Yeah, I named my Paladin's horse "Bad Horse", went with aggressor, and he's a monster. It's basically like having a 7th party member.Pets were OP as fuck in the fist one too. This is why everyone used the pet classes/summoners to clear the game on the highest difficulties.
I am going Lich right now but next playthrough is totally going to be the Swarm that Walks or Gold Dragon.
You can adjust the difficulty on the fly in the options menu. I don't know if you can do it in mid battle but you can do it between battles I'm pretty certain.I had been following that meat shield video a few pages back. I didn't realize that Lich could be missed out on completely with no way to unlock after the fact. I tried to pivot to another Mythic class but when I went to respec in game it only let me choose trickster. Bit bummed.
Is it possible to adjust the difficulty up mid run? Considering rerolling in story difficulty and going full evil and then upping the difficulty once I get back to this spot.

Edit: how the fuck is a two handed scythe not a reach weapon
I'm not exactly feeling the majesty of a war between Heaven and the Abyss being waged by tripping. Especially when a good number of those involved either have tree trunk legs or fly.
Yeah, I fucking hate class-dipping and multi-classing just as a general rule. However, most min/max Pathfinder builds pretty much require it. You can make some really busted shit with it. Plus, you can't really do the hardest difficulty without that level of min/maxing. I'm on Core just using companions and even that is tough as shit on certain fights, just because of the way Owlcat started off some of them. The ones you get super early are easy enough to salvage (Woljif into Vivisectionist is nutty - dex mutagen with feral mutagen and then an amulet of agile fists? Big deeeps) though.I used to really hate dipping as it is so unbelievable immersion breaking to do it. Pathfinder class dipping has so much less penalties than dual classing/multiclassing in Forgotten Realms or similar there is like no reason to not do it.
But as a fantasy nerd it rustles my jimmies that a barbarian would dip into a cross blooded sorcerer for one level just to get the multiple bloodlines and tap out the lvl 20 bloodline feats like in that meat shield build posted a few pages ago. Sounds legit!
Given how utterly insane you can get with the correct dips I can appreciate it more now. Although it's still conceptually stupid. I am thinking up some lvl 40 Legendary builds because I really want to go hog wild with that and see how completely insane it could be.
What's the deal with vivisectionist? I don't think I've even looked at that class, just because there are so many available and it fell off of my radar.Almost all builds have a dip into vivisectionist and then caster/fighter hybrid
They get mutagen at lv1 pls a rank of sneak attack. The mutagen gives you a +2ac natural armor bonus and a plus 4 physical ability bump at the cost of a -2 to wis int or cha of your choice. So a lot of bang for your buck of a 1 lv dip.What's the deal with vivisectionist? I don't think I've even looked at that class, just because there are so many available and it fell off of my radar.
