Adding to the count: over two years since you posted, still being really really helpful.
Glad you enjoyed it. I'm focusing on wrath of the righteous for content right now. I've been in beta and I think it is going to be an amazing game.
Your vids are awesome dude, keep the knowledge coming!
Just letting you know that even a year and a half after posting you're still helping folk (like me! Hey! Hi! Thanks!)
Thanks! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it!
@Mohammad Wells Now this is new. Never thought I'd see creeps advertising a product with stalking. Why would you want to break into the account of your significant other to begin with? That's some weirdo advertising
Nice guides, you're very good at explaining your rationale in a way that's understandable! Hope you can find the time to do more - the sequel to this game is coming out in the not too distant future.
Thank you! I hope I can find the time to play the sequel!
Great builds on your channel, very helpful, thx a lot. :)
I really like your content, its well thought out and well presented. Hope you continue 👍🙂
Using your build videos as a go-to in my own playthrough! They're incredibly well made so it would be nice to see some more - namely caster guides
Stop being a brainlett, make your own builds.
@ Let people do whatever they want. If you don't want to copy a build then don't do it, but don't tell people what to do
nice build, thx!;)
That's nasty!
Great stuff!
I am curious, do you think Slayer can do better than this?
Really like your builds would be cool to see a lets play of pathfinder from u if u still play the game
Good guide ;)
I prefer going regular Ranger for the pet which is an extra body to tank and deal DPS. Smilodon is no joke when he grows at level 7,especially with buffs on him which is just so huge. I do agree though that fighter is a better "plug and play" option for higher consistent damage and even being more durable at higher levels because of not needing Wisdom and he can use medium armor at higher levels where the ranger can't without substantial penalty. Also in preferred terrain and preferred enemies the Ranger will outshine Fighter.(Boar pet is another good option because its so damn durable but won't have the dps of Smilodon).
If you do want a maximum possible consistent damage with the least micro then this build is obviously the best and you can't really perfect it anymore. You could dip into Rogue as well but the BaB is not as good so you will miss more at the cost of having a strong sneak attack. One more thing to note when min/maxing is with this build your saving throws won't be quite as good with going Ranger but that can be mitigated for the most part (including save scum :P) Great guide though!
nice build. just one question, though: why didn't you take a two-level dip into magus (eldritch archer) to get an additional attack via spell strike? i did that with ekundayo and he pumps out damage like crazy.
Really like your build videos. Would you be willing to do a druid build? The other casters seems more straight forward, but druid seems more complex.
The "Deadly Aim Helmet" isn't available for a long long time.
does cluster shots nerf your overall damage by damaging a single target with all attacks that round essentially overkill at times? wouldnt you rather only spend the attacks to the point of a kill and then the rest to another target and so on?
Would this work for an Elf, I'm looking for a build for Vyleen, one of the prebuilds, but I prefer doing it myself, as there's no benefit for playing the ones in the game other than Hedwirg, who gets more start points.
What was the 1st level dip?
Love your builds!
already using the halfling untouchable tank build it is real fun!
in this archer build, couldnt i go two-handed fighter instead of standard fighter?
it seems that longbow also counts as two-handed in this situation?!
No, it's marked as ranged weapon so it doesn't get the bonuses from two weapon fighter.
Besides you won't use Power Attack with a bow.
Hi, this probably won't be noticed for a while, but I'd like to say each build you posted so far is excellent! I used respec mod on challenging to apply this build to MC + Ekun to double target mobs and it was an absolute machine gun blast
Is it possible to request a build for a pure DC/Nuke sorcerer, I think your take on will be interesting
I appreciate the kind words! I probably won't be making any pathfinder videos any time soon though. Maybe when the sequel comes out!
Can you make a kineticist build? Im realy enjoying your videos.
Why no 2 level eldritch archer dip?
I think a class with hurricane bow would be a good lvl 1 dip, that plus enlarge person, plus deadly aim. add 2 size categories to weapon damage, +2 damage on all ranged damage rolls. thats 2 extra dice.
wow what a silly n00b I am. was expecting a ranger build. ekendayo is just a freaking monster pure ranger. is there a ranger/fighter/vivi version? or simply worse than this one?
Nice archery build!
I'm currently playing through the game using your halfling tank build and I'm having alot of fun. Almost nothing can touch me unless they crit.
If you're planning on making other builds in the future it would be interesting to see a cleric build. Maybe a cleric of Asmodeus.
Thank you! I love to hear when people are enjoying or using my videos. I'll try to do a Cleric of Asmodeus build in the near future.
That tank build is awesome. Have maybe biggest AC from all tanks what i try. Have only one problem :( isnt caster then you miss Mirror Image. Its probably best tank spell in game :)
I know this video is 4 years old and the 2nd game is out. but do you still make content fo this game? I need a crazy Sorcerer build. I cant seem to get my feats right and no other builds are like yours
I found your channel mr warren
Are the levels in Vivisectionist +1 to hit per level. If not will this not negatively effect his performance in Unfair mode?
Vivisectionist is a 3/4 BAB class, We get +5 BAB from the 7 levels of vivi. The 2 BAB loss is made up for with Mutagen.
Well u could get 1 Level Baberian caus the rage gives a bonus to hit and dmg not to streangh so u will have +2 to hit and Damage and maybe a second level for the rage power that gives accuracy :D
does the mutagen add up to any other buff? cause otherwise it feels useless
The mutagen stacks with all other buffs and gear. This makes it very, very strong and many builds dip Vivisectionist 1 just to get it
Great build, only thing I'd change is: at level 10 you said the weapon training can be whatever and picked "Axes" but actually composite longbows benefit from the 2 handed weapon training and since the devourer of metal is a composite longbow with 2d6 poison damage and 2d6 regular damage. that two handed weapon training really comes in handy
Sorry to ask a dumb question but why do you have 25 attribute points to start and I have 23?
Bah just realized it's because I am making a mercenary and they don't get all the points.
hi uh can you tell me these bows that you are talking about thanks spoil please :)
also, does this build get full BAB?
Alchemist levels don’t have full BAB, but they do have 3/4ths BAB, Sneak Attack, buff spells, and Mutagens.
why did you stop posting videos?
Fatherhood, work, corona, lots of other obligations. I have a new video I'm publishing right now for WotR. Check it out if you like these build videos!
Hey this was my favorite build in Kingmaker is this still viable for WOTR?
Yes but honestly I think a straight mutation warrior archer or throwing axe build with or without trickster feats is going to be even better.
@@bolshyplays1733 I get you now.. so basically take mutation warrior and build it out exactly like this one?
Does TWO WEAPON FIGHTING feat boost archery?
Not archery but it does affect throwing weapons if you are dual wielding throwing weapons
I don’t see vivisectionist or whatever. I just got the game free on PSNow am I missing something? Should I just do a different rogue?
It is an alchemist archetype
@@bolshyplays1733 ok thanks
I would go 4 levels of rogue from levels 3-6, you can pick up weapon focus and another combat feat, you get 2d6 sneak attack, way more skill points and class skills as well as a better reflex save; you lose 1 bab and your fort save is slightly worse.
if youre running this as MC its a good idea to take Crusader (Erastil, Law) at level 1 so that you can get a certain unique spell as a quest reward in the end game only given to divine casters
Why does no one play on turn based mode? Like the tabletop game
I really like turn-based mode but it literally increases encounter length by 10x or so and I just don't have that kind of time.
does the alchemist / vivi need a minimum of intelligence to cast x level spells?
Yes. As long as you start with 10 you will be able to cast max levels spells using easily obtained stat boosters.
Why alchemist and not straight rogue, getting more sneak attack dices
The mutagen bonus, a 10 minute buff to your dex, and some spells
@@rolandlaflamme2128 And that is really worth losing sneak attack dices? :S
@@criticalglitch2384 no clue actually. I'm not great at creating min/max builds. I was just trying to explain why he did it
Hammer the Gap would give you even more dmg :)

why dex instead of str?
Ranged weapons use dex for attack bonus. Composite bows add strength to damage so strength is still useful for archers just not as important as dex.
because level 20 is rarely reached and if at all at the end of the game, I come to prefer even numbers on the preferred attribute (this case 20 dex); you benefit from even attribute levels much sooner and round up at lvl 16 which should be just entering the end game on a completionist playthrough; I drop strength to 14 as it equates to just 1 point of damage and some carry weight
There is no problem getting to level 20 now with all DLCs.
This build still good today?
For kingmaker probably. I would just go 20 levels of mutation warrior with this build in wotr
@@bolshyplays1733 I'm playing.kingmaker on.ps4 for first time
why do you go dex and not strength?
Dexterity gives you better hit chance and damage, strength buffs just damage.
I can't believe how complicated this game is. I really don't know how to level
That's why the game is so amazing! A huge story, with countless possibilities! is a game that takes months to play 100% of the game! money well spent
@@heroonbush4637 I totally agree with you, but to me its a little too complicated. I love playing on "a bit challenging", but no matter how much research I put into this game, I dont seem to find a way to be good at it
Just leveling up and deciding what to play is challenging for me. 😅
nice guide but i realy have to say that it is realy sad that rangers are so head and shoulders above the other builds
nothing here will match the DPS you get from a pet and arrow combo.. Plus the hits a pet absorbs. I guess if you just want to play a fighter as an archer you can for challenge.
