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

[Average Manatee]

Regill is a great moralfag.

My problem with Wenduag is that she just doesn't really have character development. Her arc is "might makes right" -> "I'll follow you" ??? "the guy who humiliated me, has mythic power, has shat on archdemons, is no longer strong enough for me" -> "wait guess I was wrong, now might makes right again and I'll follow you". There is a small amount of wiggle room where you get her to act nicer but its really just acting nicer rather than changing her inherent ideals. On second thought this might reflect fundamental female nature on both accounts. WotR, the romance redpill game.

Regill is hardly a moralfag, he is considered evil in the game because he has hardly any moral and will use any mean available to achieve his goal, whatever the situation.

 

[Average Manatee]

A moralfag is just someone who is pushing their way of viewing the world onto you at every turn. He has morals, they are just very different.

The transvaluation of all values distilled in one sentence of ultimate cringe.

You have been assimilated.

Wrath dialogue reads like a therapy session. There's a reason for that.

1. (Good) Long and painstakingly detailed response relevant to current quest and recent plot events.
2. (Evil) Let's kill everybody and rape the corpses, copy&paste 100x into every dialogue.

 

[Mr. Magniloquent]

I have an idea that I want to test out. Do Stormlord's Bracers work to set electrical damage on all energy spells (like Magic Missile), or just elemental spells? I am hoping that I can blend it with TTT Elemental Spell metamagic to trigger an elemental barrage for each missile. I am going to try it out tonight. At current ML5, I should be able to achieve something like 8d8+5(5d6+1d4+3) damage per cast of Magic Missile, which is a cantrip for my Trickster.

I also found a sickle in the markets which I can use on my own characters to randomly boost a stat by +2. Hello, infinite wand of cure critical wounds! If these bonuses remain indefinitely (not purged on rest), my hero is about to ascend to demigod status.

Wrong, in the first chapter, evil answers are more pertinent than good ones.

I'm kinda fed up about Kineticist and its 3 capacities one shotting enemies.
What class do you recommend for providing multiple options for encounters?
Monk Sohei? quaterstaff master? Scaled fist? Traditionnal?
Bloodrager primalist?
Magus Sword Saint?

Papers and Packing – Physical Rewards Status​

Hello, Pathfinders!

Like we said in our previous update, we’ve finally made sufficient progress with the physical rewards shipping situation. We’ve finished preparing all necessary papers, conducted an inventory at the warehouse, accounted for all the items, and started packing Individual orders for shipping. We can’t wait to start sending out the packages! Because some items are fragile and need to be packed with extra care and love, and because we have a lot of items to ship, this process is taking some time.

Still, we hope that in our next update we will announce that the shipping has finally resumed. Thank you for being patient with us!

Additionally, we want to congratulate our friends at BKOM and Paizo on Pathfinder: Abomination Vaults - Hack & Slash ARPG being fully founded! We are very excited about this game.

That is all for today. Stay tuned for our next update from Yerevan, Armenia!

Love, Owlcats

Your party has six members, not one.

 

[Desiderius]

Qstaff Master Angel is a nice one if you like CMs. Trip supplemented with Disarm and Sunder on targets where those are good, plus dice keeps growing to so can hit hard with Legendary Proportions. Size also buffs CMB.

Reformed Fiend Bloodrager Aeon works well as a Cleaver.

Arcane Rider has a teleport that takes your mount with you, though Bladedancer meta-caster seems like it would be fun. I like the racial special archetypes in general. Phantasmal Mage with Shadow spells makes up for the downside of Arcanist and gets free Meta, Order of the Paw has an AoE advantage on saves ability and tanks well, and Purifier has a Cloak just for it in the Lab. Student of Stone is held back a little since Elemental Fist is so bad but Shaitan kind of gets there late with an AoE Stagger. I played it with Aeon and it had some good play to it. Only one too hard for me to get into is the Human one, though I guess if you like switching up your party make-up it could fill in the blanks.

Basically this game highly encourages you to have party members that specializes and spams the same thing rather than have "multiple options". At higher difficulties enemies have AC, saves and CMD to absurd levels that mean you can't kill them unless you build your character around 1 thing. A class that provides multiple options is a good indicator that the class is shit.

 

[Average Manatee]

Just now learned that Mark of Justice only applies to other party members of the paladin, not the paladin itself. What the fuck...

I assume this is a bug? Not sure if this is a hard and fast rule in D&D rules lawyering like it is in some other games, but generally anything that mentions "friendly" or "ally" includes you unless it specifies something like "OTHER allies".

Suck less. It's fun.

Just now?

It's already broken in half in this setting, and I'm known not to use that word lightly. So you throw on a Smite next round if you need it, or use the Smite to boost AC and throw on Mark to follow.

It's the only thing keeping the ability remotely balensed.

 

[Average Manatee]

Just now?

Always used it with Seelah and then I'm mostly watching my strongest melee character's attacks/damage, which is either myself or someone else with their own personal buffs and who isn't maxing CHA. Don't really have time to check that every character has every buff working properly.

Finally reached Threshold
Some things I noticed -
- Stormcallers are bullshit and way too overtuned. Even with Resist and Protection their spells still deal a lot of damage.
- Storyteller is an absolute beast who basically solo'd the Balor and 2 Vavakias
- Galfrey is still useless
- On Devil Mephisto comes to help and he can also basically solo the enemy too. In fact, its recommended you let him solo the demons because he will cast Dictum and it will kill half your party.
How do you block dictum anyway? It says Sonic, but as it doesn't deal damage I'm going to assume that Protection from Sonic / Resist Sonic isn't going to do anything.

 

[Cyberarmy]

How do you block dictum anyway?

Be lawful

Oh, I'm fine, I'm a Devil. My healers though...

Bwahaha.

 

[Yosharian]

How do you block dictum anyway?

Make your saving throw?

 

[CthuluIsSpy]

How do you block dictum anyway?

Make your saving throw?

Apparently that's the only way of doing it, although its just a partial rather than a negate.
How does the partial work anyway? Does it just go the next eligible effect?
Like, instead of dying, staggered and paralyzed it goes to staggered and paralyzed?

How good is Dictum / Holy Word / Whatever when used by a player anyway? I didn't bother using it because its HD based and enemies tend to have a lot of HD.
Maybe if used by a Angel Cleric due to the Merged Spell Book.

 

[Cyberarmy]

You only get staggered for a round if you make the saving throw.

Holy Word is really good in this campaign, as long as you don't bring any evil party members.
