What protects against Blasphemy?

[VigilanteJustice]

I have every buff imaginable, but Blasphemy is wrecking me. What counters it? Not Protection from Evil, not Unbreakable Heart, not Death Ward...

Being evil makes you immune to Blasphemy.

Let's see, wiki says:

All creatures within a 40 foot burst, centered on caster.
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Will partial
Spell Resistance: Affected by target's spell resistance
Spell Descriptors: --
Casting Time: --
Spell Effect: Any nonevil creature within the area of a blasphemy spell suffers the following ill effects: If the creature's HD is equal to your caster level, it is dazed.

If the creature's HD is up to your caster level – 1, it is weakened and dazed.
If the creature's HD is up to your caster level – 5, it is paralyzed, weakened, and dazed.
If the creature's HD is up to your caster level – 10, it is killed, paralyzed, weakened, and dazed.

The effects are cumulative and concurrent. A successful Will save reduces or eliminates these effects. Creatures affected by multiple effects make only one save and apply the result to all of the effects. Creatures whose Hit Dice exceed your caster level are unaffected by blasphemy.

Looks like the main thing is just having more hit dice.

SR works. Will saves also help.

It's an evocation, so things like: https://pathfinderwrathoftherighteous.wiki.fextralife.com/Spellbreaker would be extra useful.

You either stack high Will saves, or just don't let enemy cast Blasphemy - CC them, or alpha-strike them.

IIRC its a paralyze effect so everything that protects against paralyze will work against this.

Depending on your mythic path and its bonuses "rupture restraints" mythic ability might be worth picking up early on your main tank so on some mobs (like the gargoyle that casts it) you can run him in, bait the ability you want to deal with and then send in your squad. Works against Nulkineth as well but some of the casters (e.g. in Drezen) that do it wont use the Blasphemy unless multiple characters are near so you might have to sacrifice a pet or 2 to bait it out.

Alternatively if you cant be immune early on you can also stack some saving throw buffs like madness domain active ability, Paladins bestow grace if the char is CHA based etc etc. More work but functionally the same.

Rupture Restraints Mythic should counter the paralyzed and dazed.
Unstoppable Mythic should reduce paralyzed to staggered.
Magic Nullification Mythic should counter it but I think it is bugged.

"If the creature's HD is up to your caster level – 10, it is killed"

So, if you are 17, and guardians near Nocticula's palace are CL 27 (and they are CL 38) - you are killed (unless you make a Will save). I know, because once they ended my Unfair ironman run.

Greater Heroism will give you a +4 Morale bonus to Will saves, and if you have a cleric with Community Domain, you can use Guarded Hearth to create an area that grants you a bonus to all saves equal to the cleric's Wisdom mod

Punching the heretics and demons harder than they can blaspheme, usually does the trick.

You could always try to silence the caster, or CC them in any other way, that prevents casting or taking actions.

Options are Charging in with the Gendarme/Ranger/Barbarian and make teh caster regret ever casting anything with brutal Attacks of Opportunity.

That also works ofc. I've heard it's hard to cast spells when you're dead. Not impossible, but pretty hard.

Kill the f*cker ASAP. Often they do some other stuff first.
