The other subrace trades Ferocity for +1 all saves and +2 Nature Lore while keeping the Weapon familiarity (the main benefit of playing Half-Orc on a non-Martial). Why do you need Skilled? Sounds like you’re hyper concerned with very early game which Leopard + lvl 3 Barkskin + Iceplant all really help with. Does Shaman not get Prot Align? Cam does.

Since you’re starting late on your Slayer the Studied + full BAB isnt going to do much for awhile and as you’ve pointed out half the benefit from full BAB (faster iteratives) will be wasted in any case. Since Rowdy is always attacking at full AB the 3/4 is less of an issue and you’ve got a Booter and Alchemist to buff that a ton. Add in Hampering Hex and you shouldn’t have any issue at all, at least one that trashing your whole base class for a couple AB is going to solve.

The Slayer is not a front line fighter and is not going to be in a position to be targeted often, my two riders were going to be my front rank. I decided to go with Vanguard for the Rowdy/Slayer in the end, anyway. Studied on slayer is an immediate +1 at first level; Rowdy 4/Slayer 1 is BAB 4 (+1 studied) vs rowdy 5 BAB +3 which is a noticeable benefit. Things just get better from there.

Moving towards taking a Kitsune Arcane Rider and an Aasimar Ecclesitheurge rather than Human Cleric of Erastil and a Tiefling Incense Synthesizer.

Was trying to make sure every skill was adequately covered in the party and I needed the +1 point/level for human-raised (which meant I could dump Int to 7 on him and still pick up Perception and Knowledge: Religion with full skill ranks).

They… don’t get better from there since the Rowdy levels are now dead. You would have delayed getting the main benefits of the class for three/four lvls for a marginal benefit. Glad you saw the light. Rowdy is kind of a meme anyway since half the benefit of Debilitating is landing Rogue iteratives (Rogue gets much bigger benefit for itself) which Rowdy doesn’t use and it often hits so hard that Debilitating no longer matters. Alch can give Rowdy True Strike BTW.

The trick on Vanguard will be finding some way to buff Studied Target to make Vanguard’s Bond suck less, though I’d assume that Defensive Study should work with it so wouldn’t be awful.

Set a Course for the Midnight Isles!

Ahoy, pathfinders!

The cursed ship has arrived! Set sail for the greatest treasure hunt in the history of the Abyss In the brand new DLC—The Treasure of the Midnight Isles!

This is the final DLC in the Season Pass 1, and if you have the Season Pass, it means you just need to download the DLC and put on your favorite pirate hat. If you don’t have the Season Pass, you can purchase the DLC separately:

Start a new game and select the Treasure of the Midnight Isles to play as a stand-alone, rogue-like campaign. Create different parties, try new classes, archetypes, and builds; you can even gain mythic powers from the mysterious crystals you find along the way. The game always starts in the Last Azlanti mode, but you can use Abyssal anchors to save your progress and try again after facing a particularly dangerous foe. Or you can accept the defeat, for the death of one party is the beginning of a new adventure for the next group.

And if you want to experience this adventure as your Commander, you can do this as well! The first chain of islands will become available in chapter 3, the second chain—in chapter 4, and the final expedition will take place in chapter 5. You can start the adventure any time before the end of chapter 5.

We are hoping you will enjoy this journey! Visit our discord server to chat with fellow sailors, and us, your Owlcats.

All aboard!

Looking forward to playing that in 2024 once the devs get some free time from half-finishing the game after Rogue Trader.

With the way CPs work dumping stats is pretty bad and Cleric doesn’t get Perception as a Class Skill anyway. Both Ranger and Slayer should have you covered for Perception since Slayer can get Trapfinding and Ranger gets Favored Terrain.
Vanguard does get Uncanny Dodge so would do well on the front (probably why its called Vanguard) with Weapon and Shield Combat Style (Shield Mastery at lvl 6!) to double up Studied bonus and Defensive Study.

I wouldn’t give up on the Incense Synthesizer if you’re playing TB. Always fun to try out an entirely different angle of attack and Infused Shield spell and the Touch debuff Bombs (Holy Bomb is good in this setting) makes things go a lot smoother even apart from the Incense.

You’ve got (more than) enough melee already.

This is the roguelike mode like in kingmaker right ? Probably as dull and boring ,only for build test purpose, that if you are still interested in it.

So is this new DLC supposed to be for combatfags who just want to fight and loot and not bother with dialogue? If so I'm probably diving right in.

Even more for buildfags as you can make your whole team from start and game supports it. Also you don't need to jump through hoops to get mythic abilities.

Got another one. Was in the end of the midnight fane on a save. Changed act and all of my quickslot items are completely gone. Toybox hasn't been updated yet so I can get them back.

Now I just need to wait for Season Pass 2/Absolutely Legendary Mythic Final Edition before starting 2nd playthrough.

I thought posting news on the Codex was your job? You mean you do it for free?

This review was informative and awesome! And DLC sounds very nice, it seems they put a good amount of effort into it.

Just watched the vid. They bring back old creatures from Kingmaker, which means that some niche subclasses like Defender of the True World will be useful again. Incline.

I was thinking about starting a new run, but EE is coming out in a month, and saves probably won't be compatible. So a month it is.
