I decided not to go for lone wolf because I didn't want to miss out on the companion stories. Two-handed weapons aren't really bad but they don't feel particularly good either (unless you have inflated lone wolf stats). My sword + shield character however ended up oneshotting everything with his shield toss anyways like he's Captain America.
I think they really need to buff ground effects in 1 even with lone wolf you couldn't. Just stand in them unless you went out of your way to craft resist on all of your gear. But in 2 I was ignoring ever ground effect and I was wearing really out dated gear most of the game because I refused to wear any thing without atlest 1 summoning.
Yes, ground effects are somewhat weak unless you actively move through that whole sea of fire, then it hurts, but just standing it - no problem, bring on the heat! Kinda silly.
Ya I was litterarly wearing gear from act 1/2 the whole game because nothing with summoning wanted to show up. The only thing in replaced after act 2 was my chest plate because I found one with 3 slots song could slot in 3 summoning.

Ya in 1 I remembered I levelled crafting every play though so I could craft on resist but In 2 you really don't even have to think about it.
Ever since I switched to Steam it's been running like shit. Anyone else experienced this?
My last fight got bugged, retarded.
Went there without doing anything at Arx, worked but noticed how annoying it was with the "plot twist" decided to farm the bosses for gear and do the quests instead, went back, bugged..ZzZzZ.
Skipped phase 1 completely and they were neutral, and nuked Braccus, game over.

I'm deep into Act 2 (level 13 *almost 14*), and I've had to turn away from some tough fights because I just couldn't take the hits. I'm thinking that my gear is just too crappy. A lot of it is still stuff from Fort Joy and I only have about 100 Armor points on each of my characters, so these enemies with CC Skills pretty much neutralize me the first round. I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions on what to do about equipment? Should I be crafting or buying gear? Most of my gold I've spent on skillbooks.

Seems like your gear is really outdated considering you have so low armor. Quests usually give pretty decent gear but it is quite random with what kind of stats they come. Sometimes you have to ditch that +1 Summoning piece if the upgrade is big though. Also use +magic armor and +physical armor skills.
The only advice I can give you, and I ignored this myself in the beginning, is pickpocket. It is stupidly op. Just nick stuff from vendors; never have to buy resurrection scrolls again nor skills books. And you can buy pretty much all the gear you need (or nick it as well).
EDIT: Also to avoid getting caught. Unchain your thief, and let her steal the stuff alone, and then move her away while the rest of your party is in plain sight. The merchant will then search your party (upon noticing stuff has been nicked) and find nothing.

All right, gentleperchildren, let's review. The year is 2024 - that's two-zero-two-four, as in the 21st Century's perfect vision - and I am sorry to say the world has become a pussy-whipped, Brady Bunch version of itself, run by a bunch of still-masked clots ridden infertile senile sissies who want the Last Ukrainian to die so they can get on with the War on China, with some middle-eastern genocide on the side
