Starting over, I want to go Lich (preferable a martial/caster hybrid.).

Any recommendations for a Lich Martial hybrid class?

Go pure caster if lich. Merging spellbook is amazing. I suggest Thassilon specialist and Cruoromancer.
I don’t like playing pure casters.

I will commit the sacrilegious sin and say if you want to play a hybrid lich, go Sorc 9, Monk 1, Eldritch Knight 10.
Do you dip into monk once for the AC bonus stuff? Also, since necromancer is necro spells, are they generally useful against demons? As an EK, do I need to specialize in a certain weapon (aka look up what weapon I want to use) or just not take it and use any weapon I find?

Or just the 1 monk-sorcerer- 4 dragondisciple- 10 eldritchknight classic build. You are also merging the book, gaining ton of AC, can also melee with a staff so using lich buffs to its fullest. What are you losing ? A few spell slots compare to other builds , one CL.
If you really like minions, Cruomancer get a +4 bonus to hit on undead summons, that adds to the +6 you get to the lich path but you get it quite late. Thasilonian , i tried it it works but the two extra spell slots dont work with lich spells.
All valid choices but i think the sorcerer will have an easier time.

The spells Lich gets for melee are insane, and you can make the round/level buffs 24h long.

Go Sorc/Signifier/EK in some combination, Monk splash if above core. Vampiric Weapon + 4x Geniekind + Elemental Barrage for instance.

I wouldn't take anything which nerfs your CL too hard, big draw of Lich is you get higher level spells faster.

Hold the phone, I know nothing about pathfinder. Going to have to look up this shit.

You could put in 4 levels of dragon disciple in there.
Why 4 levels of dragon disciple?

Wouldn’t you need ascended element before elemental barrage? And why a hell knight signifier?

You dip in scaled fist monk for the charisma bonus , be sure and double check you have the monk subclass giving AC for your best stat. Lich specific spells are extremely good vs demons , as they bypass the spell resists, their resistance are quite absurd even if you stack up spell penetration and mythic feats . So exsanguinate, blood feast, negative eruption for distance. Vampiric blade when meleeing , bone shield . Also corrupt magic to debuff . In fact the lich spells are so good , regular necromancy spells pale compare to them so that makes thasilonian less interisting.Miniosn are good early , mid game, but late game not so much but that's only my opinion.
As for the wepaon you want quaterstaff as specialization, cause you can monk flurry with it.

Yes, you dip monk for the AC stuff. Generally you would want to go TWF to take full advantage of EK, so I would recommend something like rapiers or daggers. Note that building something like this is probably worse than just making a pure caster, but if you are doing it purely because you enjoy the idea of a martial - caster hybrid, then why not.

Probably better then magus, because magus book can't be merged, and well duh, charisma is good for lich. I wonder how it behaves with attack of opportunity. As magus I don't think my mc encountered any... Plus spell strike is kinda nice.

Fuck that encounter at the Shrine of the Three. It forces you to go into TB mode for the fight (which I'm guessing that it's not a bug since you have to click on quite a few interactables in order to stop enemies from infinitely spawning).

Yea I think this is supposed to be some kind of eastern egg? I just don't know what it would refer to this fight took me 20 minutes :negative:

Definitely not a bug. I think this was the Codex quest so it fits perfectly.

Come on, guys. Desiderius has been dead for less than a day and you're already shitting and pissing on his grave suggesting the monk/dragon disciple dip. A bit too disrespectful, don't you think?

Codex quest only allowing TB mode sounds quite prestigious, if you ask me.

That's Codex content for you :D Just pick some hasted character for clicking business. I used fully buffed Aru and she didn't have any problems. Also mass teleport wand is useful in that fight, if you still have it.

Why would you go Sorc 9?
Because I forgot that lich's merged spellbook would get you level 9 spells without going sorc 9. You could probably take more monk levels if you really wished to, or hellknight signifier levels.

Going to the ivory sanctum, Greybor

meets me there and says he was hired to kill me, and if I don't hire him instead he will. Like dude, you're level 0, and have you not seen that there's 6 of us in fancy magical gear, a giant undead velociraptor, etc etc?
