I killed them at level 6 with heavy conjuring and debuffing. Use Amiri with enlarge person so she can attack from behind and reduce person Valerie so she can tank them better.

Edit about Nymph in act 2

survived the encounter with my Sylvian sorcerer alone by killing everything at level 7. pets and summons are op

party is level6
valerie
amiri (i think i will ditch amiri soon, usless)
jaethalwaifu
harrim
octavia (2 rogue 3 wiz 1 arcane trickster)
me (conjurer)

Any chance I can kill the 3 fucking greater enraged owlbears? Or I just give up and come back later
Normally, I'd suggest Webbing and/or Glitterdusting the things and pelt them to death from a distance. With all the bugs and whatnot in this game, however, anything probably goes.

Did you do the waifu quest? Take the disgruntled ranger, give him Devourer of metal, use waifu to summon hordes of turboskeletons (after her personal), hilarity ensues.

Owlbears will remember that.

Webbing doesn't work, they have too high saves.

As I said, the game is a bloody mess mechanically. Hence my hesitation.

Owlcat's mods are super anal fascist's. Be nice or else we put you in gulag!

I pointed this out before release. Dozens of people were banned and their posts deleted for criticizing the game in beta.
But if they put people in gulags then they are not fascists at all but instead, you know, those other guys.

If they don't patch this game soon so I can continue playing it without fear then I will kill everyone in this thread.

Try me, Owlcat. Try living in a world without Fedora Master.
Play Insomnia till Pathfinder gets patched.
Play whatever the hell you want till Insomnia gets patched.
Bard's tale is finishable....i hope so.

Not really, only the name of the spa resort changes, it is what it is. There are many differences but this is not it :P

Repeat after me: despite appearances, this game has not actually been released yet. I must wait for it to properly come out at a later date, perhaps a couple of months from now.

But after playing the incline I can't just go back and play another popamole RPG.
:stunned:
Try out the nu Asscreed,codexians are enjoying it. It is even in the general RPG forum.

Ah OK, so having Touch of Fatigue on autocast screws things up :D
I noticed my magus casting Touch of Fatigue every round of combat. If I just keep it on autocast and click attack, does that mean he will deliver one touch of fatigue through sword and another through normal touch attack? Or will he cast that Touch and always deliver it through his sword?
And yes, I did turn off AI because it is impossible to have character not break formation during combat if AI is on. And formation is especially important in a game with Teamwork feats.

It screws things up somewhat, yes, forcing you to give new target to the magus every round. Better AI handling for magus would help, one that will continue to cast & attack on his own and will not autocast if holding a higher level spell. Keeping Touch of fatigue on autocast and click attacking will do two sword attacks, one of which will also deliver a spell (the first one that hits). You do want to keep casting the cantrip or some other touch spell every round, as that is your source of that extra attack. But as I said, it's also somewhat dangerous to cast spells in melee, even for a magus. Assuming they kept the same numbers as in PnP, it's a DC 15 check to cast that cantrip without drawing fire from everyone around you. So a low level magus has about 50-50 chances of getting clobbered when he tries it, but at level 8-10, sooner if you pick a feat, that check becomes an automatic success and there is no reason to not spam the cantrip every round.

About the AI, even if it was good, nobody plays a game like this with it on. I have enough trouble with the enemies to fight against the brained character AI as well.

In ToEE, you can wander into a Hill Giant + Brown Bear (ECL 9 encounter, IIRC) when you are at level 1 by just following the side quests around Hommlet. And the best part is that if you are a CN party, getting to the treasure in that area is the reason why you are even in Hommlet in the first place! I can see Gygax laughing his head off from beyond the grave, the bastard...

That area was a Troika original, no such place is described in the module. :MCraig Matchett would be the guy responsible for that encounter.

I do. I honestly have had extremely little trouble with it, once I discovered that you can tell the party to Hold Position by pressing 'H'. Maybe I'm just missing something, I dunno.

Owlbears are hard, tree thing can be kited easily or you can tank it with deathward.
For will o wisps, use energy protection/immunity(lightning ) and see invisbilty spells. İnterract the well with energy protected party member.
Don't attack the poor old hag.

You trusted a gnome. It is pretty clear who needs to be executed, here.

I have a question though...

How do you progress further after killing the king? Where is Briar?

Yeah, I mentioned that issue earlier in the thread. It's complete and utter bullshit. I have no idea why they even created that situation to begin with, after having decided that Linzi is plot-critical somehow.
I'm pretty angry that best options to rule the barony are lawful ones. Even most lawful evil options are better than my chaotic good ones ...
That's probably because their interpretation of "chaotic" is "retarded". Interestingly, their interpretation of Neutral Good is also "retarded". Just in different ways.

I have no idea who they put in charge of alignments in this game, but whoever it was, they clearly don't have a single fucking clue about alignments or how they work.
