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

[Desiderius]

Can't. Protocol, etiquette, politeness and rectitude often propose too many contradictory options.

Barbarians exist to resolve them.

Desideius, since you know a lot about the game, which MP do you suggest for a Shadowcaster? I will re play wotr after I finish RT and die in hardcore ddo.

It's a big game. Haven't played a Shadowcaster or a Lich yet*. Probably a flaw in Trickster design that it offers little to the class that I'm aware of. Completely normal spell?

I'd probably play Demon for the extra DC and summons turning on their summoner theme.

* - I talk like I do about Scion and Reg (mostly tongue-in-cheek but not entirely!) because I *have* played those and found interesting things there and the ankle-biters are talking out of their asses/relying on clueless journos who suck.

 

[EdgyRightWinger]

Why do bulk portrait packs include the following? It's a big waste of time having to delete them.

• Halflings
• Gnomes
• Furries
• Tieflings
• Half-Orcs
• Blacks
• Tatted up women
• Obviously homosexual shirtless dudes
• Anime art styles.
• Anime hair in any art style
• Low res artwork that looks like shit in game
• Women being overly affectionate to their wolf or dog. You just know.

But then they ain't nice about it.

 

[razvedchiki]

anyone tried the new assasin? can you sneak up to mobs and backstab them?

 

[Mr. Magniloquent]

Trickster makes sense for a Shadowcaster MC because of Completely Normal Spell and because of mythic tricks and cloak which let you reroll checks. Your shadow minion should never turn on you. Depending on how it's coded, CNS might also be able to manipulate Shadow Spells by using higher level spells. While I very much appreciated Owlcat putting in the shadow spells, they're a little limited without TTT mod. I don't really consider them worth using without it.

The domains were bugged for awhile since he had Godclaw as his Deity instead of his Order, but that was fixed a year or so ago.

It's bugged now, couldn't select during level up with the latest patch.

Also unrelated, the demondand secret abode fight is bugged, enemies will revert to neutral NPC status in the middle of the fight (!) and the new heavy armour mythic feat that add damage doesn't add damage...

Now that Wrath Trader is released maybe the talent can get back to WotR final edition once that's somewhat stable.

I'm waiting on both.

Owlcat is never going to change are they

 

[IHaveHugeNick]

No reason to change. "Bugged but huge" design school has made them and Larian a lot of money,. If looks stupid but it works, it's not stupid.

 

[Average Manatee]

It's one thing to have bugs, it's entirely another thing to have bugs that come back after you've fixed them.

 

[Rhobar121]

No reason to. change "Bugged but huge" design school has made them and Larian a lot of money,. If looks stupid but it works, it's not stupid.

There is no point in comparing Larian and Owlcat. In the case of Larian games, the game is 100% playable at launch, at most the last act is unfinished.
In the case of Owlcat, whether you manage to complete the game depends on whether you roll 20, otherwise you have a high chance of soft or hardlock.
There are so many idiots working at Owlcat that they won't even test the critical path properly.

 

[Cryomancer]

Guys, since I don't like low level D&D, I always played in normal and only when got into lv 7, bumped the difficulty to hard and saw that I miss the unfair archivements, this time I decided to play since lv 1 as hard as an shadowcaster, if I drop from hard to core only the rest of chapter 1, will I lost the core only archivements?

Probably yes, although I don't see the point, the game isn't terribly difficult in act 1 if you know what you're doing (apart from literally 2 fights in act)

 

[Cryomancer]

Probably yes, although I don't see the point, the game isn't terribly difficult in act 1 if you know what you're doing (apart from literally 2 fights in act)

I play with 2~3 party members to get to lv 7 asap. And some fights mainly in the last location I had to try 4 times to beat.

-----------------------

Lowered the diff to core unlocked the shadow. I just din't understood exactly how the DC 18 save is calculated, what he rolls +20, if is my will save, if is my shadow will save(meaning that when he grows stronger, the likeliness to fail will decrease)

Can you translate that into Engrish?

Is retrying a fight for 4 times supposed to be a lot? Looks like someone hasn't played the Dark Souls games.....

If you need to basically cheat in order to finish the game in hard then I am not sure why you are trying to play the game in hard difficulty in the first place.

 

[Yosharian]

You could view it as cheating, another way of viewing it is using every tool the game gives you in order to gain an advantage - it's just another way of optimising. The game mode is called Unfair after all.

 

[IHaveHugeNick]

Nigga, you'd get faster to level 7 just by playing full squad like a normal person, instead of repeating every fight 8 times because you decided to roll with small party for no reason.

 

[Yosharian]

Probably yeah

 

[Cryomancer]

I did, the unique boss which gave me a lot of problems is capra demon and bed of chaos.

I don't need to re try many times any encounter. I only had to re try multiple times 4 fights in the first act. Phantasmal killer is great. And yes, still with 4 party members.

--------------------------

In Linux, running the game with proton, anyone knows the location of save game files? I wanna backup my save before choosing a mythic path.

Shadow Spells work well with Phantasmal Mage because Gnome gets extra DC and they counteract downside of Arcanist class by giving you more variety at your fingertips like a Wizard.

Update 2.2.3c

Hello, crusaders!
Update 2.2.3c is here, in which we again fixed the mechanics of the Winter Witch and Winter Child.

If you are playing with mods, don’t forget to update them before loading your saves!

Beware of possible plot spoilers below!

Classes & Mechanics

• When leveling up, the Hellknight could not select Pentamic Faith — fixed;
• In some locations, the terrain for Geomancer abilities and buffs was not taken into account correctly — fixed;
• Oracle curse progression was not calculating correctly and as described — fixed;
• Combining the Winter Witch and Winter Child spellbooks now works correctly;
• The levels of the Winter Witch are now added together with the levels of the Winter Child to determine the level of the Blizzard Servant;
• Winter Witch's Unearthly Cold ability also applies to the cold damage from Blizzard Servant's Whirlwind of Hail ability;
• The Winter Witch's Cold Specialization ability also increases the difficulty of the Blizzard Servant's Whirlwind of Hail saving throw.

Physical Rewards: December Update​

Greetings, Pathfinders!

We're here with another update about physical rewards. We haven't forgotten about them and are working tirelessly to organize delivery routes for all of your packages. Unfortunately, shipping of the next batches has been delayed and moved to the early months of the next year. The delay is due to both changes in delivery routes and the fact that the process will be put on hold a bit by the upcoming holidays.

We apologize for the inconvenience and will definitely be back with a new update after the Christmas holidays! We remain committed to delivering physical rewards to all of our backers, despite all the difficulties with logistics.

We thank you for your patience and are working hard to meet your expectations despite all the difficulties and delays.

Love, Owlcats
