Pathfinder Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous - Game of the Year Edition

[Average Manatee]

How can you play the game and have no idea of this mechanic?

Apparently you weren't aware of the mechanic either since you made up your own mechanic. Including not knowing that kingdom ranks have always been worth 2 points towards the DC checks.

3 DC is pretty close to irrelevant though, especially when most of the time you can don't have many options on who to send since everyone is tied up. It's also apparently a rare thing that only a few events have since I checked two and no advisors triggered that DC change.

Letting 1300 BP lie around without productively investing it means you have a bright future in corporate finance but its a lousy way to make sure you get your items on time. Yeah, you've got a haul when you get back from Trobold. So did I. Why didn't you use it to get your Kingdom going?

I see I need to repeat myself, since as a retard you can't read well and need things explained multiple times to understand. As I said in the original post for that image, my cities were full. The buildings were built. There was nothing to buy. Every usage of BP was exhausted. Going back to the original original thesis this discussion is premised on, this shows that BP is not the limiting factor for kingdom development, only player time is.

You guys are right. He is autistic.

my cities were full. The buildings were built. There was nothing to buy. Every usage of BP was exhausted.

Yeah, that's because you haven't even unlocked North Narlmarches yet, because you haven't gotten Community to III. Since that unlocks Relations you'd think that would be a priority. If that extra region unlocks a Town then there's the use for your BP. If I play again I may focus more on MIL and COM to unlock those advisors instead of DIV. Probably would be cheaper since it requires less spam of the same building (Shrines around a central Monument).

Gotta hand it to you, you RP LE exceedingly well. Nothing LG enjoy more than pwning LE in public, plus people get to:

(a) see that there's actually a lot to KM after all. Would be the same for Crusade if a modder could add some HoMM-style adversaries.

(b) learn some ideas to improve their game

So by all means continue the clown show.

3 DC is pretty close to irrelevant though

The idiocy never ends. Increases chance of success in the example posted by 15/35 = 3/7 = almost half. If you use a bonus point IIRC you'd cut failure chance from 40% to 25% using the better advisor. This is akin to saying that a +3 weapon is irrelevant.

 

[Desiderius]

We all sell our stuff from adventuring (and everybody goes to Trobold). Most hit all the areas with items in them on the way to or from quests once we know where they are (second or third playthrough).

The difference of getting the early jump to unlock advisors and artisans (and doing their quests ASAP) is that we get that much gold (and more) by having artisans show up to give us valuable items at the end of every rank up or region annex/upgrade. Also gives you (many) more chances to get the items you want.

Everything you're arguing and posting just illustrates the extent that you're not doing this, or not doing it nearly as well as you could.

You stupid nigger. You have no evidence I don't have them unlocked before you. I would bet that I infact do, since you are provably worse at me at developing your kingdom.

Yeah, that's because you haven't even unlocked North Narlmarches yet, because you haven't gotten Community to III. Since that unlocks Relations you'd think that would be a priority.

Look, dumbfuck. You didn't have it unlocked even a month after me. Don't hurt yourself trying to rationalize this.

The stat advantage isn't irrelevant, the overall usage is since you can't get it on many events and advisors aren't always flexible. You also assume all advisors are the same skill.

Furthermore it looks like you're awful at leveling your advisors in the first place to have them so weak. I don't think I've ever seen an event with a chance of success as low as 35%

I have every artisan unlocked and quest finished as soon as I get them. You really can't stop making up your fantasies can you?

This whole discussion started with you whining that you don't have BP. Why are you pretending you are good at the game?

 

[Desiderius]

Evidence? Isn't isn't unlocked because you don't have your Community stat to III yet. That's the prerequisite to unlock it. It's in the pic you posted.

In the pic you reposted it looks like I hadn't done Trobold yet because if you wait you get another quest at Bart's House.

Do you need me to teach you everything?

It was also from a playthrough before I figured out to take the loan, so I was sucking there almost as bad as you do. The main obvious difference was that I was on the verge of unlocking Arcane already even without the loan while you were nowhere close.

I don't think I've ever seen an event with a chance of success as low as 35%

Sometimes the Opportunities have higher DCs than the Problems. They're things you can take a flyer on if you have free advisors. Which I often do since I don't dick around leaving 1.300 BP in the bank instead of unlocking them.

Looks like that shot was from a playthrough where I was experimenting (you know that thing you can do to figure out how to do things instead of just sucking and crying about the game?) with Jub on Espionage.

Most experiments are failures. That one was. But not all.

I have every artisan unlocked and quest finished as soon as I get them. You really can't stop making up your fantasies can you?

And... you're not getting them in a timely manner because your ranks aren't high enough yet. Thanks for posting a pic to confirm. If you unlock North Narlmarches you can even use Sweet Teeth to advance the artisan quests before you'd normally be able to.

Once I figured out to take the loan I was able to build the buildings necessary (in this case that would be Brewery towns which are pretty cheap since they don't require duplicate buildings) to start ranking up while you were still "exploring" or doing quests as fast as you get them. Outside of artisan quests that isn't necessary.

Also figured out that all the discount projects are a waste of time. I still get all the loot on the way to doing artisan quests, saving companion/plot quests to do on the way.

 

[Desiderius]

Thanks for motivating me to do another full playthrough. Been wanting to try out some mods this time. Once I finish a modded Wiz 8 run I'll get on that and post some pics so you can learn how to ease your frustrations.

Yes... it's almost like it takes time to rank up and unlock advisors. That's the whole fucking point, retard. Have you paid any attention to what the conversation is about? Advisors are hardlocked by time spend upgrading them. You essentially can't play the Kingdom game better than I have in the screenshot provided, where I calculated the exact minimum path to complete the chapter and all areas and did zero rests through the whole chapter. Literally all time that could possibly be spent was spent on ranking up advisors. I think I lost a few hours due to being overburdened (med encumbrance) for a few trips but that was is.

re: arcane I immediately spent the time unlocking new regions afterwards, building the cities and ranked it up so that I could teleport into unexplored areas. It's literally impossible to do so beforehand due to a lack of time.

Go ahead and show me where you can unlock advisors with BP. I'll wait.

"just unlock all your advisors and all your regions in zero time".

I guess you admit that you use cheats?

Meanwhile you don't even have the fucking north narlmarches unlocked yourself.

 

[Efe]

If I recall correctly its the base stat and not the upgrade rank that unlocks slots.
Since you can focus on buying buildings that boost a stat of your choice, you can unlock advisors with bp.

In that case, I'd probably go for an Ecclesitheurge. They can put the spells from their 1st domain into normal spell slots.

For a CG character:
Caedan: 1st domain Charm, 2nd Chaos (enchantment focus) *
Calistra: 1st Charm, 2nd Luck, Trickery, or Chaos (enchantment) *
Gorum 1st Destruction, 2nd Chaos (necromancy)
Sarenrae 1st Fire, 2nd Healing, Good, or Glory (evocation) - this will overlap with Ember to a degree.
Unfortunately, I don't think any of Dezna's domains really have a spell list that would benefit an Ecclesitheurge. Chaos is probably the best bet.

*these two probably fit the feel of Azata best.

For a CN character replace Sarenrae with Gozreh 1st Domain Weather or Air, second Animal (evocation), or Nethys 1st Domain Destruction, 2nd Magic (necromancy).

I'd probably go Human Str 7 Dex 14 Con 14 Int 11 Wis 19 Cha 14 with pickpocket background for +2 Initiative. 4 skills (probably trickery, lore: religion, perception, persuasion). You'll probably want to use a crossbow.

I'd probably pick Impossible Domain: Community after getting to 8th level.

Since you can focus on buying buildings that boost a stat of your choice, you can unlock advisors with bp.

It’s both (I think, it’s definitely base stat which you need to rank up to three in the first place). You need the buildings to get the base stat up (which takes BP) and the time to rank them up (instead of gallivanting around the countryside like well below Average Manatee).

I’ll see if I can get some pics up this week to walk the delusional retards through the process. Pretty obvious how he came to suck this badly with this approach.

I’ll be posting in the correct thread to allow this one to return to Wrath.

 

[The_Mask]

If anything, this whole intermezzo has made it perfectly clear that the whole HoMM-lite minigame WOTR has, is far less entertaining than even what P:K had.

Are you saying he's wrong? I've figured that's exactly what's been going on.

Spoiler

One adaptive hypothesis to explain the occurrence and maintenance of SSB [same-sex sexual behaviour] is that it acts to intensify or diminish aggression by providing males with a means to reinforce or resolve dominance.

...

Our findings provide the first empirical support for the hypothesis that SSB is an extension of male–male competition. Furthermore, our results suggest that SSB may act as a display, allowing males to resolve dominance hierarchies without escalating into an injurious fight.

They're just sorting out which one's going to play catcher or if they're going to take turns.

Sorry for late reply, I was on vacation :D
This is an older save, couldn't find higher leveled ones, probably deleted...
Still lacking some equipment, buffs and my MC got lich sickness (-2to attacks, damage, saves and etc.) But still got 27 at that level with 10 adamantine. Also immune to sneaks, critcals and paralysis and sleep thanks to Crossblooded and taking its level 20 buffs early thanks to mythic power.

End game weapon was a scimitar because of crits. Shield bash builds really shine with higher crit rangeç

They've moved on to RT probably. I don't think the Season Pass 2 is coming even at this point.

If they gonna add a new race it will be probably in the rumored Enchanced Edition during fall
