Stabbing demon lords at 20th level this time?


Prerelease Discussion


My question is: will a 20th level character party be sufficient to defeat all possible enemies in the game universe? As opposed to PF1 where a 20th level party couldn’t take out the demigod-level monsters ala Cthulhu/Pazuzu. I never understood that design decision- it made it necessary for a mythic ruleset to exist in order to fully tell that sort of story. “PCs shouldnt be epic out of the box!” Why?? And that aforementioned mythic ruleset was not forthcoming for many -years-. I can’t imagine that model going any differently this time around.

I think it would be great if 20th level were the limits of power and there was hence no need for any mythic ruleset. This would make the game self-contained out of the gate and that’s no small thing.

Id rather stab Nocticula in 2019, not 2026.

Thoughts?

It’s just that demon lord goes well with fava beans and a nice chianti. Nothing personal!
