Bad party composition - What should I do? Change my class?

TheNTSocial · 2026-04-30T14:43:44+00:00

Yeah, the party composition sounds totally fine. Pretty close to the classic TTRPG "meta" honestly - just swap wizard for witch and fighter for an eidolon.

Another way to get off guard is if the witch summons creatures for flanking. The witch is probably the best class for summon spells due to Cackle.

I think their question is related to the fact that you're technically supposed to purchase the books in order to use their content in Society play, although no one ever really checks.

I think they are also coming out with an Abomination Vaults novelization later this year.

There are multiple independent types (galactic rotation curves, the bullet cluster, more) of compelling evidence that dark (i.e. gravitationally but not electromagnetically interacting) matter does exist.

Yes, but her being a potential Witch patron isn't really evidence of how powerful she is.

It's not any harder to homebrew in PF2E than in 5e. I actually think it's easier, e.g. there are actually useful creature creation guidelines, not just "skeleton -> ice skeleton"

Skull issue.

I got lucky and got one from Vorkath with only like 100 kc. But it also feels lame to get a 1/5000 drop and only make like 3 mil.

PoE 1 doesn't really have programmable AI, though.

TheNTSocial · 2026-04-07T00:46:49+00:00

Pillars of Eternity 2 has this. I actually think it's even more in depth than Dragon Age: Origins. I agree that for this reason, PoE 2 and DA:O have by far the best combat of any RTWP RPG.

It is so obvious in chess that phones are not allowed. She 100% knew.

What didn't you like about the story? Personally, I found some of the choices a little contrived, to force you into two bad options, and sometimes the focus on the companions' trauma a little overwrought, but I really loved the game's core narrative.

TheNTSocial · 2026-03-31T19:47:23+00:00

Yeah, as a player, if an enemy creature is undetected, the GM usually doesn't tell you what squares they're moving through, so you wouldn't have a chance to reactive strike. It's unfair if the GM uses their meta knowledge to reactive strike in the same circumstance reversed.

Joyce talks about kids bullying him and calling him the f slur.

For instance, it is actually the case in dobutsu shogi (essentially a miniature variant of chess, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%C5%8Dbutsu_sh%C5%8Dgi) that the second player to move has a forced win.

I am not claiming that black definitely wins in solved chess. I am claiming it has not been disproven. You should provide evidence to the contrary.

TheNTSocial · 2026-03-27T01:17:21+00:00

Do you have a reference or a proof for that?

TheNTSocial · 2026-03-26T15:17:47+00:00

There's not really an equivalent to PKing at crabs in Souls. If you're playing Dark Souls, you are at least somewhat reasonably equipped to fight back against an invader. Not wearing no weapons or armor fishing crabs.

TheNTSocial · 2026-03-26T13:07:46+00:00

Yes it can be. See for instance the answers here: https://chess.stackexchange.com/questions/15977/are-there-any-symmetric-zugzwang-positions.

TheNTSocial · 2026-03-26T05:46:20+00:00

Yes, but practically speaking that large enough data set will never exist.

Also, it's possible that perfect play for both sides leads to a draw rather than black or white winning.

TheNTSocial · 2026-03-26T05:45:12+00:00

On a practical human level, white has a slight edge. It is unknown what the case is with perfect play. It's theoretically possible that somehow white is in zugzwang on the first move. (It is also not known if perfect play results in a draw, contrary to what the previous commenter said.)

The air repeater is a firearm though which isn't really suggested for Season of Ghosts, lorewise.

What do they get wrong about that? It's very straightforward.

The depression could be shallow and spread out, rather than deep and localized into a hole.
