The latest DLC adds a new companion and a new class
I confess, I have a soft spot for RPGs and Pathfinder, along with Baldur’s Gate and Icewind Dale, are among my favorite series. However, unlike the much older cRPG franchises, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is a huge game that requires hundreds of hours to discover everything it has to offer.
Not to mention that due to the replayability factor, since you can play with dozens of classes, the time a fan of the genre can spend in Wrath of the Righteous can become worrisome if they want to play other games too. If that wasn’t enough, developer Owlcat Games continues to add new content in the form of DLC.
We already got a Season Pass with three DLC included, all bringing new campaign and a roguelike mode that’s partially integrated into the main campaign. Season Pass 2 has been recently announced and the first DLC that’s part of it is called The Last Sarkorians.
It’s the first DLC that actually adds story bits to the main campaign and sheds some light on the country where it all started, Sarkoris. The so-called Worldwound appeared in Sarkoris for the first time, basically destroying the country and replacing it with a demon infested wasteland.
Coming from Sarkoris, traveling through time almost 100 years, is Ulbrig Olesk, one of the Sarkorians tribal chiefs who lived in the region before the Worldwound took over. The new companion has been deeply integrated into the main campaign and can be recruited in different acts, although I strongly suggest those who want to play with him in the party to start a new playthrough.
Ulbrig can be found in the Blackwing Library, the location of a pretty important quest at the beginning of the game. The shifter has been turned into stone by unknown forces and for some reason wakes up exactly when you visit the library. He won’t join you immediately, but you’ll get a glimpse of his mighty griffon form before he disappears.
