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

Gargoyles are extremely resilient and can fly. Taking them down with the available troops (archers, footmen, hellknights in my case) takes AGES.

That's how gargoyles are in HoMM-3. Also, their damage is quite low - again, as in HoMM. So I would say this is a faithful implementation.

Main thing that makes them dangerous is Smite Good. Kotex immune to that shit.

 

[Lacrymas]

I'm sure of that, but the problem is that you don't know this unless you take her with you. Why would you do this, however? She

My character will be taking her because she is a cat-spider girl with all other amazing qualities you listed. And then it's up to him / me to be worthy of her.

Why, though? That effectively makes her your master and you prostrate yourself to her. What kind of character do you have to be in order to do this? Very psychologically and emotionally damaged at least.

 

[Cryomancer]

No shit summons are overpowered, as standard actions you can SHIT them everywhere.

Imagine when you see the high level lich spells. AoE harm, Domain of the Hungry flesh which is a black tentacles + sirroco with attribute damage, create undead creates a skeleton warrior which dishes 40 damage per attack and has like 130 hp(...)

Very psychologically and emotionally damaged at least.

Very wise, too. Apparenbtly, demons need high will saves to be efficient.

I like this combination.

You guys see anything related to that 'Doubled Reactivity' stretch-goal yet? So far my Dhampromancer has gotten extra dialogue from the Act 1 Barkeep, and a Moth keeps showing up during dialogue sessions related to the early Lich path. I think that's due to my choice of patron god.

Double from 0 is still 0, son. I'm playing a cleric of Iomedae and nobody has said anything yet.

Any reason to finish P:K before starting this? Is it connected to first game or are they separate story?

Only one: when you finish Kingmaker WotR will be fully patched.

And no, they are connected only by the same planet and Universe.

If you play Trickster there are some gems here and there. Otherwise, no.

 

[Generic-Giant-Spider]

You heard here first, folks. A spider misses an elf. Betcha Owlcat can't be this progressive.

What!

Balls, brudda, BALLS. You think elf boy is there going all James Blunt over this:

Then he laments it can never be a thing... guess he'll have to settle for one of his own elven kind...

Aww, little manlet boy sure has MY fucking sympathy. Poor little fuckboy ain't gonna know the joys of illogical cross-species sex and post-coitus death. Sooo sad. Everyone cry.

No Kingmakers endgame is absolute shit. Just play this one, gameplay is far superior.

 

[fantadomat]

Fuck,wintersun have some hard battles,a lot of hard enemies,also those spectres suck arse!


PS:It is fucking fun

 

[Non-Edgy Gamer]

I mean, where are guys like Kheldorn, Anomen, Durance, Harrim, Valerie, Aribeth and so forth? Nobody wants to fight demons for religious reasons or to help people? You could switch the cast of characters with any party-based RPG at random and the companions would fit the game better.

More importantly, why does the player want to fight the demons? Especially if they're not the hero type?

 

[fantadomat]

The game throws so many healing potions at you, I'm just chugging them like at a buffet. Iirc, it was the same in Kangmaker.

Yeah they are the main heal thing until your atheistic degenerate priests get good channelling going lol.


By the way,does anyone know any way to get less seconds between attacks? That weird faceless bitch demon really fucked me up with that instant attack shit. Does anyone know what skill/feat she used for it ?

 

[Grotesque]

is there anyone who killed the large water elemental in melee on hard difficulty?

 

[fantadomat]

Seriously.

SERIOUSLY.

Please someone tell me I'm not the only one with this issue with the Crusader Army battles.

Many of the early low level demon armies have gargoyles in them. About ~30. Gargoyles are extremely resilient and can fly. Taking them down with the available troops (archers, footmen, hellknights in my case) takes AGES. There is no tactic or trick or weakness I could use to speed this up. I can't even LOSE the battle if I just keep clicking attack for 10 minutes straight because they can't really damage by units either. And to add insult to injury, you usually get all the troops back as long as the stack itself survives.

They are not bad....but there is a lot of work to be done. Like being able to see units's stats,knowing what will you get from the council choices. You should always save before making them,i got a bunch of champions which feel worst than the recruits i got before lol. Same goes for the generals,being able to see their progression and skills would be nice. Fighting enemies i have noticed that magic is very op,tho i don't have a single general that could actually do something remotely useful. I just fought some dude that was killing like 100 of me archers with a single spell,lol broken.

The heal potion spam is a consequence of the RTwP combat imo. They feel the need to have a combat encounter in every room, so you are obviously going to get damaged at one point. But since you are level 2, you don't have much character-based healing available and the healing potions basically become a necessity, especially if you aren't a cleric yourself. I can't imagine giving out 30+ healing potions in a single dungeon in tabletop.

One more conclusion about the labyrinth/whole prologue - I see it getting very tedious and annoying on subsequent playthroughs, I hope someone makes a mod to skip it. That's a shame really. Pointlessly big for what it is, a tutorial with 2 good (well, good isn't the right word, more like demanding attention) fights in it. You can remove 80% of the fights and it will be an improvement. This would be a nightmare in TB mode. Forget minorities and women, this is the real problem right here. The prologue could've been much better. Make the mongrel base a quest hub, get more side quests in there, more exploration of mushroom caves and less of basements, more character development for Lann and Wenduag (especially with her ...personality flaws), etc.

Yea?

 

[AwesomeButton]

Ok, I'm second floor in Gwerm's house, how the hell do I protect from the sneak attack, it usually oneshots my fighters or gets me close to zero health.

OWLCAT FOR CHRIST'S SAKE I'M ONLY LEVEL 7!

 

[Cryomancer]

OMG, Chapter 4 ending is just too insane. I strugled and almost ran out of spells in a single boss and when defeated him

A freaking...

DEMON LORD CALLED BAPHOMET APPEARS and I had no high level spells, no health, nothing...

Now the encounter becomes how to kill terryfying boss followed by another, I'm playing in custom, with enlarged enemies, enemies slight powerful and custom behaviors for enemies. I'm even considering lowering difficulty. The first "boss" was a constant reload till I will initiative cuz if not, one of his henchmann will sirroco me to the ground.

You can now play PK being reasonably sure it's a complete and finished game, while waiting for another two years until they fix this one and stop milking it with DLCs.

That's either a very fucked up random encounter or you just skipped a fuckton of content if you're just level 7 and fighting that.

Post pics, I wanna see a Lich fight the fucker :D

I think it was supposed to be a downscaled enemy? I did defeat it with some effort.
