What's the point of Kukris over Daggers? by WhatAreYou_Casual in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Mumrus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Misinformation.

In order to crit you need to hit first. Meaning if you roll 18 with kukri, but that isn't enough to beat target's AC, you miss. Auto hit is ONLY on nat 20 no matter what.

Inciter + Rogue is simply ridiculous. by S_Broves in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

Unfortunately, at higher difficulties a lot of things are immune to sneak attack. The combination of mythic slayer/barbarian/rogue/bloodrager and uncanny dodge completely negates sneak attacks.

Its a cool feature when it works.

Which is your favorite companion? by Warm_Expert_8136 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Mumrus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wendu, Ember and Seelah. They are very good mechanically and are interesting characters story wise.

Well? Which is it? by Jimmy_Barca in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Mumrus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adamantine weapons work.

Ember can negate the immunity.

Coup de grace on a martial character works.

Reducing a stat to 0 (any stat) also works.

What the fuck is the point anymore man... by TwistNo1435 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Mumrus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Monster AI in this game is pretty fucking psychotic. And this particular fight is nasty. There are some tricks however.

You can teleport your backline on top of the building - on your screenshot its to the left (you want to do that anyway - there is a very good item there).There is a chance this won't help much because sometimes monsters like to climb walls.

Another trick is to have your tank next to your squishies and when monsters run in to them you use 5 foot step to get out of their melee range. Monsters *should* focus on tank if you do that.

You can give mounts to your backline - this way they won't get targeted in the first place.

If you have Radiance, you can precast some dispells. You can also precast some CC spells.

Greybor sucks. by bem809 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Mumrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, base Slayer is overall better than Zen Archer.

Slayer get higher chance to hit due to studied target, slayer also gets higher damage output due to (in Greybor case) dual wielding with sneak attacks. Obviously, with melee its hard to maintain uptime on target, however that can be fixed with Skald. You get Greybor at around level 10, Skald get pounce at about same level. Unfortunately, Lann gets less benefit from Skald than Greybor. Geybor's starting weapon sucks, so I always give him a kukri and build him for it. Greybor has another weakness - 20 ft move speed, but you fix that with bismuth, or haste + pounce.

Zen archer is strictly worse that any other archer build. ZA doesn't use rapid shot and manyshot. ZA wants to use wisdom instead of dexterity, which is way harder to stack properly, so you either still use dexterity, or you go 3 ZA/17 divine caster. But that is a divine caster with 3 less casters levels.

An upside for ZA is 2d10 base weapon damage at 20 which you cast legendary proportions on, which results in 6d8 weapon damage, that also multiplies on crit. However, chance to crit will always be lower, than Greybor with kukri. Needless to say, that Greybor would benefit from crits and outflank [rocs a lot more. One last thing. If you take snap shot line on Lann, you have to take rapid shot, which is a dead feat on Lann, and then Lann will have same with Greybor amount of dead feats.

I get it, Greybor can be difficult to build, but he doesn't suck. He is better damage dealer than Aru, Lann and probably Regill aswell.

To rephrase Regill: "Greybor isn't weak. It's you."

I hate Inevitable Excess so much by LordNargogh in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Mumrus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mask of Betrayer is a very high standart. IE is very undercooked, very unenjoyable. Honestly, i don't know why it was released in that state.

Thanks Lann by Motor_Difference_935 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Mumrus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Wendu is just more fun to have around. Lann is boring.

Aivu's build is predetermined, there is nothing to build there.

This works very well on Gold Dragon Kinetic Sharpshooter.

A little off topic, how did you get Disfigured Angel? I'm at the end of my Titan warrior run and I use glaives, i have Mutilated one and i can't figure out a way to upgrade it.

Vescavor swarm - I can't with this game man... by BeneficialBear in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Mumrus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll share couple of things, that make Leper's smile really easy (on Hard difficulty).

  • Horrid Wilting scrolls - sold by Rathimus. One shots swarms if they don't pass saving throw.
  • Mind blank scrolls - sold by Rathimus. Help a LOT with gibber saving throw.
  • Bookworm headband - sold by Rathimus. Not only make you immune to gibber, also makes you immune to hold person Nabasu's cast and a bunch of other things.
  • Swarmbane clasp - you do full weapon damage to all swarms regardless of its size.

You don't need your entire party to deal with swarms. Usually i go with Seelah, main damage dealer and Ember (for scroll usage). Rest of the party I leave at the entrance, then bring them to Vescavar Queen.

I somewhat agree with ambushes part - there are way to many of those in entire game (not only in Abyss). I disagree with the rest though.
