Originally posted here, cross-post doesn't work atm

I don’t usually play tabletop and DnD, so I’m a little bit overwhelmed by everything going on all at once a couple hours into the game. I’m having fun playing as Lae’zel, and kind of going with it and have played quite a bit of D:OS2 years back, but I can’t help but feel like I’m messing things up somehow and might need to reroll a character later on.

Any beginner tips or things that made the game more enjoyable for you? Anything that took you way too long to realize? Didn’t see another thread anywhere else, but apologies if this thread already exists.

Little to no spoilers please.

  • You can select multiple items at the same time by using the control and shift keys
  • You can cheese most fights by shoving people off cliffs
  • The classic well-rounded party consists of a tank, a healer, a utility, and a spellcaster (example: barbarian, cleric, rogue, and wizard)
  • Bind your quicksave and quickload keys and save scum as much as you want on your first playthrough. Then go back and play for real a second time. You can even save and load mid-dialogue.
  • If you are not having fun as your current class, a certain NPC in your camp will allow you to change your class for 100gp

Bind your quicksave and quickload keys

On PC these default to F5 and F8, respectively.
