Pathfinder Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous Pre-DLC Thread [GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Utgard-Loki]

It’s the plane of Chaotic Evil you phaggots. It is supposed to fuck with you.

holy mother of copes.

I accidentally clicked Quote and now I'm cursed with seeing that quote in my reply even if I use different computers.
Okay, I'll post a reply to this thread. Has anyone romanced Galfrey yet?

This is much better "asking for a friend" than asking for a friend.

On Hard/Unfair its actually a pain in the ass of a fight, as she casts Phantasmal Putrefaction Turn 2, and except for Camilla who is immune to sleep, and potentially your MC, none of your companions have saves high enough to resist it (I think on Hard the DC was 30 or 35, cant remember). She then proceeds to kill everyone while theyre flatflooted

Interesting. I played the prologue on Hard, but then lowered the difficulty to Core because I was running low on patience.

I seem to remember that she's level 28 or something, so a party of 7th-level adventurers really shouldn't stand a chance against her. When I fought her, I don't think she did anything except run around.

 

[Fedora Master]

Okay, Dirge Bard is a really bad class. Scare, Fright and a skeleton summon that only lasts as long as you play the bard song. Derp.

Why would you do that? I'd rather fuck the Fulsome Queen.

Hi, Lann!

 

[Saark]

Did you manage to use the machine with the prisoner girl to make the mind-defense circle?

I just looted everything and got outta there as quickly as I could. I might have missed that particular room as I only recall the Crusader Prisoner before Hundred-Faces, and I just killed that dude. I might go back before finishing Chapter 3 to see what I missed, but I honestly feel that Blackwater should simply be scrapped from the game. The Crusader Units you get are dogshit, theres no lore to the place beyond "we randomly found technology" and I hope that it doesn't play a role for the rest of the game.

The level itself isn't the issue, as even missing attacks will still get you the sonic damage from the Mythic Empowerment. The problem is that all the damage reduction in the world doesn't matter when your entire party is asleep while some Demoness screws you with 6-8attacks per hit.

I think the order of her casts is Wave of Exhaustion Turn 1, Phantasmal Putrefaction Turn 2, then she Dimension Doors, summons new adds (they spawn automatically when you bring her below 75% HP I think), then she casts some shitty Insect Armor Turn 3 and on the next turn she starts attacking with 8 attacks a turn. Your group is usually asleep by Turn 3, and oftentimes fully stunned by the Vrock in Turn 2, unless you get some lucky saves or manage to outrange it.

The Abyss in act 4 has a slight air of planescape about it in terms of the weirdness/alien feel of its denizens.

The navigation is a little headache inducing though.

 

[AwesomeButton]

Just done with the fight against Minagho in the Gray Garrison. It was one of the most confusing mess I've ever seen in a CRPG. So much shit happening all the time - demons appearing, demons dying, the eyeless bitch teleporting around... - that I could barely ever tell what was going on. Winning brought no satisfaction whatsoever.

I guess it's a deliberately super-easy fight meant to show that your PC is now MYHTIC!!1!, but honestly, even a Bioware cutscene would have been more enjoyable.

What difficulty did you play it at. I understand it was in RTwP

 

[Cryomancer]

i just use either scroll wizard , or cruomancer.

Only for me, a Lich Cruoromancer using blood infusions makes no sense? Would be cool if you could at late stages of lich opt to become a vampire instead.

Anyway, by picking my late ch 2 save and respecting and following the Azata path, and rushing a lot, reached today in ch 5 (beginning) and honestly, liked a lot the azata path.

You even fight a terrifying lawful outsider.

The enemy in hard difficulty

Floating islands, havoc dragon companion, is a amazing mythic path. The spells aren't as great as lich but you get a lot of party buffs.

 

[Lamiosa]

You get used to the city, just keep rotating the camera until you get the change you want. It was annoying to me too at first but now I like it a lot.

Not once you figure out how it works. Which is how normal people interact with the world instead of curling up in a ball and crying for your mommy.

Look before you leap. That’s it. Imagine where you want to go (click on the door) and the wall comes down to make it so.

Demons imagine the world revolves around them and their desires so their world does…

Desiderius has spoken, conversation is concluded. Carry on, posters.

 

[Non-Edgy Gamer]

i'd personally nuke russia if the first 10 levels of wrath used the xvart based encounter design of BG1

There's only one or two areas that use xvarts heavily in BG1. Both are optional. Most encounters are undead, gnolls, wild creatures and bandits.

If you read the abilities you get I think one of them is that they autofail saves so shouldn’t be too hard to take advantage of that. I just kill everything but Minagho and seems to work out.

Bone marrow infusions, even more powerful

 

[Sharpedge]

Ok, caught up on the past 169 pages. Catching up was definitely a mistake.

 

[Ghulgothas]

The return to the Crusades after Chapter 4 as a Lich is hilarious, especially if you've been playing up the evil. Three whole chapters of consistent villainy, the unholy resurrection of at least three people and the construction of An Evil Lair in the middle of the city, all done by a Commander who looks like this:

Spoiler

And all they can say is "Ugh, you're not the commander I remember!".

Core.

I intended to raise the difficulty back to Hard after Kenabres, but right now, I lack the motivation.

I just kill everything but Minagho and seems to work out.

I focused almost entirely on Minagho and things just worked out somehow. As I said, I could barely tell what was going on most of the time.

 

[LannTheStupid]

I would actually very much like a game made with this in mind. Having a player either as the creator or a helpless victim of some other's creation.

Yeah I’ve done the Hard and it’s ok as long as you bring Wolj to Garg cave (he’s immune to Smite Good) but it takes your full attention early game. I’m getting to about the point where I really should kick it up but going for the achievement so handicapping myself by avoiding anything too broken.

Duality is interesting with tinman since you really can’t use it in anything that could wipe you on a bad roll, but you want to get it in there somewhere each rest to get the scroll and EXP from killing the ones that turn on you.

On another news: our beloved Pope Amole II AKA Nerd Commando:
1. Removed his rant where he admitted hepling LNR terrorists;
2. His 3 last videos have only 360p resolution. No one told him this so far.

If anyone is interested I would advice downloading his videos by youtube-dl and watching them oiffline. I think he will have neither views nor ads this way.

 

[Saark]

Welp, this makes playing a blaster wizard with Heighten Spells pretty damn ridiculous. Haven't figured out yet exactly how it activates, but just casting a single Feast of Blood on 3 enemies empowered my next cast of it. But even 2 consecutive Exsanguinte casts both got the bonus as well, so it doesn't disappear after consuming it.

This is fine.
