature can also be brought to other professions. After all, there is no such convenient and fast thing as experience value in this world. If there is really such a thing, it can only be the combat experience you have experienced personally.
“Secondly, the panel has a special currency whose nature is very similar to the incentive points in Baldur’s Gate 3. I will call it incentive points.”
“This kind of The rule for issuing things is that when you complete certain achievements or feats, the panel will automatically issue it to you. "
Things displayed on the panel are gold stars and have additional comments.
"I now have three motivation points, namely [Survival in the wilderness for five years], [I am worth a thousand gold] and [When hell comes, run fast]."
"The use of motivation points seems to be particularly wide-ranging , the functions I have summarized so far are: "
1: Spend an incentive point to select a specialty or a professional skill of this profession from the system.
2: Spend an incentive point to improve any of your attributes.
3: Spend an incentive point to enchant one of your own equipment or props by +1 to become a magic equipment. The enchantment effect is currently unknown.
"I have only discovered these functions so far. There may be more uses that I have not discovered, but these three are powerful enough."
"I said before that this world does not have the convenience of experience points. But for me, incentive points are equivalent to experience points!”
“In order to obtain incentive points, I must try various adventures and achieve some extraordinary achievements. Only then can I become stronger as quickly as possible.”
“This invasion of Avernus is an opportunity. Just escaping from it will gain you an incentive point.”
"Well, I'd better not try to commit suicide like this. Let's take it slow depending on the situation."
"Now let's think about how to distribute these incentive points."
Nohill thought for a while, and then continued to think. "Attributes can be slowly acquired through exercise. After all, I am only 14 years old now and there is still a lot of room for development. It feels a bit disadvantageous to enchant equipment. After all, I don't know what the effect will be."
The best way to use it is to gain additional expertise and unique class skills.
The promotion of ordinary professionals is very long, but this is not the case for Nohir.
Although the attribute panel had never appeared before he fully awakened his memory, the basic abilities it provided allowed Nohill to complete the barbarian skill training as if by instinct.
However, after his second level, due to the delay in choosing the original path, which was the most fundamental direction of development, Nohill's progress seemed to slow down.
“Now I have a little taste of the innate ability of Red Flame Slash, which means that I am not far away from being promoted to level 3 barbarian. As long as I choose a direction, I should be able to be promoted quickly.”< br>
Nohir looked at the flame in his hand, which was a gift brought to him by his hell bloodline. Being able to do this means that he has met the requirements for promotion.
"Panel, view barbarian path options."
Ding, the game expansion pack has added new career branch options. Based on your current race, background and attributes, you meet the development and advancement conditions for four of the nine branch options.
[Berserker][Savage Heart][Ancestral Guard][Wild Magic] The above four meet the advancement requirements.
[War Madness][Storm][Beast][Giant][Fanatic Worshiper] The above five types do not meet the advancement requirements, but you can learn unique professional skills by spending incentive points. Skills cannot be acquired due to bloodline restrictions.
Now, please choose your advancement direction and embark on the original path.
“There are so many routes!”
Nohir was a little shocked, but he quickly calmed down.
“Although there are many branches, there are only four that you can choose from. However, you can use incentive points to purchase some skills of other professions. Take a closer look later, maybe there are some that can be used in situations like this.”
Shaking his head and thinking no more, Nohir first checked the ancestral guard path that he had never seen before. The other three paths that can be chosen have already appeared in Baldur's Gate. , Nohill still has some understanding of the professional abilities of these three.
Originally, Nohir was very interested in this new optional primitive path. However, after examining it, Nohir found that this path had very serious flaws for him.
The most essential ability of the Ancestral Guard is to summon the spirits of the ancestors to come to oneself and establish communication with the world of spirits, so as to obtain the blessing of the power of the ancestors. From then on, the one-on-one duel becomes a two-person duel. A group fight of one or more people.
but! Nohir's race is tiefling, and he is the bloodline of Zariel, who has only been a great devil for less than 100 years.
Zariel was an archangel from the Seven Hills Heaven 100 years ago. Because she was dissatisfied with her colleagues' indifference to the bloody battle in the abyss, she chose to lead the soldiers of the mortal world alone to invade hell. The King of Hell, Asmodeus transformed into the Archdemon.
In other words, any tiefling whose bloodline originates from Zariel is only the first or second generation blood descendant that appeared in this short period of 100 years.
As we all know, tieflings are humans with devil blood, which means that the ancestor spirits that have the ability to be summoned by Nohir using the ancestor guard profession can only be humans.
The only reason why Nohir could choose this ability is that there may be a powerful barbarian warrior among his ancestors, but his ancestors will never admit that his descendants have become what they are now. , if it is really hard to select, it may become very troublesome.
"In this case, the answer is obvious. Although the berserker has a strong frontal combat ability, his fighting style is too crazy, his abilities are too mediocre, and he has no spellcasting ability at all."
"Although Wild Magic has The ability to cast spells is too unstable. The magical effects displayed by each violent attack are completely random. Although they are all positive effects, they may not be able to achieve the correct purpose."
"Then choose. There is only one."
"I choose the path of [Savage Heart]"
