Current Events > DrizztLink plays Pathfinder: Kingmaker. My ancestor fucked a dragon so MAGIC!

(+) Yeah! (+)

I sold off about 100k worth of shit from Pitax.

Also discovered that the same merchants from the Rushlight tournament are in the main square and somehow managed to get copies of all their one-of-a-goods.

I could have two of those ridiculous rings if I want.

Yet I STILL haven't found a cool Light Crossbow.

---

After pitax is where the story really start to get going so . .. like 50 to 60 hours in lol?

This game is huge. Too huge. I got 160 hours in first playtrough

---

Good lord.

I know I still gotta fuck up Nyrissa but I only have so much of the map left to explore.

Thinking about my next character.

Tossup between a Paladin and a Monk.

---

Next character ? As in starting a new file? Damn

---

When I'm done.

I like this game.

Plus I've had my experience with blowing people the fuck up, I wanna try beating the shit out of them.

---

Nice. I will just wait for the sequel instead of replaying. The thought of it is just too intimidating for me to invest that much time again lol

---

It's not like I have anything better to do.

I only have one more final and an article review and that is my entire plan for the month.

---

True. Might want to experiment with other party member or custom adventurers. You can't really experience the entirety of the system in just 1 playtrouhg.

Considering the team size, how much they cram into this game is crazy lol. Well, the quality of the content vary, but it is mostly a great game with some eeeh part.


---

The shittiest quest thusfar was apparently written by a Kickstarter backer, which explains things.

The one with the Hellknights.

---

Yeah, i am also ambivalent towards the kingdom building mechanics. The system itself is a bit shite, but i do like the reactions of your decisions of the kingdom stuff in the story.

---

Also put together the last of the broken artifacts.

+8 to strength and they shoot FRICKIN LASER BEAMS

Had to give them to Amiri.

---

To be honest I may reroll my Sorcerer to not be a DD anymore.

My lack of level 8 spells at 18 is making me sad.

---

Rerolled my main to be 18 Sorcerer.

Turns out you can reroll COMPLETELY when it's the main.

I could have become a dwarf.

---

I think yeah you can reroll, but i never do it because i like my magus

---

I found out Horrid Wilting is NOT like BG where it has friendly fire disabled.

Sorry Octavia. Maybe you should have hit the Fortitude save.

---

Good news: I can cast Meteor Swarm.

Better news: It does fire damage, and I have a HUGE bonus to fire damage.

BEST NEWS: I have a level 7 spell (Firebrand) that makes my team immune to fire damage from my spells.

gg no re I already won

---

Same. My tactics most of the time is just using fire immune spells and blasting high level fire spells or upgraded fireballs to everything

---

This is just a single spell though, it's great.

---

Also I got a new rod from one of my artisans.

https://i.imgur.com/bx3Gh4L.jpg

Whoa mama

But I'm not sure if the listed effects outside the Metamagic are connected to the charges or not.

---

Damng it is a really good rod.

---

I looked it up.

Except for the Maximize, everything is passive just from having it equipped.

I now have one rod on my belt and another in my pants.

---

...what in the Crusader Kings FUCK

---

Stepped through the portal to Nyrissa's house.

Time to fuck some shit UP.

---

...

So Linzi is dead.

Did this BITCH not read my topic?

DrizztLink posted...

Linzi the Bard is adorable and my new best friend and if someone tries to fuck with her I swear to every Elven God I will beat them to death using that uppity gnome as my sword of VENGEANCE

Or something more magic-like, I'll play it by ear. Just as long as it involves embarrassing and/or causing grievous harm to that uppity gnome.

I will bring the fires of justice to every corner of your forsaken lands.

I will burn from you a thousand thousand screams of regret, until mercy and love are alien and forgotten to you.

The people of this world will whisper tales of the horrors I inflict upon you around their campfires from now to the last breath of the universe, and they will know fear.

I am coming.

---

Ah fellow Linzi fan.

I see you are a man of culture too

---

I have no idea where I'm going in this House of the Rising Sun or whatever.

Still need to find Amiri, Ayylmao, and khalaKhameleon.

---

Found everyone.

I have no idea how I'm supposed to use this lantern.

---

Mother FUCKER.

Most of the way through the basement and my computer randomly loses power.

I really hate the Ghostly Guards by the way.

---

house at the edge of time? you are in the final dungeon already?

---

https://i.imgur.com/jvcLP4C.jpg

I, uh.

I think I pissed him off.

And yeah.

---

https://i.imgur.com/JHjTyxg.jpg

Fuck me

I can now only cast cantrips.

I was feeling really high and mighty for a second there, realizing I was faced with a basic bitch Owlbear.

---

Well, the First World has melted its chocolate all up in the peanut butter of my kingdom.

I'm porting around getting my people rescued in all the important places I've already been.

---

This is actually a pretty cool finale.

Going through everything I've done before, seeing the consequences of my actions.

---

Screenshoot the ending slides

---

Oh

My

God

So I'm doing Kanerah/Kalikke's last quest.

The demigod is all like "yeah you guys rock" and the Forefather is like "well shoot I'mma head out then" and I'm like "Nah son I'm killing you."

I get ready for a real fight.

https://i.imgur.com/HqtN3fz.jpg

He fails the saving throw against Nok-Nok's instant death rogue ability and explodes in the first round.

Like, you can still see his Initiative check in that image.

---

https://i.imgur.com/OPfBeUm.jpg

I laughed WAY too hard at that line.

---

My capital is all kinds of fucked up right now.

Also I seriously hate Vilderavens. That bleed debuff is annoying as fuck.

Really happy I got warned early on to invest in Blind Fight, though. The Wild Hunt is a huge pain in the ass already, they don't need to be able to spam instant fear gaze attacks.

---

Well, I win.

Whole lotta slides.

Anyway.

I really really did like this game.

It has its flaws for sure, both in questionable design and occasional code issues, but it's a damn good time.

Interesting story, good writing, good characters, and pretty great voice acting.

I'm a little miffed that I spent the whole game romancing Octavia then accidentally undid the whole thing in order to fuck the nymph, but apparently that's the secret ending according to my Steam achievements.

I recommend this.

---

Yeah the ending was very thorough. Generally my chaotic good character have the same result as yours, but some stuff like pitax's fate differed, i didnt manage to unite kobolds and mites, kesten died (i didn't even know you can save both of then if you are fast lol) some differences in details and some i forget, but yeah. Huge ending slides. I have seen so many variations of them ob YouTube it rival fallout new vegas with all dlc

Tbh if the sequel managed to polish the game even more i would rank it better than the classic baldurs gate games.

It is amazing considering it's the team first game

---

I haven't played this in forever, I reached some kind of dead end in the main quest where the next part wouldn't trigger and I have no idea what to do.

I thought the same thing happened to me, but there's two or three parts where you honestly have the better part of a year to sit around waiting for the next event.

I had the Bald Hill thing trigger twice waiting.

Really? I guess I'll keep trying.
I'm playing a Magus, it feels really powerful, but you have to sit and cast a bunch of buffs, first. Oh, since you, or someone, said they didn't get how Magus works earlier? Basically, you turn on the Magus special casting ability, then any time you cast a melee touch spell it's cast through your weapon instead of as a touch spell, so you get weapon damage and spell damage at the same time.

---

Oh, cool.

I ran into a few classes I don't understand.

Like Jaethal has judgements but I never figured out what they are.

Or the Kineticist and Burn. No idea how it works

Burn basically let's you use improvements to your elemental blasts. Once you're burn is full you can only use the basic blasts, or abilities that don't cost any burn. Combining elements, using activated abilities like the heal, and adding shapes to your blasts all cost burn, but you can reduce the burn cost of certain things. I think judgements are basically buffs that Jaethal can activate for a certain duration, she can only have on active at a time though. I'm not sure, I don't use her much.

---

Ok, groovy.

I found a crown that bumped up their blast damage just RIDICULOUSLY in the last part of their quest.

Had to literally walk across lava to get it, but my Sorcerer is immune to fire.

Seriously, I think it was like +6d6 at least.

Would have been nice if there hasn't been like 2 hours left in the game.

Wow, that's kinda lame that it was so late.

They had 2 or 3 other headpieces that did the same type of boost, that was just the best one.

I'm thinking I wanna try this again with a Monk.

Or maybe whatever class summons whatever an Eidolon is.

Sudden aside: I got Jubilost to 20 because I thought that Legendary breakthrough not whatever would be dope.

Turns out it was an choice of like 3 things and the only one I remember was just giving him permanent Fast Healing 5.

Useful but not sexy, I wanted him to build a grenade launcher or something.

I don't think Summoner is in the game, unfortunately. It's one of my favorite PF classes, the customizability of the Eidolon is just too cool.
If I play through again, I'll probably do Druid or the Bard subtype that can sing lightning storms. I found a wand of Call Lightning and it was just too funny.

---

It is with mods, my dude.

I got classes for days.

If you like that just roll up a dude who uses Scimitars and focuses on crits.

There's one that casts Call Lightning on everyone you crit.

I gave it to Tristian, it was great.
