Choosing Deity... and obscurity of the consequences

Post by Horrigoth »

So, today I created a new toon.
I needed this toon to be Neutral Evil, as I wanted to be a blackguard later.
I chose "Lia" as my deity, as it says Lia will shift alignment to Neutral. Sounded good, as I was Neutral Evil.

Well, I went up to level 8, and trying to multiclass to Blackguard now -- just to notice it has actually changed my alignment to TRUE neutral.
Maybe I missed the part where it says I will be TRUE neutral. I could swear it just says "will shift to neutral".

Would be nice if the system was a bit clearer on this. Just wasted 3 hours on this... unless if there is a way to become evil later, by changing to evil deity?

Yeah, thanks, I just happened to find it with a tip from a friend.

In any case, I think it would be very nice to change the selection in the beginning to make it clear it changes to True Neutral :)

In the context of the intro, it explains that the shift will be Good/Evil/Neutral, it doesn't mention Chaos/Lawful shifts.

I will add a note that Chaos/Lawful doesn't change.
