Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous, Part 5
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Gromnir's topic in Computer and Console
You naughty Well the weapon bond isn't bad per se, but generally the mount seems to be better because you get better movement and a tank (and more carrying capacity), plus a bug allows you to make full attacks when your mount moves (though this may have been fixed, TTT fixes it by gating it behind a feat that requires 14 mobility, which is pnp accurate). You may also be able to trick the game by using reduce person on yourself before getting the mount and being able to select the wolf or dog instead of the horse, which have more impressive stats but take until you hit level 7 to be able to mount. You may not be able to enlarge the non-horse mounts though, I think TTT fixes that but the vanilla game counts the size increase as a permanent buff that doesn't stack with spells. Yeah, the TTT mod adds a couple of things to help Heavy Armor characters, you go full 20 Fighter and spend 2 Mythic Abilities and you'll get a whopping +11 AC and +14 to the Dex Cap, but that takes a lot longer to come online than a monk dip and has a much higher cost. If you're not a Fighter you can still get +6 AC/+10 Dex cap for two Mythic Abilities....but there are more appealing choices there. It is broken, but you know another way to phrase broken? Unbalanced. -
Merry Christmas (and any other holidays yall may be observing), I hope Santa's Wild Hunt has left yall alone. Here in Texas this begins the tradition of shooting fireworks (and firearms!) off every night before New Years. The rona years have made this a lot louder than normal, and I got to wonder just how much money is being spent on the big boomers and such.

A couple of Christmas movies and one random. First is The Wolf of Snow Hollow, which I like much better with the second viewing. It's not the greatest horror, but Jim Cummings is very good at making horrific situations into comedy. Secondly, The Green Knight. Visually beautiful and with a refreshing ambiguous ending. In many ways I think there is a lot more style than substance here, but the style is very good and the substance is a thousand year old story you were probably forced to read in high school. Lastly, Wifelike. A pretty dumb sci-fi flick about robot sex dolls wives (notably no husbandos) and a cop who brings rebellious ones back to get their memory wiped. We've been here, we've done this, and yeah it's not particularly great.

Space Dandy 8: The gang plays with a dog, baby. So....yeah, this show is crazy. Dr. Gelsef Joestar is perhaps one of the greatest pastiches of a recurring cartoon villain I've seen. Really this show continues to be amazing. Spy X Family 25: Anya takes a nap. It feels like there were a few less shocked faces here, but there have been a lot in recent episodes. Yor takes a backseat and we see another evil Anya face. I'm wondering how the movie will work here, I'd say that it is a vacation movie or something and that season 2 is the next school year but who really knows? Whoever watches it first should try to keep track of the shocked faces to see if it breaks 100.

You naughty So the most important thing is to just play the game how you want. I won't make fun of you for playing on a low difficulty, because iirc even the developers play on easy mode rather than face the monster they created. Playing vanilla Unfair is pretty much only for sadomasochists, getting wiped out by ranged attackers who hit like a truck isn't fun for most people. As to the build, to start with I'd have knocked down Charisma to 19 and put the remaining points into Constitution and either Dexterity or Wisdom, or maybe take a hit in either Intelligence, Dexterity, or Wisdom to grab 16 Strength. You get an odd number of attribute increases so in the long run it makes more sense to take a small hit for your main attribute at first and go for more well rounded base stats. Heavy Armor builds don't really have a lot of support in the vanilla game, they will fall behind the unarmored monk dip tanks or animal companions in Ac and the speed malus hurts. Also, if you go mounted you first use the mount's AC, so your heavy armor bonus doesn't contribute to tankiness. To add a bit of insult, imo the unique Heavy Armor options are pretty underwhelming. The big problem with the Paladin is that it is one of two martial classes without access to Bonus Feats. This means Human is a great choice for that bonus feat (and the extra skill I guess), and that you don't want to take builds that are feat starved (no exotic weapons or twf). In general I'd say that Improved Initiative (especially in Turn-Based, so much that i'd rate it as near essential) and your Weapon Focus/Improved Critical are good choices. If you're going mounted there are a few options you'll want to pick up to help out your mount (if you have ranks in mobility?), and the Teamwork feats are always a good choice for melee. And if you have ranks in Persuasion I'd reccomend Dazzling Display and Dreadful Carnage, as demoralization is really good. Longsword isn't as good as scimitar or rapier in terms of base stats, but there are a lot of great longswords in the game so they're a solid choice. I believe there are enough so that if you take Seelah and a sekrit companion* you'll still have some good uniques to spare. In general the weapon or armor enhancement bonus can be buffed by magic weapon (greater) andmagical vestments (?), so don't pay as much attention to the enhancement bonus as to weapon properties and unique abilities. The big exception is weapons with a DC effect, you can count on those being worse than they sound. But really, I'd just play the game in a way that you enjoy. It's a game, it's supposed to be fun. If you want to be miserable just watch NuTrek or Sailor Moon Crystal. * -

In many ways, Wenduag is the perfect romance for the Lich. Marksmen are Regill's only good suggestion. Have fun. I was going to post Deskarii's villain introduction but I can't remember it. -

I've had tuna and noodle casserole before but cheese on fish, especially tuna, is usually a big no from me. -

Vodka martinis. Now planning on a margarita flight that I hope will go very well. [Parody-tron 10000 engaged: THIS IS A JOKE] I am decidedly not a fan of gin and would have to be baited into drinking it neat. Not much is a match for a good cognac. That and whiskey are the things I almost exclusively drink neat or in an old fashioned.

Did the island chain and learned the Helmsman's true identity. Afterwards I went back to the Crusade and now morale is going down the toilet because I was too good at the war lmao. I'm able to cheat morale via toybox but it's kinda ridiculous how reclaiming half the Worldwound and keeping it stable is a negative because reasons. At least I have a lot of Beer Elementals. I like to think they end up intoxicating a lot of people defining Drezen after you know what happens. Cayden Cailean is definitely best God. Time to do Ivory Labyrinth and hope I can do Arue-chan's quest and the drow thing while waiting for the Queen to get here and raid Playful Darkness' Playpen. -

It's 15 F here and power hasn't gone out (yet), so the heat is cranking. No snow and looks sunny outside. -

Well I'm prepped as can be, time to bunker down and try to outlast the cold. Let's see how this **** goes. -
Space Dandy 4: Dandy finds a place better than Boobies. Then ends up going back to Boobies anyways, baby. One thing that bothered me about the show is Dr. Gel's voice actor because he sounded very familiar. I can now confirm that his voice actor, UnshÅ Ishizuka, is also the voice of (old) Joesph Joestar. So........

I've already got something like that and some food that doesn't require prep. Right now I'm probably going to need to buy or store some water and get ready for pipe drips and other things. -

Did the dragon graveyard quest and what a disappointment, I don't like these To Be Continued quests. Also started the mega dungeon dlc and did two islands. I got stuck like that once for Kingmaker and it took a minute to figure out. Kinda sucks if you are using the right click to check out ability descriptions.
