Do you like pic related? Either the writing, style, or maybe just the aesthetic? If so you'll love Owlcat's products.

What's in it? Good ruleset, decent mechanics, mediocre fun, voice acting best described as a "mixed bag", uninspired quirky cartoon graphics, bad characters, terrible balance, and unironically, without hyperbole some of the worst writing you will ever encounter in any medium.

I'm not kidding on the last one, there's fan fiction written by teenagers that has better writing than this game. Also extreme wokeism, the first two main characters you meet are a black woman, a lesbian Orc, and the lesbian Orcs MtF transsexual "lesbian" lover. Also, not content with one tranny, there's a second tranny that you can ask for a sex change potion.
It's not even just the wokeism that makes it shit either, there are actually games with woke politics out there that are very competently written, but this is absolutely not one of them.

More or less just what >>744620658 said

Personally I didn't like it, the story starts quickly with high stakes that feel unearned, there's no good build up to hook you into its narrative, world or characters.
The gameplay is very shallow and superficial, you can't interact with anything around you, everything is a setdressing, I tried to mess around and climb on a roof and i couldn't even do that, can't even walk below it as when you click the character stops at invisible walls.
Combat is a slog, its boring and repetitive, the game lacks enemy variety to keep encounters fresh, the dungeons are designed in a very mundane and one dimensional way, so exploring them is just boring, its worse than Skyrim dungeons and thats not a high bar.
I found its rpg systems archaic and convoluted for no good reason, there's a lot of reading required you may spend a single gaming session just in menus, but the end result is barely different, suffice to say its quantity over quality, you get a feeling they throw mud at a wall to see what sticks.
Quest design is just mediocre, the music is forgettable and i dropped the game at act 4 because I was just not enjoying it at all and i had to use my time in a better way.
I'll also note that its still buggy as fuck despite many patches and shitton of DLCs.

Play it only if you want to see the Pathfinder tabletop, otherwise, imho its just not a good use of your time, if you care about that at all. I'd say its massively overrated but its not, the game scored accurately, its just that some fans oversell it. I caved in and i was disappointed but they made me buy it. I'd rate it 4/10

Not even remotely close. It doesn't even fucking feel like playing PF 1e on tabletop. Either you smash your autoattack party into a fuckfest of generic enemies, or you spam 100 buffs before fighting a boss with disgusting number and ability bloat. The build autism is really the actual best part of the game, especially the branching mythic paths.

The biggest gameplay problems are the crusade stuff and hidden time limits.
Even if you like the crusade stuff you have to start from scratch 3/4 of the way through because the game sabotaging all your shit while you're in the abyss.
And I don't know where Owlcat's obsession with hidden timers started but there's so much shit in the background running checks on what exact day it is, where you might burn days just changing your prepared spells due to a misclick or something else innocent.

Oooh, that my for the mod anon, didn't know it existed.

One question tho, I used a custom portrait that I found online and out it in the game files. I believe that if I use mods to change companion portraits, then I will lose my own custom portrait since the mod changes the paths, right? I would prefer it if I could keep my own custom portrait and the changed ones for the companions at the same time

To be fair, in a fantasy setting where shit like shapes hitting exists, etc. One could argue that a potion that turns people into the opposite gender, isn't so far reached.

That being said, is there any point in the story where I can have selah and the two lesbians killed? Without being forced into an evil mythic path? I'm still very new to this
>>
>>744623482
>I'm here for the roleplay
Then you picked the worst series available for it with the most stifling and character-breaking mandatory choices. You'd get better roleplay out of a F2P MMO or MMO trial than this shit, but most people don't consider those options because they're here for the thing you seem surprised people want.

The point of a Pathfinder game is projecting your builds. If you want to play Pathfinder to roleplay, find a tabletop group, because the only video games that exist for it have modified Paizo APs with factually downgraded stories and weird faggoty characters that tend to be universally reviled.

You should probably install the buff mod, otherwise you spend like 3 hours buffing with each party member before every semi-big fight. And some of these buffs don't last long enough, by the time you are finished, the older buffs may be gone already.

The mod fixes that by allowing you to select specific buff and combines them into one button

Eh, maybe not
If you can't understand why looking at a sequel that is a direct continuation of a previous game (that ends with you discovering divine heritage no less) like this and complaining that it starts too bombastically is utterly stupid, I'm not sure what to tell you, what you have is an IQ problem.

>Name another WRPG
You mean that don't immediately give you either world-ending stakes or a "chosen one" spiel in the first hour? Sure thing, here you go, here's 12:
Baldur's Gate 1
Neverwinter Nights
Neverwinter Nights: Shadows of Undrentide + Hordes of the Underdark
Neverwinter Nights 2 + Mask of the Betrayer
Divinity: Original Sin (not that there are really any good characters anyway)
Nehrim
Enderal
Expeditions: Viking
Expeditions: Rome
Planescape: Torment
Knights of the Old Republic
Knights of the Old Republic: 2

You talk like a fucking moron, you know nobody will take your opinions seriously.
>>
>>744624143
Baldur's Gate 2 is a direct sequel and thus the stakes are tied to the previous games. You are intended to import your character and continue. This is as silly as claiming that the stakes feel unnecessarily high at the start of Wizardry 8 because you failed to play Wizardry 6, import into Wizardry 7, and then import into Wizardry 8. Skill issue.
Baldur's Gate 3 never feels like the stakes are high. The entire beginning of the game, you are detached from everything as you wander around a refugee crisis. The part of "high stakes that feel unearned" is actually having something at stake. As far as you know, for the entire first chapter of the game, you have nothing to gain or lose. You're just some fucking faggot retard fighting goblins to save refugees while otherworldly voices whisper at you threatening to kill you. If you think the constant threat of death is "high stakes" in an RPG, then you probably consider every platformer with holes and game with a hunger bar "high stakes".

So yeah, it seems like you've never played any WRPGs.

>Name another WRPG
Try Ultima, which is the cornerstone of RPGs to begin with and has half a dozen good games under it's belt. If this wasn't your go-to, then you are absolutely out of your element here. Or are you asking specifically for CRPGs like Icewind Dale, which doesn't fit your narrative at all, like the rest of the infinity engine games? Temple of Elemental Evil was even re-released not too long ago yet you just pretend that doesn't exist. But why would you be discussing CRPGs specifically when most people would first stop at Arcanum or Fallout?
>>
>>744626862
I am pretty sure you can get the Orc Dyke killed at multiple points, and I know for a fact you can kill Seelah yourself, there's at least one decision on some quest where if you try to do a thing she sides against you and goes hostile, there's probably more but I didn't take her everywhere due to how bland she is.

I am not sure about the troon, I haven't seen any options that would make xir hostile.

>>744620270
a game that's overall worse than kingmaker
the first one stumbles into quite a few of the same pitfalls as the sequel, but pace and theming is simply superior
most importantly: kingmaker has a total of 3 based manlet companions harrim haters gtfo you don't know what comedy is while wotr has 1 based manlet and 1 cringe manlet maybe even 2 if you count staunton, which makes the second game objectively quantifiably worse
>>
>>744627692
You can prefer the setting, stakes, and tone of Kingmaker, but Wrath is objectively an improvement in almost every area.

>pace ... is simply superior
>Kingmaker
You cannot be serious. Skipping 6 months because you finished that chapter's main quest is standard for that game, KM has notoriously awful pacing.

Also Regill is worth the entire KM cast alone, the companions in that game suck hard and their personal quests and dialogues are comically front- or back-loaded. Camcam and Wendu are great, Woljif can be a bro, amd Seelah is massively overhated by underage culture warriors.

skipping time in two week stretches for rank ups and then catching after the main quest is indeed bad, but between pre-drezen acts and the excusrsion into abyss, i'll fucking take it
also kingdom mismanagement > bootleg homm, but that's harder to gauge due to PLEASE NEUTER THIS MECHANIC INTO NOTHINGNESS options

>the companions in that game suck hard
as i said, the density of based manlets is my main metric
and as far as everybody else is concerned, i am way more willing to tolerate funny retards than traitors and lunatics, with wotr it's always feast or famine, leaning towards famine
>Camcam and Wendu are great
understandable, have an awful day
>>
>>744628325
The entire game is about redemption and forgiveness, and questioning what exactly good and evil is, no shit you're meant to give the misguided mortal retard a chance to fix himself.

>>744628540

>no bro you don't get it wendy is so good once you see that specific route in her questline {X} hours later

into the woodchipper wendog goes, but daeran falls under the based retard category, he can stay
that's what i mean by "feast or famine" btw, first three characters i am always glad to pick (banter-wise), but then the last two slots might as well be free
while in kingmaker i only had to tolerate linzi, and even then her greatest crime was the printing press incident

Rogue trader is significantly feel more power fantasy than pathfinder games since you can punch above weight AND the game also let you break it as much as you can with reasonable effort(lack of prebuffing bullshit really helps.) If paizo had any brain they should shit on 1E purist and make 2E pathfinder CRPG so newcomers don't see 1 million laundry list of buffing and rightfully fucked off afterwards. And keep it 4 man party, owlcat games proved that 6 man party doesn't fucking work on the ruleset without buffing everyone sky high.

The angel path has several specific dialogue options when people bring up allowing a demon in your party isn't very angel of you. Even avoiding her romance you can stand up for her with path options essentially saying you can read alignment and see the light inside her. She's always super thankful, and you can see it means a lot for a angel incarnation to recognize that.
>>
>>744630510
>The angel path has several specific dialogue options when people bring up allowing a demon in your party isn't very angel of you
No it doesn't, the only piece of reactivity involving Arueshalae and the Angel path is the one you mentioned about seeing her soul, when Galfrey throws her meltie. And Galfrey complaining about her happens regardless of your path
>>

I just finished this playthrough man. You get 2-3 in act 3, like a ton in act 4 including the Nocticula one you mentioned, and at least two in act 5. You might even get one in Drezen siege, but I left her in the jail.

I specced her into elven cure blades and gave her Second Chance, she was my scaled fist dex/cha main tank so the bonuses to hit on every miss helped offset the crane wing defensive penalties. Curve blades being 2handed means you get 1.5x dex to damage from mythic finesse and the 2handed bonuses on mythic power attack She also gets great mileage out of the Cloak of Sweet Lies like this.
I think she ended up Dirge Bard 11/Mutation Warrior 6/Scaled Fist 2/Demonslayer 1 and she was untouchable on Core.

How's Eldritch Archer in this game? In Kingmaker he was pretty strong, basically a wizard combined with a ranger, and you could do a full attack as a ranger, then throw a fireball as well on the same turn.

Any anons have some advice for picking a race/class for Kingmaker for a first time player? I'm just going to go with the normal difficulty as I don't know about Pathfinder's systems overall. I've been thinking of doing it before WotR as the latter has a more epic scale of events and Kingmaker coming first. I have all the DLC for Kingmaker as far as I know. I'm most interested in playing
>Elf
>Aasimar
>Half Elf
>Human
from a a RP standpoint for first char. Classes there are a ton of options and some it seems you can only pick later with certain stats (Arcane Trickster, Eldritch Knight, Duelist, Aldori Swordlord - which is odd considering I thought Aldori focus was on dueling swords etc), but aside from some of those I was thinking maybe one of the
>Alchemist
>Druid
>Inquisitor
>Magus
>Paladin
>Ranger
>Rogue
>Sorcerer
>Fighter (specifically Aldori Defender?)
classes, not sure if basic or one of the variants in most cases. I like the idea of the Magus (and many of its variants) , Eldritch Knight, Aldori Swordlord but some of those seem to come later. I thought maybe starting as Aldori Defender may be an "easy" starting playthrough?

Also, any suggestions for
>Kingmaker Mods
I see there's a huge fucking portrait mod on Nexus which looks worthwhle given I was looking at the default ones and they literally just seem like other character portraits from the game (ie the dashing swashbuckler character seems to be the leader of that Varnhold's Lot DLC campaign). Any others worthwhile? or things I should know going into it?
>>
>>744644372
Race depends on your class. As far as class goes I'd go for something charisma based since you're going to be a governor of a region.
So Paladin/Sorcerer/The cha based Magus subclass.

Haven't played Kingmaker in ages, if bubble buffs exists for it get that.
>>
>>744645525
>As far as class goes I'd go for something charisma based since you're going to be a governor of a region.
This doesn't have to be a hard rule, though. Inquisitor has the Acolyte background which inverts Charisma and Wisdom for social check purposes, for example.

Probably fine, though for whatever reason people just don't seem to harp on about Magus like they did for Kingmaker.

>>744644372
I always like Aasimar Scaled Fist Monk, it's a CHA class so good for governance and the monk's unarmed idle animations will have him doing aerobics during throne room scenes which is always pretty funny. It's very strong and flexible for a martial too.

Ahh, if you're playing another sort of class is there a way to make up for it? I know the one Magus has native Sorc powers instead of Wizard powers, but even Aldori Defender seems to have Persuasion as a one of its core traits or whatever so I thought maybe that would work for the social stuff which of course I plan to focus on too. It does seem odd to have a lot of the game's management kingdom elements hobbled unless you play a Cha based class?

I don't see anything labeled bubble buffssFor mods (at least on Nexus, anywhere else worth checking out?) I see the highest ratings are for
>Bag of Tricks
which seems to be a lot of little tweaks and possibly cheats/hacks
>Respecialization
apparently the base game has no respec feature
>Portrait pack
I'm definitely getting at least the "Tier 1, best quality" versions since there are few portraits by default that aren't just other chars in the story!
>Mods to add new races/classes
Not sure if these are worth it but probably won't bother to start as there is enough of both etc.

Literally the only thing holding him back is his weak chapter 1 performance but by the gods does he grow into a god later

Even the subclasses are great, i think living deity is insane in particular because of the auto-empower on lighting spells from wind revelation working with fused spells

Alright it's been sitting in my library for a while and I finished Rogue Trader last week.
I played two campaigns of the pf2e TTRPG so I know the basics. I'm confident I can build functional characters, but I'm no optimization god.

Its better about its start than kingmaker for sure.
In wotr you are brought into the city against your will, fall straight down into a hole, become a chosen one twice before you leave the hole, and then have no chance of fighting your way out of the city. With the city having the stakes of "If we blow up the world is covered in demons" and then while you are in the city you become the chosen one up to 4 more times, and that shits weird isn't it? And then you fight off the big bad in the city and get oromoted before you can leave.
You find out more of the hook by the middle of chapter 3.
>>
>>744638643
Kingmaker starts with you being an adventurer and taking a job and getting told at the job briefing that you are going to be king of a place because the questgiver says so and because you hate the gnome whos bullying you.
Its worse than wotr in terms of forced unearned power.

Then took all 10 levels of dragon disciple for balanced stats before going back to sorcerer for more spells.

the only problem with kingmaker is how the country who actually holds the territory is just a-okay with the pc declaring it a separate kingdom partwya through the game

Again, you didn't play the game, the entire point is getting your own BARONY (not a kingdom). That's why all the adventurers are there (that includes you) Jamandi essentially wants her own puppet to give her an edge against the Surtovas, and you are picked as leader because she comes to the conclusion that you and Tartuccion stood out among the rest, everything is properly explained, play the game
>>
>>744663839
Yeah but the issue is nobody knowing what the quest or reward is before they fucking show up and having no option to bow out. I get that its top secret that they want you to basically steal the lamd as a power play, but if everybody was established to be a superbadass who went there knowing the reward was land and a title, instead of giving the player the roleplay option to not want to be king (because the tabletop version was designed with only one player in the party getting the title), then it would actually be part of the set-up. If I want to play a reluctant hero the plot shouldn't start with "you're going to quit adventuring and be king because I want to make a powerplay and I'm obviously blatantly openly using you as a pawn" it should give a better reason for the player charactef to desire that outcome in universe rather than player outside of the game knowing what the title of the game is.

Really this. So many fucking buffs and I LIKE BUFFS.
You know it's bad when there's a mod specifically for setting partywide buffs to a button.

Besides that I really prefer the 5/6 niggas in a group as opposed to BG3's 4. Also the camp dialogues are actually more fleshed out in WotR. I loved stopping and watching the party banter.

Regill best asshole.

Why not? Give him an animal companion. Nobody is going to mess with someone riding a hyppogriff even if he's a gnome.

constant is the key word. you will need minimal buffs for the harder trash encounters on core. also, it's much more forgiving than kingmakers equivalent. if you genuinely complain about wotr on core you probably just suck.

Arue basically virginifies herself because her whole thing is rebirth. Her align changes to chaotic good and she grows her hymen back.

Almost the samething with Wenduag since she has loving sex with you for the first time her in life. Not the same as raping Lann or being raped by Hosilla.

>>744620270

>>744673860
You already have two of those, camelia and ember. Just play a witch or shaman.
>>
>>744673860
Just do the same thing every caster does, pick spell penetration, spell focus, etc. The mythic equivalents, and that one mythic abilitiy that makes illusions stronger, find all the gear that increase the DC of illusions spells and equip it
>>
>>744674265
She realistically can't do that because of her wings so they just got rid of them for that animation

>>744673860
Don't because as soon as you get Weird the game is broken. It's too tempting not to use it and it just wipes every single encounter in on the first turn.

Magic Deceiver. There's no other CC caster as strong as him.
Any archetype is good, living deity is the best but chronomancer is also awesome because you straight up double your resources per rest.
Since Deceiver has no metamagic, you don't need metamagic feats. Since Deceiver has no need for spell penetration (early on you fuse spells with no spell resistance check, later you add religion bonus to spell penetration and it's a massive MASSIVE boost), either, you have a huge freedom with your feats. I would take the ambushing spells one (forgot the exact name, -2dc on flat footed enemies) and max out several caster schools - enchantment and transmutation in particular.

Why Deceiver exactly? Well, you can fuse spells and execute both effects at once. And as long as the "carrier" (first spell) hits the enemy, the enemy gets subjected to a second effect too, even if theoretically they shouldn't work on them. This means slow + hold person turns into mass hold monster - a level 9 spell at third level. Remember gargoyles? Use a no-spell resistance carrier with blind as payload and cuck their sky high AC. Undeads are annoying? Turn them into dogs since it also dumps their charisma they use for their health. Some enemy is swimming in buffs? Combine dispel and arcana theft, and now you have all these buffs instead. It can make himself pseudo-Weird and custom tailor it for the weakest enemy saves. On first level you can do aoe stun with no spell resistance. You wiil never want to play another caster.
Oh, and they sacrifice nothing in terms of damage either because they can fuse chain lighting with disintegrate or any other effect.

Since they are level 6 casters technically, you just need two abundant spell mythic feats. They are great elemental barrage users too because they can fuse two elemental spell types, this includes sonic damage which is barely resisted by anything.

It's a high level campaign about fighting demon lords. Your character isn't normal and your companions aren't normal and your enemies aren't normal so why would the stakes be normal?

Not really, no. Mage gameplay is 10/10 of you actually engage with the gameplay mechanics

It's an isometric CRPG like Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Neverwinter Night, Planetscape Torment, and Fallout. Literally what the fuck were you expecting? You're asking for something that's not present in the genre.

there's the problem, you unironically lack reading comprehension skills. which part of my paragraph denigrating every part of the game but the music suggested to you that i found the game super enjoyable or spent a lot of time with it relative to other crpgs (or other games in general, for that matter)? i added that context to make it clear that i played the game to completion before properly forming my negative opinion of it. maybe playing the game four times and missing introductory dialogue for three of them is the cute boast you need to concern yourself with.

Evidently not. What a retarded question. When there are elements that blatantly break suspension of disbelief, it becomes impossible to suspend your disbelief.

Last Sarkorians is akin to a RT DLC; a new companion, new class options, and 10+ hours of new shit integrated into the main campaign

Normally I would agree, but in this instance - not really, no. The absolute dogshit quality writing is so all-pervasive that you've basically asked for an example of a part of the ocean that contains water. Pick any part you want, it's all wet.

Nearly single bit of dialogue is completely cringeworthy, from characters being totally illogical flanderizations, to narrative choices that make absolutely zero sense, to wordsmithing that vacillates between "reddit fanfiction" and "tumblr fanfiction", it's literally all bad and every single part of it is bad.

You do have to let Owlcat off the hook a little bit because the general overarching narrative was taken from the Adventure Module created by Paizo, and Paizos writers are unironic tumblr feminist women. However, this does not excuse the extremely poor quality of the moment to moment writing which comprises the rest of this literarily disastrous shitheap.

Yeah, it's not real life which is why the game can have those. Besides pathfinder is more like a grab bag of stuff the creators thought was cool. There's gunslingers, pirates, and androids. Which is something you can do when you don't have to model rea life.

Black people are real, you understand this right?
And you know that Golarion, the fictional magical realm where Pathfinder APs take place in, is full of gods and magic, airships and teleportation spells, and almost every fantasy trope you can imagine right?
You see Qadira on the map, right next to Osirion and Katapesh? Those lands are respectively Arabian, Ancient Egyptian, and the Middle East, all full of browns and blacks. You see the Shining Kingdoms just north of them, on the same land mass? That's your "medieval european inspired fantasy," King Arthur and the like.

According to your own map, they've got the ethnic makeups placed wrong.
They've just taken tropes and placed them with no care for how they would blend and transition from one to the next, in regards to both their neighbours and their geography/climate.
And then you have to think about what population sizes those regions could reasonably sustain. Ease of travel (spoiler, it's not easy just looking at natural boundaries and barriers.)
And then the fact that cities even on Golarion, are not actually all that large in terms of population.
So yeah, far fewer than you seem to think and they would mostly be a novelty outside of coastal regions. And that's novelty as in unusual, not a joke like you undoubtedly read it as.

First playthrough I got her 10 levels of tranquil whisperer bard and 10 levels of her ranger class. With mythic performance the ac bonus becomes quite nice and enduring spells gave her a very nice collection of buffs for the party.

You can't call it wrong when it's a map of the setting we're discussing.
The 3000 BC Egyptian Empire is just an airship ride over a small sea away from the 600 AD King Arthur land of knights and chivalry, this is an objective fact in regards to Golarion.
If this is too much for you then just admit that Pathfinder is not the setting for you and move on, rather than trying to argue that someone with brown skin couldn't possibly wield the holy power of the gods in the fight against demonic monsters from the plane of superhell.

Aru is pretty strong though and her stats are absolutely busted. She's one of the few chars I just level straight through her base class as.

>ease of travel
There are multiple types of teleportation and fantastical vehicles like airships. Even something like a large boat can be easily commanded by casting a spell like skeleton crew.

>Golarion is a kitchen sink clusterfuck of literally everything
Yes, everyone knows this and has known it for decades, why do people struggle so hard accepting this?

Even on Core you can just whack some bard levels on her and let her shred from the backline.

Or I can just keep her as a ranger and have her as a pretty disgusting ranged blender. Rangers in wotr are pretty strong even if you don't go Demonslayer or SCM

>>744698698
Her str is too low, her class is one of the worst ranger ones and she's forced to be an archer which are not very good
>>
>>744698884
Sure, but someone needs to be the Good Hope/IC bitch, and it might as well be the succ with the ranger levels.

ngl family, I consider difficulties above core to be meme difficulties so maybe she falls off or something on unfair but that shit just isn't fun to play for me.
So you could be right, and I could be wrong but on core she cruises through as straight ranger.
>>744699290
I don't disagree and say she could have been better as maybe a skald or bard, but like outside of Lann (Who is shit) and Wenduag (If you build her for throwing axes), the game had 0 ranged martials.

You confuse possibility with ease. Not many, actually travel particularly far, even in Golarion.
Think prevalence, expense, danger of the trip, piracy and a whole host of other risks.

>>744698642
Even within its own geography and internal logic it's wrong. That's the point.

Pathfinder was literally created by what you would call the "woke" crowd (I really do not like that word, but I don't really have a better way of easily encapsulates the kind of person that is basically a female California college campus progressive). As such, it appeals mostly to that same crowd so you get a lot of them that flock to these threads which is why they basically become /bluesky/.

This isn't really Owlcat's fault - Paizo is the one who created the setting and they content, Owlcat just licenses it in order to make money selling a game. However they are the developer so that's what people look at - same reason people blame Larian for BG3 being "woke" even though basically all the progressive content in it has been in DnD for like 2 decades now.

Wrong, it was created by 3e grognards who hated 4e enough to make their own version of 3e they could continue playing, the woke infiltration came later; before the faggotisation of WOTC, but still years after the early days of PF.

No woke studio would allow the tongue-in-cheek god of pedos to make it to print, not even if presented as an extreme evil.

Nah, Paizo was worried about Owlcat at first given they are Russian but Owlcat reassured them about their values. Time has borne it out.

>you will need minimal buffs for the harder trash encounters on core
>Don't cast death ward 6 times everytime you rest? Enjoy level drain to the face
>Don't cast remove disease 6 times everytime you rest? Enjoy getting stat drained by disease
>Don't cast heroism 6 times everytime you rest? Enjoy not having +2 roll on everything where all the checks and stats are inflated to the high heavens
Basically fuck non-communal 1 minute spells especially if the communal version duration is fixed at 1 minute e.g. protection from alignment. The tabletop doesn't have this buffing madness problem because the encounter balanced around 4 man party and therefore less chance of people having both divine buffer and arcane buffer turning the martials to superman. Hell, the combat maneuvers is basically there so you can have magic free party by letting the extra martials do the debuffing themselves.

>>744701881
this could be easily fixed if they just added communal versions of buffing spells, even if they're high level ones, why they didn't do it is beyond me
well, they did, but angel only of course
