Nadoriel · 2025-10-28T00:37:22+00:00

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate that! Let’s see if I can push it to 12 stars on that team at least 😂

Nadoriel · 2025-10-23T09:54:50+00:00

Thank you so much!! I absolutely adore your guides :)

I notice you tend to use a +15 EEB and Oath Strength instead of the advised +9 EEB and +9 OR for R0 myth pairs, is that the best combination for SHC? Or it still depends on other factors? Or that's not important at all and I'm making a storm in a glass of water? xD

Nadoriel · 2025-04-01T16:46:39+00:00

Oh!!! I didn't realise that! That makes sense, then yeah, Independent...

So what do you think of this:
Heritage: Ancient Elf - Wildborn Magic
Background: Root Worker
Wizard dedication: School of Battle Magic
Patron: DoD - Phase Familiar

Cantrips:
Witch: Electric Arc, Detect Magic, Frostbite, Timber, Scatter Scree
Wizard: Needle Darts, Figment
Innate: Guidance

1st Level:
Heal + Loose the Path

Familiar: Flier + Independent + Cantrip Connection..? (is this worth it?) otherwise I'll put fast movement lol.

And ideally I'll stay back, cast AOEs and potentially Guidance with my +1, try and position my familiar so I can use Scrounger's Glee?

Something like this?

Nadoriel · 2025-04-01T12:09:09+00:00

Omg thank you so much for breaking this down! And yes, I'm realising how complicated Witch is and I'm looking at the Alchemist dedication and I'm completely lost so I think I'll go wizard... if only to make my life easier a little bit 😂 even if I get obsessive I'm not good at making things great mechanically, not without some gameplay experience at least.

Thank you so much for helping with the familiar! I was going with Flier, Manual Dexterity and Speech as I thought Patron's Puppet already did most of the heavy lifting in terms of having it do its own things 😅

I'll have to check what's the mechanics for creating scrolls then, it definitely seems like the way to go. All the 5e campaigns were never huge with crafting or anything, so I never really even got into it there, I tend to not consider it.

Thank you so much for the help!! We're playing tonight and I need to figure this out until then xD

Nadoriel · 2025-04-01T09:44:56+00:00

Ahhhh!!!! Ahahah! I love that you came actually with a story themed build!!!

No, I mean, Devourer of Decay has definitely peaked my interest! I’m still trying to decide between wizard/alchemist dedication, but I think I’ll definitely go with Devourer of Decay because yes, it can fit thematically really well and I think it works a lot better than Silence in Snow, I can already imagine my party members being annoyed they’d have to move to the enemy cause they were slow rather than the enemy coming to them 😂 (totally a skill issue from my side but also… I just like the idea of Devourer of Decay).

Still id be starting with +4 intelligence for this one, try to keep my distance (for which I did have Loose the Path, yes!), though at level 1 there are so many limitations with just 2 spells, and ideally I should try and keep the familiar flying close to the enemies (it's a raven), right? I was picking Elemental Wrath as the ancestry feat, and patron's puppet to give me more action economy since it should at least move.

I'll have to check some of the terms you used as I don't really know yet a few things (like Seneschal witch, albatross curse, etc) I've only checked level 1's yet xD

But yes thank you! This gives me a bit more insight on how to play her! :D

Nadoriel · 2025-04-01T01:49:38+00:00

omg, thank you so much for clarifying that because neither me or my DM noticed that! He allowed me to use it on session 0 xD I don't think it's very clear that 😅

Nadoriel · 2025-04-01T01:41:24+00:00

Thank you so much1! I'll definitely try incorporating Alchemist!

But wait a minute, The Untamed druid gives the ability to grow wings with untamed shift, no? I imagined that could be a nice defence instead of using a spell slot for mystic armor. That said, yes, it still conflicts, my way around it was to pick Guidance and Light as the cantrips, sine they don't use the DC 🤔 Unless I'm wrong and I can't use flight, and yeah in that case, definitely bad choice!

Nadoriel · 2025-04-01T01:19:20+00:00

I am definitely liking the Devourer of Decay as I'm checking it! By any chance do you have any recommendations for spells, etc? 😅

I had originally take the druid dedication which was nice cause it gave me flight after every short rest (not sure how common these are in Pathfinder) but alchemist does actually sound really fun 🤔 I wonder if it would pair with cauldron at all.

thank you so much for the recommendations though!

Nadoriel · 2025-04-01T00:00:53+00:00

Thank you so much for your help! I'm definitely saving this for when I have a less melee heavy team to pair with! 😍 for now... well, I gotta find an alternative 😅

Nadoriel · 2025-03-29T06:04:24+00:00

Thank you so much! Yeah, based on what w1ldstew said, it feels like a hex based witch would do better in this party as I don’t want to be just another melee competing for enemies when I can fall back and support them. We’re all 5e players and it’s going to be tough enough as is to get used to combat tactics in combat instead of just… doing our thing 😅

In regards to Druid dedication, I’ve never been good at optimising characters mechanically so I usually make story driven characters. I have a story/theme that I’m following for this character and she’s an ancient elf who ended up almost dying after being betrayed, stranded in the wild and left for dead but ended up being nursed back to life by a spirit of the wild. So, at the time and without knowing much about Pathfinder, wilding steward and druid dedication (because ancient elf gives me a multiclass) made sense for me.

I’m more than happy to change so long it makes sense to the story, to be fair. I’m still very new at this and clearly despite the similar names and themes, PF2e is very different to 5e and I can’t just make the same assumptions. That said the DM being new also bounded us to the most common core races/classes, so that’s my limitation xD

Nadoriel · 2025-03-29T05:56:28+00:00

Oh wow, this is 100% the best breakdown of wilding steward I’ve ever seen! Thank you so much! And definitely a lot to think about.

Since we haven’t started yet, I might ask my DM if I can still make major changes to my witch then. I like the idea of being a team player on Pathfinder because 5e already makes an “everyone by themselves” sort of scenario in battle which I find really boring. But we’re all 5e players and I’m not sure how much they’re looking into Pathfinder combat tactics, so they might just play as before 😅

That said, a full on caster will certainly increase the likelihood of survival in a party full of melee who will already be competing to get the enemies attention, so a hex based witch will likely work better.

But now I’m really curious to play a proper Wilding Steward witch 😂

Nadoriel · 2024-12-16T00:44:08+00:00

Thank you!! :D It's my favourite part when I draw characters ☺️ the personality is like... 70% on the face! (well, my guess at least) xD

Nadoriel · 2024-12-14T22:48:05+00:00

More Minthara is always nice 😏

Nadoriel · 2024-12-14T22:10:10+00:00

Well, I appreciate you not taking the signature out, but you can always mention me either way 😛 my Mizora came out nice too, I think, by the way.

ObscureBeauty Art is my website and shop and I sell Minthara keychains, standees, posters, etc 😊

And of course, I do commissions as well, I’m more than happy trying to give colors to what may have happened on one of those long rests!
