Monster Summoner is pretty crazy. You get a bunch of free casts of top-level monster summonings, but as standard action casts instead of full round, and minutes-long durations instead of a few rounds. I've been playing a glaive wielder to hide in the back while a pack of wolves or whatever tears poo poo up. Teamwork feats for your summons is good too, Outflank for everyone.

Getting some bugs that ain't that bad, disapearing Hellknights and Golems that were hanging around in the city, to really bad stuff like having Almiri in the party but no, you can't do her 3rd companion quest. Unless there's a second 6 Bears Camp?

I tried that stealth section with Amari a few times, I've learned to accept failure. Edit: Whoa poo poo is that section buggy as hell, not only didn't I have that Lander as an adviser, I certainly didn't kill him... turns out people also die when they're rescued, wacky!

So a Crag Linnorm... as a pathfinder noob, at level 6 I should just back away slowly, get out of range, and run screaming as soon as safe, right?

You could always try to get Linzi or somebody with stealth to bilbo its hoard out from under its nose as a temp gently caress you before you come back a few levels from now

Incidentally, in addition to everything else nasty about it (it's theoretically a good encounter for a lvl 14 party), Linnorms have Regeneration... that's only turned off by cold iron. Hope you actually checked a shop and picked up one of those weapons!

Candlekeep Tower. Man this was a bitch at level six. Communal resist energy is a requirement, and you don't have communal protection from energy yet. And then the boss just spams magic missile (murdering Linzie). Oh bring lots of glitterdust too. Oh, are wisps immune to alchemist stuff? They are immune to everything except magic missile spell-wise at least - do alchemist bombs count as such? If they do, then bring the rear end in a top hat gnome.

At that point Resist Energy jumps to resist 20, which blocks virtually all of their damage outside crits. There's also so many of them that I really would not recommend relying on Protection from Energy, as they'll burn through it in no time.

Lord Koth posted:Yes, yes you should. I kill his bitch-rear end at Level 9. Bring Protection From Elements: Fire, and pull him with your "tank" like an MMO, by himself, and with the breath weapon hopefully away from others. There is some thorn entanglement spell that Clerics get that was nice because it does damage as if it was Cold Iron, otherwise I think only 2 people had Cold Iron weapons. I wish the game had more "Oh gently caress I can't fight that yet" things hidden around, I enjoyed waiting for when I thought I could jump him and live. To anyone that hasn't sperged out on D&D, the CR system is designed to say, this creature at this level is designed to take x amount of resources from the party in an adventuring day, I want to say it was 20%. This also can be really inaccurate when you have things like Will o the Wisps that are supposed to just play with their food and not go full rambo on your rear end like they do in this game. d20pfsrd is a good site to try and look at when a monster is doing weird poo poo you don't understand.

malhavok posted:The lack of armor would point you towards theurge, but the class itself is already supposed to be something of a healing sorcerer as it is. Specially since i believe his main domain is fire. I actually think the Devs hosed up and made his main domain Good, which is mostly Cleric spells already and entirely defeats the loving point of the Ecclei-whatever ability of your main doman being able to go in your regular prepped spots. If he had picked Fire, you could load him up with Fireballs. That said, I've kind of ignored him, especially after I forgot that he was never allowed to cast spells in armor and gave him a Fighter level for Armor Profs, whoops.

It's useless as a comparison in Kingmaker, because even if it was accurate in the tabletop, literally everything is at least +3 CR compared to the tabletop anyway on anything past Easy.

Freaking 5gb patch! Have they put everything in a few massive files so you have to redownload them over and over for every single little change or something?quote:Valerie's quest ability "Valorous" provided Strength and Constitution bonuses instead of Strength and Charisma. Resolution: "Valorous" ability provides Strength and Charisma, as per description.

I mean, Paladins actually do use Charisma for a bunch of things, right? Assuming it has that in common with regular D&D.

Here's my level 7 strategy for beating that thing: cast every defensive buff you can on Ekun's and anyone else's pets, you should be able to get their AC to around 40 at your level assuming you have Jubilost and he's got the ability to affect other characters with his infusions(shield, barkskin) have the pets tank with energy resistance fire on, Tristian heals them at a distance. With haste and other offensive buffs you ought to be able to take it down.

Avalerion posted:Can’t just make Valerie a paladin? Or another charisma using class maybe? She's not LG, so she can't be a paladin. I guess you could make her a scaled fist monk or something and just completely ignore her fighter-ness. You can also get Cornugon Smash and Dreadful Carnage to let her use her charisma for something, at least.

Cynic Jester posted:Yepp. But she is aggressively not a paladin. I mean she acts like one and has the stats of one, but bring up her paladinity and she flips. Nah, she doesn't remotely act like a paladin, even accounting for this game's aggressively kill-happy interpretation of Lawful Good. She very much acts Lawful, and Lawful alone (outside venturing into Lawful Stupid on multiple occasions - though I do find it funny her Int score actually backs this up). Like, I can think of at least one occasion just off the top of my head where following her suggestions are actually the evil things to do The Goblin Fort - she suggests waiting multiple times on that map while the gobbos do horrible things to captives.

I haven't played around with her very much, or the game at all - I'm waiting for some patches before I really dig in - but that sounds as reasonable as scaled fist monk. But I wouldn't do it, because I want to play the magus.
