Imagine going in blindly, hearing the Red Princess is being hunted by the Black Ring. You may not have the Red Prince but you can't just let her get hurt.

You make it through the arena just fine to find the dreamers. One step closer to helping the princess.

You speak to them and get absolutely no choice but to kill them out of self defense, can't even back out of the conversation. Also worth a note that they sound very suspicious so you can feel a little extra justified.

Then you get to the princess. Oh you killed the dreamers? Well your evil and gotta die. No dialogue to explain self defense, no persuasion check. Now the princess is dead, everyone is dead, all beacuse you wanted to help and the game didnt let you do it naturally.

Why would they build a quest where, if you proceed naturally and dont have the prince, everyone would get killed unless you save scum and lock pick/pickpocket a key to a door to avoid the dreamer fight?

I am fairly deep into act 4 and have spent the money to level it up to the 19's. I love the crit boost, perpetual flight, and extra range from always having farsight on. I always kill creatures from a distance so I never really consume corpses and my magic damage is so low I rarely use the sandblast source point.

However I am wondering what I am missing out on by not finding other good armors that stack normal boosts and allow more rune slots. Am I missing out or am I right in enjoying the free flight mechanic and farsight?
