It feels like this place needs a much bigger party. I'll probably come back later. Edit: I'm probably fucking up a quest by doing this too early as well Temple of Eothas? If so, you won’t mess anything up by doing it now. But I’d be very surprised if you can pull it off with a low level party of 2. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCzarsHussar Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Just hiring a level 1 paladin has made the temple much more manageable. Im able to (barely) handle groups of five enemies, whether they're shadows or ghuls. No way in hell I'd do it with just my druid and wizard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a Fighter who can tank for your casters and make fights much more manageable. If you rest at the inn, you’ll have a dream. Follow up on it and he will approach you when you’re done. One of my favorite characters, honestly. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Companions who are dismissed and not currently in the party will gain too, but just a fraction. That way nobody falls too far behind. Companions you haven’t met yet will usually start a level below whatever you are when you find them. You can also respec any companion at any time, so if you meet someone at level 6 and don’t like how the game built them, you can redo it to your liking. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCzarsHussar Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 After all that, and the absolutely brutal king fight, I feel like it was wasted because the dude at the entrance of the ruin died somehow way back in my first attempt at the ruins. I don't even know what killed him as I never led enemies that way 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can confront him about what you discovered down there, how you know that he knew where they were sealed but told no one. You can then choose to kill him, threaten to report him, drive him out of town, or convince him to go out and try to atone. Best part of the interaction is if you have Edér with you, he’ll get very angry, saying that he’d have dug them out with his bare hands if he’d known they were trapped. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celan Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 I really don't remember all this stuff from PoE- Pathfinder is quite demanding so I studied up on the builds and it knocked out all the info I had in my little brain on PoE. I have clear memories from PoE on being an OP druid blasting through everything until I met enemy druids. That temple fight is also very hard if you forgot/ didn't see Eder to pick him up. Those are the two difficulty spikes I remember. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are the two difficulty spikes I remember. The temple kicked my butt the first time I tried it. Then I returned 1 level later Edér, Aloth, and Durance and made it my bitch. Went back for that bear too expecting a fair fight and just one-shot it. I’ll tell you what’s given me grief on my current playthrough. That damn black ooze in the Endlass Paths of Cad Nua. I got through that level, but it was tough. Since then, I’ve got a full party and am two levels higher, so I could probably go back and make some progress this time around. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celan Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Ah, Durance. My buddy. Had to write dirty fanfiction about him. BTW if you were wondering if The Witcher season 3 was as bad as expected- wonder no more. I'm giving up on it in episode 2. The only worthy screen time was when Henry Cavill was either alone on the screen or alone with a monster. The rest is just moronic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
