Learn how to survive your first night in the Stolen Lands in Pathfinder: Kingmaker. This guide covers world map travel, setting up camp, hunting, camouflage, cooking, and special abilities.
Walkthrough
- 1On the world map, click the left arrow to proceed towards Oleg Leveton’s Trading Post.
- 2You will encounter three Thylacines. Position your high Armor Class characters to engage while withdrawing vulnerable characters. Focus attacks to defeat them one at a time.
- 3After dispatching the Thylacines, press "R" to bring up the camp outline. Move it to an unobstructed spot (green outline).
- 4Select your party members and click the campfire to move them to camp.
- 5Assign party members to roles: Hunting, Camouflage, and Cooking. Ensure you have enough rations (you start with four, which will be used for this first camp).
- 6Hunting: The assigned hunter makes a [Lore (Nature)] check against the area's DC. Success determines how many rations are returned. Additional characters can be assigned to assist, adding +2 to the skill check.
- 7Camouflage: Make a [Stealth] check against the area's DC. Failure increases the chance of being attacked while resting.
- 8Cooking: Make a [Knowledge (World)] check against the meal's DC (default Hearty Meal is 20). Different meals offer different buffs.
- 9Watch Shifts: Assign characters to Watch shifts to add their Perception scores to oppose enemy Stealth checks if an ambush occurs.
- 10Special Abilities: Characters can use special abilities (e.g., Jaethal summons undead, Amiri buffs her weapons, Linzi buffs camping skill checks) instead of undertaking other tasks.
Tips
- Save and load frequently to achieve desired outcomes during camping.
- Assigning a second character to a task adds +2 to the skill check.
- If a character's Perception modifier is the highest, they add their full Perception score to Watch shifts; otherwise, they add +2.
- If you are confident in the camouflage check, you may skip Watch shifts.
- You cannot assign a character to use a special ability and another task simultaneously if they need rest.
- New meal recipes can be learned by finding or buying them.
