v1ld posted:It should probably automatically add all area effects based on duration. Will take a look at doing this later. Turns out this isn't a good idea. There's no ready way to automatically determine which area effects are safe to dismiss. The list of 184 things the game considers area effects contains a large variety of things like PoolHealEffect, PatrolAuraAreaEffect, BlackDragonFrightfulPresenceArea - too much variety to easily categorize. The code itself doesn't provide any categorization that's safe and simple. So, the current list-based approach is the right one. Send the names of area effect spells that both persist after combat ends and have a long duration and they can be added to the list. Paranoid Peanut posted:Adding all area effects should work. See above, not a good idea it turns out - many things are considered area effects by the game for mechanics purposes that should never be dismissed by us. I'll take a look at the ones in your list. Send any more as you find them.

I don't know if anyone's recently played this part, but I've received the artisan quest Onslaught from Dragn. I'm tasked with retrieving three pieces of armor from three different merchants. Only when I look it up online, I just see the quest Lawbringer...is this a recent change?

All I want to know is if I've cleared a certain explored area. That is indeed frustrating, since 'You last visited this location on XX' applies even if you load an autosave from just before you enter the area. The first playthrough where I was hunting unique encounters for Ferniras, it took me 3 hours of manual checking to realize there was 1 area I had left alone

Bear treant is one of the game's early "you're not just running in and hitting stuff, are you?" checks. Although that can still work with a couple of lucky crits. The other one is the swarms in the spider cave. You need to be doing some reading of loading screens that very rarely come up.

Targeting touch AC is the easiest option. Jubilost should take them down each very fast. AoE options also work. Just be mindful about what bypasses spell resistance/magic immunity and what does not.

Spells don't tend to work well against golems because Pathfinder golems are immune to magic. Spells which do not allow spell resistance will work, but the vast majority will just do nothing whatsoever to them (this also applies to Kineticist blasts -- energy blasts like fire won't do anything to them).

Phlegmish posted:Yeah. That brings me to a question about Lonely Barrow, which I have yet to clear. What's the best tactic against golems? Their AC is insane. Just a note here, but the golems in the Lonely Barrow are blatantly Iron Golems (possibly supposed to be slightly weakened variants due to the names), which are WAY above the CR of everything else on that main level (yes, even the Lonely Warrior). They're also guarding a hidden door dealing with something that you can't do anything with at that point in the game. i.e. It's very much an "ignore this and come back later" offshoot area with much more difficult enemies to encourage this. As mentioned, they have fairly high AC and HP and DR, hit extremely hard (and have a small breath weapon), and as golems are basically completely immune to anything that allows spell resistance (outside a very few exceptions), so realistically you just have to boost your attack enough to deal with them - likely not realistically doable at the level you probably came across it outside very, very specific tactics.

corn in the bible posted:I think I tripped them probably, because I tripped everyone if possible and it often worked Tripping (especially with a patch of grease or a bunch of ball bearings, Home Alone style) is a time-honored method of clowning golems. EDIT: Lord Koth posted:Just a note here, but the golems in the Lonely Barrow are blatantly Iron Golems (possibly supposed to be slightly weakened variants due to the names), which are WAY above the CR of everything else on that main level (yes, even the Lonely Warrior). For reference, two bog standard Iron Golems would be a CR 15 encounter, which is supposed to drain 25% of the resources (spells, HP, etc) of a party of four level 15 characters. It's a fight which wouldn't be out of place in the final or penultimate dungeon of the majority of the Adventure Paths. Golems are no joke and of the standard types Iron Golems are close to the strongest. These probably are weakened a little but yeah, they're not a fight you're expected to be capable of winning when you can first run across them.

I actually just beat them, but I brute-forced it with a buffed level 10 party. No clever tactics on my part. You're right though, there's nothing else I can do in that dungeon, I haven't received the associated quest (?) yet.

If you have a few DDoors you can get some completely out of level loot including the best dueling sword in the game. (Takes 4 to be safe) If you are not careful, well, hope you saved. A party trying to fight that will wipe 100% of the time if they don't know what's in there.

Is there a mod that makes people aware of the challenge rating in each area? I feel like that would be really helpful when exploring the Stolen Lands. Like, if you land on a spot, a message comes up saying "Recommended Level - X" without spoiling its contents, with another message that pops up if there are separate dungeons in the area. That way you don't always get your rear end kicked and waste time trying to beat a frustrating dungeon & monster that is way above your ability to do so. The point of most D&D/Pathfinder games is to fight things that are roughly around your level, yet I felt that I was constantly running into encounters that would wipe out my party in one turn in Kingmaker.

If you don't want to run into too-hard enemies you can stick to the quests in your journal. That's the guide to what the game thinks you're ready for.

DeadBonesBrook posted:Is there a mod that makes people aware of the challenge rating in each area? I feel like that would be really helpful when exploring the Stolen Lands. On chapter 1, do not go into Tranquil river bend or Ratnook hill until you are at least lv 4. Maybe 5. From chapter 2 and onward, do not go in the Cave in the Bridge over gudrin river until you are at least 6-7. Also, Do not do areas west of the side of verdant chapters(till you hit border with Pitax) until you are at least level 8-9. Every other area available to you is on your level range by default, due to how they open up. Finally, in the Witch Hut in the swamp, you can ignore the Enraged Owlbear group for a time. There are still some encounters that are tough, but hitting things out of your level range is actually unlikely. The hilarious early period where midgame random encounters popped up in chapter 1 due to bugs notwithstanding.

Alright, Vordakai's tomb is proving to be more difficult than anticipated, and I, uh, did not bring any supplies. I'm at the Soul Eater fight and I'm down to my last Haste/Slow, don't know how much more dungeon is left. You guys got any tips? My party is Valerie, Amiri, Harrim, Linzi, Octavia and my MC sorcerer, all with predictable builds.

They have added supplies in the tomb after a certain patch, so finishing the floor and checking if it was in any loot you missed may help(though I think they are all on the second floor) You do not have Jaethal so she can tank stat draining opponents or kinetic sisters to kill most enemies resource free and second floor has a few hard encounters. If it comes to the worst, edit in some supplies in your inventory. Reload will be too muchl since the barbarian merchant in the camp has left so you will need to go too far back.

First playthrough I smelled a trap and I accidentally locked my casters in the entrance area away from my frontline, it was Not Good. Luckily it only persisted to the first skill challenge location changing thing.
