Pathfinder WOTR | Charade Crusade | 03.6 | Extra Footage | Flooded Maze, Mongrel Brute Fights

Includes some slides for the Mongrel Brute; toughest mob in this section. (I'm categorizing the Large Water Elemental as a mini boss not mob).

Nice run)
Is rest spam in the maze really so safe? I mean, even one random guy with glaive can be a problem if he manages to land a hit. And when resting there is always a chance enemy can catch you unprepared for proper fight.

I've been through this process three times (had a change of heart a couple of times), going through many ambushes each time.
The ambushes in the Shield Maze are really weak-either a couple insects or a lvl1 Baphomet Cultist. You don't need your whole party or buffs to easily clear them. Even if surprised, the worst that happens is a companion gets hit once and contracts a disease. Due to the way I was positioned this ended up being Camellia every time.
The Cultist is actually the easier fight. He tends to spawn further away, is slow, and prebuffs (I think; I almost always kill him in round 1). He also drops better loot.
However, later in the game, ambushes become very dangerous due to the increased reliance on buffs (as you are probably aware).

​@@DjaliPlays Ya, later in the game, especially if your guards fail their checks you are almost 100% doomed D
Still, the fact you can safely rest in maze makes LA unfair a bit more realistic in my eyes)
