Use hirelings more :D

[meleander]

There are few spells that are very good - like Longstrider, Heroe's Feast, Protection from Poison, etc.

Best to have 3 of them - 1 that have Longstrider and 2 with Heroe's Feast and Protection from Poison. They can also have Remove Curse, Restoration, Greater Restoration, etc.

Now at the start of the day, just cast Longstrider, Heroe's Feast, Protection from Poison, etc on your team (you can cast Protection from Poison as a higher tiered spell, so you won't have problems with not enough spells). After that just sent the to camp, get your fourth guy and go have fun :D

Also if you're after a fight and need some Remove Curse etc you can just go to camp, get those removed, and come back without losing your spell slots :D

And if you want to, you can always get them shirtless ;-)

What does that have to do with hirelings ?
I love Maddala and she is always with me as soon as I get level 3, ofc.
But nothing of that OP preconize hirelings.

Because you don't want to use your normal spell slots from your team - Heroes' Feast is a 6 level spell. And to cast Protection from Poison for your whole team takes a lot.

Also - if that wasn't clear, you need to remake hirelings into clerics.

Also at level 10 a hireling Cleric can make you a legendary weapon for free.

Still not really making sense. Unless you suggesting keep changing your group to use "spell slots" instead of just using a potion that will have mostly the same economic overall result, is smart, which isnt in any measure.

By the time you can make "a legenday weapon" with a cleric hireling that worth somethng you already have legendary weapons enough to not need it. Unless you dont do anything but dialogue kill everything you need to do strictly to get to the next level.

Why do that with a hireling, just respec one of the companions to do it?

[Estevan Valladares]

As I said before, not all smart ideas are good ideas.

You could replace the bow by a gun and rename the show from Arrow to Barrel.

That would be a smart idea, not a good idea though.

[Zeel Ara]

Because the game isn't already easy enough.

People use the buff bots so that use other classes instead and/or retain spell uses for other spells.

That said, don't really see the point. I mean, people say the game is easy on tactician, and if that's the case, they shouldn't need the buffs. And if it is fine on tactician while using this type of munchkin tactic, then just play one of the lower difficulties so you don't have to go through the buffing hassles.

But hey, if spending the time to swap characters around and such makes the game more enjoyable for them, then more power to 'em.

No mention of warding bond, really?!
You know there are a crap load of videos out on Hireling camp buffs, etc., yes?

Well it has it's uses. It's easier to switch a party member than to respec.

I got a wizard hireling with transmutation subclass with max wisdom and medicine expertise. I use him for alchemy as transmutation school can double the potions if you pass a medicine check of 15. For 90-95%, i double my production of potions. Use for those rare one like universal resistance, hill giant, cloud giant and etc. I even have an extra hag's potion in my inventory.

Doest what thoust willest with this vessel...

Lmao its not that big of a deal to have a slot for those spells.

4 lvl 2 spell slots?

Sometimes I wonder what is going on in thought processes for people like you to say that 4 lvl 2 spell slots are not big of a deal.
