Just put on a random red dress. It's quite difficult to paint the scar on my chest where I can hardly see it... And I love my cat's reaction 🤣

Righteous : Game Midnight Isles is Ruining my Life

• Upvotes

I just wanted to vent to someone who might appreciate it.

Playing through the regular campaign on normal I got to chapter 3, very pleased with the builds I'd come up with, starting to wonder what gimmicks or tricks I could pull off. I rushed to the midnight isles figuring there must be great loot in an endless dungeon. So imagine my surprise to find fifteen dungeon layers with almost no (good) loot. "It's just gold and xp? That's it?" I was annoyed, it felt like nothing compared to other owlcat dlc.

Then I made the mistake of trying the standalone midnight isles. "Okay, I can try out some other build ideas" I thought. "It will probably be tedious, though."

So imagine my surprise when I realized the midnight isles are actually just hades. Roll multiple characters, each dungeon offers a reward for this run or all runs. Screw up a build? Fine, you're making another character in an hour when this run goes south.

My story progress has stopped cold in favor of endless dungeon runs and the hook of being able to test out as many bad or silly builds as I want.

I'm now mad there's nothing like this in rogue trader. I'm considering going back to try kingmaker's version. I'm hooked and I can't help it.

This was Absolute cinema. My friend who has over 4k hours in the game says she prefers Daeran romance and finds this one boring in comparison

(I showed her my screenshots since she was curious how Arueshalae romance goes)

But I dont give a damn, this is peak vanilla!

Righteous : Builds Merged Angel Class Question

• Upvotes

So, I've started and got to Act 3 with an oracle angel several times. Each character is a variation of battle and or nature and I just feel by act 3 I have a character whose trying to do everything and not specializing which inevitably causes me to stop.

I definitely want to do a playthrough as an angel, but feel like oracle may not be it since they can basically "do it all." Any suggestions for a more focused approach?

My last completion was as a 2H demonslayer ranger down the azata path for what its worth. Feel like the angel wants to be a caster.

Righteous : Bug Market Square Unplayable?

4 Upvotes

TL;DR: WOTR is running fine in every area except the Marketplace.

Hey folks, veteran of WOTR (2000 hours) here going through another playthrough for kicks. I have a decent PC with GeForce RTX 3060 (driver updated), plenty of storage, and an AMD Ryzen 5 5500 processor.

The game runs fine until I get to the Marketplace. Then it's barely playable, even when my graphics AND display are at their lowest possible settings. Still exceedingly choppy and truly unplayable.

Any help with this?

Righteous : Builds Need some help

6 Upvotes

I currently am still planning a character I like enough to go beyond chapter 3 beginning of chapter 4.

And question is it even possible to have a character that has great melee combat but also is good at magic.and thought that if I go like hell knight signifier/eldritch knight combo.

And wanted to ask for some help to map out how that works as I thought I start as fighter (armiger), going into maybe wizard for 4 lvls, 5 signifier and 10 eldritch knight.

Starts I thought about 19 Str, 14 con, 12 dex, 16 int, 9 wie, 7 cha.

Feats I think of spell penetration and weapon focus. Problem is I have no idea what mythic path would fit exactly, as the problem is I want to play a chaotic neutral char but can't exactly if I go with signifier

Righteous : Game Question about in-game respec process

• Upvotes

I want to keep the same class (fighter), mythic path (angel), alignment, etc. I just want to change some feats/ability choices. If I use Hilor or one of the other in-game respec guys will it reset my alignment/choices and essentially wipe them out? I'm a bit reluctant if it basically makes a chunk of the roleplaying alignment choices I made obsolete.

I know there are mods available to make this less of a hassle but I'm mostly curious about how much the in-game respec sets me back.

Thanks in advance for advice or any input.

Righteous : Builds Need help making a bloodrager

• Upvotes

I'm pretty new to the game and I don't really understand how to do good builds, I know I can probably just put this on auto level or just pick whatever sounds cool and easily beat the game (on normal) but I'm a worrier and a perfectionist (yay me)

I'm planning on making them a dhampier so I need help to know which stat spreads are optimal and which feet pics i should buy

Righteous : Game Some questions

1 Upvotes

So I'm currently doing my run who I hope finally finish the game and wanted to ask some questions

Like I understand some of the time limits but how does it look from chapter 4 to 5 and some of the dlc.

What exactly is the use behind devil and gold dragon, as this two seem like they try to be something on their own but devil feels like demon but lawful and gold dragon felt like angel but atleast I got a transformation

About swarm who walks, like how does stuff actually work with the clones. Like do they all get the effects of armors and equipment. As I read on the wiki they have their own inventory but doesn't elaborate on stuff like equipment.

Is trickster actually the strongest mythic, as I have seen builds where enemies just died by being to close with all those aura effects.

How exactly does it work with wielding a one handed weapon with both hands, does the second slot just have to be empty or what

Why do some weapons feel less worth using like the Kukuri or the throwing darts or am I missing something with those as I can't see them being used besides maybe a rp run

Righteous : Builds ice witch sword saint build

4 Upvotes

I know this is going to be weird but is there someway to do sword saint for melee and ice witch for magic? I say witch becuase I am currently have witch dip for ice plant but I just kinda want to use ice magic. I know that if I am doing I might take cross blooded dip for the bonus to ice damage and convert magic to ice. I am kinda of going for the magic swordsman who uses ice magic feel.

Righteous : Story Why would anyone worship the Evil aligned gods of pathfinder? Asmodeus,Dahak, Rovagug, etc.?

116 Upvotes

At least Demon Lords pretend to care about their followers to trick people (Daeran has great dialogue about this) hence why they have large cult followings. But why would anyone worship these gods. The only thing I can think of is hardcore misanthropes who just hate everyone.

This game peaks at chapter four for me. I love the fact that all the builds start reaching their potential or cap at chapter 4 and best of all there is no crusade management.

Im a nobody trying to be a somebody and I can just stop and kill the locals anytime they just sneeze my way.

Chapter 5 becomes a slog as I try to finish the game but chapter 4 feels like opening a new book and rushing through the pages because it's just great.

Righteous : Builds How evil do I need to be to be a rich mythic path

9 Upvotes

Simple question that as far as I can tell I've not seen it declared. Do I need to be by the game standard in the alignment department one flavor of evil

My character is neutral right now and I just finished the Lost chapel, and I am mythic level 2 do I need to go farm up evil points and then respec? And is there any story related lich stop I will miss if I proceed not being a lich as of this point

Hello, everyone. Could someone be so kind and responsive as to help me change the skin and hair color of this tiefling?

I decided to play through the game and came up with a build and character. According to the lore, my character is a Div Spawn. But the collor skin and hair portrait doesn't match the origin.

Can anyone help me with this? Repainting by hand is too time-consuming for my skill level.

Kingmaker : Game How exactly you use "trip" in Trip Builds? Do they just happen on auto? Should I trigger trip on auto?

15 Upvotes

So I have been following build of tripping vivisectionist for Kingmaker - Motherless Tiefling Vivi/Traditional Monk/Sword Saint/Dragon Disciple first for natural attacks, later with Fauchard.

But my question is: how exactly this trips happen? I got Trip feat and Trip action on hotbar but if I trigger it will make my character just spam Trip but in video I see people just swining weapons and occasionally enemies fall and I don't see them click on Trip action or anything. Can someone explain how it works in Kingmaker.

Righteous : Bug Come and Get Me rage power and Inciter Skald

Buff is greyed out and not toggleable
Buff is greyed out but shows the toggled visual

Hey guys.

I have an Inciter Skald in my party and I took Come and Get Me as a rage power on level 12. But Inspire Rage doesn't seem to be sharing the buff to the other party members like Lethal Stance, etc. The ability is toggleable on my Inciter, but it's greyed out on all the other party members, and it is either greyed out with the toggled visual indicator or its greyed out with no indicator that it's been toggled on. This happens even in combat. Has anyone else run into this issue?

Righteous : Bug No xp gain after battle (bug?)

3 Upvotes

What the title says, I encountered this problem (or noticed it) when I was on the midnight treasure's last island (5th). Half of the enemies won't give you any xp on beating them (although their info card states how much xp you would gain).

Same thing happened with the dlc's final boss (songbird) though that might be quest related.

Has anyone else noticed it?
