Pathfinder: Kingmaker Companion Guide
Damage Dealers: Amiri
Above all, get Amiri in your party now!
The wandering barbarian makes for the single best early-game damage dealer in Pathfinder: Kingmaker. Her starting weapon, the Ginormous Sword, deals massive damage at close range. Even with a -2 debuff to attack rolls, that devastating weapon can carry her through several levels of the game.
Due to her massive strength bonus, Amiri’s best used in her default Barbarian class. Remember to keep her in light/medium armor, and send her into battle after your tanks engage the enemies.
Tips:
- Equip Amiri with the party’s best available defense/constitution buffs.
- Shield of Faith, Mage Armor, Enlarge Person, and Touch of Glory will prevent her from going down quickly in fights.
- Level up Amiri’s Athletics and Lore: Nature skills (seriously!). These help round out party weaknesses and make Amiri your camp’s designated hunter.
- Send Amiri in after the tanks engage! Her lack of defensive abilities causes Amiri to lose health easily as a vanguard fighter.
Pathfinder: Kingmaker Best Companions Guide – Damage Dealers: Jubilost
Ah, Jubilost. Once this alchemist joins your party, he’s likely never going to leave.
His vast intelligence and high dexterity make Jubilost one of the best straight-up damage dealers in Pathfinder: Kingmaker. On top of his ranged attacks, Jubilost’s primary Alchemist class allows an array of bombs to take down enemy groups. If packs of giant spiders, troublesome trolls, or large manticores have whittled down your inventory bomb supply, Jubilost will fix that problem immediately.
Jubilost works best as a pure alchemist. Because of his growing supply of bombs, precious gold won’t go towards merchants. Rely upon his abilities instead for those tough fights.
Tips:
- Take these three feats ASAP:
- Ability Focus – Bombs, Extra Bombs, Throw Anything
- Very reliable damage dealer with the Devourer of Metal longbow. His high Dexterity can help compensate the -2 attack roll
- Pumping stats into Knowledge: World/Arcane receive massive boosts with Jubilost’s high Intelligence
