Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous - Update 1.1.4d

[Redglyph]

Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous received a new update.

Update 1.1.4d

Crusaders!

A new patch 1.1.4d is here! We fixed an issue with Arueshalae's romance ending, and hopefully a lot of Commanders will be much happier now; we've made some fixes to the way touch attack works in the turn-based mode, and also made it so that the negative effects will be displayed first on your characters' portraits.

[...]

More information.

[Couchpotato]

About time it's been a whole week without a patch. My anxiety has been averted.

Also this is a jest. If I offended a fan that's on you.

 

[Redglyph]

I'm not counting them anymore - I mean, the updates
There must have been hundreds of fixed bugs since the release.

I think I'll restart playing more seriously now that it seems in much better shape.

Still playing it, still first playthriough, attacking 200 hrs. Im currently stuck on hard opponent with rather innocent name

I still encounter bugs and glitches here and there, but nothing serious noted.

Wow 200 hours and you are still at chapter 3?

I just finished my 2nd run, clocking approx. 220 hours.

Are you playing on core? Which mythic?

I think that's because he's playing mostly TB (IIRC). I wouldn't be surprised if it made such a big difference from my experience with Kingmaker and the early beta of WotR.

 

[Couchpotato]

Yep playing TB in RPGs like Pathfinder will definitely pad the game length. My RTwP game usually takes 50-65 hrs to finish. One of the main reasons why I rarely use TB mode.

I finished yesterday (with ~300 hours) and quite well remember this very encounter. For me tis one was the toughest encounter in the whole game (except 1-2 at the very end).
Playing on core the only way I could win was to spam summons to distract her and then hoping for crits. Ultimately I bet her by polymorphing her into a dog when she rolled a 1 on her fortitude save.

The way I played that encounter (on Normal) was to have lots of summons to tank. You also need touch attacks to really hurt it.

 

[Pladio]

I'm about 100 hours in and what I think is Chapter 4 now. So probably another 80 hours to go or so.

Playing on core, with deaths door enabled. And for my first playthrough I went for most unimaginative class and mythic path : Divine Scion / Angel.

And Redglyph is right, gametime is definitely stretched by TB. But Im just enjoying it so much more that way, cant help it. I think that story pacing is well done and I dont have burn-out problems.

During last try I noticed its susceptible to my dispelling. So during my next attempt, today evening, Im planning to dispell spam it to oblivion. Hopefully it wont just simply re-cast anything I dispell from it. And of course, summon fodder will be there as well.

 

[Redglyph]

I can understand the enthusiasm for TB mode, I'm really enjoying it too. I was using it now and then in Wrath of the Righteous, mostly for difficult combats, but there were too many bugs back then, so I started avoiding it.

Maybe there should be a preparation phase for the buffing, even if that's in conflict with the element of surprise. That's an awkward part of TB, and probably why I tend not to take care of buffing since I played Kingmaker.

When it recasts you at least have one round where it can't hurt you.

I finished Kingmaker & Varnhold DLC a short while back, 315hrs, no great faffing at character creation, not too many reloaded battles, RTwP all the way, custom normal rules (I notice normal without amending stuff is actually slightly easy on some settings, so had to amend things like criticals and enemy strength upwards to normal).

I can't imagine what people are skipping to get through it much quicker!

 

[rune_74]

Am I the only one burned out by all the patches?

 

[wolfgrimdark]

I just finished my third complete play through last night, got 500 hours clocked on the game now. There are some tough fights even on normal let alone core.

 

[Alrik Fassbauer]

I should play this game only on weekends.
Only then it is guaranteed that I'll have enough time for a few encounters.

Hotfix 1.1.4f

There's already been a quick hotfix for the fix.

Don't fret, it's just 176 bytes. :lol:

Crusaders!

We’ve released a hot-fix for the issue with the XP bar and level up in your character interface. Now you will be able to see your progress to the next level, and level-up again when you reach the right number of the XP. This issue will not ruin your save, you can continue playing. We also fixed the issue with Hilor’s quest in chapter 5, Chasing the Spinner of Nightmares - now it will start (unless you have auto-crusade mode on - in this case it still won’t work for now, but we will fix it in one of the future patches).
