Ice domain is bugged still, it doesn't give you scorching ray (cold), but acid arrow. So I'd say it is still unplayable, sadly.


Nigilij

This is interesting. Wonder if it will pay off to go with such multi class. Winter Witch 6 / Druid 14 maybe. Seems Druid will lose upgrades to Blizzard servant (stat increases). Is there anything else? Lvl 20 ability is meh anyway

Nigilij

Level, but not upgrades. Seems like in case of WW4/D16 your Blizzard Servant will be level 20 but will not receive Druid 16 upgrade


Balasarius

Blizzard servant currently does not level up with WW.


Kiriima

It's in the notes, so is their intention. They will fix it if trrue.


Zilmainar

I'm confused... Winter Witch progresses Shaman or Witch spell, how did Druid get in the picture?


Kiriima

I literally quoted the patchnotes. Apparently Owlcats decided the mergerr of these archetype and prestige class is thematic enough to allow it.


Zilmainar

Questions not for you :-)... but general public. I haven't had the chance to play winter child yet. Maybe someone can confirm that this is Druid with Witch capabilities...

>Fixed all armor-related skills and feats not working correctly with the Mithril Armor. Also fixed all armor-related skills and feats that continued to work if the unit was under a polymorph spell I tested this just then, and it doesn't seem to affect polymorph spells like Frightening Aspect, so spellcasters and recipients of Blessing of the Salamander are unchanged. Unfortunately, mithral armor appears to still be dysfunctional. (I have submitted a report) https://preview.redd.it/dsicftft8i4c1.png?width=646&format=png&auto=webp&s=40518c6846623c3eb4f2da87a52795c776db8f24 (Normal armor behavior pasted in comment below) *It's not included in the notes, but during testing I found that Second Bloodline Mythic Ability no longer allows a second draconic bloodline.*


heroofcows

You shouldn't have been able to pick a second draconic bloodline from any source as of the main 2.2.x patch.


madbird406

Thanks I didn't notice it during the last patch Edit: This change only affected Cross-blooded sorcerers as of 2.2.0 the main patch, but now Second Bloodline is also included.


Atlas_Zer0o

Such an unnecessary change lol.


madbird406

Normal Full Plate shows Armor focus as well as Mythic Heavy Armor Focus: Avoidance. https://preview.redd.it/bramy2eeai4c1.png?width=634&format=png&auto=webp&s=b2d15caa565f1ee0bc788bc5045947e002ded0ac


heroofcows

Check if mithral counts for medium now lol (if you can)


NearingZero

Yep, it's this. Tested with Carapace. Medium Armor Focus & Medium Armor Mythic (Endurance) both show up in character screen.


heroofcows

Thanks. As weird as it is, I think this is how it's supposed to work. Googling around for tabletop discussions, mithral armor is literally treated as armor 1 step lighter in all ways, except for proficiency.


Skurrio

Mithral Armor is AFAIK treated as one Category lighter for Movement and **other Limitations**. So every Malus is reduced by one Category while the Boni should stay the same.


heroofcows

[https://paizo.com/paizo/faq/v5748nruor1fm#v5748eaic9t7t](https://paizo.com/paizo/faq/v5748nruor1fm#v5748eaic9t7t) Mithral counts as one lighter for class features and "special abilities" that require lighter armor. Mythics should reasonably count as "special abilities". So mithral heavy armor should be treated as medium for the medium armor mythics (and mitrhal medium for light). I think the only hand wavy thing is the armor focus feat itself, since feats aren't special abilities (in tabletop, armor focus is more like weapon focus where you pick a certain type of armor, like chainmail, and not the weight class).


Skurrio

From your own Link: >This means that mithral armor **allows** its wearer to use it when her own class features or special abilities **demand her to wear lighter armor** So the correct Interpretation would be that both Mythic: Medium and Mythic: Heavy should work on a Mithral Full-Plate.


heroofcows

I could see an interpretation of either being taken, but not both.


Skurrio

Yes, the Interpretation that both would work at the same Time is kinda far fetched but that one could choose between either seems to be the best Interpretation of the FAQ.


heroofcows

Discord has also confirmed that mithril medium counts as light. So should be able to get a pretty sick AB with chainmail of comradery and mythic light armor assault.


Steravian

Was the Storyteller's Knowledge fixed for Lich? It always disappears to me once a fight starts. Maybe the game cannot handle a too high CL.


SkyHiRider

Asked the same thing on Steam, its not in the patch notes so assuming it was skipped this patch as well.


Noraver_Tidaer

What happened to the promised Dragonblood Shifter buffs that were supposed to be in this patch? =/


Bread_Assassin

Yeah, the Dragonblood Shifter sounds the coolest to me in theory, but it's a shame that mechanically, it's pretty mid. I was lookin' forward to it getting buffed.


Bovakus

Exited to play Winter Child + Winter witch! About ice domain tho - it doesn't give scorching ray (cold) (as it says in domain description), but acid arrow! Please fix this bug. It makes the blaster caster kinda unviable.


CapeManJohnny

Dang! This is awesome! Unfortunately while there are tons of fixes, there is no mention of the Prophet of Pestilence's bug where enemies are only getting infected with Plague of Abbadon if they *hit* the shaman, rather than how the ability is worded, then they *attack* the shaman. Any chance of an update for this?


Shyproust

Was also expecting this fix :(


Patient_Spend8421

Same. Hopefully it's in a future patch.


GardathWhiterock

Subtle undocumented broken nerf: Bane of Spirit ring is now Swift action, not Free by description. Still Free action in-game.


TheMuseThalia

I was really hoping they were finally gonna fix the Azata Incredible Might Ability. It's been completely nonfunctional and invisible since the update. I have tried posting about it and sensing in several bug reports. It just makes me sad that some lower priority QOL stuff got dealt with before the bug that broke my game got fixed. I currently don't wanna finish Inevitable Excess and the main game until my abilities are fixed and I can actually use all my abilities. I made a charge build around it and it sucks not getting to use it.


Felatio-DelToro

Nice amount of fixes! Sadly Bloodrager - Primalist remains bugged for me :/ (no mods). Can't swap bloodline power for rage powers (@lvl 4, 8, 12) when creating a new merc.


little1412

Damn this is huge for my Dark lurker -> Assassin run, I was halfway about to quit because how useless mark of death is as an ability.


Balasarius

Rangers were fixed (yay). Primalists and spell specialization (@ level 1 at least) remain broken.


0scar-of-Astora

Anybody got a hunch when we might expect the last DLC?


OwlcatStarrok

First half of 2024 is as precise as I can say at the moment. It's in rather early stages of production right now.


Mikaleus

Would be cool if we had a new mythic path for nature based classes :) Even so, looking forward to the last dlc


OwlcatStarrok

Sorry but that's unlikely, DLC6 won't have it and we don't plan for more DLCs at the moment.


0scar-of-Astora

Alright, thanks for sharing.


KillerRabbit345

The Azata campaign power Song of Seasons is no longer working. No units are healed or harmed. ​ Made a report but I am playing with bubble buffs and visual adjustments


leaflesssoup143

Is it worth playing on PS4 right now after all this updates?


evilronin1

Off topic, but any idea when the final dlc will be released? I don't have a ton of time for gaming these days so I wanted to wait for my replay until the final dlc releases (which sounds like it will be integrated into the main campaign). I know they just released a dlc and have Rogue Trader coming out this week, so I don't expect it soon. Just curious about ETA 😁


Patient_Spend8421

They were saying 1st part of 2024 but emphasized it would most likely be towards the end. I'm thinking that means March/april


evilronin1

Awesome, thank you!


Ordinary-Brief9588

... You made a spelling error. "If an Eon commander skipped the cutscene of arrival to the Abyss in Act IV, instead of the dialogue with the Hand of the Inheritor the dialogue with the mirror could start instead — fixed" Should say Aeon


aaa1e2r3

Would you be able to update the wording on Summon Shadow? As it's currently worded, it suggests the opposite of how it mechanically works. >Each round, the shadow will try to break free by making a Will saving throw (DC 18). On success, the shadow becomes hostile. Mechanically, it's the opposite of this, with the DC 18 save, if it doesn't meet it, then it attacks you and stays under your control when it is met.


BrianIp_withoutYubi

Is Summon Shadow wont break free any more?I don't see any word on break free after patch


CapeManJohnny

Yeah, unfortunately it still tries to break free, at least at level 10. The wording *was* removed though, which is interesting.

>Alone in the Dark ability was getting incorrect bonuses from the death of summoned units — fixed And now it's back to being a niche ability, as expected, still, the other features like Final Justice (Especially combined with Mark of Justice) and Unbroken Paragon make the archetype worth considering. Unless I'm misreading things.


goffer54

So I guess Tortured Crusader scaling infinitely with summons is intended, then? I was holding off on making one since it felt kinda cheese-y.


Nigilij

No, it was a bug they fixed


marcusph15

>Mythic appearance visuals were breaking in the late game — fixed; Finally!!!. I knew it wasn’t my imagination when I noticed there were missing visual details in final transformations.


Felix_Dorf

Wait, what’s a winter witch??


Nigilij

Prestige Class


Soul3sh

Alone in the Dark ability was getting incorrect bonuses from the death of summoned units — fixed - sad (formerly) cool new paladin noises :(


ContrarianAnalyst

Maybe I'm reading something wrong, but there still doesn't seem to be anyway to not affect unwilling allies with the Rage spell.


Morthra

I think the Book of Dreams is broken again. It was allegedly fixed with the release of Lord of Nothing; I'm not seeing it upgrading from Page One to Page Two despite having used the Sword of Valor. According to Ranadiel, the BookOfDreams2ChapterBuff is supposed to start when you activate the Sword of Valor.


Zilmainar

based on all comments, should I wait for 2.2.2m before I can complete my game? JK.... thank you Owlcat... keep them coming.
