I have a couple of questions about the rework.

First, will assassinate require melee weapons only, or will we be able to use ranged weapons for it.

Secondly, will assassin still have his sneak attack progression since it wasn't mentioned in rework.

Thirdly, will Greybor the fabled can't take assassin levels assassin be able to take it now, or is he still left in the tavern alone.

  1. Yes, melee only.
  2. Progression stays the same.
  3. Yes, the prestige class is available for true neutrals now.

It sounds so freaking cool!

Do you know how much of a delay (if there's some) there is between pc release and console release?

Unless some unexpected issues arise, there should be no delay.

Thanks for the clarification! I'm dying to see the new stuff you guys have added. If the datamines are anywhere near close to true, well I'm sure it'll be a happy holiday season

Oh they are pretty close. Some stuff may be changed, removed or updated, but the overall picture is similar.

I'm glad to hear the rework and Mythic feats will be free! Does that mean the Archetypes, Spells, and any non-mythic feats added will require the DLC? I'll be buying it regardless but I'm sure many are curious.

Of course, the new archetypes are a part of DLC content along with everything that they include.

Thanks for much for the communication. What will change in the base game from this DLC? New archetypes I’ve read, correct?

New archetypes and spells for them, plus a new significantly sized quest and dungeon for the commander in Act V. At the same time we're releasing a big free patch together with the DLC, with a pack of new mythic feats (armor mythic feat among them, and not one but a whole array of different ones for different types of armor and shields), and some gorgeous new VFX for some of the spells that previously used placeholders or lacked them alltogether. For example, Blood kineticist now actually throws around blood.

Is there any possibility for playable Androids in this DLC or in the last one? like how Tieflings were added in Kingmaker's DLC?

Not in the plans right now, unfortunately.

Yes, DLC 5 is set to add 15 more archetypes to the main game along with new spells and feats. The 2.2 patch will also include Mythic Feats and the rework to Assassin for everyone, even if you didn't get the DLC.

For the Mythic options, I know they planned on making Mythic Armor feats at least. No clue on anything else that's dropping. If you search the subreddit you can find a couple confirmed archetypes and a few speculations.

Edit: Added distinction about the Patch and the DLC

Note that the new mythic feats and the assassin rework aren't a part of the DLC - they are a part of free 2.2 patch that will come simultaneously with the DLC.

That adds quite a bit more interest in Through the Ashes. Not being able to play with the mythic builds has kept me from playing it thus far, despite having purchased it.

Will Penta be available for the parts of Through the Ashes that are already out, or does she show up for the first time in the new material?

New material, of course. She joins you in the new part of the story.

I hope they'll be a playable race (and a companion) in the next game... right guys?

Who knows! I, for once, would be excited to see it as a race too. But I understand it's a big investment.

Oh man…thanks for letting us know. But you know it’s been more than 1 year (since release) that we are talking about the blurry texture issue, right? I think it’s time to have a date for the definitive solution. Or just release an statement saying you won’t be solving it.

The port is a rather complicated task. I know it's annoying it takes so long, but there isn't much that can be done here :( Team's working as fast as they can. Judging by the progress, we're looking at 2024. I'm sorry.

Will consoles receive the same update to assassin's in November alongside steam?

Yup!

Wait, is Kingsmaker still being updated on consoles?

Kingmaker will not receive any further updates at all, PC or console. Studio no longer owns the rights for the game for a few years now. We've left our parent company back in 2019 and they remained with it.
