You won't see the end of the initial path though Also, only Angel, Demon, and Legend are universal and get unlocked no matter what. All other paths require unlocking but most are super easy.

No problem. I can play as Angel again later when I go with a class that can merge the spell books.

Gromnir Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 angel spells are kinda op in wotr. am gonna admit we purposeful avoided doing merged spellbook for our angel run 'cause playing an angel cleric or oracle effective moves the difficulty slider at least one place to the left. nothing wrong with wanting to feel godlike in a game which pits you against against demon lords and has you challenging godly power, but for our first run facing the newish material in chapters five and six, we wanted a character who would not effective misrepresent game challenges for later choices. try and play an aeon after doing angel cleric and am suspecting we could become frustrated with aeon relative weakness... didn't wanna ruin subsequent wotr runs. also, when we got our mythic choice we knew azata were bugged multiple ways, so we went with choice number two.

Azata would work with that. Besides Superpowers being really good, I think the songs benefit from bard or skald performance rounds.

EDIT: Assuming they actually work, because apparently a significant number of items and abilities do not. Well, I hope the Court Poet song stacks with the +Int and +Char items. Multiclassing with duelist would diminish the song effects, so I'll stick to Court Poet. But getting haste and not losing 1 AC at level 20, probably when the game is almost over doesn't seem that good to me. So I'll have a level of Thug and do the Valerie Dazzling Display trick like in Kingmaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gromnir Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 17 minutes ago, InsaneCommander said: So other aspects are bugged? skalds in general are bugged, but court poet is a particular noteworthy outlier as the charisma and int buff isn't being recognized as either a song or rage power, so it can't be augmented in usual ways and doesn't count for skald ability to confer rage powers. for particular parties, the int and charisma buff is nevertheless mighty effective and might be worth the functional lack o' skald compatibility. have mentioned previous in this thread how in spite o' being utter nonsensical from a rpg pov, giving seelah 8 levels o' court poet is an option we has considered and experimented with during the beta... gets her an effective +2 bonus to mark o' justice, guarded stance, uncanny dodge, haste, heroism, good hope, displacement and mirror image, all the charisma and int boosting goodness for ember and/or nenio, etc...

Also, tandem trip seemed to work for me, but it's not as if I was checking the combat log for every trip attempt, so I can't say that it always works as described.

HA! Good Fun! Actually, I only play turn-based. And yes, charge is sometimes messed up, but I haven't had too many problems with it (and everything becomes so crowded after combat starts that I rarely find opportunity to charge after the beginning of the encounter) as well as some other mounted stuff, but nothing that's really been a major issue. I probably haven't seen that tandem trip issue because the only trippers in my party are my character and his animal companion/mount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PK htiw klaw eriF Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 So I played around a bit more and in addition to Oversized not working, weapons that set damage (like a bastard sword that rolls a d20 for damage) do not benefit from size increases. So no size category exploits for crazy dice yet. Also, Blood Red Cleaver hits you with the extra 6d6 damage too.

ShadySands Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 My Demon playthrough has fizzled out so maybe I'll go back to my Trickster game that I abandoned. Nah, I'll probably just start a new game. Spoiler I was trying to become Nocticula's consort but she tells me I'm too wild and she needs someone who will listen to her. I thought I played the demon doormat role well as I don't think I ever went against her and went along with everything she said. I think I raged once or twice but never at her so I dunno where I messed up but I'm not going to play through it again so yeah. I still basically rule Alushinyrra but I want it all.
