Do I get anything from wiping out the flesh market aside from framerate issues?

Americans and their knowledge of history.

"Crusades are each of a series of medieval military expeditions made by Europeans to recover the Holy Land from the Muslims in the 11th, 12th, and 13th centuries." Full stop. That's what I think when I see the word "crusade", and that's what he thinks as well.

All the Russian wars have never been crusades, however in the last battles against the Golden Horde in XV century they for sure used some firearms.
Never call me American ever again or I will get very upset and cry maybe even.

Yes, which is undoubtedly the result of western cultural influence. How else would a nation that by your own admission has never been on a "crusade" come to make the connection between that word and a series of wars it had nothing to do with? The crusades are a central element of western identity not eastern. Besides, let's not pretend that the wars against the Tatars had no religious connotations and motivations like the crusades.

The first one is very cringe but the second one is actually quite funny "Their only regret is that they weren't born drow" lmao. The duality of Owlcat.

Trickster seems to be the wild wasteland path. Gonna be a REAL shift in tone when I switch to Swarm.

Is switching from merged spellbook to legend just completely busted? You get to keep all your mythic spells, and since you're legend you can go to CL 40 instead of 30. You even get the level 10 spells (I don't, cause I am an arcanist and it's bugged, but if you were a wizard...). Save or die spell that deals 400 damage even if make the dc 50 save? Seems pretty good.

As Lich I also got to keep my skeleton and zombie generation in crusade mode. Feels like having your cake and eating it too.

20 base class, 10 signifier, 10 loremaster? I think signifier has full progression, but I could be wrong and then you'd only be able to reach 39, but that's still quite a bit better than 30.
CL is caster level of course.
Making assumptions on how mechanics work past level 20 is a very dangerous game. It's all homebrewed by Owlcat, so those last 10 Loremaster levels have:
- a 33% of doing nothing
- a 33% chance of actually increasing your CL
- a 33% chance of breaking your save in a funny way
- a 1% chance of killing you IRL

That's not really how it works
Why wouldn't it be?

CL is CL!

Apparently there is a softcap in CL = 28 for Legend. Also, most spells will not scale that high. Polar Ray for eg, scales up to caster level = 25.

Well yeah, afaik most spells don't even scale to CL 20, let alone beyond. But mythic path spells tend to scale to any CL, and you do get to keep them as legend if you merged spellbook. Weird that they'd softcap it to higher than 20.

If I play as a Lich cruoromancer -> Legend Cruoromancer, I keep all lich spells? Amazing. What I keep and what I lost if I go legend?

You lose everything from mythic level 3 and up. So all those abilities, mythic feats, etc. Companions stay at mythic 8, and I'm pretty sure they can't advance beyond it. So essentially, the only thing you keep are the lich spells and some stuff in crusade mode.

Starting to question the use of power attack in bossfights. But then again those are usually carried by Ember Ignusova, her dispelling prowess and hellfire railgun anyway.

Trever is not really useable. He does his job ok but you are better off with pretty much anyone else. He is oddly slow, his damage output is not exceptional and neither is his tankiness. If he had fewer levels by the time you find him you could salvage him even with his wasted paladin and hellknight levels but whatever.

Thanks. A lot of lich spells don't seem to have a caster level cap, so if they ever fix the cl = 28, I will be able to cast spells with CL = 40? Imagine ice prison, mass with a strength check DC to break free of 57(specialization + 40 + 15), domain of the hungry flesh with BAB = 40...

I've been wondering recently as to how they're gonna handle all those different endings when moving on to the DLC campaign. Sure, they're gonna funnel down into the same basic beginning but I'm excited to find out how they're going to do that, especially since you can an hero yourself or ascend. Maybe they're just gonna be lazy and retcon all endings but one. Whatever the case, we all know already how the DLC campaign is gonna end. Or why do you think the PC is just hanging out next to Pharasma?

A good example is Whiterun for PoE. They may do it the similar way.
