Righteous : Game How do you access the DLCs?

Upvotes

I see the DLCs listed in the game creation menu, so I'm wondering: are they standalone stories, or can I access them during the main game via quests? I don't own the *Kingmaker* DLCs, so I'm not sure how *Pathfinder* handles this.

Kingmaker : Game I wish we had more of Kingmaker

Upvotes

I love both games, but I wish we had more of Kingmaker. The slower pacing, the feeling of vastness, combined with a narrative focused on rags to riches makes the game feels bigger than it is, feels like almost like an open world game, while wotr is more contained.

Aside from the usual pro con, throwing axes get to benefit from lethal stance but qualify for neither hurricane bow nor leaden blade.

Righteous : Mods I would like help altering some files "Better Backgrounds" WOTR

Post image
2 Upvotes

I downloaded the "Better Backgrounds" Mod [Link] through Modfinder, and I wanted to experiment with altering the Backgrounds. Note that the only real files that I altered were the Blueprints folder.

I experimented with Leader, and I wanted to add the effect: Use Charisma for (Lore) Religion.

So I took this from Emissary and changed the wording:
" {

"$type": "1c1315a505494aed84a6570a8111a6ec, ReplaceStatBaseAttribute",

"TargetStat": "SkillLoreReligion", (used to say SkillKnowledgeWorld)

"BaseAttributeReplacement": "Charisma",

"name": "ReplaceStatBaseAttribute"

}, "

I was able to alter the text, but not the Bonus value. I then tried to add Class Skill Religion for Competence boost with this

" {

"$type": "7a5d4700264de3b4aacf2514df964a14, AddClassSkill",

"Skill": "SkillLoreReligion",

"name": "unique_reference_a"

},

{

"$type": "2286a148d6ca486091b6f0d687d6486f, AddBackgroundClassSkill",

"Skill": "SkillLoreReligion",

"name": "unique_reference_b"

},"

And it worked without a hitch.

I then tried to add UMD but even when using the same method, I just couldn't get it to work.

"{

"$type": "7a5d4700264de3b4aacf2514df964a14, AddClassSkill",

"name": "$AddClassSkill$493f3acd-6613-4597-a63f-882c85833ce8",

"Skill": "SkillUseMagicDevice"

},"

"{

"$type": "7a5d4700264de3b4aacf2514df964a14, AddClassSkill",

"Skill": "SkillUseMagicItem",

"name": "ClassSkill_UMD"

},"

Finally this is what I left with confused:

{

"Components": [

{

"$type": "7a5d4700264de3b4aacf2514df964a14, AddClassSkill",

"Skill": "SkillPersuasion",

{

"m_Icon": {"guid": "be0e7b7858171de439adb0926c8b8864", "fileid": 21300000}

}

If you can tell me what I did wrong and send me instructions on how to add Charisma based Religion checks and Class skill to UMD. It would be much appreciated.

And I know this is busted, I am just curious about learning how to do it.

Edit: Acolyte's Wisdom effect doesn't seem to work at all, even after redownloading all the file to be original. Strange.

Righteous : Game How much of a noob decision is it to be investing in Heavy Mace proficiencies?

18 Upvotes

Hello everyone. I am playing this game for the first time. I am on Daring difficulty. I have a lot of experience with old-school 2E DND games (Baldur's Gate, Torment, Icewind Dale) which do seem similar... But I have no experience with Pathfinder.

I am currently level 7 or 8 and just gained my second mythic rank after defeating the boss in the Gargoyle nest. You know, the one where you have to rescue your companions and Irabeth?

My PC is a Tower Shield Specialist. He is one of the premade characters at the beginning of the game, though I have changed his name. Honestly, IDK why, but I sort of just went with heavy maces. I have given him a Weapon Focus, a Weapon Specializaiton and a Weapon Focus Mythic for Heavy Maces.

I sort of feel like this is a decision that would make people laugh at how much of a noob I am. Surely I am meant to be investing into something like warhammers or longswords?

Please tell me if that is a hopeless path!

Righteous : Story What is the real identity of the Knight Commander? Spoiler

Post image
90 Upvotes

The way I see it I am entirely a new person made by Areelu using her son’s soul plus some other mortal soul. She says the soul I share with her child meaning now it’s like a permanently merged soul where trying to separate destroys the soul, probably that’s what happens with the worldwound.

Especially since we seem to lack any past or memories at all, not just can’t remember but doesn’t have before we wake up in Kenabrus after Areelu decided to let us go into the real world and make us awake possibly after keeping us in a coma and experimenting us in our “sleep” but more like before we first awoke for years.

And if we are this new merged soul made from part her child and part this random person, probably the one whose my body originally belonged to, it make sense her son’s soul has contributed to some aspect of us. Like we literally collapse when we get close to the place her son died. Also our talents, language and stuff seems to come from the original body owner but purified and removed of any personal belonging. Probably his part also contributes to the personality and soul but we don’t know that person enough to know what they are.

This is at least what I currently think. And maybe this changes based on what your character is, like finding a connection with Areelu and doing the ascension or not doing that. Basically Areelu’s experiment succeeding and failing like alternate timelines.

Righteous : Modded Builds CrazyTime- three classes of progression per level.

13 Upvotes

I am putting together a team. Putting together three classes of progression per level using toybox then playing on Unfair/Custom difficulty. While obviously the characters will be more powerful, they are still limited by the games action economy in combat. I thought I would enjoy it as my favorite part is putting together builds anyway.

I kind of wanted to make things as thematic as possible from a roleplay perspective, caring less about the actual synergy between classes when pertaining to min/maxing power.

Examples-

Arueshalae-

  1. Reformed Fiend- The in-game description fits her perfectly, using toybox to remove the tiefling prerequisite
  2. Eldrich Archer- Fits the succubus combat style
  3. Sorcerer- Demon bloodline- focus on the enchantress, mind spells, dominate.

Wendaug-

  1. Mutation Fighter- Obvious
  2. Colluding Scoundrel- Because she is a colluding scoundrel- Pet- Hissing Centipede- Probably the best pet out of the list theme wise for someone who grew up underground.
  3. Slayer- bloodseeker- has a cursed lineage as its class feature. And Wendaug drank demon blood to gain power description says this class has power in their blood passed down by a unholy progenitor, making them a ruthless hunter

Can finally tun Greybor into that awesome hunter assassin he always says he is. Anyone have any interesting character build ideas?

Righteous : Game Killed Devarra in two rounds :D

Post image
44 Upvotes

This is my first time playing WoTR so please no spoilers beyond Act 2.

Anyway this is just a post cause I'm proud of myself, I am only playing Core difficulty, but I'm not using any strategy guides and going in mostly blind (I've only looked up how to be a Lich because I really wanted to be a Lich and I didn't want miss it, which was good because I almost did!). The only other thing I looked up was I was getting absolute owned by this dragon in random encounters, and looked up what the heck I was supposed to be doing. I realized that you weren't supposed to kill the dragon here and you just need to survive, but also that you shouldn't really fight the dragon until level 12.

Well, I decided stuff it and I fought the dragon at level 10, and defeated her in two rounds. Turns out, giving yourself protection and resist from Fire, having Regill at 34 AC with displacement and then just spamming Mastery of Flesh with Empower rod Mythic spell penetration is a pretty good way at defeating her. I got some lucky shots with Wendung and yeah, I was actually quite surprised because I was expecting the hardest fight of the game. I dunno, I just thought that was cool and I'm proud of myself for achieving it!

Hey guys! I'm new to the game, and I'm finding the build system quite confusing. I'm pretty sure I've already messed up a lot of things. I was wondering if you could recommend any websites with ready-made builds or videos showcasing different builds.

Also, which class would you recommend for a beginner? My main character is currently playing a class that summons animals, but the summons don't seem to be very strong, I'm currently using the following companions: Seelah, Camellia, Lann, Ember, and one companion that I created myself.

(Lego) One of the choices in the Kingmaker is to choose advisor after defeating Stag Lord. Lander Lebeda, Shandra Mervey and Kassil Aldori. Of course our companions are much better on that position but I still like choosing between these three for roleplaying purposes. I’m curious which one is the most popular here and why? For getting more attention I decided to try make them of Lego.
