Well then winners,,, Saito Hikari and Terminator 2020 and my brother who find hardest challenge Cataclysm in Solasta as good challenge and know what tactics and spells to use and how to create excellent characters. Well and then some others who struggle on normal challenge level in Solasta. Yes I do hope Solasta will get another expansion in addition to Lost Valley. I am sure BG 3 will include rolling attributes and also have more then one challenge difficulty at full release.
At the end of day it does not matter. Play at what challenge level you want and enjoy games.
To add to what @Saito says, another problem is that the Solasta OC is balanced for what was available in the game at the time it was released. Now the game has gone through several DLCs, and even if you don't use those DLCs a lot of what was in the DLCs were also added into the base game. So the base game is no longer balanced because of items and abilities that are now in the game that were not there when the base game was released.
I hear you but I played it 2 years ago solo play and felt normal challenge level or even Authentic is way to easy. From what I heard game is now so that classes Barbarian, Druid and Ranger are better in expansion pack Lost Valley the before. Which is pefectly fine Battle Cleric is still powerful, but if someone wants to replace Cleric with a Druid I guess they are different but roughly same level at least if you take best Druid subclass.
Now I am not going into an argument which is better Cleric or Druid even in real Dnd 5. Well and as for Barbarian vs Paladin eh I think they are both good. Barbarian more independent but Paladin gets it aura at level 6 regardless of what Oath thus benefiting themselves and all allies within 10 feet radius. Paladin gets more specialized damage vs Fiends and Undeads with smites but less good when fighting normal example humans.
Well and in Lost Valley there are less amount of magical melee weapons which makes casters more interesting. Personally I think this approach is wrong melee classes should get access to magical weapons they do not need to be artifacts, but the basic magical stuff.
In the video @Saito gave great damage with long distance bow.
Patches has come and balanced well if that is so why do not all those players that struggled with normal challenge replay it with Cataclysm. Well and I do roll my characters I am sorry people are not equal in stats attributes even in real life any sport event in real life can prove that statement.
