No Kineticist?

[Mortis]

I tried the Kineticist but I hated it.

[CHAO$$$]

This is a very questionable list ;)))
not touching this topic after that starting post

[Mortis]

Maybe, I never play solo. The inquisitor archer with greater bane and judgements is surprisingly lethal. Archeologist can do everything, Bards with Cacophonous Call make unfair a cakewalk.

[InEffect]

That list literally lists everything that is not the best for unfair. Won't go further than that as well.

[Mortis]

That's ok with me. It is just my personal list.

[razvedchiki]

i tried an aldori defender/monk in hard and it was preety solid,very high ac and decent dmg.

[Mortis]

Sounds good! I try to avoid melee classes for my main character on unfair. If your main character dies it's game over.

no 2-h fighter? they're so utterly powerful without any real drawbacks

[1ttffsse]

2-h fighter is made of glass, need help from party to survive.

S/God tier classes are kineticist, arcane classes with pet, and grenadier. These three can do it all: excellent damage, cc, support - and ac can be ramped to make surviveable. the rest are bellow as they are not excellent in at least of those three departments.

Sure bards/thundercaller are good for they are god tier support not all round mvps like the three classes/archetypes listed above.

No Kineticist, Magus or Vivisectionist? This list is a fail.

[InEffect]

caller actually falls off a whole lot on unfair. he can top out at 31DC give or take. that's not enough to beat unfair saves. There are more arguments for a default bard than for caller if you go to unfair.

[Mortis]

Thundercaller is good on unfair because their AOE ability always hits damage wise. It is a lifesaver during the very difficult level 3 to 6 build up. Vivisectionist is not that good in my opinion (bad spells, no animal companion, very difficult start on unfair). Eldritch Scoundrel is a much better sneak attacker (mirror image, magic armor, sense vitals, hurricane bow).

[haplok]

Haha! Good joke about Eldritch Scoundrel vs Vivisectionist. Haven't had a good laugh like that for a long time...

[Mortis]

My elf Eldritch Scoundrel is devestating on unfair (grease, web, pits, greater invisibilty and unlimited sneak attacks)!
