GD has never had a successful general. The only time active threads are routinely created is around a new expansion lol

The "cannot run on Steam" problem seems to be an error on their end where Crate fucked with the steam api dll file. I hope they fix it soon.

Actually, since I've done this run before, x2 damage done felt somewhat bad on pets, because they actually started dying. Although it was before phys damage rework so it will probably actually be smooth now.
Also, x5 life sounds horrible but actually, it was surprisingly fine. Well, outside of like fifteen ultimate boss encounters, which you can easily guess (mostly due to x2 damage).
>>744082123
I am strongly considering warlord (or warder, as current better version of that) for this run because that anon is right and pets are kind of retarded and sort of defeat the purpose. But at the same time this DLC (and patches before that) added so much cool stuff to pets that I am uncertain. And full-contact character on x2 damage ultimate bosses is also kinda scary considering I have no idea what did they do for HoA uberbosses.
>>744082074
I also forgot to mention 2/3 exp cut because I am retarded and forgot I did that.

One day a lot of evil spirits from another dimension is unleashed upon the world. This is called the Grim Dawn. These spirit are called the Aetherials/Makers and they were servant to the gods, bodiless ghosts who just want some comfy body to snatch.
So you get possessed by one of these Aetherials and they modify your brain to become a super human, which is why your character can level up and become anything , but before they can fully controll you some people hangs you from a tree until you're cured and now you're just a superhuman that's not possessed.
Along the way to save the world you meet bandits, lots of cockroaches, then a blood cult that worships tentacle monsters, then more Aetherials except they are also tentacle monsters now, then some old god who is just out to burn down a few continents, then some demigod turned tentacle monster.

Aetherials want their planet back so they devised a way to hijack the bodies of magically gifted. They used the bodies to research how to bring more of their kind to the world and sabotage the ruling governments to make the invasion fast and brutal.

Oh and they capture young women to be used in breeding factories where they can produce aetherial offsprings daily.

Winds of Asterkarn is surprisingly comfy for a channeled spell but I wanted to play a crow and crow by itself doesn't have any benefits if you're not using its 2 abilites. Sucks.
>>
>>744082713
Mostly make it so GD isn't just a bumrush cruise to ultimate repgrind into somewhat difficult content.
Playing shit builds purposefully isn't doing it for me, so said approach allows me to still optimize my gameplay even on normal/elite, while keeping game decently challenging.
I was considering more intricate changes like OA/DA, but it requires a lot of testing to avoid unintended outcomes and kinda sours entire experience, turning it into Skyrim situation of "mod for two weeks, play for three days because you are so over it already".
So yeah, it's basically
>putting your nuts in a vice because its fun
>>
>>744083124
don't you get bonuses for being in crow form?
>>
>>744083072
Like half the attacks in the game deal physical damage too, so you need armor even on attacks that feel like elemental (they will roughly do half physical half elemental)
Also Werewolf has an issue because Zerker lacks damage absorption and its only damage reduction is on Onslaught. You really either want a tanky 2nd class or to get proper relic/legendary that soaks damage for you.

Nothing wrong with any of that. It mostly sounds like it would be tedious to me, but a lot of things sound that way and maybe its more fun.
DESU I enjoy levels 1-50 in the game the most because that's when you get 3 skill points//level and its just fun to fuck around and focus on builds. Once you have to start honing your build it loses some of the luster for me.
>>
>>744081928
The source is my asshole but I suspect FoA was made by Crate interns or something. Zantai mentioned that Crate has grown a lot recently thanks to Farthest Frontier being a mega hit for them. My guess is that somewhere between FF starting to rake money and Zantai reopening Grim Dawn for one more expansion again they put new hirees to work on Fangs. A lot of things I've noticed in Fangs feel too inconsistent compared with Grim Dawn, Ashes and FG. To me it just feels like an entirely new team worked on this.

What are these things corruptions of? All the other aetherial corruptions are pretty obviously derived from something. Briarthorn, manticore, trolls, the rest mostly human. There are a couple extra freaky types like Commander Lucius but he was still mutated from human. But we don't see any kind of native Cairn life that is a floaty head with an eyeball. Are they, like, possessed arcanists who have super-mutated where the head popped off?

Yeah conversion work in a way "if it's converted old modifiers do fuckall", compared to PoE's "everythin in conversion chain works", so converting into something you don't scale is a no-no.

GD actually has a bit of an issue with "wizard" for lore reasons.
Fire mage is basically an engineer. Inquisitor is more of a witch hunter style guy. Arcainst has some spellcaster kind of stuff but it honestly has fuckall in common with classic RPG wizards.
I'd pick Demolisher+Inquisitor for pistol guy (it's basically The combo for that) with possible ability to turn into trap stype pyromaniac if guns will feel bad.

>>744088760
The game starts just scaling with you after core campaign so the order doesnt really matter besides that it's pretty handy to grab witches and barrowholm reputations asap from malmouth route since they are generic beast and generic cthon reps.
Barbarians and witch gods feel quite "we are our own little corners" to explore that dont really affect anything else (tho I have heard that to finish FoA you need campaign progress in other dlcs or something)

You'd have to get out of your way to start actually PoE-zooming in this game. Such builds exist but they are kind of strictly inferior to more stable builds.
Two strongest builds (kinda HC and SC both) of last patch were fullmelee thorns builds and summoners, both archetypes aren't exactly a clearspeed gods, although they are strong enough to clear fast.

Wouldn't be surprised if it also does some vitality but I doubt it does any aether or poison. Maybe just overtuned for your level range since balance is mainly focused on endgame.

Unless it has some retarded synergy or math behind that mainhaand/offhand damage, or procs 6 times from shit like phantasmal blades, it looks like an absolute garbage.
Fun conceptually, but 178% at cap+2 is fuckall damage as a bonus.
>>
>>744095228
I'm pretty sure that's irrelevant. I think the weapon damage and the cold damage are added to your auto attacks. The charges give the +105%. If it's multiplicative it could be good but if it's additive it's pretty shit.
>>
>>744095228
It's multiplicative after all other calculations. You're doubling+ your main damage spell.
>>
>>744094924
Anon do me a favor and read the middle upgrade for the pact.
the 10/10 % are 110% for damage and 14% for speed
>>
>>744095461
>>744095461
So the tooltip is "178% mainhand/offhand damage" is related to autos/WPS, and +105% is damage multiplier?
Fn that case, it's actually pretty crazy, especially with something with a burst skill like a nightblade. Can you confirm it actually doubles skin damage on target dummy?
Overall nightblade/berserker sounds insane if this works as you describe.

Someone in one of the threads said it but it really feels like that FoA monsters are designed in mind that you are playing something like forcewave since there are so many gap closing leaps/dashes and very aggressive projectile usage... that would not be a problem except if your build wants to be on the face of the mobs where constant projectile spam that shotguns is getting pretty pretty annoying.
>>
>>744096909
Yes, you take longer to kill monsters but the loot and experience bonus is too low to justify doing it. Coincidentally they did it again with Ascendant. Shit is spongey as hell and the loot drop bonus is too low to want to do it.

genuinely just anything with a cooldown
i will say, doom bolt is great with onslaught, but onslaught+doom bolt has no clear and needs support for that and is already skill point hungry because doom bolt is 40 points into occultist. you'd probably be better off levelling with DEE + cooldown transmute or leap for a long time before swapping

I mean it came out in middle 2000s as the only well selling competitor to bit older D2. Its the ""belowed eurojank that was bit cheaper"" of the genre (ignoring that devs were US too) for its time and it did offer a large variety of builds and had multiple expansions.
I do agree that it has not aged well and its more if you were there you were there kind of game that you play because its nostalgic than its object quality.

I don't know if the DLC changed anything on this front, but the classic 2H class is Warder (Soldier+Shaman).
Typically, you use Savagery as your main attack and supplement it with all the offensive and defensive buffs from both classes. Cadence can work too, but it seems less popular and not as fun as Savagery.
Pic was a fairly regular build with your criteria pre-FoA, from what I understand. Haven't played GD in ages so I can't help you further than that. Gonna need another anon to help you/correct me.

I LIKE exploring the world every time and reading the lore notes.
I can't stomach ARPG gameplay I play grim dawn and diablo 2 for the exploration, character, the little side stories that are so rich in texture.

Raw elemental damage is a combination of fire, cold, and lightning. If something does 9 elemental damage that's 3 fire, 3 cold, 3 lightning.
Elemental dmg % increases also buff every one of those damage types by the same amount. So 20% extra elemental damage also means +20% cold damage, fire damage, and lightning damage.
>>

AFAIK the damage "elemental" is split 33% with fire/cold/lightning, but the % boosts and -% res is 1:1

Onslaught by itself is fine, 170% weapon damage at lvl 16 is on par with Savagery and it is the only way many Zerker/X classes can activate weapn pool skills. It also has built in enemy damage reduction on the modifier, something the rest of zerker kit lacks.

with items. An item can either have a global damage conversion or it can convert the damage of one skill

case in point: https://www.grimtools.com/db/items/14815
>>
>>744115202
Feral Claws always hits twice, regardless of how many weapons you equip and it has same attack speed regardless of whether you use a big or small weapon. This means it's by default very biased toward 2handers. I can understand the reason why they'd add the 2nd hit penalty.
It's kinda like Blade Arc on Soldier, which they "fix" by adding a trillion items that benefit one handed Blade Arc.
