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

[Lady Error]

So is this worth playing? Better or worse than Kingmaker?

I still coudn't get into the first one, the small maps and railroading are kind off-putting. Cartoony companions didn't help either.

 

[Desiderius]

What the fuck? Demon spells automatically use CHA and will not use any other mental stat?

This is fucking DUMB WHAT THE HELL

welcome to unmerged spellbookery

TTT fixes this though it still says CHR too low on spellbook the spells are there (on my reloaded test save). Good idea to get decent CHR on MC just in case.

I don't think so. If you are romancing Wenduag, she brings up tormenting Kyado as one of the good times you've had together.

Yeah, as in "remember when we did that Bad Cop/Worse Cop routine on the priest cuck? That was great!" type of way. Who wouldn't fondly think back on that?

She is evil, but not comically evil.

In my opinion it is still not finished. Wait another 6 months.

She’s one-dimensional and uninteresting if you take Lann, and Lann’s kind of a dick if you take her. Subtle pandering to player choices.

I think the Spirited charge bug happens when Mount is the first to hit, because sometimes the bug is there, and sometimes not.

The mount striking first has not caused Spirited Charge to fail to occur in my testing.

Here's an example:

Aru initiated the Charge.

And here's one from the middle of combat to rule out surprise round shennanigans:

Working fine for me. The mount (Warlock) hits before Regill, but he still gets the SC multiplier.

Might not be it, but it certainly isn't working (as you can see)

Poor Daeran’s Wolf is wrecking house but Daeran doesn’t even have Outflank yet. His Aasimar Heritage does get a Mobility buff though lol.

Any tips on azata chapter 4 quest?

quest

killing the whole market. I killed all the slave trader except all the floating flesh eyebal thing in the center. The problem is the giant shadow guard thing keep casting horrid wilting and wiped my party. I can tank and kill 2 of them but there are 3 of them. Near the arena

Hated that quest cause I was doing a solo run on hard and this was the first forced really impossible fight I encountered. But the thanadaemons were not the problem, the gribileth was. I had to cheese it by using dimension door near Shamira's. Disgusting, I know. The daemons you can CC, or nuke easily while they cast enervation. But for horrid wilting raise your fortitude saves as much as you can (e.g. with bear's endurance or Seelah's bestow grace).

gribileth

Lmao who names these things.

well did it with what i call "just use all of the summons + AOE + Trap/pits bullshit)
planted heightened+ selective +spell specialization (level 7 and 6) 5 greases layer in each of the giant guards. selective + heightened acid pit level 5 in all of the area as much as possible. use ALL the terrain reflex spell. ALL the buffs. ALL the summons whether from skills, items, w/e. daeran auto casting channel positive energy and a bit of luck in dice rolling, i finally did it. i think it almost destroyed my computer and burn my house. the game ran like 10 fps

this is why i don't trust owlcat with turn based combat. if rogue trader had this kind of encounter then fuck them.

Summons are such a game-changer in those early game fights. Can't be overstated. Just having walls of hit points to screen your characters can by itself reduce tough encounters to facerolls.

That seems to be the case for a good while depending on the summon. Beer mug and duality are still mainstays in my hotbar. I don't often use them, but when I do, it's because shit's serious.

Also to all you guys answering my question of whether WotR was more difficult than P:K with "it depends," "I guess a little," "yeah, but..." fuck you for the understatement lol

I am currently fighting 2 Marilith and a respawning Derakni who are absolutely decimating my party at the same level/chapter/part of the game where I was pubstomping Vordekai dungeon without a single reload

I had to leave that fucking ancient corrupted treant fight for a while because I couldn't hit it

Even regular hallway fights have me on my toes. Carnivorous Crystals can go fuck themselves.

The fight I took screenshots from with the two mosqitodudes, two oozemen and the double-casting shadowdemon was insane

i luv it

 

[Grunker]

still curious about this btw

Out of curiosity

Spoiler

What are the "spill single drop of blood" checks in Areelu's lab? For some reason they can only use main char's perception, so I always fail the check.

And here's one from the middle of combat to rule out surprise round shennanigans:

Spoiler

What race is her mount? Is she using Reduce Person perhaps?

No and no. She's riding a smilodon (Large) and she has no changes to size (so Medium).

 

[Yosharian]

How dare you roll your eyes at me Hap! The damn game isn't finished, brother. You gonna tell me that they aren't fixing game-breaking bugs a few weeks after the launch of the ENHANCED EDITION? Come on man. Can we get real for just one moment here? The state of the game is fucking shocking.

The lategame Demon forms still have PLACEHOLDER ICONS FOR KEY ABILITIES and MISSING TEXT IN WEAPON NAMES. How are we gonna say that this is a finished game.

Poor Vordakai =(

Even with maximum vanilla stats and improved stats from mods, he still lasted a few rounds tops in my last playthrough. Sad times.
