I appreciate your work! I am confused about Bull Rush and Greater Bull Rush as to how they modify a kinetic blast? They appear as a CBM feat icon when taken, so would they only apply to a melee attacking kinetic blade wielder? or is there some exception that occurs when using Kinetic Blast with Push infusion? Does that enable BR's effects?

[@osareafallire]

This is pretty ingenious. I like how your apparently simple (Trickery, Perception, and Persuasion) strategy all kind of culminates in massive benefits with the feats you take towards the end. Great, impressive job. Are you still playing this? Have you put together any full squad builds?

[@ArcaneAgent]

I'm playing the Wrath of the Righteous noe

[@sasmith]

If you take level 18 in Kin. then you can get the feat Agile Maneuvers for level 19 which would add you dex to those bull rush CMB checks.

[@ArcaneAgent]

Yes

[@VictorCreedGaming]

Just some little tips(hope these don't count as insult for you as they seem to do in most parts of the internet): You can reach much higher CMBs with Trip Infusion in this game since there is a feat adding your dex modifier to your con/wis/int modifier (depending on Kineticist sub) and the only req is the trip feat (which is +2 to your trips with infusions anyway). The highest lategame CMP with trip Infusion I was able to get is 48, but that is with Lich's hat so for Kineticist that's far worse than the actual Kineticist's headband with +6d6 +6 damage. But even without the hat your trips will be quite high 44 CMB before Act 7 and 47 in Act 7 with the final kineticists hat. While tripping doesn't look as funny as pushing it is actually as effective since you just put your deadly earth on top of your wall, it is a giant Aoe anyway, so you can still aggro with deadly earth after having pre cast the wall. While 48 CMB is not guaranteed Trip vs wild hunt in the middle of combat it is guaranteed if you catch them flat footed and you can actually two shot (assuming you're opening with maximise + empower, have the kineticists hat for 6d6 +6 damage) most wild hunt (except monarch i think) so if you have the hare, II feat and initiative necklace, most fights will be over before they even start.

[@ArcaneAgent]

Also, um you can use bowling infusion and pushing infusion at the same time, but I think its a bug

[@VictorCreedGaming]

@@ArcaneAgent Yeah, there are quite some bugs around the kineticist, don't know if any got fixed since I last played, but infusions stick around after you cast an ability first time in combat even if you toggle them off. Biggest glitch I was abusing was using gather power all the time for free maximise and empower, even in combat if you instantly after your first cast, when your char would start gathering power, click your ability again you don't need to wait for 1/1/2 round but the ability would still be free of burn cost.

[@JetstreamKage]

why not auto cast an extended range blast, or gather power low extended range auto cast composite blast to prevent your character moving forward and he adds in extra damage whenever you miss micro, for that matter why not use composite blasts in the wall and deadly earth?

[@ArcaneAgent]

Because I was having fun.

[@Bakeyasha]

now we're talking!!

[@ArcaneAgent]

Enjoy

[@PlanetarPL]

Don't know if anyone else pointed this out already but the reason why your char can't stand still & keeps moving to attack is - I think - because you got AI turned on. So your char with his hands run into hand-to-hand combat. Turn off AI should set it right (head with brain button below 'hide' button).

[@ArcaneAgent]

Yeah they pointed it out 2 years ago and mocked me openly and sent mean letters to my wife and kids. But then they got over it and followed me on www.twitch.tv/thearcaneagent

[@teamcomeback2411]

Would love to see an intimidation build that incorporates a few levels of magus/dragon disciple to be able to cast many arcane spells while killing foes in melee.

[@IAmAnEvilTaco]

Bard. Bard is great at this. Bard/dd is very underrated.

[@cameronb851]

The issue with caster build mixes is that most casters are back end heavy. They get their powerhouse abilities in their later levels, so mixing anything else with them risks severely reducing their abilities with only a moderate value trade-off. After all, how much better is the intimidation build than just having a pure Sorcerer that can spam five different types of empowered CC spells, plus everything else they can do. For the Intimidation build to work well it needs a bunch of progressive feat buys, which on a caster build are usually used to re-enforce their casting power and penetration. Gearing back towards a powerhouse fighting build just makes the caster side pointlessly gimped. Likewise, Dragon Disciple builds usually treat the caster required component as a vestigial limb. Necessary for the buy into the class, but otherwise effectively redundant once the goal has been achieved, as typically once the four initial levels of DD have been activated, the build doesn't bother returning to the caster line to keep going, instead switching to some third class to buff into some quasi martial power curve. The best DD builds are with class mixes like Bards, because they don't really have a high level power spike and a lot of their initial and mid levels are geared towards buffing, which doesn't require power or penetration because it's not intended to nuke swaths of enemies like classic caster archetypes. Pure magus builds are about the best gish stuff you will find, where they are solid melee-ists and reasonably capable casters as well.

[@ingrimmschboindil1302]

I would love too see your idea of an classic 2 handed sword fighter( no glass canon, someone who is in the front line) Or a 2 bladed sword version.

[@cameronb851]

He has a ton of builds for Kingmaker including melee stuff. Really there's not anything specific about wielding a two handed or two blade sword that requires a detailed step by step level 1 to 20 guide. Just look at any of the strength based melee builds geared towards any two handed weapon and where ever he's picked a feat specifically for x weapon, just pick the equivalent one for the weapon you want to use. Be aware though that the reason why there isn't a profusion of guides based around things like the two handed sword, is because there are other weapons in the two handed weapon range that offer better statistics, such as longer reach, and better critical ranges, so most guides will be angled towards those weapons, because when people look for guides for how to build a character, they want to most numerical 'value' out of what they are doing. An extra attack. Some control feature not available to most mortals. They want the killer detail that transforms them into gaming gods, without 'cheating'. That's kind of the point of guides. Someone with a better understanding of all the intricate details who can show you something you weren't aware of.

[@fuzzythoughts8020]

I love how with most of these builds you can just ignore the additional CON and make them as a side character rather than the main in your party

[@RagnarWolflord]

Like the build here, I have been wanting to do a kineticist since they came out. One question though and may have missed the reasoning, why Water instead of Air or Earth? Was it because the water wall does the bounce?

Actually? In the game undead and constructs are susceptible to a bunch of stuff they aren’t in pnp. Intelligent undead are susceptible to fear anyway unless specifically stated, it’s only mindless stuff and animals that don’t care how pretty you spin your sword.

Something you can experiment with on Kineticists are focusing on pure constitution to get as much burn as you can, then SPEND those burns on whatever buffs you want, and make use of Elemental Overflow for other stat bonuses. It's amazing what one can do with kineticists that way :)

[@ArcaneAgent]

With plus To Constitution stat items I can get a lot of burn possibilities, but you only need 7 burn for max overflow

[@Wintermist-SWE]

@@ArcaneAgent Wait now I remember the deal lol, the point was the actual buffs you can do with the burns, not elemental overflow, now I'm back on track.

[@ArcaneAgent]

Yes. Dazzling is going to be taking a break from my builds. The dazzling in this build helped keep baddies away for sure. I place an advertisement every 3 minutes. 1. It does allow me to make more money per video. Honesty first. 2. It allows you guys a brain break every 3 minutes. 3. My watch time has actually gone *up* since i increased my ads.

[@Dor_Z]

Can I use a Aasimar or Human with this build?

[@dealwolfstriked272]

How did you learn all this stuff.Are you a veteran pathfinder player or did you just learn the system when you purchased this game?

[@ArcaneAgent]

Still learning, this system. Ive only played DnD games through video games. Which I think helps because I look through everything and test it all out

[@dealwolfstriked272]

I do love this! The fact that some people can build crazy good characters while others just spam magic missile LOL.Gonna dive in myself! Thanks....

[@ArcaneAgent]

Have fun, but remember to spam magic missile as well

[@RaiofLight]

Dreadful Carnage at lvl 9? That's an amazing discovery :O

[@ArcaneAgent]

I try hehe

[@climhazzard115]

This build is exactly what my party needs, ranged blasting plus CC/AoE damage, looks great. I wonder if I could make it work for the Tiefling companion...? I suppose I could respec her if not. When I originally looked at her talent tree it was like getting hit with a confusion spell, especially considering there's 2 versions of her, so I went with the ranger companion instead, lol. Might have to give her another look now though.

[@ArcaneAgent]

It could work with her

[@Pierre_Grognart]

damn who need a tank with a build like this

[@mightytotems333]

That is a very Awsome build. Love all your builds even the rogues. lol

[@ArcaneAgent]

Haha I love my rogues

[@grilledleeks6514]

One thing I hope the devs see from this vid is to please clean up the movement commands =x

[@ArcaneAgent]

Yes. I want to HOLD position even if I have auto melee equipped and they run away

[@Ceetvair]

Could I start as thug and then go into kinetist at lvl 2 for the different outfit or would it messup something?

[@ArcaneAgent]

I'm not sure, I don't remember why I built it that way

[@Ceetvair]

@@ArcaneAgent I mean in general. I just started to play the game yesterday and try to figure out what I want to play and how I want to play, so I'm checking a lot of builds. And I have seen many with only 1 level in something right at lvl2. Since level 1 is only the tutorial anyways, for me it would make sense that the order of lvl 1 and lvl2 do not matter?! So hard to get into this game btw. especially because most builds don't offer any gameplay. You are the only one I have found so far. So thanks and nice work :)

[@ArcaneAgent]

No problem

[@piliopan]

I have the game but this race dont appear, is it an ampliation?

[@ArcaneAgent]

You need the DLC

[@piliopan]

Thanks, I buy de dlc in the steam store but for some reason dont appear de race and the kineticist...

[@Linheru]

How well does this play at earlier levels?

[@ArcaneAgent]

Its slow like any class you play. When you get dazzling display its very good because you can keep groups away from you

[@chekitatheanimatedskeptic6314]

Nice build, just one tip: disable AI in your character and you dont need to keep pressing hold.

[@ArcaneAgent]

Sweet!

[@mauricionavarro8224]

Nice build!!! :D

[@ArcaneAgent]

Thanks, it kinda broke the game for me

[@mauricionavarro8224]

@@ArcaneAgent In deed ;) xD

[@piliopan]

Someone Buy the DLC where apperas the race and and the Kineticist and have problems???

[@ger5565]

I'm loving your monk builds. I was wanting to make a Cleric party member and was wondering what you think about Clerics and their sub-classes.

[@ArcaneAgent]

Ecclesitheurge is my favorite because of all of the spell casting

[@aligperosing5967]

Can you do one with kineticist and Monk pless

[@hypnomadeletsplay9702]

It's a very cool build. But we can't solo the game at least the beginning.

[@ArcaneAgent]

You can solo the game.

[@fazliamri]

Love your video bro

[@dougernaut96]

How do you get multiple levels like that?

[@shadowededge]

I just created my own build it’s lvl 9 only so far but 4-6 attacks at lvl 9 with momk buff/haste and is super fun so far Nightmare Monk(so far) Race: Tiefling (Motherless) Lvl 1 Monk Str 13 Dex 17 Con 14 Int 10 Wis 14 Cha 12 Feat: Deceitful Monk Feat: Combat Reflexes Trickery 1 Perception 1 Persuasion 1 Lvl 2 Rouge ((Thug)) Mobility 1 Trickery 1 Knowledge World 1 Perception 1 Persuasion 1 Stealth 1 Lvl 3 Kineticist (Fire) Perception 1 Trickery 1 Persuasion 1 Feat: Weapon Focus Unarmed Lvl 4 Monk Perception 1 Trickery 1 Persuasion 1 Dex +1 Monk Feat: Improved Initiative Lvl 5 Thug Trickery 1 Mobility 2 Perception 1 Knowledge World 1 Persuasion 1 Rogue Feat: Dazzling Display Lvl 6 Kineticist Bonus Feat: Dreadful Carnage Perception 1 Persuasion 1 Trickery 1 Lvl 7 Monk Bonus Feat: Pummeling Style Perception 1 Persuasion 1 Trickery 1 Lvl 8 Monk Str +1 Perception 1 Persuasion 1 Trickery 1 Lvl 9 Monk Feat: Shatter Defenses Perception 1 Persuasion 1 Trickery 1 Gear is Bracers +4 Kineticist Diadom head Trap springier gloves Elven boots Necklace of unarmed +1 Ring +2 Cloak of Winter Wolf Super fun so far looking forward to pummel charge Just faced stomped the first cultist quest enemies feared the whole time did second stat to increase CMB to plus 2 and with fury’s fall at 13 Dex plus str min +7 plus lvl for tripping. They stand up you punch them again in the end he will be fire and water for elements 3 thug 9 monk 8 Kineticist Would love the masters opinion on this build so far. I wanted Kineticist for the nice little touch ac attacks

Still one of the best, most unique and most fun looking builds I have seen. Maybe ever seen for PathFinder. Soo much interactivity and flavor, instead of just mindlessly selfbuffing and smacking like most builds do :) One question tho: How come that your abilities cost 0 burn and you dont use any? Is it just by Infusion specialization?

[@ArcaneAgent]

Yes infusion specialization
