Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous Crusade System 10 Tips and Tricks | Pathfinder WOTR

[@stevenlehnhoff6100]

Just hit chapter 2 and I was super confused on the crusader system. You literally cleared everything up with this video. Well done!

[@LeeroyGaming]

I remember being confused myself during beta so glad I could help!

[@huskytales9839]

Came here to say this. Thanks!

[@LeeroyGaming]

@@huskytales9839 and thank you :)

[@happyninja42]

Is it better to just focus on one strong army? Because I notice you have 4 different groups, but you never discussed that in the video. I thought it might be good to have 2 armies, but the problem I ran into was I didn't have enough low level fights when I split up the forces, to get either army strong enough, to take on the tougher armies, and I got stuck.

[@LeeroyGaming]

@@happyninja42 it’s deceptive. I only have ONE primary army. The remainder are a bunch of free units I got from story scenarios. As my main army can only have 4 “units”, I have a ton of left over units sitting around. In my main game I have like 9 “armies” sitting around, but I only use one for actual combat.

[@XoRandomGuyoX]

The Infirmary is represented during fights by a vertical bar next to your general's portrait. So long as that bar isn't filled any casualties will auto-rez after combat. If it is filled though, that's when you want to apply the Total Defense + Cure Wounds cheese until the bar is partially filled.

[@JoDough]

I've been wondering what that was!

[@dumbgames4933]

Fantastic info, thank you!

[@TheYuxiaodi]

[@JBrander]

actual bless you, my guy. I was micro managing the mitigation of the losses with the heal trying to make sure every soldier comes out alive after a fight. This is definitely a stress that I wouldn't have to deal with anymore. Thank you!

[@EzGaming520]

this mode absolutely ruins this game .... wow

[@OWlsfordshire]

Yep, and CRPGs keep adding this dumb shit. Like PoE 2 with ship battles or Kingmaker with the Kingdom Management nonsense.

[@Solitar1us]

Was freaking out not understanding how to go from party to army and vice versa. Immediately saw you navigate between the two banners and smacked my forehead.

[@LeeroyGaming]

Lol yea, so simple and obvious yet hidden in plain sight

[@heniv181]

Here is a tip/tactic for when meeting enemy armies with general. 1. You always split of 3 of your cheapest soldiers off your main army. 2. Send these to attack the enemy army. To find out what ability the enemy General has. 3. If it has an ability that can one shot a unit. Then you keep sending small units to drain its mana/energy.

[@StockOverflow]

This was the best tip ever. I just threw single convicts at a one-shotter until it ran out of energy. Then I went in with my main army and mopped up.

[@RLKmedic0315]

Thank you. That is an immensely useful tip.

[@Mr.Be93]

[@wasteland-werewolf]

I stopped my first playthrough because I had turned on auto-crusade because I hated the system so much. I began to regret that decision so now I started over so I can finish the game with it on. Thanks for these tips, they are really gonna help me.

[@LeeroyGaming]

The system isn’t perfect, but it’s still enjoyable and I like the different units etc

[@Nineteenfivepointfive]

I turnt it of after act 3. It's absolutely bad boring and plays like a Facebook flash game. There is nothing strategic or exiting. The game is miles better without it. The loot you get for it and the quests are forgettable.

[@OWlsfordshire]

People are saying you have to leave it on to complete mythic quests for certain paths.

[@jeremyc4811]

Yeah, I'm on turn 150 against a f'ing rock elemental squad with 800 HP. My army is doing about 40 damage per round...so yeah...it's taking a lot of clicking.

[@Panthro-lo2lh]

So far, this is the worst aspect of the game for me. Very messy, needs numberous QoL fixes (random armies being delivered with random troops stacking up and very little consolidation options). The combat aspect is ok, but nothing is really explained well overall. On top of that, enemy armies seem totally random as well. Their power levels I've got some decently strong armies that have been relatively effective at clearing demon armies, but it has been a frustrating process. Fireball+Cure Wounds=win

[@beartech28]

I have 160 hours in this game already and I didnt know closing and reopening the general window cycled them... wow... Great tips =)

[@XoRandomGuyoX]

Yeah, having Master of Maneuver to get that 4th stack of units is a crazy good bonus. A Mage type helps too, so you can spam Cure Wounds to keep that Infirmary bar from being maxed out at the end of a fight.

[@nickllama5296]

Thanks for all your WOTR videos, much appreciated and very enjoyable to watch. Hope you'll do the other Mythic paths soon!

[@LeeroyGaming]

A variety of new videos are coming. Stay tuned:)

[@A_Simple_Neurose]

Best tip right here; spend tons on archers and hellknights. Get infirmary size up as much as possible. If you want to basically just cheat then hope your commander gets the thundering scream ability or whatever it's called that flat out stuns units and can make the enemy commander skip their turn so they cant even cast magic.

[@LeeroyGaming]

That def works. Stacking insane amounts of infirmary/hospitals is crazy good too. No limits on those either.

I picked this up pretty easily since it is a more simplified version of Heroes of Might and Magic.

[@adrianleong8537]

@@LeeroyGaming Looking forward to it!

[@TheLokiel]

Heal self is a quick action (at least for priests) meaning in your « defend and heal » video you should have used their heal on themselves before defending. That’s two heals per turn.

[@silversurfie]

First playthrough where I didn't know what I was doing I hired the dwarf general. Had a hard time keeping a strong army stack since I couldn't heal or facing high level armies my archers get one shot. After getting a wizard general in Act 3 I knew I screwed up and restarted.

[@LeeroyGaming]

Smart. Yea Unf warrior generals get the sharf. No healing, no crazy op ranged spells for dps either. The extra defense buff to offense and or defense feels so meh

[@XoRandomGuyoX]

@@LeeroyGaming To me the Warrior generals should be like Tacticians, or Battle Master Fighters in D&D, they should come with a plethora of abilities that directly and noticeably buff the army. Stuff like "adds Power level +1 to the AC of all units in the army" or "for the next round units deal Power level x2 bonus damage on each hit". That way, the larger the army the larger the bonus.

[@LeeroyGaming]

@@XoRandomGuyoX yea I agree. The various abilities and spells are not balanced well in crusade mode

[@sydanus1866]

Thanks, Leeroy! The crusade system was very intimating at the start for me, but after watching your video guides I feel much more confident. Cheers!

[@Darkmagician923]

a mage is better off spitting spells at ranged enemies; After ranged enemies are dead, just drop very low melee enemies and start healing; As long as you have mana, you WILL destroy everything; Also Chief Girl Mage is the best, because it gives extra power and she is harder to raise into high lvl; 2nd comes Maneuver Mage cuz he can rely on his army when he is freshly recruited.

[@RedwoodTheElf]

What I want to know is, how do you transfer soldiers between armies? Is it only possible at the start of a day when they all have 40 movement?

[@LeeroyGaming]

No, at any time. They just have to be on sale space. Then you can click on the little two way arrow icon on the stack while having one army selected. Then you can cycle which other army to trade with (in the case that there are multiple armies present)

[@scottnolan2833]

Would love if this was also a written guide I could refer to without listening to the whole thing again.

[@yammoto148]

You preferably want a general that can kill either help you outright kill enemies or augment your units into one shoting machines. Mage generals are usually best for this as you can drop a fireball at the start of battle and almost eradicate the enemy army. It however becomes harder as you face more difficult armies as Balors will nuke everyone you have to death and will go first so there a more defensive general is better towards the late game. Also pay attention to what units your advisors are suggesting, some suggestions are better than others, like you don't want a bunch of weak slingers in comparison to Marksmen. I find Regil often has the best choices for infantry and defensive units, Seela for units that can heal and support, the advisor for the cheap and weak units, Wenduag for bandits and scoundrels who usually are versatile rather than strong and Greybor suggests expensive but very strong units.

[@Owltoppus]

Here's a priority list for Setsu... ahem for your general 1)Number of unique units 2)Movement speed 3)experience gain and extra feats at 20 4) power 5) attack spells of different elements and utility.

[@luchtain]

If I'm going the angel mythic path, is it okay to set the crusade settings to auto? I know in some cases, like for the lich, you have to build certain things in order to finish the mythic quests. I wasn't sure if angel was the same way or not.

[@nmtarav]

Best tip is to just put it on autopilot

[@nathaneardley7394]

Fun note, if you have a army with a size greater than 3 from the general,once the units are in there you can change the general to one who doesn’t have the feat, and the army remains the same size.

[@LeeroyGaming]

Ha, interesting exploit. Not personally a fan of doing stuff like this but it is a way to squeeze out a little more power out of your main general

New subscriber here ;) Awesome video thanks a lot! Good thing I waitet with the army-system and came here to educate myself ;) now I'll go and buy my first general with the right stats and feats :-o

[@suucat]

I hate micro managements in games, i always turn the auto play for this stuff on, in fact i dont see the reasoning for putting something like this in a game like this... i like a lot games like Baldurs Gate 1-2, Icewind Dale... its my personal opinion, but something like this is out of place in this game.

[@Xsorus]

I went with a Paladin at the start because I didn't know I could reset it....Its worked out ok i guess....the Paladin gets some type of ability that 5x5 Square that will stun anyone in it for multiple rounds if they fail the save. Undead Esp get screwed by it....I literally will AOE stun a clump and have my three archer stacks pick off the rest. It also doesn't cost energy either... you can literally use it the entire battle.

[@Xsorus]

Also choose Shield Bearers...when offered the option.....Have them run in before everyone else...The Enemies will go directly for them and they take like 0 damage....

[@Baraz_Red]

Is there a point in having a second "main" army (as a last resort defense of the camp for example) or should the other armies only serve as reinforcements for the one main army? (I will check your new advanced video which maybe mentions this.)

[@LeeroyGaming]

I have found no reason yet to have multi armies. As long as you build the citadel building in each mini settlement you will have 6 days to get to any siege, which is plenty of time no matter where your main army is on the map. Also, it takes a lot of xp to level up an army so leveling up multiple armies/generals seems inefficient. On a side note, I have about 8 armies of random units I got for free parked @drezen. Maybe I can make a second army out of them eventually. But why? Granted I haven’t finished the game yet so maybe I’m still missing something.

[@nickllama5296]

@@LeeroyGaming I tried leveling up a second general and a second army, but the cost to have a second useful army is just ridiculously prohibitive. And like you said, it doesn't really seem to serve much purpose. Just doomstack the Hellknights and roflstomp the entire map.

[@scienceontheright]

Already have two armies with two level 3 generals. Should I get rid of both of them and buy a new one? It seems really expensive to do that. I don't have a lot of gold.

This crusade bullshit is soo bad, I cant deal with this devs being soo dense, people complained soo much about kingdom management on kingmaker and they just decided to make an even worse gimmick for the sequel.

[@LeeroyGaming]

I liked the potential/concept but I know it’s not very well implemented atm. Feels like a Kickstarter backer stretch goal that was bigger bite than then could chew. Idea is a near full masters of might and magic game within the most complex crpg or all time. Very ambitious but hard to meet expectations.

[@TonyPaulazzo]

Wow, thanks so much, a nice, easy to understand bunch of tips. I'd already started (got my camp moved north a bit) and by luck chose a general with the manoeuvre thing and heal spell; but was wondering why newly recruited soldiers still start out from near Kenarbre rather than my new forward camp (or maybe I'm missing a button?), there's an awful lot of info I'm still learning, like DC and AC and why my heavy armour wearing paladin keeps failing to use magic items??? - I kind'a know armour and magic don't really mix but Seela was already armoured up when she joined. It's been fun learning all these new rules tho (almost makes me wanna find a Pathfinder DND group IRL after seeing the world map). Happy 2022!

[@LeeroyGaming]

Recruited soldiers will always come out of the main city (which will change to a different city in act 3). Its just the way it is. However you will gain access to teleportation which should help with movement some as the map is pretty big.

[@danielfeng9625]

I’m in act 2 and every time I finish lepers smile, I lost 20 morale, is this normal? Please help me.

[@SoraJustAGuy]

Finished the game, crusader system is fun at first, but becomes boring and bothersome like around mid chapter 3 to manage(build buildings, buy resources, buy warriors, battle, repeat). Try it, but don’t be afraid to put it on auto management if you are not into it (you not gonna lose anything)

I didn't spend enough time to actually get that addition. I just tried to rush it because I hate turn based stuff. I always try and leave some positivity where I go. I hate comments on videos, especially on reviews or guides where people are upset with the game so they downrate the video or leave offensive comments. I can't even understand that mentality. I've never disliked a video, I only ever like one based on comment. Kind of like the "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." but you know people and their entitled internet anonymity, lol, people don't know who they are so they think they can be full Demon mythic :P lol Anyways, I will sub to show some extra support.

It could be better if u ask me, if more effort was put into this we could get something like heroes of might and magic minigame inside WOTR but alas at the moment its just a filler.

Because not everyone picks it up as easily and quickly as you. Especially people that never played heroes of might and magic etc. I mean we can also say that you can just disable the system as well. Yes it could be better balanced, I still find it’s oddly enjoyable although it is nowhere near balanced.

I picked Grinning wolf and he seems to get WAY better abilities than the mages. Cure wounds, master of maneuver x3 by lvl 8 for me, lots of traps, lots of mage abilities....really seems to be much more versatile.

[@LeeroyGaming]

from all my playthrooughs im thinking there is a lot of randomness in what abilities you get. obviously fighters are not gonna get spells, but its hard to predict whether you get useful options on level up.

@@LeeroyGaming btw its a good video, sry if i sounded tilted, but this part of the game rly grinds my gears... Act 2 was ok but act 3 is a whole different level of bs

[@LeeroyGaming]

@@bboyValentis it’s ok. Act 3 is funky. Act 4 is batshit crazy but fun lol

2:25 for me the best was a mage kind of type, scorching ray and heal was so good. Also, get fireball, its awesome.

I didn't even bother and turned off entirely. Kingdom management was such a pain and profitless goldsink in kingmaker I figured it wouls be no different.

So what’s worse if apparently you lose your main armies when you hit act 5. I’m there atm in my main playthrough and if my lvl 10 general with his giant army is somewhere to be found then I have not found him anywhere. Not too happy that I have to rebuild my army from scratch. Haven’t beat the game yet but maybe someone can confirm if you get your main army or armies back at some point in act 5?

This is a gem .. since am using this i did not lose 1 troop. 👍

Regarding cure wounds? So far i just use a defendable postion and scorching ray all to death. Most shots are one shots? In the time i one shot an enemy when i use my units to kill even the desth knights need like 5 rounds. I dont think thats a net plus when i attakc instrad woth my knights and heal them?

[@LeeroyGaming]

I use a combo of cure wounds and scorching ray for most scenarios. For big fights I might mix in fireball even though it’s expensive,
