Image attachment says 2mb max but the true limit is only 500kb it seems.
One more Question. Did you play till 5 with a crossbow?

I have one last question regarding mechanics.
When playing Bard Val or Harrim, how do I work around the Arcane Failure Chance?
I know his cleric spells are good to go but his sorc spells failed on me.

You don't really work around it. At least till you get heart of valor. You just take off the armor and use whatever you care to cast out of combat.

*Doesn't matter much which infusion we take here. Dazzling that works once a blue moon or d6 DoT that doesn't really matter.
**Hare would be a valid alternative, but initiative doesn’t really matter for this one. If we get focused we will die flat-footed or not.
***Or water phys blast. Pick cloud at 20.
Gear: +Stat belts and hats. The rest hardly matters. Some Persuasion and/or CMD bonuses would be welcome.
Very abusive build. Deals tons of damage and controls everything from level 3 pretty much. Don’t be shy to use dazzling manually for control. That dreadful might not pop soon enough, but it’s there and will keep everything reasonably terrified of your existence. Primarily an unfair build where you can’t afford to wait for good things and AC doesn’t matter as much - you either have tons of it or none.
Use Gather Power to reduce the burn. Especially low one is a godsend(it’s not liek we plan to move much anyways)
That’s about it. Very simple and abusive build fit for unfair. No fun allowed. Thought I need to represent this one as the other kineticist is designed more for comfortable late-game play on hard than anything.

Posting here since it's related to your Varnhold Guide.
I'm setting up my party right now and I can't pick dodge on Merc 2 because it requires Dex 13.
