Wrath of the Righteous isn't quite as punishing, but its rat swarms may still come as a shock. Kingmaker had an infamous early-game encounter with spider swarms that demolished many a new player because in the Pathfinder rules those spider swarms can only be hurt by elemental damage, which low-level parties don't have much of. A protagonist who leads from the front can balance that. If you play a bard, their ability to cast spells while holding a shield means you may as well go sword-and-board, and if you want to be a magus they've got an archetype called sword saint that's all about magically buffing weapons and armor.Īny class can work, but if you like to leave companions in their roles rather than giving them a respec makeover, you'll end up with a surplus of back-row choices. Cavalier and warpriest both seem apt for a game about joining a crusade, and cavaliers get to try the new mounted combat system.

Bloodrager is a popular choice-a barbarian with supernatural powers based on their bloodline. Which is why, if you're having trouble choosing between the 25 (!) base classes, it's worth narrowing it down to those good at going toe-to-toe. Hours later you accrue a selection of frontline fighters to choose from, but even then you'll probably end up with multiple archers competing for any magic longbows. While you do get a paladin to tank with, the rest of your party will be an archer, a spirit hunter (tough later, fragile at low levels), and then a rogue, witch, oracle, and wizard. It's not quite as rough as Kingmaker, which threw you into the tutorial with only a flimsy gnome illusionist and a halfling bard as backup, but there's still a slight bias in the companions. It's worth a heads-up that early on your party will lean toward ranged characters.
