Things you Absolutely Fucking Need:
- Someone with high stealth to get around annoying overland encounters
- Poison and Disease Reistances AND negative energy protection (Really, same deal as with Kingmaker)
- Damange types that aren't fire, because demons dont care about fire

Guys, I don't recommend multi classing Seelah as the Campaign has all evil enemies.

Bards are cool and all but Paladins are custom made for this.
Yeah I'll just keep her as a full Paladin. Not a fan of her character though.

Just think of her like John McClane’s sidekick in Die Hard. There are black women like that, they just don’t belong in a Medieval fantasy setting. The backward Slav behind the curve as usual.

OK the talking weapon actually has voice acting, it's just there is none during your first interaction with him. Should be a bug.

So I made a list with the books that I have found so far that grant bonuses for anyone that is interested:
Act 1:
  • Tome of the Minotaur: Sermons from the Labyrinth - +1 bonus to attack and damage by Glaive as if the affected creature had weapon training with Glaive.
  • Terendelev, the Guardian of Kenabres - +1 morale bonus to AC against Dragons.
  • Temples of Iomedae: Father Lorian's Guide for Neophytes - +1 shield bonus to AC against Demons.
  • The Keen Edge of Truth: Recollections and Admonitions of an Inquisitor of Asmodeus - +1 competence bonus on saving throws against Swarms.
Act 2 (Found all of them in the Lost Chapel the place that unlocks if you took the Zacharius's wand)
  • Zacharius, "Toward of Eternity" - +1 competence to DC on a spell with death descriptor.
  • The History of the Worldwound - +1 insight bonus on a Lore, Religion and Lore, Nature skill checks.
  • Know Thy Enemy! A Crusader's Brief - +1 insight bonus on Perception and Stealth skill checks.
  • Crusader Chronicles - +10 hit points.

The music really hits the spot this time. I especially like the Demon Mythic music, it's very metal.

Regarding Mythic Paths. I initially wanted to be an Angel as that's a pretty fitting path in this setting, but after having encountered some of the companions I honestly want to try either Lich or Swarm first, just in order to obliterate these whiny bastards and go it alone.

Hmm I'm getting my ass reamed here on core. Either I've gotten shit at the game or my MC isn't dominating enough.

Will be really interested to see what kind of builds the big brains come up with.

Maybe something with mirror image.

I like how Chapter 1 is confusing for everyone. I can't wait for you boys to hit Chapter 2, or 3, when shit is about to go real and the SJWs start to die around you. :)

Holy shit didn’t even know this was a thing. Would have discovered it tonight I guess since reading the library before playing like Elder Scrolls.

Tgx for putting it together.

Anyone bothering to complain about "woke writing"* instead of reflecting on the fact that they are playing fucking pathfinder is a bigger faggot than any homosexual fantasy character ever has a hope of being. They at least, the poor innocent pixels, have no choice in the matter of willingly letting the ghost of Gary Gygax(known grognard and historical illiterate) fuck them in the ass.

Look at yourself. Look in the mirror. You are playing an RPG game whose combat system is, for reasons relating to deficiencies in Russian nutrition and the defects of cognitive development, a ONE to ONE adaptation of the worst pen and paper game ever conceived. Why are you asking a computer to roll d20s for you? Do you have autism? No, you are just retarded. But it gets worse. It's a ONE to ONE adaptation in everything but the actual mode of gameplay. It's a fucking turn based shit system ported without ANY consideration into a RTWP game.

What the fuck.

Yes, you can turn on the turn based mode, but even that is like applying a band aid to help cure the gallon of pure aids that you have just injected into your veins. The encounter design is made for the rtwp abomination mode, the pacing is made for the rtwp abomination mode, the consumable quantity is "balanced"(only Austrian brains can truly balance games but I digress) around the rtwp abomination mode. What a mess!

Now let's talk about the character creation. It's absolutely pathetic. You can soyak scream about the hecking bazillion of choicerinos as much as you want, but the real truth of the matter is that 99.99% of potential character outputs are bigger trap choices than the one tastefully transgender companion. There is zero actual thinking you have to do, and if there was you would complain about it as you retards have complained about AoD character creation requiring you to "minmax", that is, use your brain. You increase your "i am good at my class" stat, you dump one of the save stats or str. You put points into use magic device so you can abuse the game. You pick the completely obvious cookie cutter feat. That's it.

The only real choice you make while building your character in Pathfinder(piss be upon them) is what lvl you do your Scaled Fist dip in. This leads us to another reason why you are a huge faggot for playing this game. Dex supremacy.

Why do you, as a man, play a game where it is objectively better to be naked instead of wearing armor? Idk seems kinda suss.

Not only it is horrible design, but it makes no fucking sense. Are you making a game based on European medieval fantasy or are you making a fucking anime? How exactly are you "dodging" all of these sword blows? What the fuck is a sword saint?! Only pedophiles and divorced actors are willing to wear bath robes in public.

They said no more bracers of armor +8? Fuck you, doesn't matter, they added Archmage Armor. They added Armored Battlemage? Fuck you, it's a shit non-competitive class. H-hellknight signifier? Just "no". W-weapon finnesse is a t-two feat tax ahctually? Shut the fuck up, it's a lvl 20 campaign you will have more feats than Blizzard has harassment court cases.

The only saving grace of dex supremacy is that it prevents you from having to engage with the absolutely garbage itemization of the game.

Anyhow, that's enough words wasted on this garbage of a game.

Gonna go kill some fampyrs and ducs in a real RPG with my much superior black woman paladin companion at my side(she just left my party because I solved a side quest in the wrong way, shit was so cash), toodaloo suckers!

Semper fi.

tl;dr: popamole garbage for people who unironically think baldurs gayte is a good game

It’s kind of Zen - game isn’t about builds at all. You can autoleveling and be fine. All about learning and using your abilities and picking your fights.

You won’t be able to keep Image up early anyway. Either use your consumables or play with a Leopard with Mage Armor.

Almost nothing like that can be found in the West today. All entertainment is spectacular set pieces for the rubes, strung together with teaching moments, and nothing but that.

So western games should be perfect for Codex? This is literally the description of Disco Elysium, and it won GOTY here.

So if you choose the dragon bloodline for blood rager, you have to use fists or you won't get extra claw attack?

Played the battle to defend the tavern at the start of the game, the first longer battle. Right after it was ended I get a crash report and get sent back to menu.

So now I have to do it again.

:rage:

Really, really loving the gameplay so far. The little improvements over Kingmaker in UI is a joy too.

Setting is good, and I think the story is overall better written than KM so far. However, I'm not really getting hooked in and caring about what happens next. Hoping it picks up a bit.

I miss when you are inspecting creatures and there is no lore info like it was in Kingmaker. Don't understand why they removed that since now we have all kind of weird and interesting demons.

Then you suck. Why would you choose a class and never even learn how to play it?

Up to three, if he burns his very limited Ki. You can double your Threat Range, get a ton of Perception, make your bow bigger, get four free DEX, have +1 atk/dam, and have a 33AC tank on top of all that instead.
Not really interested in dipping my feet into the distilled autism, but comparing timed spell effects to flat +1 attack at such low level is p silly.

I was level 3 when I quit so I didn't have shit, at which point the cringe boy had up to 3 attacks per turn with optional perfect strike on top of that.
If that made you uncomfortable almost as Viktor who realised he never could be as good specialist as Edwin Odesseiron, I wonder how would you feel when you'll meet the Primadonna with a sum of stats about 2 times of your own who seemed to be studied from 20 Strafe Amazon from Diablo.
I'm literally shaking rn.
