Mythic Trickster - Arcana 3 Rank *items examples*

[Fluff]

Does anyone have Arcana 3 Rank in Mythic Trickster path?

What items did you get with it's bonus passives, especially strong and unexpected one?

That random major and minor bonuses upon identifying is almost the only reason i want to go for the 2nd playthrough as a Mythic Trickster (first is/was Azata and it's awesome in every possible way). Outside of that thinking about demon path, but am very curious about that Trickster feat to see the examples of some insane items if there are, and if they are worth the whole path.

You mean not because if you pump Cha/Persuasion build - your enemies will be shaken, paralyzed and try to coup-de-grace themselves at the beginning of combat? Welcome to the world of Trickster with Persuasion-3. Or not because with Mobility tricks a trickster can literally run around naruto style and whenever enemy should get an AoO - Trickster gets it instead? You literally run around in circles with Expedited Retreat/Haste and stuff dies.

Arcana is quite.. mundane compared to other mythic tricks. I'm about to get that sweet rank-2 in it at some point so I'd share what I find. For now Arcana-1 bugs out the descriptions a bit, but it seems to add enchantment bonus ok to weapons/armors. In jewelry.. it seems to work? but there is no description update.

Yeah i know Mobility can be broken. But Cha/Persuasion scales only of your level, not your +modifier, did they change it? Because from what i read it was pretty useless later game, coz almost everyone has saves +30 +40.

I'm interested in Arcana coz of looting yes. I love getting insanenly generated items, hilarious items or overpowered items, so for me that's almost the only reason to go that path. Or at least the main reason paired with one of the feats you wrote as example.

I'm interested to see the examples of such items but they almost no exist at forums/reddit//etc, so i have no idea how powerful they can be (Arcana Rank 3 specificly and Rank 2 somewhat). Is that major bonus just +d4 roll to dmg for example, or smth smth else.

It screws with the description - the items add more, but are not renamed. Additionally, in case of weapons/armours get two Enhancement +x lines in the "qualities" list. In other words, a nightmare to keep track of.

Still, it works with all enhancement items and is quite powerful.

Yes, also pure RNG, can (and should a bit) be save-load abused to get different rolls. That's why it's also funny - you get different 'playstyle' from the same items you saw in 1st playthrough.

Also it works with Boss items you loot, as i know, some of which are already powerful.
AND items you craft in your kingdom screen (artifacts)

It works with literally everything except storebought items. I'm prety sure even crusade artefacts you "identify" upon reception, thus they get dice-blessed.


Just have to remember rank 1 only increases ENHANCEMENT bonuses. Natural armour != enhancement. Resitance != enhancement. Deflection !=enhancement. Not all +x items will be improved because not all are enhancement.

Yeah i'm not hyped about rank 1 coz of that, but very hyped about rank 2 and 3. They work with almost everything, so i'm very much want to see what people got from it.

But seems not a lot of people played Trickster Mythical path yet, or at least doing that with Arcana 3. So seems will go for it in 2nd playtrough with 2H Crit Focused Trickster, idk how strange that would be.

Its great that even some of the belts and headbands get the +1 bonus. Belt of Strength +4 giving actually 5 bonus not 4 etc. (doesnt seem to work propperly on armor rings and necklaces :( )

My circlet of intellect +7 disagrees.

Armor gets +1 correctly. I don't think a single ring and necklace exists with enhancement bonuses, so there's nothing to increase in the first place.

Btw, items with + to several stats. Do they get +1 more to all those several stats or 1 random?

Like circlet +6 to all mental attributes. Or belt to physical.

All.

Do the items still lose their boni if you stack them with normal ones? I remember reading about people losing their enchantment bonus because they had similar items in the inventory and the stacking deleted the new enhancements.
