Why are you getting +12 from Full Plate in addition to Magical Vestment bonuses? Fighter Armor Training?

Magical Vestment is bugged. It doesn't work. In pen paper it gives you an enhancement bonus. Therefore its not supposed to stack with other similar named buffs that gives an enhancement bonus, like magical armor for example. Bug reports have been issued to the developers about this specific issue, it doesn't seem they have any plans to fix it.

Huh that's odd.

Well they finally fixed the buggy interaction between archaeologist's luck and lingering performance after god knows how long. So who knows when they'll get around to fixing magical vestment.

Was there a patch in last 2 months? I played one before that and it wasn't working well.

There was a patch two days ago.

Ah I see. I also see they fixed zero of the 5 bugs connected with Monks that I reported

You and me both. I've stopped sending bug reports months ago. Although I've been enjoying abusing them. Magical vestment is my favorite exploit.

Sprinting toward the finish of Varnhold's Lot. Thus far, it's a pretty good DLC. I decided to make custom companions for the DLC, and my god does it show in my team's performance. Even though my unorthodox party in the main campaign is doing great, having a custom team that synergies (even if only 2/3), makes a massive difference.

Just finished that DLC and the last dungeon - Lastlorn just drags on forever. You literally can't walk 5 steps without fighting a crowd, seriously it takes more time to finish than every section before it combined. Also I have no idea how do you even beat it without spamming stinking cloud, apparently devs thought that putting in dozens of fey and wisp ambushes was funny or clever way of designing ecounters. And that 37 AC demon (without difficulty modifiers) who creates copies of itself, I don't know how do you beat it without keeping it locked in CC (again, use stinking cloud), well at least it's a completely optional encounter. As usual, boss in the end is pathetically easy compared to what you face before fighting it.

The one source of decline in the DLC though, is the amorous dialogue options. It's so bad, out of place, and constant. The main campaign had it bad enough, but the cancer spread to the DLC too. While I was ambivalent about RPG romances before, I think Owlcat has turned me against them.

Did you play a female general ? I didn't, so I don't know what's going on between female PC and Varn, but what's really disgusting is that you can suggest Willas to penetrate his dungeon and he's happy to accept it.

 

[Pink Eye]

Sjukob A shame that you didn't enjoy the final dungeon. I myself enjoyed it immensely. In my opinion it was very reminicst of Durlag's Tower from Baldur's Gate 1. The puzzles and mazes were fun to play through as well. While the encounters were a bit too much, it was still fun for me. Playing it on Unfair gave me a run for my money.

I felt like it was very one sided, you either walk into the room and apply stinking cloud everywhere and effortlessly kill perma-staggered enemies or their ambush completely fucks you over, especially with TB mod, where enemies get a surprise round on you + they get to act first because of their high initiative, you simply can't allow them to do that. And everything besides fey and wisps isn't a threat to you anyway, with a couple of execptions like that trapped demon.

 

[Mr. Magniloquent]

Sjukob I am liking the dungeon so far. I did reload once from a sucker-punch ambush after teleporting into a room, but since then I haven't had any real issues. I'm not actually using much CC at all, because I went in with my spellbooks prepared for undead. The Wisps have been a non-issue, but the fey encounters can get out of hand if I'm not careful. Even still, it's going well enough. My party has a lot of elemental protection, which I think is part of my success. My MC for Varnhold's Lot is female. I would say about 1/4 of the dialogue options between Meager and the MC can be romantic. It starts right at the beginning and doesn't let up. This module is way too short for that sort of thing.

 

[ga♥]

Meh, not really sure how can you compare Lastlorn to Durlag. Even lorewise Durlag wins (not counting encouters)...

 

[Monkeyfinger]

I've never played an RPG with spell effects that look as good as PFK's.

Linearity aside, i quite enjoyed Varnhold DLC, never used stinking cloud either but my main character was a fire specialist crossblooded sorcerer dealing quite a lot of damage.
It was fun to make a glass canon team work and i enjoyed the last dungeon.

Spoiler

Well, it's less fun when you loose Varn because he was the second best damage dealer, after the sorcerer and the last combat with a team of 4 was quite tough as well.

Specially enjoyed fighting mimics the most, should have attacked that dragon too.

Spoiler

I Thought he'd attack once healed and i'd get both the xp reward and get to kill him but no, what was that, a lawful evil dragon ? Bummer ...

By the way, the warrior's weapon training feat "turning" heavy blades to the "light weapons" category when dual wielded doesn't seem to work, i'm building valeries as a longswords dual-wielder and she gets -4/-4 even with that stupid feat instead of -2/-2 (or isn't 0/-2 the best you can achieve ?)

Anyone tried it ?

 

[ga♥]

If you are talking about "effortless dual wielding" does it ask for the weapon type to pick when selecting the feat or it should apply to all weapons?

Also, do you have two-weapon fighting?

edit: best you can get is -2/-2

I started playing a few days ago and it looks like Linzi bugged out on me. All she does is run towards enemies and casts touch of enfeeblement wen she should be on crossbow duty. I'm in a sealed dungeon and can't exit unitl I finish a puzzle. Resting, or rather passing time since they can't hunt, doesn't help either. Is there anything I can do?

You have probably accidentally put Touch of Enfeeblement on auto-cast with right click. Try to right-click this spell again to switch it off.

 

[Pink Eye]

What she said. You can tell if a spell is set to auto cast by checking here:
Autocast on:

Autocast off:

[Outmind]

Turns out that was it, sort of. The skill isn't even in my quickbar - it was on a separate piece of parchment opposite the stealth and AI toggle icons. Right-clicking did the trick, thanks!

Still, it's weird that issuing a direct order didn't override this, even with the AI off.

 

[Havoc]

Having the Turn-Based combat mod on makes the game playable. And crafting too.

 

[Pink Eye]

Well, I'm glad you're enjoying the game, anon.

edit: best you can get is -2/-2

Yes, this one, effortless dual wielding and yes, she has the two weapon fighting feat.

And yes too, i have to specify the weapons group for effortless dual-wielding (heavy blades for longswords, bastard swords, greatswords and i'm not sure what else)
Still at -4/-4

 

[Delterius]

Do we know if there are going to be new updates to kingmaker?

 

[LannTheStupid]

Do we know if there are going to be new updates to kingmaker?

The said something like "we did not drop support of Kingmaker", but did not promise explicitly any new patches.

That might explain why the last patch for kingmaker took too long. Ouch.
