Pathfinder: WotR - Ranking 199 Classes Part 30: Winter Witch

greetings everyone hope all of you are having an absolutely fantastic day we are back again with more Pathfinder wrath to the righteous well well looks like we are finally here the very last class and a very long list this video officially ends my series ranking all 199 classes in the game I deeply appreciate everyone who has helped to make this series and my channel so successful we are at 11 000 subscribers now and still growing due to your continued engagement and support of my content thank you so much this has been an absolute blast I will do one final video going over the full list but it's going to take quite a while for that to come out I need to comb through each previous video read the feedback that was provided and determine what Corrections a call out should be made in the final list if possible I'll try to hand that out before the new year but more than likely it'll be sometime in January I appreciate your patience before we get into the ranking let me remind you during this overview if I reference mechanics from a base class that you're unfamiliar with there's a link in the description to my 25 Base Class mechanics video that will provide more information alright one more time let's get back into Prestige classes ending with white witch to get this class you need a ranking of five in knowledge Arcana and you must be a shaman or witch who has the frost Spirit or winter Patron respectively you also must be able to cast third level Divine or Arcane spells the earliest you can get this class is level six at level one you get the winter witch spell book which allows you to continue spell progression and whatever with your Shaman class you have chosen at level 2 and every two levels thereafter you will gain a new hacks based on which main class you have chosen considering the classes you must use the multi-class into winter which this mechanic is necessary you also get cold specialization which increases the saving throw DC of all spells with the cold descriptor by up to three while applying a penalty of the same amount to any fire spells you might use obviously if you want to specialize in only cold spells this is a fantastic option most of the cold spells use DC's to limit effects so that also makes this bonus really useful at level 1 you also get Frost power which makes Winter witch levels stack with the spirit Patron and hexes that witches and shamans get so basically you lose nothing if you multi-class into this with a base class which and Base Class shamans only lose whatever rankings were left in wandering hacks really cool stuff that makes this an even easier decision at level 3 you get freezing cold which increases the cast level of your spells with the cold description up to plus two again this is obviously useful to have for the play style finally at level eight you get unearthly cold which causes half of the damage your spells do to bypass enemy resistances and immunities this is irrelevant because if you are cold Mage by character level 16 you must have certainly taken ascendant element cold to ensure all of your cold damage bypasses those enemy defenses quick no before I give you my ranking of white witch if you enjoyed this video I would really appreciate you subscribing and hitting the like button this information tells me which content the community is enjoying and helps my videos spread to more people I really appreciate all of the support overall I give this class A B plus winner witch has a pretty awesome thematic pool and it does provide some nice Buffs to make the play style more viable unfortunately there are two issues holding this class back first fires by far the best element to focus on in Wrath of the righteous there are multiple items that interact with fire and will increase this damage whereas I don't think there are any specifically for cold also don't forget that this class will damage your ability to use fire spells on top of this in my opinion most of the cold spells are mediocre even with the bonuses this class provides when I say that I mean it's mediocre regardless of whether your focus is damage or crowd control none of them really blow you away except for Icy prison mass and that is only available if you choose a shaman and it's only available at spell level nine making the viability of this class even more narrow the idea of playing as an ice queen in this game is super cool no pun intended but unfortunately there's not enough in the game to really support that play style that ladies and gentlemen wraps up my series ranking all 199 classes and Pathfinder wrath to the righteous I look forward to providing you with a final full list sometime in the near future hope all of you enjoyed this video if you did please leave me a like share this content and subscribe to the channel if you haven't already I I will see you all in the next video take care
