I am finally at the point that the invitation to Pitax arrived. Is it save to play on? Or better play another char?
Pitax has a satisfying resolution now. But ensure the first thing you do in Pitax is progress Linzi's quest because it bugs out very easily otherwise.

The biggest bug right now is that the game locks you out of the best version of the good ending because research projects are bugged and don't count as they are supposed to. Though a lesser version of the good ending is still attainable.

There's is a lot of downtime after Pitax to develop the kingdom, but given the bugged research projects and some of the artisan crafting rewards that don't trigger, it's probably best to stop after beating the Pitax boss. Especially since the "big patch" is apparently very close to being deployed for public beta testing.

The big patch is a myth.

You can also buff her before the duel, which is probably a little unfair.
But then again, that guy is using healing and also self-buffs against someone who doesn't have magical abilities - pretty scummy if you ask me.
That is just his paladin abilities. His real difficulty is that he is higher level and they gave him much better items. She can only hit him on natural 20.
There aren't a lot of reasons to take Sunder Armor early on with Valerie but it makes that duel way easier.

What happens to the First Faithful quests (the cultists) if I kill Tristian for the occulus?

I think this might be the most ridiculous item I have found considering it only takes item slot (artisan quest). Insane difficulty seems to be mandatory in middle game so there is atleast any challenge at all.

Steam is also full of people, who have 36 AC melee rogues at lvl 14 and complain that game is too easy. Newsflash: it is because you play on de-facto easy difficulty.

What would be appropriate AC for unbuffed lvl 14 melee rogue? Also I dont see the point of sacrificing dmg output so Nok Nok can take 3 hits instead of 2 there are better ways for reducing damage to party in middle game. Another point is I only said that middle game was not challenging (in hard difficulty) so I recently changed difficulty (after bloom) and Im exporing Pitax area now.

How many charges and what's the duration?

Its a passive bonus just need to keep it in quickslot

36 unbuffed is very good. Care to break that down, I'm curious

With buffs I think it is 42 but that requires reduced person spell which is not worth it. Mutagen adds another +2 to AC and mirror image + stoneskin seems to be enough defence for now when pets + summons are absorbing most of damage with my main monk

With monsters in Act2 already having +34-36 to hit, 36 AC is like 0 AC.
But you didnt play on Insane, didnt you? So how would you know this unless i told you.

I dont know, i play on hardest difficulty and melee rogues are not viable there.

Sadly story characters you play with - are badly optimised, like Valerie who cant tank reliably (TS specialist with low dex, while her class rely on high Dex). So i wait for patch to be able to respec story characters.

Ok. Not exactly unbuffed. Where does the Sacred bonus come from?

It is that item I posted - Rod of Power Source. It might be considered as a buff but it last forever as long as it is in item slot so kind of like an equipment :)

Can't you do that with respec mod? Worked well for me changed all companions other than Nok Nok and Octavia

I dont want to use mod for this, can cause problems with game (new bugs, etc).

I wait for patch, if it doesnt arrive with replay game in future with this mod.

But this is kinda not cool, game is best, but this feature - you lose access to banter/unique buffs/food effects etc. - if you play on unfair, it is not cool.

steam is full of peple that:
-think casters are useless
-think game is too hard in story mode because enemy can stun and you need to buff.
-consider game bugged because nwn have different rules
-say D&D at high level suck: source people that play D&DOnline.

You have to be a special brand of retarded to think casters suck in Pathfinder.
