MAking a kineticist merc worth? I know that in kingmaker, kineticists are godlike. How they are in this game?

Kineticist still really fucking strong but they struggle midgame, where they neither have Deadly earth and their blasts struggle to pass SR and they don't have a lot of spell penetration.

Guys, how I can recruit Kestoglyr? I reached ch 4 now and am looking into the mines and no clue.

Either do battle with the dragon in that storybook segment so Colyphyr will be alerted to your presence beforehand, or allow them to capture you.

Do it, load a save, anything. Kestoglyr is a champion unparalleled in dual-weapon combat.

Thanks a lot. I really need more melee undead servants. But how I can find that dragon to do the battle?

It's the last segment of that CYOA bit when you're flying en-route; something-something about doing battle. Dunno what exactly the input is, but he'll be to the left around the prison cells if it worked out.

How did you guys build Staunton? 20 levels warpriest?

How did you guys build Staunton? 20 levels warpriest?

What level do you get him again? If it's early enough then you might be able to cram a few useful cleric levels in there but I'm not enough of a buildfag to offer any substantial advice here. All I can tell you is that lvl20 warpriest did not work out for me because warpriest is ass.

 

[ga♥]

You get him at level 10 but mixing Cleric with Warpriest seems utterly horrible, as in mixing casting classes (unless the CL gets added up, but I don't think it does...?). Why cleric anyway? He has shitty wisdom

 

[Humbaba]

His shitty wisdom is also why he's a shitty warpriest but you need someone to heal your zombies, aside from yourself maybe.

Kineticist still really fucking strong but they struggle midgame, where they neither have Deadly earth and their blasts struggle to pass SR and they don't have a lot of spell penetration.

Kineticists do very solid guaranteed damage with deadly earth/cloud (with no saves or attack rolls). They will never do amazing damage (200 damage per turn, every turn guaranteed is good, but it's not great). But they will also just have solid output every turn, and never run out of juice.

I don't think other kineticists are good, they don't really get enough +ab to hit stuff, especially with only one attack per round. I guess blue flame kineticist might be able to hit stuff since it's a touch attack, but it also has to contend with spell resist until level 19(-+1).

So yeah, kineticist is good, but make sure your elemental picks are earth/fire/fire or fire/earth/fire, taking deadly earth at level 12, and obviously mythic fire so you can ignore DR.

The Camellia reveal you get in Dresden was absolutely hilarious. It made me actually feel uncomfortable. Like when you for some reason said hi to the really really weird guy back in school and suddenly he thinks you are best pals and follow you around everywhere.

 

[ga♥]

I was hoping I could go full undead with lich, but seems Staunton and Ciar suck balls

Sorry about that.

When I merge spellbooks with Lich as Sorceror, do I get to select new 5th level spells (right now my max is 4th as a lvl 9 Sorcerer) as soon as that happens?

I thought one of the main reasons for merging spellbooks (other than higher caster level) was getting access to higher levels for spells earlier? but as a spontaneous caster I would have to select those to actually be able to cast them.

 

[Haplo]

Not sure. But you do get all the Mythic path Spells.

I believe that yes, but only for lich spells of 5/6th level. Never played this game as a spontaneous caster.

The way merging spellbooks works is that you get to pick spells for the last level in the merge.
So if you were a level 8 sorc, you will merge to 11, and get to pick spells as if you had leveled from sorc10 to sorc11. The spell picks from level 9 and 10 are lost (but you'll get more spell picks than a regular sorc in total, since you can keep picking spells beyond CL 20).

You also automatically get all the mythic path's spells added to your spellbook for free.

Imo they overdid it with her. It is extremely hard to justify keeping her around after that for any PC who is not CE.

She is beautiful, helpful, and she kills people. What else to wish for a good waifu?

How did you guys build Staunton? 20 levels warpriest?

I gave him fighter levels for weapon training polearm and dex-to-AB for glaives.

High floor, low ceiling in this game.
They end up being not as strong as the other broken stuff you could be doing with mythic abilities, like proccing Elemental Barrage multiple times per hit on every attack per turn. There are a couple hilarious infinite combos for melee-kin like Demon's Aspect of the Kalavakus + a combat maneuver infusion.
I think a run where you just make everyone into an AoE kineticist would be viable. Just kite enemies into a stack and have everyone blast it, or start fights with 4 churning earths, which still hits twice on the first cast. That has to be a bug.

Fire blaster kineticist (ele engine) trickster MC critting something mid-game:

Energy blasts targeting touch AC is really nice if you can get past the spell res.

Which mythic path? Azata? Trickster?

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

Fuck. I played a eternity. Is my third run of the game that I've killed Playful darkness in core and no archivement...

Screenshots of I fighting him in my third run

And a video of I defeating him;






I just wanna my achievement.

Playful Darkness has 60 AC on core?

94 AC on unfair

 

[Whisper]

Does Aeon bane and Magus bane stack? Or you cant use both at same time?
