Finally decided to respec and respec is broken. It lets you pick feats and then they disappear. Next level up you get offered the same one.

I had this problem with a single feat: Combat Expertise

Damn, how did you get him to 80 Str? Not even Mythic Companion gives so much bonus...
Animal Growth?

Brown Fur Transmuter and the gauntlets that add an untyped +6 strength at the risk of the dog going apeshit (and most likely killing one of your guys) at the start of a fight. Don't need to worry about that though now that his will save is over the required amount. Of course the mythic bonus is there too.

Also, I could have gotten it up 4 more points if I had found the profane strength helmet in chapter 4 :negative:

Finally, beat this, damn the final map was garbage. Seems like Owlcat is contractually obligated to make you hate the endgame.

The first trashmob encounters were almost impossible to me, but then the moment I face some named bosses I cut through them like butter. I was playing Legend and I had the likes of Mephisto aiding me at the end. Well the cunts start to run like headless chickens the moment a generic centaur demon thing vomits on them.
Goddamit did that part ruin the experience for me.

The last battle was crazy and overdone.
I find this interesting because it doesn't match my experience fighting Areelu at all.

I expected some massive pain in the ass when I saw she has 90 AC and teleports all over, but after 3 vital strikes and a couple of polar rays, fight was over. She managed to cast one, maybe two spells and I saw no copies.

Thing is, up until the battle I had done everything necessary to unlock the secret ending. Wonder if that somehow influences how hard the fight is? :?
It doesn't, my experience with the final fight is that it has always been a pushover.

Supposedly the fight got buffed in the last patch.

Also, completely unrelated, evidently weird things happen if you put a medium sized person on a huge (as in, animal growthed) horse.

Can't decide if this is better or worse to the cluster fuck that is giving Arue an animal companion and trying to mount it.

That camp battle was fucked up, they give you no time to prepare, I had to fight everyone unbuffed with left over companions that had subpar gear. Ember and Nenio won the fight for me, both had Ascendand element Fire. Also a lucky mass ice prison helped

Maybe, what you describe is very different than what I had.

Also they fucked up melee big time by not having mythic charge work like barbarian pounce, even epic level feats in 3.5e had epic charge let you do that. Only thing saving melee is that some important fights are made around fucking up ranged weapons. Also I am glad I took blind fighting with everyone that was melee as you get blinded or fight invisible enemies all the time.

That last camp battle is weird. I left 6 companions behind but for some reason Sosiel refused to fight in my party.
I didn't use blind fighting since 24hr true seeing is in plentiful supply this time, didn't get blinded that often either.

"the max hp of a cR 4 monster is around 76... For the thousand times there's no hp bloat with 5E, but at this point i know almost nothing will convince you except something like some china reeducation camp for years ."

76 hp at level/cr 4 is a fukkin' lot.

A barbarian with 20 con at level 4 with the generous hp bonus feat has a max of 72hp. LMAO

But, according to you, 76hp isn't 'a lot'.

FUKK OFF WITH YOUR ATTEMPTED GASLIGHTING.




"Good job devs, in a game with Demons the most disgusting living creature is"

Camilla. You don't need to censor it. Everyone knows it is true. FFS The eyeless demon can actually feel 'love' for another living creature. L0LZ
76 is the max you can get, not the max for every cr 4 creatures, then have a look at the amount of damage an avenger paladin with smite will do... Have a look at the system and book before insulting people combat last only a few rounds . last time i answer , you and Meredoth are completely dishonest about it.

I looked at the system. Bottom line you are full of shit. But, that's expected. It is the Codex, after all.

You'll need Echolocation against some abilities/effects, too.

MOTHERFUCKER is your fucking keyboard broken?

How the fuck do you just space before and after a period, and the same for commas? Is your autism trying to fix fanta's lack of spaces?

You trigger me so much with those fucking cuck tiny quirks of yours, but then you start talking numbers. LOL

Also, in English we capitalize the I, motherfucker. Are your fingers broken?

It is really downhill after starrt of act 5. They seem to gave up after maintaining game 4 acts.

Sosiel refused to fight in my party.

He's probably still painting.
Same thing happened to me but in my case Regill went rogue and died after killing one demon (I think it is something to do with number of characters you can control or something).

What I found most irritating is how all NPCs are completely useless, unlike enemy AI they got none. They get no precast buffs, not multiple spells per turn and 0 sense. The powerful necro chick I allied with casts like two spells and then tries to use her Scythe without buffs.. and the priest of Abadar dude just plinks away with his crossbow with his +13 attack lol.

OK I finally finished the game on core difficulty with a Lich. I've done whole Threshold and what happens after with only one rest. The last battle was crazy and overdone.
Areelu has like 5000 HP with all the automatic heals and then that shit with 3 copies where each has 70 armor, wtf is that. . In the end I could not kill a single of the copies, and all my characters died except the Lich in the battle vs those 3 lol. I suppose you are meant to kill all 3 copies before Areelu dies so you don't need to sacrifice yourself but they overdid the battle. I don't remember any previous BG like game with such crazy overdid last battle.
Luckily Lich can sacrifice his thingy with part of his soul so he gets the "good" end.
Had a similiar expirience on hard, i had to kite that Treshhold guardian all over map. Areelu was knocked out by empowered sirroco and was a pushover. She didnt even cast those copies. I'm on a lich run now and i'm using turn based much more. I finally see all those charge bugs everyone is talking about, vodka coding stronk. As a melee trickster i turned turn based once or twice, buffs and charge we're enough most of the time.

I really hate some aspects of the story/setting. I'm gonna start calling it... "Dragon Age 2 Syndrome", or maybe... "Kirkwall Asylum Syndrome"...?
Anyway, "Cockwall Asylum Syndrome" is when the world presented to you has so many cultists, blood mages, lunatics, et cetera, that it violates the suspension of disbelief. No civilization could function with this amount of insane people.
When I think of demonic cults I think about rather niche activity for truly depraved individuals. In WotR Baphomet cults is something... disgruntled construction workers join.

Copy things happen after you beat her the first time when she heals herself like 5 times 800+ life every time. You talk to her and if you choose to not be part of her plan or something she decides to screw you by killing herself. She spawns copies that are harder than her first form and then she does damage to herself every turn. She needs about 10 turns to die. I suppose you are supposed to kill the 3 copies in that time but good luck doing that, I think you need some really broken builds for that

Damn, my Regill after last level up (and multiclassing to Freebooter Ranger), seems to have lost his Finesse Training Dex to damage.
And just after his damage finally became nice with that Axiomatic Hook Hammer.

Considering the war and chaos scenario, the fact that the Wound would gather all Golarion cultists, I do not find it hard to believe the amount of cultists present.
