You're going to need spell penetration early, lots of enemies have upwards of 25+ spell resistance. You also need to have a spell with an attack roll early on to actually get the sneak attack dice, relying on hitting arcane trickster 10 to actually apply those sneak attacks is really rough for the majority of the game. I'd recommend looking into spell specialization, weapon focus rays, that sort of thing. Then we've gotta consider mythic ranks and paths, which add a lot of depth to your character creation.
Hope it's good I didn't really enjoy kingmaker they anchored you to your town and did a lot of forced unnecessary things in the game. Was very little freedom of gameplay.
Waiting for the full version to come out, because there are a LOT of builds I want to make, but the Beta doesn't have classes and feats properly worked out yet
@@ArcaneAgent Whenever you get a chance :) I'm lost playing WotR w/o your buildguides. The stuff you made about Kingmaker was by far my favorite Pathfinder content to date and one of the reasons I was looking forward to WotR's launch was hope that you'd be posting new build videos. Or anything about either of the Pathfinder games really. Always a joy to hear your thoughts on those topics man. No pressure though, and thanks for all the awesome videos you've made so far!
I had an excellent time with a bard tank in kingmaker who was thundercaller crit fishing with the "Thundering Claw of the Bear God" scimitar. I'm looking forward to trying something similar in the new game.
The only problem i see with this build is that you will basically always have the -4 to attack rolls because you lack precise shot and enemies on melee make it harder to use range attacks such as most spells you normally use with an arcane trickster

Hi! Could it be possible one day to have a plants shifter build? (focusing around the shambling mound wild shape) I love the idea of being one with plant and transforming into one
CANT WAIT TO SEE SOME RELEASE Pathfinder WotR Gameplay/Playthrough/Builds from you! Definitely restarted Pathfinder Kingmake about 12 times after watching your builds and appreciate all of those are still good for WotR but looking forward to your tips and tricks for WotR! 😊🥦🦖
FYI the custom portraits work the same way they did in Kingmaker. Go to your C:\Users\'USER_ID\AppData\LocalLow\Owlcat Games\Pathfinder Wrath Of The Righteous\Portraits folder and you can add folders with the artwork you want to use. There are some issues with portraits not showing up in the UI if your using some of the mods from Kingmaker that added hundreds. The half-dozen or so custom portraits I made are working fine though.
A video focusing on Hellknight and Hellknight signifiers would be great :D. Excellent quality intro and outros btw. As far channels covering Pathfinder WotR this is probably one the most professionals ones together with Fextralife. Keep doing great work man :D
@@ArcaneAgent Is it already in the beta? You are supposed to be able to brew potion when resting (once in Kenabres I think). But you need the ingredients. To me, it seems like it's not ready yet.
Shaman is like a Druid/Witch combo. Druid is a nature-y divine caster while Witch is an alternative Wizard that get's 'hexes', which are magical abilities they can usually use at-will, but a lot of them can only be used on each single creature once per day. Shamen get a more druid-like spell list as well as medium armor, shields, and some decent weapons (and 3/4 BAB progression), and hexes, and then throws in this Spirits mechanic that is kinda like a cleric domain, giving them added spells known, added hex options, and some special abilities all its own. They're a pretty complex class, but definitely could be fun.
If you rely on companions for some of these skill focuses, which feats would you suggest for an arcane trickster? (also, aside great channel. If you are waiting for release until posting builds - one alternative is showing companion builds. 1 full class build 1 hybrid build, as they don't have Mythic choice focuses ) Thanks!
I would like to see that. Since Kingmaker I wanted to play as a Hellnknight(unfortunally the strech goal for this class was not reached) and now they're here.
I'm using your Kingmaker Aasimar Paladin tank build in my playthrough right now. The issue is there are no decent monk weapons at all so far in the game, lol I'm the weakest link in my part.
there are some amazing monk weapons dotted all over the beta, maybe nothing good chapter 1 but 2-4 has several good ones. :) And then again chapter 1 you are good to go with a masterwork weapon anyways. :)
@@ArcaneAgent I'd love to see that too. When I wanted to try builds in Alpha, I would load up a late game save and use the NPC to hire mercenaries but they don't get the same starting stats as the main character so not quite as good.
@@ArcaneAgent Yes. It's not a bad way to plan builds, especially if you have a save from after Mythic Paths are unlocked because mecrs can get most of the mythic feats and you just have to remember that you have 2 less ability points. Stiil, I'm sure your method will be better if you can level up or respec a main character instead of a merc.
I am in upper teens of a arcane trickster build with a bow-magus, and holy shit! If you get wand wielder, you can UMD any touch-spell with your bow attacks. Crazy brutal damage with maximized hellfire ray and sneak attack, LOL
A video showing all the races and classes and subclasses would be great for nerd like me so we could create our heroes in our brains before the game will come out.
What if I broke down races in a separate video. And then broke each class down in 1 video per class, with archetypes in that same video. So rogue class video, and then break into thug and eldritch scoundrel
@@ArcaneAgent The best way in my opinion would be 1 video about races to show what each of them gain slowly so we can pause and read more :) And 1 video for each class + archetypes showing what each archetype gains and what it loses compared to basic class. So like Rogue and all it's archetypes and next video Slayer and all it archetypes etc. Many archetypes are similar to Pathfinder Kingmaker but maybe they have some slight changes in some archetypes and also each class got 2 new archetypes if I'm not mistaken?
I'm playing an Arcanist in PnP, though we're converting to 2E, so he'll become just a fairly regular wizard. Arcanists are SO fun. Dimensional Slide, Potent Magic, Quick Study, and just for some flavor, Holy Water Jet.
Only thing I'd change here is lowering Charisma to 14 to get up to 12 Con, as 9 con REALLY hurts as as caster, even a multiclass one. Your already getting enough bonuses to your social skills from your feats that starting with 14 Cha won't lower your social acumen all that significantly, and the extra con will really, REALLY do you good. Other than that, great job!
I am waiting for this. Also I must admit it is Great class choice. Will wait for some great portraits. and definitely like to see a play-through with this White mage.
I would like to see your take on a Warpriest: Feral Champion build if you have time. It's like one of the few archetypes I've never found a good build for.
Thats what I want to see. If I'm wearing the best heavy armor with a class that is a tank, the guy wearing robes shouldn't be harder to damage than me.
You don't need 16 dex so buff the Con (hit points) and Wisdom (you do know perception runs off of this?) and live with 14 (-1 on skills, AC and reflex saves). Alertness is also a feat you (Criminally) overlooked. Gnomes get a buff to Illusion save DC's too which would also allow you to further save on stats.
Saw that they had cavalier, are they adding mounts? I mean, cavalier is two things: mount focused and teamwork feat focused. Removing mounts takes away a ton of their class abilities from PnP. Hopefully they either have or eventually add Samurai, the alternate class for Cavaliers (sort of like an archetype, but not really). While they also have mounts, they don't focus on them nearly as much and rather than teamwork feats, they get Resolve for more tankiness and Weapon Expertise that treats them as fighters for the sake of qualifying for feats. If they did that, they could also add the Iaijutsu Master archetype for the Samurai, which removes the mount entirely, which lets them use Iaijutsu Strike that is similar to Sneak Attack, only it just needs to be the target of your challenge rather than any other set up and the archetype adds riders to it that act like Dazzling Display/Dreadful Carnage.
@@ArcaneAgent huh, so that'll be interesting, as that opens up a ton of feats. Spirited charge + Lance + the 20th level Cavalier capstone (at least in PnP) gives a x6 or x7 damage bonus (can't remember off hand) on a charge attack.
@@ArcaneAgent I wonder if they will do Hell's Rebels as an expansion. It is the sister to the Wrath of the Righteous PnP adventure path told from the other side (and is thus an evil campaign). Weird they only have Oreads, since there are Ifrits (fire), Sylphs (air), and Undines (water) missing. Glad they added witch, though I wonder how their hexes will translate into the video game medium. Slumber hex is super broken in PnP, as it allows Coup de Gras against enemies, pretty much at will (if they save, you can't use it again on that specific target again for the next 24 hours unless you have Accursed Hex, which allows a second shot at it). For reference, a coup de gras is an automatic hit and an automatic crit, plus the target needs to make a Fortitude save based on the damage they receive or just die. A party of two can take out a creature 3-5 levels higher in a single round.
Should you have perhaps dumped Str instead of Wis? Wis is useful for perception, whereas you're getting nothing from Str? (haven't played WotR yet, don't know if things changed) And yeah, Ranged Legerdemain is a must have for every party. It's just too good. Gonna miss Octavia. White Mage seems pretty busted...
Please tell me that you will be doing some builds for PWotR... Your builds and community are great!!! Everyone is saying that assassin builds suck so would love to see a build that makes them worth a playthrough.
please , hep me with a monk/ eldritch scion , claw/unarmed build . i have been working on this for a bit and about every three levels . i have to start over and tweek it . just a bit frustrating . thanks . you have alot of good / OPAF broken builds . im slowly binge watching your videos . what i really like about your videos the most is . just the facts , do what you want with them and your format . cut and clean .kudos
Ok...sooo.....am I not understanding something? Because it seems to me the arcanist is simply the best spell caster in the game now. Why would you ever create a wizard or a sorc over an arcanist? I mean I get you technically have less spells memorized at a time than a wizard but you have MORE spells per spell level, so it's not even really a disadvantage, and you effectively get to disregard the lack of versatility of the sorc and gain the spontaneous casting for no real tradeoff.
If it is (as expected) same as tabletop, the arcanist prepared spells use the sorcerer table, but uses the wizard max spells per day (4+ bonus from stat) rather than sorc (6+ stat). Its a very strong class, but you only have max spell cast as a universalist wizard, with spell level progression coming at the sorcerer rate. The real strength is being able to swap the spells you can cast daily (or with an exploit in a round). You could say that if you are using the illusion spells to mimic all the other spells, being able to switch spells is less useful than the 2 extra spells of each level the sorcerer gets. Personally I prefer the Exploiter Wizard archetype, Base spells as universalist wizard, but you gain Arcanist pool and a few exploits
massive overkill on skill check bonuses makes you lose out on a bunch of combat focused feats for no reason other than not wanting to quick save and load when you stupidly fail a skill check - which you still might do even with all the feats due to bad rng.
A presentation quibble: As you state the next level you're taking you are reading the class level from the screen --- which is the level you already have. Annoying for someone trying to transcribe your build... whoever might find themselves in such a ridiculous predicament.
Don't really see the point of going Arcane Trickster for this kind of build. As for the whole shadow evocation line of spells, they're all a level lower than what you'd usually get. Sure, the versatility can be useful, but you're already a whole spell level behind as an arcane trickster basing it off an arcanist.
This build is actually useless, you forgot something VERY major the thing that makes wrath of the rightous what it is....You forgot about your Mythic feats, Mythic Abilites. Thumbs down mate
Why is magic in this game so garbage? I can't do anything in the game unless I have a fighter with me. The cantrips are so bad, along with ranged attacks. How is it that spells in the game has to be a cone or an aoe to be useful? I can't enjoy playing a caster without slashing some melee because everything I do is worthless. Explain the magic system or admit they show no real respect to casters.

@@ArcaneAgent I could say the same thing!
@@ArcaneAgent isn't getting the feats like spell penetration and spell focus not important for this build?
If you want to use spell pen and spell focus I like them
Wish you would write out the written build for the sword saint build would be so awesome if you did it hard to pause and play to make the build
You're going to need spell penetration early, lots of enemies have upwards of 25+ spell resistance.

Glad they added witch, though I wonder how their hexes will translate into the video game medium. Slumber hex is super broken in PnP, as it allows Coup de Gras against enemies, pretty much at will (if they save, you can't use it again on that specific target again for the next 24 hours unless you have Accursed Hex, which allows a second shot at it). For reference, a coup de gras is an automatic hit and an automatic crit, plus the target needs to make a Fortitude save based on the damage they receive or just die. A party of two can take out a creature 3-5 levels higher in a single round.
Man I hope so. That would be awesoke
How are you lev up so fast?
I'll make a video on it
Inquisitor Necromancer without mythic paths
Should you have perhaps dumped Str instead of Wis? Wis is useful for perception, whereas you're getting nothing from Str? (haven't played WotR yet, don't know if things changed)
And yeah, Ranged Legerdemain is a must have for every party. It's just too good. Gonna miss Octavia.
White Mage seems pretty busted...
I probably should have. But I restart every 5 minutes lol
Please tell me that you will be doing some builds for PWotR... Your builds and community are great!!! Everyone is saying that assassin builds suck so would love to see a build that makes them worth a playthrough.
I'm currently rushing to level 19 ish so I can make proper builds
I meant to say 'more builds for PWotR'
Yes I will be!

Build an Assassin just so I can see if it could be done to actually work and be effective please.... !!!
I will have to do this. I loved assassin's in NWN1 and NWN2
Is Precise Shot no longer required to not get a penalty on ranged touch spells?
It still is required if the enemy is engaged in melee combat. However I plan on using no touch spells for this build
Yesss!
Glad to start making these again!
@@ArcaneAgent I love it! Keep 'em coming!
I want to try new classes. Is there any viable Oracle build which can be a Melee DPS/support hybrid
I'll have to play around with oracle, there are so many classes I've never touched
> Back in the studio
Your mom's basement is now called a studio? Wow!
Nice!
Builds for this game without the mythic path are incomplete, please include it next time... At least with the available information.
I've not gotten that far
I agree. Mythic path can be game changer. And if you want make use of spells/illusion you have to buff your DC and spell penetration.
remake it man plzz
I'm having great success with my scale fist/vivo/sorc/trickster early does but it's a solid alternative I think
Good old scaler fist sorc combo
Ok...sooo.....am I not understanding something? Because it seems to me the arcanist is simply the best spell caster in the game now. Why would you ever create a wizard or a sorc over an arcanist? I mean I get you technically have less spells memorized at a time than a wizard but you have MORE spells per spell level, so it's not even really a disadvantage, and you effectively get to disregard the lack of versatility of the sorc and gain the spontaneous casting for no real tradeoff.
I mean sorcs can get an animal companion or a constantly higher dc on some spells
If it is (as expected) same as tabletop, the arcanist prepared spells use the sorcerer table, but uses the wizard max spells per day (4+ bonus from stat) rather than sorc (6+ stat). Its a very strong class, but you only have max spell cast as a universalist wizard, with spell level progression coming at the sorcerer rate. The real strength is being able to swap the spells you can cast daily (or with an exploit in a round). You could say that if you are using the illusion spells to mimic all the other spells, being able to switch spells is less useful than the 2 extra spells of each level the sorcerer gets. Personally I prefer the Exploiter Wizard archetype, Base spells as universalist wizard, but you gain Arcanist pool and a few exploits
I'll have to check it out
As my beastkin monk idea requires an alignment shift and that’s a hassle, show me a good beastkin build.
Natural/ unarmed if you’re up for it.
Beastkin?
@@ArcaneAgent beastkin berserker barbarian.
I love all your guide and I'm watching u from France
Funny and sexy btw :)
Keep going love your work
I'm glad you liked my guide, I'm currently running through the game trying to get to level 19-20 to make some more builds!
@@ArcaneAgent I just began my priest and this game is wonderfull :)
Reminds me the omd day of D and D
Keep going super Guy ;)
Trying to beat the game hehe
massive overkill on skill check bonuses makes you lose out on a bunch of combat focused feats for no reason other than not wanting to quick save and load when you stupidly fail a skill check - which you still might do even with all the feats due to bad rng.
uupdate?
On what?
@@ArcaneAgent on tricster build for full version?
Same portraits really? They are nice but come one, make new ones or some as dlc for consoles...
I believe they are going to add new portraits
@@ArcaneAgent Cool, really looking foward to that.
LE'gurDE'main.
I'll still mess it up i swear
A presentation quibble: As you state the next level you're taking you are reading the class level from the screen --- which is the level you already have. Annoying for someone trying to transcribe your build... whoever might find themselves in such a ridiculous predicament.
Ohhhhh see it was showing level 16 when I was already 16?
Don't really see the point of going Arcane Trickster for this kind of build. As for the whole shadow evocation line of spells, they're all a level lower than what you'd usually get. Sure, the versatility can be useful, but you're already a whole spell level behind as an arcane trickster basing it off an arcanist.
This is true
can you explain what you're using to map out to level 20? lol nvm found your video from a while ago on it.
ruclips.net/video/5MJwWwDkpQ0/видео.html
This build is actually useless, you forgot something VERY major the thing that makes wrath of the rightous what it is....You forgot about your Mythic feats, Mythic Abilites.
Thumbs down mate
Bible quote = downvote
Get ready to downvote every video and stream! Gonna break that downvote button hehe
Why is magic in this game so garbage? I can't do anything in the game unless I have a fighter with me. The cantrips are so bad, along with ranged attacks. How is it that spells in the game has to be a cone or an aoe to be useful? I can't enjoy playing a caster without slashing some melee because everything I do is worthless. Explain the magic system or admit they show no real respect to casters.
Would like to see Oracle or witch.
