Advice


I am making a Mesmerist Kitsune with the Realistic Likeness feat that is mostly a caster. What spells are must have's for all the 1-6 spell levels?

While it may be tempting to focus entirely on enchantments, take a moment to pick up grease so you have something to contribute against enemies with good will, magic immunity (grease is SR: no), or other tricks that might shutdown your enchantments.

I learned this the hard way, stupid mask golem.


What can I do to make my enchantments work? I plan on having some of my spells be enchantments. I know that I might want possession spells and some buffing spells. Should I take the color spray spell and change it later?

For Color Spray - yes, probably. Put it this way - many, many Sorcerers do this because it works. It works, and it is one of very few early offensive spells.

The only problem is that it's still mind-affecting, so won't really help when your enchantments won't work.

Grease is good as Aretuma says. Grease will work on anything when your mind stuff fails. Good for several levels too.

If you feel that is too practical, also get Unnatural Lust, one of the funniest effects in the game and you can get it at a lower level than anyone else.

There are metamagic feats that allow you to bypass certain immunities. One such feat was Threnodic Spell.

There's also Coaxing Spell, which works on oozes and vermin, and Verdant Spell, which affects plant creatures.
