KickStarter Pathfinder: Kingmaker Pre-Release Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

Dang, so the game allows you to choose for resting NOT to heal status ailments! Guess we're going druid now! If only for the new and exciting experience of actually using spells like cure disease. Preparing to expand my mind.

It was like that in BG as well. Diseases stayed through rest.

Didn't they heal after a number of consecutive rests? Hmmmm...

Well disease has its duration. You are supposed to either get rid of it naturally, with magic or die to it.

As far as I know, in the IE games resting with no healing spells memorized will only heal you by a few HP.

In the tabletop a character with a good fort save can very often just recover naturally.

Most diseases have a daily fort save against effects, with a natural cure on two or three consecutive saves. Some like Leprosy are once a week and are very hard to recover naturally from.

The important question is: Will there be Mummy Rot?

I do hope that only severe status effects stay on and not every single spell effect.

A better question is,would you be able to romance a mummy and ride its rod?

And I hope that all spells that last a long time in PnP last a long time in this game as well.

I hope so , the pen and paper rules have them , and level drains on several undeads to replace them on their throne of terror like they should be.

They made level drain slightly simpler in Pathfinder.

Negative levels just give a flat -1 to pretty much every roll, so you don't have to fuck around with sheets after every encounter with a drainer. They're still pretty bad as permanent negative levels are expensive to remove, and generally have a limited removal rate.

It was to combat the ol' 3e "Give me an hour whilst I rebuild my character" after getting drained.

Can someone with the knowledge of the beta give hard facts about the companions' alignment? Like, the inquisitor is evil, but is she lawful or neutral? The same goes for the goblin. Who else is evil? Is it really impossible to get a party without someone neutral-good?

I got an email from BerserkerKitten.

Some of our Codex backers should have backer portal accounts now, with keys. Those of you who don't will receive a PM soon.

I'm sure they will. Balance is for the decadent bourgeoisie of California.

 

[L'Montes]

I was disappointed to see classes like Oracle and Vampire Hunter didn't make it in (others I can understand). That aside, I feel like I'm looking forward more to the codex reaction than the game at the moment.

Yep, I'm surprised Oracles didn't make it in. They are a popular class in the tabletop.

Spontaneous casting clerics with some cool class features.

She is neutral evil. I saw it in an LP.

I can confirm that I got mine.

I don't care for the key so much but the backer tag would be nice. To show how easily fooled nice I am.

I sent out the PM. If you're a Codex fundraiser backer, didn't get your key and also didn't get the PM, please notify me.

 

[Zero Credibility]

Got it. Damn, why is tomorrow a work day?

if anyone is interested, I've just googled it out of desperation, and it seems that someone has updated wiki pages on all companions. Only a week ago it was just stub stub stub.

Will this one need an SSD for the loading times like PoE2 and BT4?

Fucktard's on drugs.

What he described is the 3.x version of level drain. -1 to all rolls, lose 1 highest level spell slot for each negative level gained. If your negative levels > your HD, you die. Pathfinder basically copied it wholesale.

 

[aweigh]

That's a good change. Negative levels were a fucking nightmare on PnP.
