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

I usually take that Vrock after the assault on the tavern. 1 level extra really helps. And I make sure to have a Bless spell ready for the aftermath.

 

[Reinhardt]

Didn't launched game in almost two weeks. I think it's safe to say at this point that maybe i will finish it someday if billion patches won't fuck my saves for good but i will never replay it. Game disappointed me on the most basic level. It's completely devoid of what i expected most from game about crusade and fighting against the overwhelming odds. You know - all this outdated shit - heroism, sacrifice. Instead we go shopping with shaneekwa and posing for sosiel. And that's why it's woke shit, not because of some tranny hugs.

Btw share strategies to deal with Playful Darkness on hard.

High ac and high DR tank helps, even better if he has some kind of self healing. (Lich melee ftw). Or you can use summons to trap him in that corridor.
Wrecking ray and other kind of stat reducing spell, touch spells attacks and positive energy are your friends in that fight.

 

[Gangrelrumbler]

Quick question, and it's really more of a rhetorical one:

Why won't Helrun step in and help me fight the vrock which is standing only about 50 feet from him and his two goons? I lead the thing back towards him hoping we can outnumber it and bring it down but he just stands there like an asshole while the vrock easily wipes out my entire party.

Please tag me with any replies, thanks.

I think the issue is that you're playing a game made by Owlcat and not Larian. There is also nothing wrong with your mouse, the barrels really cannot be moved.

That hole isn't going to guard itself, heretic!

Hah, I am replaying this part (again...) and thing is, the hole that Hurlun guards is not always empty:

Spoiler

If the corrupted mongrels from prologue were not cleansed by the Light of Heaven, Hurlun is standing there and slaughtering them when they are trying to reach the surface.

 

[Reinhardt]

You just butthurt because your inquisitor will never be your waifu.

Dont bother returning I gave up on this game not due to the bugs but due to the tedioum and retardo lvl story never coming back.

 

[Reinhardt]

I actually never encountered any really gamebreaking bugs. Most prominent was probably when Lann refused to equip bows after i kicked his butt in "romance unarmed sparring" so i just reloaded autosave,

Y no gamebreaking bugs but tons of abilities and spells not working properly and bugged items I can live with that the worse problem is the story that can put you to sleep and endless walls of text I wouldnt even mind the walls of text if the writing was good but nope it's bland at best somehow even feels worse than the "writing" in divinity games due too how long the each dialogue is.

 

[Mystary!]

Latest patch appears to have turned off the ability to autocast cantrips. Not gamebreaking but incredibly annoying...

How do you already have a large pet, that's like level 7 no ?

 

[Daidre]

How do you already have a large pet :O?

I am soloing Market Square and several other early locations in the chapter 1. Not viable or very hard with some MC builds, but anyone with a pet and/or creative use of consumables and high level scrolls from the scroll merchant (Summon Huge Elemental rocks) could get to lvl 7-8 without any issues.

Mind it, I've played ch1 so many times since the first beta, that now I am at the point of powergaming the shit out of otherwise pretty linear ch 1-2.

 

[volklore]

Ah I see, agressive soloing. Do you also reactivate party sharing just before you get a party member so they somewhat keep up ?

I reactivate it later in chapter 2 and the whole companion roster usually gets synchronized to a lvl 10 at the

Spoiler

White Chapel, where everyone get reattached to your party during attack. That's amazing!

Playing this way I hit lvl 11 in the Drezen.

Still, it is huge difference for ch1-2, but with the level gaps in Pathfinder xp table for levels above 10, 50-70k xp I hoarded early barely give me 1 lvl advantage starting from the ch3.

 

[Joggerino]

How do i respec my undead staunton?

You can’t.

Weirdly enough I managed to do it through hilor. Undead staunton wasn't on his list before but he is now, maybe it's one of the 1000 bugs of the game.

I have to correct myself, Hilor only allowed me to respec the last stauntons level which is retarded.

Holy shit I'm not the only one who thought that. I saw her and thought basically she is Mammy two shoes the paladin.

Doesn't respec mod allow to respec lich companions?

I've been thinking of starting a third playthrough, retrying my Winter Witch concept. The intent is to teach myself to play casters better. I also want to try and make the best melee and ranged striker builds I can, and go with a full custom party. If you don't level up from level 1 until you reach the tavern, mercs are said to cost 500 gold each.

Lvl 1 party against demons. Damn, you are brave if nothing else.

I have a plans to get one hard-hitting hireling to bodyguard my Wizard/Witch MC when going duo. There is around ~8-9k gold in prologue, so spending 8k on extra level 4 character is viable.

I'll try it out

 

[Nerevar]

A 2 hand fighter merc (evil) could be good with glaves. Seems to be good glaves all through the game and the +5 is very early.

Could even be cheesy and dump dex and do the scaled fist 1/Oracle 1 dip Hmmmm.

I only need to get past the tutorial dungeon, which I mostly do while being lvl 1 anyway actually I think they level up to lvl 2 in Mongrel Town. And the only character I must keep at lvl 1 is my MC. Who isn't all that useful anyway - being 1st or 2nd lvl Witch in the tutorial dungeon won't make much difference to the party's overall performance, or so I think.

Well, if you intend on hiring full level 1 party then I thought you are going to clean all ch1 with them, Market and everything. And I have no idea on whether or not they'd catch up to MC's xp in the same place in Chapter 2 as companion NPCs, need to check this one.

Hmm, good chances that they are, as it happened in similar situation in Kingmaker, when entering the Hate House.
