So i did the final Trickster fight

an hour it took me now granted half of that was me refusing to rest properly because i got super close like 3-4 times as in winning but poison killing main char, playing on core but i can't imagine just stumbling across this fight not optimized at all, funnily enough i won with only seelah and regil making their saves 42dc fort or 3 mins of frozen and an aoe that stops all spells that increase fort saves seems great, seelah had brilliant plus 5 scythe with some 18-20 crit and crusaders edge got some lucky hits and finished it quick with zero deaths, regil teaching moment is i can't imagine doing it without that for two rolls for the save

Hot take, maybe 10 lines of dialog and no auto save before a boss fight starts is bad maybe?

I'm so touched I wrote a beautiful love song for my blue waifu:

We're gonna be together
spidercat lady... ♪
Together forever
spidercat lady... ♪

I make YOUR heart so SOFT
with MY dick so HARD
Long legs are my fetish
so I'm singing like a bard

Forever...
Spidercat lady... ♪

I'm not sure I'm satisfied with the "Long legs are my fetish" verse. It's too subtle.
Maybe I should go for something like "I'm a leg man (and you have eight of them)".
Or maybe I should focus on Daddy Long Legs pun - "You like to call me daddy, long legs are my thing".
It sort of work both ways now, but only for high IQ people.

Lann dies on me because of his stupid plan to Leeory Jenkins a demon, I googled and it seems you need to make Lann chieftain in Act 4 to survive the encounter, but it never came up for me at all, I got the quest for his mother but where the fuck it happens to make Lann a Chieftain in act 4
Is this game in purpose fucking up my damage dealers in purpose

I had the same issue/bug in my last playthrough. Had to resort to ToyBox (I didn't have the willpower to go back to Act 3, when it's supposed to happen) and all played well. It was strange, because in all my subsequent playthroughs that was never an issue and I had this questline somewhere in the beggining of Act 3.

Tl;dr: Act 4 or 5 is too late, you can't change it ingame aside of using toybox.

Just finished The Enigma, Seriously fuck whoever designed this map I spent almost an hour to find 7th blue essence and because I found one behind a hidden wall it made me paranoid and had to sweep the entire map to find the last blue thingy, turns out it was in forbidden chamber, I didn't notice it.
Still fuck this shit and fuck me for trying to solve all puzzles by myself, I spent like 4 hours or more in this map.

That what I'm planning to do, I actually manually saved before the end of each act, I reload one in act 3 and tried to talk to Saul and Lann, nothing triggered or happened even with skipping multiple days so it seems it is bugged even though I mad lann makeup with his mother so I guess is just bad luck.

Can someone please explain. Not only my character, I kid you not, rng'ed 3-5 for six times in a row(!?) for an attack roll, and the three Shadows I've fought rolled 17-19 all the time, but this? Shadow has no DR. I've a magical weapon equipped. 1d10+5 ... 3 dmg... I don't get it. Also I really didn't miss this about the game :( however good it is in other regards.

Get Finnean from the ruined shop. It can morph into any weapon and has Ghost Touch.
Very handy against such enemies.

1. Reading is hard.
2. Camellia has Ghost Touch enhancement from the start. And, I believe, the enchanted weapon can be passed to another party member.
3. The game gives everything to play, but people refuse to use it.

Or just Magic Missile them to death, that also works. And they do full damage.

I am currently doing Act 4 in my Angel run and I am surprised by all the extra stuff so far compared to my Lich run.
All the paladins and angels you save that join you there and help you fight is pretty cool. Your Nexus fills up with them and people you save. I got 5 so far: old paladin, saved paladin, saved priest and 2 angels. I hope at least one of those gets to join my party as a full companion.

So far Both Angel and Lich runs seem to add a lot of cool unique content, which other paths are like that? Azata, Aeon, Demon? I doubt later paths like Devil, Swarm or Gold Dragon have a lot of content.

As far as extra abilities and spells for Lich or Angel path, Lich is more interesting. At least for full caster with merged spellbook. Lich offensive spells are extremely powerful and defensive spells as well. Lich special abilities are also very good and you get a free extra undead companion.
Angel passive abilities are kind of meh so far, a bit more AC and enemies get -1 to saves vs your spells and -3 to their max SR. Holy sword thing is also a standard action to activate and only gives bonus to spells while it is active (which is 1 minute per level and cannot be extended only few times per day if you took that ability, other sword options are worse at that point because duration stays at 1 minute 3 times per day LOL) in first 4 Acts (when it matters). Also its bonuses does not stack with Holy of weapon you are using making it even less useful. They should have made it do Force damage and stack.

Sword bonuses can be made 24 hour with Greater Enduring Spells and Everlasting Flame once you're Mythic Rank 5. Of course that'd mean the sword buff itself does little, so maybe better to pick something else for your first Sword upgrade and wait with Everlasting till Mythic Rank 6. Still I think that's Act 4?

A little bonus holy damage is kinda meh, I agree, but doing +50% (!) damage vs a large group of demons is not. Maybe it even works for spells? You'd need to check.

I only got one sword upgrade by Mythic 5 so I picked 1 minute per level because that is more useful. Had to switch to non Holy weapon so I can get something from this thing. Still bad compared to Lich options, even for melee.
My melee Lich does extra unholy damage with each swing that heals him and has permanently 10/- DR that also reduces enemy attack if they manage to hit him. And that is Act 3 guy. When I get aura that buffs all my stats and +2 to CL for everyone. Not to mention Undead immunities that last 10 min/level and ability that makes me not be able to die but just get paralyzed. And full heal for all undead in party lol. And even as non caster I can use lich offensive spells that ignore SR and heal you while damaging enemies in large AoE.

Is it, though? Having a small boost all the time versus having a huge boost often when you need it? That was the decision I was facing and I have chosen differently.
Of course, by Mythic Rank 6 it won't matter anymore.

If it is like a Lich run next Mythic level is when you mean Noticula and she offers you to accept part of her power. I said yes as Lich and got a Mythic level. As Angel I will not be accepting it. After than next one was at start of Act 5 when it does not matter anymore much as there is little content left and most of it is easy.
