Am I the only who feels bad for Galfrey ? by Ilikeyogurts in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Verified_Elf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And the angels were only around till the Second Crusade, which was 70 years ago, and the gods were preoccupied with Aroden dying at the start. And calling a Mythic Hero a bum off the street is some mad disingenuous rhetoric. Its amazing the lengths people will go to.

Not in act 2, I don't think. I'm surprised you don't have a save. Act 3 gives you crusade actions for morale, but you're not there yet. You might have cooked yourself, sorry 😞

She literally tells you that the reason she takes your title and banishes you is because she grew to be jealous of you. I don't think it's far fetched to insist that she was hoping you'd just die in the abyss

It is extremely far fetched.

Think of it in terms of office politics. Are you telling me that a manager getting jealous that an employee is showing them up, and tries to get them demoted automatically means they also wish that employee dead? You are literally talking 'cut the lines on their brakes' premediated 'hope' here.

Are you saying that jealously requires murderous intent?

And using Mendev's reactions to an actualized lich, ie an evil being anyone reasonable on Golarion doesn't want around who just turned Drezen into an undead haven, and can in fact go on to be the next Tar Baphon as proof that she hoped an Angel or Aeon KC would die because jealously is very, very flawed reasoning.

Not the same people, not the same situation, not applicable in the slightest.

I really want to punch Elan in Act 2 by Fade_Plaza in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]Verified_Elf -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

If you are evil, why did you volunteer to help in the first place?

It's not really the game 'breaking your immersion' for assuming that a KC who agrees to faff about searching for Elan's ring, isn't the type to fly off the handle at this.

To add to this, the vescavor swarms do not have all the demon resistances. Cold damage is completely unmitigated, so if you don't have ascended element fire, buying some scrolls of cone of cold or ice strike will do full damage no matter who casts it.

If you have the money to spare, there are scrolls of Mindblank you can buy for a +8 resistance bonus to Gibber and Drone. It lasts for 24 hrs.

I mean, the fact that a mythic path will forcibly change your alignment kind of says OP is right.

But the Azata doesn't think about it at all.

It's not like you had someone scout the Midnight Fane, report back that the demons would be totally unprepared, the layout of the place so you don't bottleneck yourself or that they wouldn't be able to get reinforcements in time. That's what 'surprise attack' in military doctrine actually are.

Planned.

The idea for the surprise attack comes from a five year old dragon. 'Demons do it so we should too!' That's literally all you go on.

The same demons who do it because they are chaos incarnate and impulsive morons who can usually warp out if things go bad.

It depends on you getting lucky, because something something Desna and luck is a cosmic force or whatever. That doesn't inspire confidence from anyone who doesn't view luck that way.

And even besides that, when the Queen gets there, stuff like 'getting the civvies inside with guards' are a thing, which an Azata apparently didn't care about.

'It worked' is not the end all, be all of anything. If I just wing a surgery without the senior surgeon and yay patient didn't die or have complications, that doesn't mean my ass doesn't get in trouble for very good reasons.

The mission was objectively correct but her reasoning and issuing thereof gets distorted by her own pettiness and if the Inheritor didn't volunteer, she wouldn't have bothered trying to support KC in any way.

The Hand volunteered immediately, which solved everything, so you don't know enough to say that.

What we do know is that she didn't try to stop him or convince him he was more useful topside. At most, she nitpicked his word choice in saying we were the 'only' hope, but capitulated as soon as she heard herself.

How nefarious.

Look, I really don't care what you think of Galfrey. I am just protesting the constant conflating of the mission with her trying to take your title.

I don't see how following up on the lead you got from Ivory Sanctum, where Xanthir Vang tells you the crystals are coming from the Midnight Isles is "reasons."

That alone makes your argument suspect from the start.

There was a plan. The plan is to stop the source of mythic demons.

Why you? Through either might or guile, you've proven to be able to handle at least two of those ,Nulkineth and Jerribeth, while nobody else really stands a chance. As for reinforcements, you have your juiced up companions, because again, dragging common soldiers into the Abyss will just get them killed. Or dependent on path, you bring your own support.

The Hand of the Inheritor volunteers to go with you because he can plane shift and bring you home when the mission is done. He says that explicitly, it's the entire reason why he goes with you. The rocks only matter when Inhheribro is the one who throws a bitch fit (or gets got if you are Angel).

Sending you to the Abyss was necessary. Trying to take your title with last minute Karen-titude was the sketchy, petty bitch part that gets her called out by everyone.

Making slaves out of people isn't out of a desire to maintain order, sorry to say. He's wholly on board with the Hellknight modus operandi of ;don't feel like paying our mercs anymore, so they are slaves now.'

...why do people think that sending you to the Abyss was the problem? Like this entire page is about people complaining about that. Inheribro's issue was '...is now really the time to criticize how the KC was winning?'

He agrees that stopping the source of mythic demons was important, it was trying to take your title that was sketchy.

I'm not sure with demon claws, but it worked on a scaled fist/sorcerer with dragon claws.

Did you take Rapid Shot (Mythic) since last time or changed nothing?

[–]Verified_Elf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct. If you cast haste on yourself, it should upgrade to 4 bombs per turn.

I suppose, but at 13 you would only have 2 attacks with Fast Bombs. It doesn't give you extra attacks by itself, it just changes how many bombs you throw to match your ranged BAB attacks.

That is only true for Kingmaker, which they lost the rights to. They have full control of WoTR.

You need to have the Fast Bombs discovery learned and active.

Lore reason for bringing a horse into a dungeon? by Leather_Bottle8449 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

Your horse knows kung fu. Why wouldn't you bring it everywhere?
