I admit I have very little idea of what I’m doing with Pathfinder builds, but also no interest in just copying a recommended build from the internet or prioritising min-maxing over roleplay. Which is probably a combination of ignorance, hubris and skewed priorities that will land me in trouble in due course!
But I’ve created my kitsune nine tailed heir sorceror/rogue who I’m planning to make an arcane trickster later. I like sneaky witch thieves. Let’s see if it works! I don’t know about paths yet, but I’ll let you know .
I think that's the right way to play - I could never have fun playing a character crafted by anyone else. If I can recommend a mod - get bubbles buff bot. Success in the game comes down to how well you pre buff and the mod automates the process and eliminates what otherwise becomes a repetitive exercise.
Owlcat would do well to learn from Larian in this instance - that mod and few others should be made into "gift bags" and given official support.
