[@Vagran]

For my fellow Turn Based brothers and sisters, the hotkey to go back and forth between turn based and real time is the "T" key by default. So you can swap to realtime, set your charges for your alpha strike, send them in, and after the first shots land swap back to turn based if you want that Tabletop feel. Having nearly your whole team swing first before initiative starts is a real game changer.

[@cRPGBro]

You are 100% correct! I didn't really think about switching it on the fly, but that surely can help even Turn Based players get that powerful ambush going!

[@Outmind01]

There are dozens of us, DOZENS!

[@kiratt77]

I wanted to comment the same thing. Generally there are times when you want to use real time even if you fight turn base. Also if you play real time rarely, instead make it quick just keep pressing V for slow motion, and releasing V also insta stops, you can re issue command when the AI send your caster trough an attack of opportunity

[@MirridonOnslaught]

Thanks bro!!! I needed this

[@Flagonborn]

@@kiratt77 I really wish they’d make that slower speed a toggle rather than something you have to hold

[@Kanzer7TS]

The tediousness of buffing is one of the main things that keeps me from doing more playthroughs. When I saw the bubblebuff mod in this video I was like "WAIT, WHAT?!" total game changer. Thanks for making great content.

[@cRPGBro]

You're welcome, and thanks for the comment!

[@mordsith1893]

I said the exact same thing. No idea that was a real thing.

[@puriewhite]

Im by no means a beginner, with couple hundred hours in both Kingmaker nad Wotr, but I just learned of that buff mod you've shown. That's going to be a lifechanger for my future playthroughs

[@cRPGBro]

Trust me when I say that BubbleBuffs REALLY is a life changer! I talk about it in my previous Mod Guide for Wrath: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnLHpX6gpJ2egdU

[@ColinGrym]

Thank you for continuing to make excellent WoTR content, especially your build guides. My favorites so far are the companion builds because they are helpful for every playthrough no matter what I choose for my character. I appreciate that you explain why you choose things, because sometimes I change your builds slightly and I like to know what I'm losing/gaining by customizing things for my ideal party. If you are looking for video ideas, I'd like to hear your thoughts on something like top 3 class choices for each mythic path. Not a full guide for each class (that would be a huge project and a lot to ask), just a brief description of what each mythic adds to what classes for a top few picks. I know you love your Angel clerics/oracles and Demon kineticists, but I'm less certain what to pick for many of the other Mythic paths.

[@cRPGBro]

Apologies for the reply delay, as I was really busy with the Aeon run + Guide. Thank you so much for the superthanks and donation, friend! These ideas sound interesting, I think I'm just waiting to fully release Guides for ALL Mythics to do a complete "Best Mythic Paths Ranked" or so video!

[@ColinGrym]

@@cRPGBro No worries - that Aeon video obviously involved a lot of testing and theory. Your guides are the best I've found by a huge margin, and I just wanted to buy you a drink or something say thanks :) I am quite happy with the content you continue to put out, and look forward to your analysis of the various mythic paths.

[@benfl9636]

Just started playing this game and I got so overwhelmed by the amount of info it throws at you, glad i found your videos, very helpful and really easy to follow!

[@cRPGBro]

Thank you! Always glad to help, especially new players.

[@newindika]

I noticed the early level 3 on the maze. Disabling XP for non-active companions is a also a good beginner tip and a huge boost to exp early game.

[@cRPGBro]

You are correct. It was actually my first time doing it for Unfair, and it did make a huge difference for Chapter 1, where even a 1 level difference can matter a lot!

[@kiratt77]

ahh, I consider myself an expert, played 5-6 unfair full runs, but never thought of this. bit of a cheese, but most of the tips for unfair are. :) Thanks!

[@V3x0r]

But in the maze you don't have any non-active companions? Is there still a bit being shaved off your xp?

[@newindika]

@@V3x0r You don't receive full exp unless you disable it. When you have the full party, then it's time to enable it again.

[@vitormaneschy2522]

dude i love ur vídeos. There are a lot of builds that people make and guides but they are basically Just a recipe. With ur vídeos i feel like i actually learn something and don't need to follow every step of the builds u make.

[@cRPGBro]

Thanks! That's the goal, I like explaining the reasoning behind each choice to truly help others understand how the game mechanics work as to give them freedom to later use what they learn the way they see fit 😀

[@Billybobob32]

Amazing work as always!

[@cRPGBro]

Thank you!

[@DarkRubicant]

Probably the best tip was the waiting for the right animation after evil eye to charge. Great tip. Thank you.

Thanks cRPG Bro for your intelligent and helpful videos I am now much improved Pathfinder Kingmaker / Wrath Of The Righteous player that now plays on higher difficulties in part due to your guidance.

[@funkymonkey315]

Very useful!! Been following your guides and builds and it helps so much. I was so overwhelmed that i thought of quitting the game, but i just know i need more time and need to play he game to understand. Stop following around level 14 and can say i can start build my own character now! thank you so much. I only disagree with one thing, HOW DARE YOU ASK ME TO USE MY CONSUMABLESSS?? i need to hoard them all and save it later!!

[@cRPGBro]

Glad to hear you're having fun with the game now, Pathfinder can be complex at first but after a while as you learn more about the mechanics and such, it can really make for a very fun and fulfilling experience 😀 And yep, I used to hoard all my potions and consumables in games like Baldur's Gate too, thankfully I've long been "cured" of it 😁

[@Deltium5683]

great tips!

[@subj3kt172]

You have become my go-to for all things WOTR. Now if I could just decide what I actually want to play...

[@crazyfnjoey]

Lol, pick what you want then go with Legend mythic path. You can be a wizard, warrior, and rogue all in one.

[@cRPGBro]

Glad I could help, friend!

[@AlphaPsionic]

Great tip on the Charge+Evil eye combo. A variation of this is what currently helping me on my unfair playthrough. Just got to Act3. I throw in a Vital strike from Lann, and charge with my front line and ask arue to attack at the same time. Lann and Arue are with G.Inv targeting the flat-footed AC, and also have ' Bit of Luck' from sosiel to counter the damned load dice of this game XD As the round begins, unless it's a super-tough encounter like a glabrezu, most enemies just explode instantly using this tactic, and even allows me to mow down groups. Just used the same tactic at 'Greengates', and mowed down that group with the Derakni Devastator, Vrocks, kalavakus..etc. Throw in a guarded hearth and it gets even more obscene.

[@cRPGBro]

Yep, the ambush strategy is really one of my faves, especially for Unfair!

[@AdamOfTime]

Lots of good info in here

[@mattdespard6576]

One thing I can't believe you didn't mention here are the summoning items. Tankard of Free Spirit in particular has saved my butt on Unfair more times than I can remember, and you get it right in Act 1

[@kiratt77]

It can also stun all of your melee characters at once and foil your plans :)

[@paralysekid]

@@kiratt77 Hahahahah, happened to me.

[@cRPGBro]

Summons can be useful as distractions indeed, or even for damage with Creeping Doom + Mark of Justice!

[@34blackula]

lol I was expecting a companion build or your Aeon build. This guide should help the unfamiliar players out a lot though so good looking out.

[@cRPGBro]

Companion Builds I try to release on separate videos, Aeon Guide will also be very soon, just need to finish Chapter 6! I wanted something for new players due to the newly released Enhanced Edition, and I know the beginning/early game can be quite daunting.

[@34blackula]

@@cRPGBro No doubt cause this game is not Solasta or Divinity Original Sin. Love both those games but WOTR is way more complexed and way more fun to play to me. Just way more creativity, items, battles, and laughs. There is some good chatter in Solasta and Divinity but not like WOTR.

[@gwelengu]

I assume a lot of the gameplay advice is basically relevant for Kingmaker? I mean they are both Pathfinder 1e games. Great content, I haven’t found a KZbin channel that explained stuff as clearly as you do. It’s really helped me get a feel for these overwhelming games 😅

[@nialhanes7636]

Love your videos! Can you make one on completing the sadistic game design achievement?

[@cRPGBro]

Thank you! I have tried this Achievement yet, but I have heard many good things about Kineticist for it since it basically doesn't require much resting if any!

[@Alister222222]

Another tip to get past demon physical resistance in Act I is to get your weapon up to +3 enchantment (or higher), which will make it count as cold iron. Only a bit later that you can get it to +5, making your weapons count as good as well - this is very possible before even the end of Act 1. The simplest way to do this is by using the Greater Magic Weapon spell, which you can cast from level 5 on a wizard, and will last for 5 hours; it will change a +2 weapon into a +3, making it effectively cold iron for 5 hours. The way it is coded, if you cast it at different amounts, it will stack, meaning you can case the L1 spell Magic Weapon to get a +1 to enchantment, and if you cast Greater Magic weapon at caster-level 8, it will give a +2 bonus, which because it's a different amount counts as a different source and will stack, giving you a total increase of +3, making it possible to get your +2 weapons to +5 weapons very early in the game (which means they will inherently pass magic, cold iron, adamantine, and alignment-based damage resistances). A level 6 arcanist can boost their caster level to 8 using potent magic, so can do this by or before the Gray Garrison. In addition to this, some classes can inherently buff their weapon's enchantment bonuses, such as maguses and paladins, and this should also allow you to bypass demon damage resistance.

[@Krothu]

doesn't magic weapon and greater magic weapon specify that they only bypass DR/magic ? abd not any other damage reduction

[@Alister222222]

@@Krothu By making a non-magic weapon +1, yes, this causes them to become magic and bypass magic damage resistance. However, in the Pathfinder rules, once the enhancement bonus reaches certain levels the weapon automatically counts as bypassing other kinds of damage resistance (+2 = silver, +3 = cold iron, +4 = adamantine, +5 = alignment). I can confirm (unless something has broken or changed in a recent patch!) from my own games that this rule is properly implemented in WotR, and +3 weapons will hit most demons (i.e. the ones whose dr is cold-iron based), and getting your bonus to +3 via any means at all is sufficient, whether that is from the Magic Weapon spell or a class ability.

[@Krothu]

@@Alister222222 Yes that is true if the weapon enchantment was that bouns. The spell goes like this "This spell functions like magic weapon, except that it gives a weapon an enhancement bonus on attack and damage rolls of +1 per four caster levels (maximum +5). This bonus does not allow a weapon to bypass damage reduction aside from magic." as you can see it specifies not bypassing any damage reduction expet magic

[@Alister222222]

@@Krothu I can confirm 100% that it works as I described (at least it has up until my last run, a few weeks ago) - I cannot say if that is a bug or not. Modifying your weapon's enchantment level via a spell, in WotR at least, does in fact cause it to bypass the varying types of damage resistance. I do assume that there are some coding issues around the spell, such as it appears they have used the same buff for Magic Weapon and Greater Magic Weapon, or specifically they have 5 different buffs, for each level (+1 ,+2, +3, etc), and they don't check to make them exclusive. If you have magic weapon on a weapon for +1, and cast greater magic weapon for +1, it will overwrite the magic weapon for no gain. However if you cast greater magic weapon it for +2, it will apply as a separate buff that does in fact stack. The only thing it seems to check for is to cap the enchantment to +5. When you examine a weapon that has been enchanted in this way, you'll see that it's enhancement bonus is given as the new level. The way it is coded, it appears to count the weapon, for all purposes, as having the new enhancement level, and I can absolutely confirm that allows it to bypass the things a weapon of that level should bypass (again with the disclaimer that I haven't played a full run since the last patch). There are other quirks to the spell that work but probably shouldn't, such as you are able to enchant a kinetic blade, which is a bit of a tip for any kineticists out there that want another +5 to hit that you might not think you could get.

[@cRPGBro]

That is a really nice tip indeed! I often forget higher enchantments can also bypass certain DR types.

[@VestigialLung]

I’m going to be starting WotR as soon as I finish Kingmaker (been thinking that for awhile now, and Kingmaker just keeps proving to be a longer game than I anticipated). Something I’ve been mulling over is mixing a couple of Paladin levels (CHA to saves) with rogue, monk, or ranger (targeting evasion) and a hefty dose of inquisitor for its evasion equivalent for fort and will saves, targeting sort of an “oh your ability offers a saving throw? That’s cute” build. In your experience, would that seem to be viable path (I’ll probably play somewhere around a middling difficulty; I’m not really looking for a punishing experience). Functionally sort of a particularly survivable second rank fighter (reach weapons) who throws around a lot of buffs.

Protection from Evil will help a ton with the succubus. Prevents her mind control/charm.

[@chanmeds9557]

I just played Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous about a week ago and I'm just overwhelmed with all the mechanics in this game (combat, defense, builds, stats, etc) however I'm so hooked with the story which is good. Still currently in Chapter 4. If there's one thing I want Owlcat to do is to be more specific on the definitions or reword it to be more understandable and probably give small video examples on some mechanics. I can't wrap my head around Hellfire Ray or other ranged magic spells as a "touch attack" when it basically tells you to touch the enemy. Lmao! Also some feats and abilities are like so tricky in their description like some of it says adds natural armor so it cant probably stack with other natural armor or buffs you have but it does. They couldve placed "unique" on some of it to classify that it can stack with other armors etc. It's a bit frustrating'when you're still new to the game but ill continue to play it since since I really like the lore and story. Anyhow, this is my first playthrough and I'm learning alot of new stuff from your videos. Keep it up!

[@cRPGBro]

I think some videos to accompany the mechanics tutorial Owlcat gives you would indeed help a lot!

[@shanemarshall6241]

Could you do a short video highlighting useful mods like Bubblebuffs? I'd never heard of it but this is a gamechanger and folks like Bubbles deserve more shout outs

[@cRPGBro]

[@alanvaladez559]

Really helpful been struggling on Core for a while now as a master of all rogue. Currently stuck at the optional water elemental that my completionist side wont let me just give up on it or lower the difficulty...still fun despite the struggles so far tho. Quick question, would you recommend picking up every piece of loot on every dungeon to sell at the soonest opportunity or should I be more selective with that? Not sure how much of an effect encumbrance will have on my party besides the fact that I'll get fatigue faster

[@cRPGBro]

I have a Guide for Water Elemental on Unfair here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGfEi4J6arWWlbc Ideally you want Grease, but if you don't have it, then you definitely need to charge out of battle and also go for Evil Eye ambush as I show in this guide. Cast Enlarge/Enlarge pots on Seelah + other melees, depending on class of main character you might also have True Strike. I really prefer to leave tanking the Elemental to a pet with a conveniently placed Protection/Resist Cold potion you can find in the Maze. I definitely recommend picking almost everything besides some heavy items with low sell value. Encumbrance is only a problem at the very beginning. If you go with at least 2 Pets, you'll pretty much never get encumbered eventually. Remember that for some dungeons, you can actually leave the loot until when leaving so you don't have to travel inside while encumbered!

[@crazyfnjoey]

Love the videos. I am very grateful that you continue to make these guides since there isn't a ton of material out for WoTR, at least, not proportionally to it's potential in builds and strategy diversity. Do you have a Legend Mythic Path guide? I recently switch to that after I couldn't fully commit to some of the things Zak demands of an emergent Lich.

[@cRPGBro]

Legend is coming up next now that I'm finally done with the Aeon Path 😀

[@pvfpinto]

Hi. I start one run at hard, and was needing to retry every major fight at the maze, but in the end I was able to defeat all. Since I just read that the normal was core, I started a core to see the difference. At the maze every fight seems easy , regarding the water elemental and boss. Should I stays at hard ? I like difficult games and to think the buffs etc that I should use! Thanks for all the pathfinder creations content.

Between you and mort I would have never made it out of act 1. Cheers

[@cRPGBro]

Always happy to help 😀

[@disk3001]

Video idea for ya: Real-Time with pause vs Turn based mode. When I was starting out (and overall) I preferred turn based mode since I can see what was happening and plan my strategy better. But since playing unfair I found that real-time is much easier since the AI is a lot dumber in that mode and you get to get by a lot of encounters that way, where as in turn based mode the AI would more often ignore your front lines and go for the squishy targets and game over you. Also a couple of encounters are just straight BS on turn based (the hidden door during the Gray Garrison assault, where even though you're "surprising" the enemy by coming from a secret passage, they get to go normally and you're in such a tight space against 2 fireball demons. Even with resist fire communal they wiped my squad in 1-2 turns) I still think turn based is more fun, but having every roll displayed front and center can lead to frustration sometimes (like, no way the AI is not cheating by the amount of 1's I am rolling) The cheesiest way of playing is of course starting in real-time for the ambush and then switching to turn based when you closed the distance and damage is dealt

[@stfauth6031]

Fucking 1’s!!! How is it possible that my 5 attacks all rolled 1’s!! I literally went back and grabbed the mythic ability like halfway through and hitting on one’s feels so great, lol!

[@cRPGBro]

It's an interesting idea for a video! I personally prefer Real Time for the faster action and the bigger synergy with Charge + AoOs/Teamwork Feats.

[@rickkybobby8118]

You actually get a full alpha strike turn on turn based as well, see the icon under the enemies, it's showing they aren't getting a turn this round. The drawback is because you go one by one, your characters can end up blockign each other and i don't think you can manipulate the order of actions like you did with Cam on the cultist champion

[@tomutting9935]

You can do the alpha strike, switch to turn-based and then still get a full round with no enemy attacks (because you get advantage on initiative checks if you surprise an enemy). Essentially 2 free rounds.

[@cRPGBro]

That is very good to know, so Ambush really is OP even for turn based 😀

[@bewee]

I flip to turn base during important fights . So I can see what's going on .

It was working for me the last time I did it with Selective Grease for my Aeon run, perhaps it is something only in the newest patch?

[@michaeloxendine178]

I laid down 3 different greases and a pit and a entangle all in one battle. None of them did anything to anyone. I think it must have been a bug. I just ground through the battle anyways though.

I play as angel mythic and want a skald mercenary in my party but in your guides you have skald as trickster. Is it not viable for me to have skald mercenary as an angel? I thouht of a bard as well but it's for azata which isn't suited for me. What do you advice?

[@cRPGBro]

Skald Trickster is just a way to play them for the main character. However, a normal mercenary Skald is fine too, you basically just ignore the Mythic Path specific progression, but keep the rest. I think my latest 2H or Throwing Axe Skald Guide works great for mercs: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGrVnJejabeLhbM

[@violau8550]

I know pet is OP, in fact Seelah with pets has way higher damage than divine weapon bond by far - she can kill few enemies in one turn easy. But the thing is in this game, i felt like pet are destroying the whole game system and balance, its like pet became "must have" especially for tanking, if not your team wont have high survive rate and raw damage power, especially in higher difficulty, its like class without pet became less favor, or everyone has to start with class with pet and then only mix max to other class. I really hope someone can come out with a team to conquer high difficulty level without pet at all, will that doable?

[@cRPGBro]

It is true that pets are so OP that it makes not having them feel akin to losing a lot of potential power. I imagine doing the higher difficulties without pets is certainly doable, but at least on Unfair it means taking a lot longer/more reloads for the early game which I'd find pretty annoying.

[@violau8550]

@cRPG Bro yeah, I did one run with Seelah with divide weapon bond and Seelah with horse, its so much different, the thing is you can use a lot of different buff to replace or enhance weapon damage - in fact since elemental barrage nerfed, a lot of weapon enchantment is pretty useless now, but nothing in this game able to replace pets, and that's why pet is so op.

[@adamkmet8936]

I was wondering ... are reach weapons a good idea when doing mounted combat? Wouldnt that make your pet unable to attack because it is not close enough to the enemy?

[@CheekSoda]

Many pets become Large at level 7 which gives them reach as well. Just something to consider!

[@TheAzureGhost]

on another note, if you ride the Azata specific "mount" you sort of need a reach weapon as the mount has reach from its long neck meaning it will try to stay out of your melee weapon range....

[@cRPGBro]

I have used mounted combat both with and without reach weapons, even with large pets, and it worked fine!

[@michaeloxendine178]

Any scrolls/potions that are must haves before going into gray keep?

[@cRPGBro]

Restoration & Lesser Restoration! Pretty sure one of the Succubus there can Level Drain you for example, and without Restoration you won't be able to recover it, even when resting if you are on Core and above.

[@Lin117]

4:25 Do you have to be in real time mode to use this alpha strike opener? I've tried doing it on turn based but it stops me as soon as the enemies detect me charging.

[@cRPGBro]

It works better in real time, but from what I have heard and experienced, in Turn Based it will still at least shift the first turn order into your favor by having your party act first before the enemies.

[@JulioFrosi]

I struggle with permanent effects while playing on core. For example how to cure negative levels and stuff.

[@cRPGBro]

Usually it's between Lesser Restoration (ability damage) and Restoration (level drain) for most annoying permanent effects. For other ones you have Remove Disease & Blindness, but later Heal is more than enough 😀

[@omgstopturd6566]

Would you do an unfair party build with no pets? I know how OP they are but it ruins the fantasy for me! The thought of running around in the World Wound with pretty much my own zoo is just funny to me. The only one I can stand is Seelahs horse.

[@cRPGBro]

It could be done, but I would find the beginning to be very annoying without pets as that is when you are at your weakest. And pets make great tanks too since if they die, you just rest to bring them back at full HP. For party members you'd have to reload as Raise Dead scrolls can be pretty expensive early on!

should I play on real time or turn based?

[@cRPGBro]

Apologies for late reply, but I prefer real time because it is much better and has great synergy with ambushing/alpha strikes together with Teamwork feats like Outflank.

[@The-Great-Penguin]

I've my own advice for the game. For the love of GOD, prepare restoration. Negative levels and ability drain can cripple you

[@MirridonOnslaught]

Is there any way to fully respec companies? It irritates me the stats are thrown all over the place. It would also be nice to change their classes, if not is there a way to buff mercenaries stats?

[@DinnRaven]

Turn base or real time, what do you prefer?

[@cRPGBro]

I really prefer Real Time, and have actually enjoyed it a lot ever since the days of Baldur's Gate. I know a lot prefer Turn Based, however. Real Time to me is because of how much faster it is, and I think there's a lot of synergy for especially Teamwork Feats in Pathfinder to have all your characters attack "simultaneously". Turn Based I find to be very slow considering how numerous both the battles and also the enemy packs can be, but it's great that you can switch between them at will in Wrath, so you can save Turn Based for battles you prefer instead of against all so called "trashmob" encounters.

[@kromulax5223]

both

[@Alister222222]

I find them both useful in different situations. Some encounters are 100% not designed for turn-based, as they take forever and the mechanics work against you (for example, the Defender's Heart scripted encounter). In turn-based mode, however, you have the ability to make sure your characters are making perfect use of their action, move action, and swift action each round, to maximize their effectiveness. You also have the ability to take five-foot steps in turn based mode, which you do not in real-time mode (to do this, hold ctrl to lock your movement to 5' iirc). The five-foot step is free movement that allows you to step out of an enemy's reach without provoking an attack of opportunity, or reposition yourself for an attack and still make a full attack. It opens up a lot of options you don't have in real-time. That said, real-time generally flows much better in this game, and you'll definitely want to be playing mostly in real-time by the end, because the fights just get so danged huge and long otherwise. Once your build comes together, you can expect to have enough resilience to stay alive for most late game encounters without needing turn-based.

[@artesslior1806]

I do mixed but prefer real time unless the battle is going to be tough.

[@greyfox3954]

Glaive is the favoured weappon if Shelyn, not Baphomet or not? This is why I shat on Cleric and made Sosiel a Two Handed Fighter.

[@schneemilch908]

Shelyn as well as Baphomet has Glaive as favoured weapon.Shelyn wields the Whisperer of Souls, an evil glaive she took from her brother Zon-Kuthon. Baphomet wields the glaive Aizerghaul.

[@birdofhermest]

How'd you get 2 pets at the start of the game?

[@cRPGBro]

You can only have 1 per character, besides Aivu later for Azata. But it's just a matter of multiclassing one of the early companions like Lann & Wenduag into a Pet Class for more!

[@darkcloud9053]

Hey man do u have any monk build ?

[@cRPGBro]

Not yet, but Monk Guide for EE is on my to do list!

Quarterstaff Monk is pretty disgusting in WotR. Dips in DD and Mutation Warrior for extra stats and Mage Armor, I would unlock DD through Stigmatized Witch. There are good Quarterstaffs in every chapter and you scale AC nicely through wis to ac, witch, DD and mutagen.

[@LoblueHaze]

Quick question, who is the other one with the pet?

That would be Lann as a Divine Hound: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pV66kGiIjrVpprs But I also have more updated builds for him here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmOZiIKQiq-hiqc

@@cRPGBro Thanks!

[@tuvarkz9324]

where's the exp trick tho.

[@cRPGBro]

I was thinking of adding it to the Guide, but ended up forgetting I think, welp. The gist of it is to turn XP only for active companions, HOWEVER, be sure to turn it back off when during dialogue recruiting events for new companions, so the new ones will scale fully to whatever level you had at the moment. There are some key points in the story where companions will also fully scale back to your level, even if you already recruited them by doing this, such as after the Gargoyle Attack, I believe.

[@destoc5661]

Thank you for this great guide video. This fame is really not new player friendly. The dice roll rng in combat is pure bullshit. Divinity OS/2 are so much better in this aspect.

[@cRPGBro]

Glad I could help! Wrath can be made a lot more enjoyable once you get the hang of the most important mechanics.

[@Mr_Smith618]

I hate early game so much. So many missed attacks, no $$ for things like potions, and barely any spells for buffing and healing

[@jared.mohammed]

Sell all the equipment you do not need in Chapter 1.

[@Alister222222]

Another way you can get more money in Chapter 1 is to farm random encounters. I tend to do this if I am soloing/2-manning, just run around after you've done all the time-sensitive stuff and kill random encounters in the city for a few hours to boost your xp. A lot of the random enemies drop masterwork weapons and composite bows, all of which sell for 100g, making it quite common to get 200-400g worth of junk from a single random encounter.

[@cRPGBro]

It's mostly about selling all the gear you don't need. Chapter 1 has a lot of enchant weapons and such but most are very... wimpy effects wise.
