Quests
Fixed the issue, which made it impossible to complete A Bard's Calling quest if several conditions weren’t met at Rushlight Fields.
Turn-Based Mode
The summoned creatures failed to disappear immediately after they died in turn-based mode. Resolution: fixed.
Turn-based combat could fail to end even after all the enemies were dead if an uncontrolled friendly character attacked a dead enemy. Resolution: fixed.
If a character started the turn-based combat with a full attack, the Initiative roll wasn’t made until all the hits were finished, which resulted in the incorrect calculation of the flat-footed effect. Resolution: fixed.
Characters that did not act in the surprise round were no longer flat-footed at the start of the first normal round, but according to rules, that condition should have remained until the characters’ turn. Resolution: fixed.
You could order more than one character to perform Charge or some other aggressive action before starting the battle in turn-based mode, which caused the game to freeze or the turn to be skipped automatically. Resolution: fixed.
Detecting a trap or some other hidden object could interrupt Charge in turn-based mode, which could cause the turn to freeze in some cases. Resolution: fixed.
In turn-based mode, when spells with the ultimate range were used, prediction sometimes showed that the spell would be applied but then the spell failed because the character did not have enough time. Resolution: fixed.
In turn-based mode, if a monk switched between combat styles, the new style wasn’t applied until the next turn. Resolution: fixed. Now the new style is applied immediately if the monk has not already used his attack in the current turn.

Classes & Mechanics
The duelist’s Parry ability did not work properly and had an incorrect description. Resolution: fixed.

Resolution: fixed.
Smart cursor failed to suggest that a magus make a full or normal attack by default if the magus had a charged spell and Spell Strike was on. Resolution: fixed.
The druid’s pets had no bonus against trip maneuvers. They should have had a bonus from the number of legs. A centipede also had no immunity to trip. Resolution: fixed.
The description of the ranger’s Archery Style incorrectly stated that it granted pinpoint targeting (instead of Improved Critical it actually provided). Resolution: fixed.
The bard’s song stopped immediately without Lingering Performance. Resolution: fixed. Now it is active until the end of the round.
Singing Steel Breastplate failed to speed up switching the bard’s songs on. Resolution: fixed.
The Endurance feat only granted the ability to sleep in medium and heavy armor and did not give other bonuses. Resolution: fixed.
Fixed the description of the Vital Strike feats.
Heroic Invocation made the characters fatigued after the effect ended. Resolution: fixed.
Blind Fight now correctly makes your character not considered flat-footed against melee attacks.
Corrupting Touch ignored bonuses to AC that affected other touch attacks of incorporeal creatures. Resolution: fixed.
Acrobatic Movement, Treat Affliction, and Demoralize sometimes were not available to characters. Resolution: fixed.
Using Acrobatic Movement to avoid attacks of opportunity slowed the character more than intended. Resolution: fixed.
Stone Fist was resolving attacks against touch AC instead of normal AC. Resolution: fixed.

Several damage-increasing effects were incorrectly increased by abilities granting a bonus to damage, such as Smite Evil. Resolution: fixed.
The effects, which are normally applied to all the characters at the location, stopped working. Resolution: fixed.
Vordakai’s Fear Aura ability now correctly works with Remove Fear and other effects against fear.
Base Attack Bonus (BAB) of ranged and melee attacks was sometimes calculated incorrectly on the character’s page in the console version.
Lethal Stance gave a bonus to attack with unspecified type, thus stacking with everything, although its description stated that it should give competence bonus. Resolution: fixed.
Ghosts and Bloody Bones Beasts had a higher reflex bonus than intended. Resolution: fixed.
Prediction failed to work when aiming at characters’ portraits. Resolution: fixed.
Items
Several druids complained that they couldn’t find any ordinary quarterstaffs to buy. Resolution: a new consignment of quarterstaffs is going to be delivered to traders.
Amulet of Mighty Fists did not give any benefits to overcoming DR /magic and incorporeal immunities. Resolution: fixed.
When equipped by a monk, additional attacks granted by the Steelwind sai sometimes failed to stack stacking with additional attacks from Haste. Resolution: fixed.
Storyteller failed to take all your parts of the Ring of Reckless Courage when creating the artifact. Resolution: fixed.
The description of potions incorrectly stated that using them took the same action as using a spell. It should have stated that potions use a move action. Resolution: fixed.
Using spells provided by items caused the character to cast defensively provoked attacks of opportunity. Among such items, only scrolls should be cast defensively and cause the attack of opportunity on a failed defensive check. Resolution: fixed.
Metakinesis cost and effect are now correctly applied to kinetic blades.
User Interface
Race feats weren’t displayed in the class progression in the console version. Resolution: fixed.
If a character leveled up during the battle, the corresponding notification was not displayed on characters. Resolution: fixed.

Immunity to effects was not displayed in the combat log. Resolution: fixed. Now, if the target is immune to an effect, a corresponding message is displayed in the combat log.
Effects and conditions were displayed on enemies right away but a successful Knowledge (Arcana) skill check caused this data block to hide. Resolution: fixed.
The performance of item-related (inventory, vendors, loot) UI elements has been improved.
If you closed the inventory when rotating the character’s model, it was impossible to interact with the items after you re-opened the window. Resolution: fixed.

Custom portraits sometimes got deleted. Resolution: when a player loads a saved game with custom portraits, folders are created with the names that correspond to the portrait identifiers.
Players who reached floor 50 of the Endless Dungeon could have noticed that the enemy difficulty stopped to increase. That turned out to be true: we never imagined that there would be heroes capable of going so deep! The enemies suffered under the players’ onslaught and reported lots of bugs using F11. They asked and we listened! We’ve strengthened them on floor 51 and beyond.
Players who are currently on floors below 50 should expect a leap in difficulty: monsters have gained strengths and they’ll try to strike back fiercely. Stay alert and remember: losing a battle does not mean losing the war! (And you can always let your hero retire.)
In Tenebrous Depths, players encountered subtasks of type "Our descent was halted by a shroud of darkness. We must wait until it disperses." even if there were no shroud of darkness. Such subtasks failed to complete when the shroud of darkness disappeared. Resolution: fixed.

Both Kanerah and Kalikke were present inside the house at the Capital Square at the same time. Resolution: fixed.
After you killed the Spawn of Rovagug once, you could try fighting it again by showing your loot from the dungeon’s boss monsters to the dragon, which resulted in a broken cutscene. Now there is no such option: you can only kill the Spawn of Rovagug once in the plot dungeon.
At Technic League Encampment, the final dialogue with Kalannah could have been terminated early with no way to resume it. Resolution: fixed by adding an option to resume the dialogue with Kalannah.
In some cases, mercenary advisors could fail to resolve the rank-up events. Resolution: fixed.
Items: wands with cantrips were worth 0 gold. Resolution: fixed.
Items: Throwing Axes behaved like a melee weapon. Resolution: fixed.
Audio: some Linux users experienced sound issues. Resolution: fixed.
When you loaded an autosave, some modifiers were incorrectly applied to enemies multiple times. Resolution: multiple modifiers are no longer applied.

The cutscene with Amiri killing the Defaced Sister at Flintrock Grassland failed to start if Amiri was in combat. Resolution: Fixed.
Some giant spiders at first levels of Tenebrous Depths had 5 AC more than they were supposed to. Resolution: Fixed.
Fixed the DC of spells cast by traps.
Now all the items are de-equipped after the respec.

Patch 1.2 (24th January 2019)

Dear pathfinders, As the new year takes its course, we are happy to announce that we're ready to share Version 1.2!

This new pack of fixes and improvements is based on your suggestions we keep receiving both from forums and the in-game reporting system (available by pressing F11). Thank you so much for your contribution - your feedback lets us make the game better every day!

We know that a lot of our players are complaining about the long load times. It's a serious technical issue and, unfortunately, we canot fix it in one fell swoop. However, we're doing our best to mitigate this pain. We have been able to greatly increase initial loading time in previous patches. And there is a major improvement in Kingdom management interface we implemented in this patch that will eliminate loading time between different Kingdom UI windows. We keep looking for other things we could do to fix this problem, so stay tuned for further improvements!

Be aware that the update is really huge - you will have to download around 18 Gb! The reason the update is so big is that we are working on the loading time issue, so we had to repack almost all game data.

We would like to thank all of you who are sending us the bug reports with the typos. We are doing our best to correct them as soon as they are discovered. Thanks to you all, the Version 1.2 holds a large number of such fixes!

Finally, let us assure you once more that work on the Pathfinder: Kingmaker will not stop for a single day. Right now, the development team keeps working on the next patch which should fix - as we hope - all known issues that remain on our task list.

Sincerely yours, Owlcats.

Patch Highlights:

System: Loading times have been significantly reduced.
New setting: you can now choose to significantly decrease loading times in kingdom management screens at the cost of higher RAM and VRAM consumption.
Multiple difficulty improvements in Chapters 6 and 7.
New feature: you can now enable camera following. Just double-click a character's portrait or hit F to enable it, and disable it by manually controlling the camera (WASD, arrow keys or pressing on the mouse wheel). Camera-following is also automatically disabled on battle start.
New feature: to save yourself a loading screen, you can now hover your mouse cursor over the table in the throne room, and you'll see an exclamation mark if anything new has happened in kingdom management while you were gone.
The Storyteller now provides the total number of artifact shards needed to assemble an artifact.
Numerous visual and user interface improvements.

Please, be aware of the plot spoilers in the description below (in the Quest, Areas and Kingdom sections)!

Quests

During Nok-Nok's companion quest, the player could gain "Hero" and "Jester" points by maing certain decisions and picking certain dialogue options. Gathering a high enough number of these points was the only way to open the relevant story paths for Nok-Nok during the quest arc's finale (and thus save him at the House of the Edge of Time later on). However, it was unclear how to gain said points, which lead to most players getting stuck with the quest arc's "bad ending" and Nok-Nok dying, even if they completed his quests in an otherwise appropriate manner. Resolution: we are streamlining this mechanic. The players will now always be able to select either the "Hero" or the "Jester" path for Nok-Nok during the quest arc's finale. Which path is open to them depends on what type of points they acquired more of.
A dialogue option discussing Valerie's scar didn't disappear from her dialogue even after completing her quest. Resolution: fixed.
From now on, Irlene will take the Chest of Genuine Gemstones from the player when the player delivers it during her quest.
The dialogue with Jubilost about the "Inconsequential debates" never ended if the quest was failed. Resolution: fixed.
In the "Twice-Born Warlord" chapter, being able to save Nilak (and Dugath, if he survived so far) depended on whether the player is doing the "Flintrock Grassland" area before or after confronting Tristian at the "Abandoned Keep" area. If the players come late to the Flintrock Grassland, they find Nilak (and Dugath) already dead. We removed this dependency from the conditions to Nilak's (and Dugath's) survival to make Amiri's personal quest more consistent.
The "Help Amiri kill another mighty monster" objective could be missing after completion of the "Help Amiri kill Tuskgutter" objective in rare cases. Resolution: fixed.
The "Ancient formula" objective couldn't be completed after "Experiment on a wererat and report to Bokken" objective. Resolution: fixed.
The "City of Hollow Eyes" area will now only be available after receiving the "Find the missing Defaced Sisters" objective of the "Along the Cold Trail" quest.
In some resolutions of Jaethals last personal quest, she could unexpectedly disintegrate, which made it impossible to correctly resolve the Test of Loyalty for Jaethal and Tristian at the House of the Edge of Time. Resolution: the underlying issue has been solved and will not reproduce itself. However, unfortunately, the affected saves cannot be fixed.
A weapon slot in Amiri's interface could remain locked after finishing her companion quests. Resolution: fixed.
Even after Jaethal would come to life, she could regain some of her Undead feats with time. Resolution: fixed.
In some cases during Ekun's "Bury the Past" quest, some of the enemy giants would not join the fight on their own, which made it impossible to talk to Ekun afterwards. Resolution: fixed. Those players who have already been affected by this bug (they see Ekun standing on his knees and cannot talk to him) need to kill the giants located one screen to the right.
In some cases, the game incorrectly interpreted the player's decisions taken after fighting Hargulka and Tartuk at the "Troll Lair" area. Resolution: fixed.
It was possible to accidentally fail Valerie's romance before it even begins. Resolution: fixed.
Executing Edrist Hanvaki could block further playthrough if Auto Kingdom Management was turned on (this would stop game time from moving forward). Resolution: fixed.
Mim Wobblegander no longer gets stuck on her way to Talon Peak. Resolution: fixed. For players with saved games where she is already stuck, she will be waiting for them on the top of the mountain now.
Some players could permanently lose access to Nok-Nok if they have seen a certain statue before they were supposed to during his personal quest. Resolution: fixed.
From now on, the "Saving Grace" quest will start no matter what the status of the "Hour of Rage" quest is.
If Stefano Mosconi is alive during the "War of the River Kings" quest, he will now correctly appear in the Throne Room to "invite" the player to Pitax.
During the Season of Bloom, the peasants that form the angry mob in front of your castle could make mistakes about the fate of a certain Lamashtu's priestess (located at the "Secluded Lodge" area) and some bandits ("Bridge over the Gudrin River"). Resolution: fixed.

Skillchecks for the "Trial of Strength" and the "Trial by Pain" illustrated events could be triggered multiple times at the "Armag's Tomb" area. Resolution: fixed.
The "Wild Energies" debuff could get stuck on characters when leaving the basement of the "House At The Edge Of Time" area using the staircase to the second floor. Resolution: fixed. For affected saves where the party are still in the "House At The Edge Of Time" area, players have to visit the ruined basement part and leave it again to remove the debuff.
There could simultaneously exist two Tartuks at the "Ruined Warehouse" area in some cases. Resolution: fixed.
NPC banters disappeared too fast in Varnhold. Resolution: fixed.
Briar didn't disappear from the Inventory when players gave it to Nyrissa. Resolution: fixed.

"Knight's Resolve" ability of Kinetic Knight archetype now correctly removes all the applicable debuffs.

From now on, if during Jubilost's "Door to Nowhere" quest the player chooses to grant immortality to a random gnome (Nyrd), she will appear in Irovetti's Palace regardless of whether the player killed her before or not.

Patch 1.1.0h (16 November 2018)

Dear pathfinders,
We are happy to inform you that Version 1.1 is here and ready to be shared with everyone!
We are eternally grateful for your patience. The bugs and other technical issues you've encountered can not be tolerated, since they ruin immersion and spoil the fun of playing the game. We apologize for any frustration they could have caused you, and we'd like to once more reassure you of our commitment to fix all the remaining problems. We hope you feel the same way we do - we were inspired by true pillars of the CRPG genre, and we believe that with hard work and dedication, this game can become worthy of their lineage.
We would also like to express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who took part in the Beta test for this version. Your feedback is truly invaluable to us! More then 60 unique issues were fixed thanks to your reports since the beginning of the Beta. And we've also out around 200 other unique suggestions and issues on our task list for the next patch (unfortunately, we can't fix everything in a glimpse, so we prioritize and address major issues first). We'd like to highlight that we carefully read through bug reports threads on GOG forum, as well as the official forum at owlcatgames.com and the fan-run Discord group, in order to record all the issues described there. We can't answer all the messages personally - sorry for that! - but, just to be clear, we ensure you we care about everything you post, and eventually we will address all reports.
To make bug reporting easier, we've decided to keep the internal bug report form in the release version. There won't be a "Bug Report" button as in Beta, so as not to clutter the interface, but on pressing F11 you will be able to send us your thoughts together with all the required information (screenshot, save file and logs collected automatically).
As soon as Version 1.1 goes live, we'll continue working on Release 1.2, which we expect to deliver around Christmas. Meanwhile, we will keep addressing newly-found critical issues in hotfixes and other updates. Stay tuned - there will be more news about upcoming updates pretty soon!
Sincerely,
Owlcats.

Update Hotfix 1.0.14 (29 October 2018)

Dear pathfinders,

Starting from this hotfix, we are changing our development approach. We have got more than one thousand bugs exterminated by now in the 1.1 version of the game. All of those are waiting to be checked and released. To release the 1.1 version we have to refocus the team effort from making frequent hotfixes to working on this big patch. It would take a whole week at minimum to test every aspect of our complex game. That means we need to reduce the frequency of hotfixes and the amount of fixes they consist of during the next 1-2 weeks (although we will definitely attempt to address the most critical issues whether they arise).

Quests

"The First Crown" quest couldn't be completed if players didn't talk to Salim Ghadafar before all crown parts would be found. Resolution: fixed.
"One Thousand and One Questionable Stories" could start earlier than intended. Resolution: fixed.
There was (one more) problem with Tristian romance not progressing after the dialog with him in the Abandoned Keep area. Resolution: fixed. Affected players should load the save file prior to this dialog and get a special romance option in it ("Let me take you home.")

Areas

The game could get stuck when leaving the throne room after completing the kingdom event regarding Annamede Belavarah performance at the Capital Square. Resolution: fixed.

For effected saves where party are still at the "House At The Edge Of Time" area, players have to visit the ruined basement part and leave it again to remove the debuff.
The Defaced Sister at "Barbarian Camp" area can now count to three and provide a correct line depending on how many of her sisters the player has saved / killed.
Vendors are added to the "Pitax Town" area after conquering the city.
After leaving the councilor post Jhod Kavken could disappear from the Capital Square forever. Resolution: fixed.
Bokken didn't trade with the players during the "An Ancient Formula" quest. Resolution: fixed.

Kingdom

Events for Divine VIII and IX Rank ups as well as Arcane VII and Arcane IX could get stuck in some cases. Resolution: fixed. Projects for respective rank ups are given as intended.
Events for Community IX and X Rank ups could get stuck. Resolution: fixed. Projects for respective rank ups are given as intended.

Resolution: Sorcerers can now select the school properly. The game will try to select the favored school for sorcerers that are already past level 15 (the selection is based on the other school related feats and the spell selection of a sorcerer, favoring schools with spell focuses and higher level selected spells).
Weapon enhancing abilities of Magus, Paladin and ranger archetypes Stormwalker and Flamewarden did not affect unarmed attacks. Resolution: While the rules were ambiguous, we decided that there is no need to limit player selection in this case and made them affect unarmed attacks as well as weapons.
Alchemist counted as a divine class for the requirements of Mystic Theurge. Resolution: fixed.
The caster level check was incorrect for "Bloodbird" removal (37 instead of 26). Resolution: fixed.
"Overwhelming Presence" worked incorrectly. Resolution: fixed.
Whenever any character had two identical metamagic rods equipped on his belt the charges were spending on both. Resolution: fixed.

Chinese localization bugs in Recipes are fixed.

Miscellaneous

Loading an autosave made while creating a mercenary could break the game. Resolution: the game doesn't make autosaves in this case any longer. Affected saves should be also corrected.
There could be issues with cloaks physics simulations on some computers. "Clothdisabled" command line switch was added to help with related game crashes.

Some of the players encountered a bug, which made their alchemist characters to lose the Bomb ability. We are going to fix this issue in the nearest hotfix (1.0.13). Update: we've just found the nature of issue, which leads to alchemists losing bombs.

New pack of typos and localization fixes. Missing CN characters (踝豹鹤) are added.

This hotfix happens to be a big one – more like a patch, in fact. A big and important feature comes live in this version: from now on, you can choose between different Kingdom region upgrades - which become available together with the new state of your capital, the city outfit.

Finally, there is one more thing we at Owlcat wanted to talk to you about.

Unfortunately, there is a downside to the speed with which we solve newly-found issues - to be completely honest, it doesn’t leave us enough time to test all of the game thoroughly after each fix. It takes a whole week at minimum to test every aspect of our complex game, so delivering 2-3 hotfixes each week leaves our team only enough time to check fixes locally. Still, we know this is no excuse for issues that persist in the game, as well as those that are added with some of the fixes. Every bug report we receive literally tears us apart with the feeling of guilt for not finding and solving the issue before the game went live. As such, we want to be open with all you Pathfinders, so that you understand our philosophy and our current pipeline. Right now we feel it is more important to keep fixing critical issues as quickly as possible, rather than to stop releasing hotfixes for about 2 weeks and focus on a big patch.

Once we are sure all major problems have been addressed, we will get back to a more stable, "patch-oriented" development approach.

Thank you for your patience and your support! That is what keeps us alive and kicking.

Update 1.0.8 (11 October 2018)

Hello everyone!

Please, be aware that there are plot spoilers in the descriptions below (in the Quest, Areas and Kingdom sections)!

System

Some players complained that video cards might be running out of memory. Resolution: a couple of video memory leaks are fixed.

We have noticed there were a lot of questions and misunderstanding surrounding our game’s crafting feature, the artisans, so we’ve decided to clear things up a little bit. As a kingdom’s artisans become better at their craft, they can reach ever higher degrees of mastery, mechanically represented by different tiers. The quality of gifts they present to the player depends on their tier, with their finest work – the masterpiece – serving as the reward for reaching the artisan’s highest tier. To increase an artisan’s tier, you need to complete their respective quests, but that is not the only requirement. You also need to improve your newborn country, so that the artisans have access to better tools and materials – that is, you need to rank up the different kingdom stats associated with the artisan. As already mentioned, once an artisan’s mastery reaches the highest tier, they will present you with an item of great power – the masterpiece. At the moment, some players may experience an issue where an artisan tells the player they’ve started work on a masterpiece even though not all the necessary requirements have been met. This will be fixed in one of the nearest updates. Also, we are currently working to make the process of improving an artisan’s tier more obvious and reactive.

PS. IMPORTANT NOTE: For anyone having troubles with Linzi disappearing from the party - you can fix that by opening the party manager tool anywhere in the game, for example on the global map or when leaving your capital.

Update 1.0.7 (09 October 2018)

Hello everyone!

Please, be aware that there are plot spoilers in the descriptions below (in the Quest, Areas and Kingdom sections)!

Quests

Kingdom

It was unclear and confusing that after defeating the main threat of the chapter, all of the kingdom events associated with that threat remained active. Resolution: after defeating the main threat of the chapter, all of the kingdom events associated with that threat are removed from the barony. In case there are too many of such events, the kingdom is considered damaged and its development is slowed down. This state can be removed with special new barony project.
It was not always clear that some events can destroy the kingdom if not addressed. Resolution: a more detailed description added for the events that damage the kingdom and projects that remove these events.

Classes

Valerie's quest ability "Valorous" provided Strength and Constitution bonuses instead of Strength and Charisma. Resolution: "Valorous" ability provides Strength and Charisma, as per description.

Enemy Difficulty settings affected saving throws twice - the first time by increasing the enemy ability scores and the second time with a specific bonus to saving throws. Such implementation forced players to avoid spells with saving throws on the higher difficulties. Resolution: Saving throws are now affected by the Enemy Difficulty settings only once by increasing of base ability scores.

Miscellaneous

New pack of localization fixes.

System

Some players have persistent issues loading game saves that we were unable to reproduce so far. After analyzing possible threats that may cause this issue we implemented improvements that hopefully would fix the problem.
Some players complained about being thrown out of the game and to the Main Menu while entering the Throne Room (including the exit while trying to rest at the capital). Resolution: fixed.

Update 1.0.6 hotfix (08 October 2018)

As you know, the game's save files were affected by the stat stacking issue from 1.0.6. This bug proved to be a tricky one. We fixed the nature of the issue yesterday. The second part of the fix that we are just about to release will restore the affected save files to normal. Please, keep in mind that the first loading of your save file could take longer than usual (from 3 to 7 minutes, as our tests show), as the game will convert it to fix the stacked bonuses problem.

Update 1.0.6 (05 October 2018)

Hello everyone!

The weekend is coming, and the team is doing its best to solve some more issues before our dear pathfinders will have well-deserved opportunity to relax and play after another long workweek. It happens we have a chance to publish one more hotfix today.

Such exotic weapons as the Gnome Hooked Hammer, Orc Double Axe ? Sling Staff were not counted as special weapon for gnomes, half-orcs and halflings accordingly. Resolution: fixed.

User Interfaces

There were issues with "Combat text", "Party information in combat", "Enemy information in combat" (so called Overtips settings) and "Dialogue" settings : 1) players did not understand that these settings are stored within the save file; 2) the value of these settings could be changed by switching "Immersion Mode".

However, you will get several warnings before that happens.
The artisan Bokken would come every time you get to the Throne Room with the same dialogue. Resolution: fixed.
Different cutscenes would sometimes start at the same time at Throne Room. Resolution: fixed for all new save files. Be aware that the current saves may still suffer from this issue, unfortunately.

Update 1.0.5 (05 October 2018)

Dear Pathfinders,

After considering the upcoming feedback we decided that it will be better to focus on releasing hotfixes with the best possible frequency rather then spending time on testing the next big version. The way we see it now we will keep preparing hotfixes during the next 1-2 weeks. The so called "big patch" with several hundreds improvements and minor fixes will be released after October, 22nd.

Please be aware that there are story spoilers in the descriptions below (at Quest, Areas and Kingdom sections).

If the player skips the first quest with Bartholomew and then returns with a whip, the incorrect dialogue is triggered. Resolution: fixed.

Missing description for some abilities in class progression table for example for Sage Sorcerer. Resolution: class progression table was improved.
On of the Chinese character is missing in ZH localization. Resolution: fixed.

Extra Arcane Pool feat does not increase the pool of Eldritch Scions. Resolution: fixed.
Weapon Training bonus isn't shown in the tooltips of attack rolls. Resolution: fixed.
Hideous Laughter requires target intelligence to be higher than 2 for you to be able to cast it.

Resolution: fixed, the Hideous Laughter now takes only the base intelligence of the target into account.
Greater Vital Strike has the same description as normal Vital Strike. Resolution: Greater Vital Strike now has correct description.
Duelist Precise Strike has no description and is not visible in the class progression table and in the character ability list. It also works only for characters with a sneak attack. Resolution: both problems are fixed.

Resolution: Slashing Grace now requires Weapon Focus with a one-handed slashing weapon, Fencing Grace requires Weapon Focus with a one-handed piercing weapon and Point Blank Master requires Weapon Specialization with a ranged weapon.
Freedom of Movement is classified as a Necromancy spell. Resolution: Freedom of - Movement properly counts as an Abjuration spell now.

Misc

System

There are reports of quits to the main menu when changing scenes on rare occasions. Resolution: more logging is added and a temporary workaround is implemented (there should be no quits but area lighting may not work correctly).

Update 1.0.4 (02 October 2018)

Dear Pathfinders, Unfortunately, there is a problem with the Windows version of the hotfix we’ve just uploaded. While the Mac and Linux versions function properly, the Windows build doesn’t have 80% of the fixes we’ve implemented since Monday. For those who want to know the details, the main issue is that at character generation and level-up UI, the list of spells have become invisible. The list is still there, you can still use them and click on them, but you cannot really see them except for the tooltips. This happened due to a bug in our infrastructure, and, while we’ve already tracked it down and dealt with it, it will take several hours until the issue is completely resolved. As we speak, the servers at our studio are compiling the correct version of the hotfix for Windows. Once again, this issue should not concern our Mac and Linux users – as far as we know, all is fine in their versions of the hotfix. We are very sorry for the inconvenience, and we’re doing our best to get it right this time.

Hello everyone!

And for sure we will keep watching the specific cases that could be breaking game experience and will closely examine them.

Update 1.0.3 (29 September 2018)

Hello everyone!

We’ve just started work on a big patch that we expect to be available at the end of the next week. It doesn't mean we will stop releasing hotfixes - we will keep addressing the major issues, for sure – however, new hotfixes may not be available every day. For example, there will be no hotfix tomorrow since we really need to give the dev team a little rest before the next week’s run. We are sorry if your specific issue hasn't been addressed so far - we keep track of every message you posted in the bug section and we’re doing our best to fix known problems asap!

We are working on an issue with Pre-order and Kickstarter in-game bonuses.

We are going to make these rewards available for saves made before Hotfix 1.0.2 with the next hotfix. There will be also fixes for Amiri and Jubilost companion quests.

Also we'd like to ask you for some help! Sometimes it can be hard to understand the exact nature of a reported issue, or even what the issue is at all. We would be very grateful if you could send bug descriptions to technical@owlcatgames.com , putting the issue’s name in the “Subject” field. Please, pay attention that attaching your save file and logs significantly increases speed of bug fixing, as well as attaching screenshots! This especially concerns such issues as crashes, freezes and unclear game mechanics malfunctioning. You can find a detailed instruction on how to get saves files and logs at Owlcats .

Stay tuned for further game and community updates!

Update 1.0.2 (28 September 2018)

Hello everyone!

Thank you very much for your ongoing feedback. It encourages us to work fiercely on polishing the game. We are desperately sorry that we can't fix everything at once. But let us assure you that every comment will be addressed.

New Features

Changes to the difficulty.
We hear a lot of comments about the difficulty of the fights. We are introducing several changes - we introduce changes to the easier difficulty modes to enhance the player experience for those, who selected them. On the Story Mode difficulty, such mechanics as Damage Reduction, Damage Immunity, and Regeneration will be switched off, while on Easy mode their power will be reduced (less reduction or regeneration respectively). We are adding an additional warning to the Hard and Unfair modes to provide better information about upcoming challenges and the general difficulty of the game so that players can make an informed choice. We'd like to stress the Normal mode is a recommended one, especially for the people not familiar with the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game system and for the first time players.

We are also making some changes to the some of the encounters in the prologue and 1st chapter of the game. To make it clear, we are not reducing general difficulty in all settings, we are fixing several places where this difficulty was not intentional. Also, we provide more information on overcoming the challenge in the place where it was:

Scare ability in the final fight in Prologue is changed to the communal Protection from Alignment: Good. There are almost no abilities to counter Scare effect in the prologue party, so this ability tends to make combat too chaotic and unnecessary random on the harder difficulty settings.
The first encounter on the road to the Oleg's Trading Post was never intended to be a great challenge, this area is still part of the tutorial, and difficulty of the fight is taking away from learning about the camp. Wolves were changed to Thylacines, their stats are close, but Thylacines have no trip ability.
Bokken will properly warn the player about the swarms in the cave and provide them with several flask of Alchemist's Fire. In addition, the tutorial about swarms and how to deal with them will be shown when entering the cave.
It should be mentioned that the 1st chapter's story is branching into the two different paths, making some of the encounters harder than desired on the first path selected.
Fangberry quest is very hard on low level. Resolution:
Bokken warns about quest difficulty and gives 6 flasks of Alchemist's Fire.
The special tutorial message is added about dealing with spider swarm.
Bear-like Treant in Temple of the Elk will now have less Damage Reduction.
Bear-like Treant fight difficulty is reduced if the player gets there earlier enough (at low levels and without previously following Tartuccio). The fix won't be applied for games saved within the area.
Some companions joined the party fatigued and damaged in Ancient Tomb and Old Sycamore areas. Resolution: fixed.
Ancient Tomb: persuaded companion now joins the party after a fight with Tartuccio's Mercenaries.
Random encounters with creatures too difficult to the current average party level could be rolled. Resolution: fixed

Quests

There may be issues with Valery romance progressing. Resolution: fixed.
Crash to the main menu when certain romance scenes are activated. Resolution: fixed.

Areas

One of the story development paths causes a wrong Capital state in Chapter 3. Resolution: fixed
50% spellcasting fail chance after entering the castle in Verdant Chambers location. Resolution: fixed.
Сut-scene may freeze at the Capital square at the beginning of the second act. Resolution: fixed.
Sycamore hall is hard to find. Resolution: marker on the local map is added.
Some monsters in random encounters gave an incorrect amount of experience. Resolution: fixed.

Items

Amulet of Mighty Fists now properly gives bonuses to attack rolls.

User Interfaces

There is no way to understand the nature of zero damage. Resolution: Information about immunities and damage reduction is added to the Battle Log (available in tooltips).
Tutorial messages about mechanics of the "damage reduction" were added before combats with the first creatures with damage reduction
Time delay for tooltip appearance after a mouse click was too big. Resolution: reduced.
An issue with male elven hairs and capes visualization while playing Ranger and Rogue classes. Resolution: fixed.
NPC Hassuf has empty lines in vendor list. Resolution: fixed.
Unlocalized loot window title. Resolution: fixed.
An issue with Chinese localization in Quest notification. Resolution: fixed.

Kingdom

An Ancient Formula quest may be reported as completed before actually completing it. Resolution: fixed.

Classes

Controlled Fireball damages allies. Resolution: fixed.
Wizard familiar bond list has Hunter's Bond available for selection. Resolution: fixed.
Misc
Missing or wrong German, French and Chinese localization. Resolution: the next batch of issues is fixed.
No text on computers with Spanish and Italian system locale. Resolution: fixed.
An issue with the backer items description in Credits. Resolution: fixed.
Several achievements were unlocking incorrectly. Resolution: fixed.

System

Loading may cause an issue with previously saved file. Resolution: fixed.
Graphics settings auto-detection may detects higher configuration on Linux. Resolution: fixed.
Crash while saving with specific path or locale. Resolution: fixed.

Another issue we hear a lot about - the problem with the custom companions - and some other stuff as well will be addressed in the next Hotfix.

Stay tuned for further game and community updates!
