WTF's with all human companions? Bring in moar elves, dwarfs, orcs and their like.

Why?

WTF's with all human companions? Bring in moar elves, dwarfs, orcs and their like.

And males. I see where it's going.

 

[Reinhardt]

THAT was fast. Fourth, i think, event ever in my new kingdom and...

That's why jews merchants should not be allowed in Jerusalem.

 

[Serus]

Finished it! Woooo About 105 hours in total for me. Had a few minor visual defects in the final chapter, but other than that it seemed to work fine now.


Yeah didn't have Tsanna but had Bartholomew. I found all the allies made little difference, other than

Spoiler

Nyrissa

who was in the final battle.

What character levels have you reached at the end?

 

[Serus]

(...)
Vladim- LG(ood) Male Human Paladin of Iomedae: Russian accent, looks like Dobrynya Nikitich, great companion and advisor, but... better be Always Lawful Good or else!

Wolfram- LE(vil) Male Human Fighter: American accent, scarred veteran mercenary, village burner in chief, hates Linzi and demands you execute her for theft
(...)

I see what you did here...

 

[Shadenuat]

Linzi finally got her pet to ride look how happy she is

Creation of best waifu for Nok Nok continues, she already has a dowry which is this mammoth right here

Also being Barbarian gives +10 feet move which cancels -10 for hafling so now she runs really fast

Great

So,

is there a mod to cancel the fucking elephant stomping sound because it already turns me insane

 

[Lawntoilet]

Someone was saying on here that you can change companion alignments through their quests, but

Spoiler

I just finished Trial of the Gods and got the "good" ending by passing all the diplomacy checks, Valerie got her +2 Str and +2 Cha, but she's still LN.

Was I hoodwinked, or is there another way to do it?

Is there a way to cheat with the kingdom events... basically when you enter a spiral of "Crumbling" it's so hard to come out. Also I am totally uninterested with it.

I am stuck with a DC20 problem, and my warden is 20+1 lol...

Give your Warden your best +Con item.

There is in fact such a mod on the Nexus.

 

[Reinhardt]

I hope this merchant from bugged event is not the one from Jaethal quest and i don't have to start from the beginning.

Companions can be hit and miss in this game, IDK how they missed MCA's #1 rule that he always repeats: make all companions useful mechanically. Game also lacks pure mages, a noble Paladin advisor archetype and a ruthless henchman archetype. Instead we got Octavia, CG wizard/rogue

Way to contradict yourself. Octavia got rogue lvl exactly to be useful - not everyone will end up with Linzi in the starting party, but you need character for traps/locks.
Also, Jaethal is not ruthless enough for you?

Owlcat devs are streaming with some Paizo cucks.

 

[Shadenuat]

Sexy shoeless goddess of war

Spoiler

Also that Hide Armor +2 suits her well as well as fur cloak

paladins are p. pkay in Pathfinder

Spoiler

I even forgot to cast Challenge Evil (+2 sacred) and if we remove 2 weapon fighting and add +4 charisma from spell we'd go +24 on level 5.

Although maybe you want to spend +1 Divine Bond for Keen or Flaming on weapon.

 

[Parabalus]

What do you need to kill a Crag Linnorm?

 

[Shadenuat]

be creative

 

[Lawntoilet]

What do you need to kill a Crag Linnorm?

Cold Iron. There's a loading screen about it. You can buy Cold Iron weapons in the capital and should have found a +1 Cold Iron dagger at Old Sycamore, I believe.

 

[Shadenuat]

stop giving him advice!

 

[VentilatorOfDoom]

What do you need to kill a Crag Linnorm?

Just killed it, stack resist and protec fire communal then bash/shoot until unconscious then use cold iron weapon to deliver killing blow

 

[Parabalus]

stop giving him advice!

Are you retarded or something? Reading a random loading screen is "being creative"?

Anyway it died, thanks.

 

[Shadenuat]

No, killing it without Cold Iron is being creative.

But you of course need hints and advice to kill any encounter you can't lolrush.

How about just having a total solution to the game at ready, eh?

 

[hell bovine]

The companion list in this game is good overall but lacks that little something to be unforgettable. But hopefully in the next game they will fix all the little issues and that will be a true masterpiece.

Because an all human cookie cutter camp is unforgettable. Also, that necromancer is a second-hand Xzar, but without Monty.

 

[Parabalus]

It went near death to lolrush.

Do tell me which in-game book tells you they are vulnerable only to cold iron, nothing in the bestiary, e.g. trolls have a fire/acid mention.

There is actually an in-game book that describes a few monsters, the Linnorm included. I'm not sure where I found it but you can buy it from Tessie the Quill.

 

[Shadenuat]

It's "Guide to Travelers:", yes.

You find first part somewhere in prologue, so people who say wisps don't shoot lightning would know that wisps shoot lightning.

There is even a book in game that tells you the location, or at least mentions, a local

Spoiler

CR17 dragon

but as I said, you can do without Cold Iron.

That's the thing about difficulty and fun tho

One person finds enemy they can't kill, and they continues to return to the fight and try and find a way to win.
Another goes "lol thats retarded" reads solution and then proclaims encounters "piss easy".

 

[ga♥]

Give your Warden your best +Con item.

I know your intetions are good but I am 80 hours in... my warden is Kessen and my kingdom is pure shit , because:
1 - I didn't know at start how to manage it.
2 - I simply neglected it.

So im stuck with disaster after disaster.... and I don't want to restart.

I'm sorry, if you really hate playing as human then maybe this is the RPG for you.



But seriously, it's a common design mistake to avoid tropes for no good reason. Tropes are tropes because they resonate. IMO, in a game like Kingmaker, trope subversion or avoidance should be used sparingly, and the focus should be play within the tropes and executing them very well. Otherwise you may get something like PoE, a game that fails in part because it, ironically considering what it was pitched as, lacks any organic connection with famous fantasy tropes. For me it's rather more enjoyable to see my human Paladin slaying evil and a necromancer summon a horde of undead, than to see some weird races like half orcs with weird unknown classes like inquisitor and magus.

BG2 also only had 1 of each nonhuman race, except no halforcs even. Do you think it would have been better if Keldorn was a female halforc, Edwin was a halfling, and Minsc was a dwarf?

She didn't spawn yet for me, google tells me it's further along Ch2 than I am. Will look it up, thanks.

You mean stuff like level drain or attribute drain? That was my first idea, but don't have anything for it.

What's the name of the dragon book?
