Pathfinder Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous Beta Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Pink Eye]

My mounts keep glitching out... Right now their pathfinding is freaking out:

Seelah and Monk also keep unmounting them too...

 

[Desiderius]

Yes, you move the Mount speed instead of your own, and there are abilities where you can use your Mobility to protect your Mount. Still not clear what can attack you when mounted but your Mount itself ends up pretty tanky.

Things like Tandem Trip work well when you and Mount both have them.

 

[Pink Eye]

Here. Check it out:

Spoiler

Seelah's mount stopped freaking out once I started recording, lmao.

 

[Pink Eye]

Wow. You guys have no idea how difficult it is to get my mounts into position without the AI pathfinding freaking out.

 

[Desiderius]

Just attack with the rider. Don't try to move the Mount.

Here's something for you Pink Eye:

Spoiler

 

[Desiderius]

OK, check out this Disciple of the Pike:

I chose this so I could get some Shield AC on the Azata Dragon but it has a lot of nice Features.

Not pictured:

4 Weapon Trainings (Spear class: Trident, Shortspear, Spear, Longspear - I'll be going Trident and Shield), turns on Dueling Gloves since no other Fighters.
3 Bonus Feats with option for Advanced Weapon Training abilities.
3 Bonus Teamwork Feats with Tactician activation every five levels (starts with one) that lets you share on with Team for 3 + 1/2 class levels rounds. Tactician becomes Swift Action at level 9.
Class Level/2 bonus to Lore (Nature) and Knowledge (Arcana)
At level 12 Challenge gives target -2 AC against attacks by teammates.
Base Challenge ability gives Class Level bonus damage vs Challenge Target:

That's this 5 extra damage at level 5.

Last but not least this Lion's Call thing is unlimited use.

Looking like fun.

Working toward:

And the Boots:

 

[Pink Eye]

Just attack with the rider.

Okay. That worked. Selecting the Rider does indeed prevent the mount from going hysterical. What the fuck, I hope this is fixed come release.

 

[Desiderius]

The Rider is the one in control.

 

[fantadomat]

The Rider is the one in control.

Sooo you are a furry faggot,informative.

 

[Desiderius]

Pounce + Double Charge damage?

I've got Demons to slay, son. If it takes a fox to do what you're unable to, so be it.

 

[santino27]

Any concerns about your baseline melee stats being effectively sacrificed to pump up cha for the 1-round ability, or is that something you're going address via buffs and/or itemization?

 

[Pink Eye]

Well I made it out of the prologue.

Good god. The game is janky. Whoever designed the levels absolutely hates mounted combat. Narrow pathways. Small doorways. Lots of rubble and shit for your mounts to get stuck on. The mounted combat also randomly glitches out, so that's lovely.

Yes then....informative.

 

[Delterius]

the game was designed so that having an animal companion actually feels kinda shitty

damn you doors!

I'm not sure it's targeted at any of the mounted classes, I was under the impression it was aimed at trying to make people Charge less. Correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[Pink Eye]

Nah. It's just janky. You can still charge even at a short distance.

 

[Pink Eye]

Heh. Check it out. So I started a new character to test if you get your favored weapon or not, and discovered that my dog has a created an entire religion based on me. Wonderous!

 

[Pink Eye]

Also you don't start with your chosen favored weapon, great. Kingmaker at least let you have the weapon you spend a feat to focus on - even letting Oleg sell every weapon type for you.

 

[Desiderius]

You don’t want to fight against the -2 at creation. Will fight Reduced and Agile eventually.

 

[Desiderius]

Quit your bitching. Use the weapon companion if you can’t find what you want.

 

[Pink Eye]

You're not seriously arguing that wasting a feat on weapon focus, and not getting your favored weapon; is actually a good thing. Since you can get the silly weapon companion at a later point. Are you? If so. That's fucking silly. In Kingmaker you got your favored weapon right out of the gate - hence it being a good idea to pick the feat, so you get a better weapon. Instead of whatever crap the game spawns you with.

I'm saying that this game has a wider weapon selection than any in history if you can wait five minutes and you get the companion to fill the gaps if you can't.

Spoiler

You don't start with a weapon because they're not allowed at the fair.

Spoiler

It's a story reason for you to start with no weapon - you will find out why later

 

[Pink Eye]

Okay. I guess that makes sense.

 

[The_Mask]

This is why you play monks. No one can take away your weapon. You are the weapon.
