Apoclypton set is super fun, though I'm pretty sure I built it wrong.
I'm reaching the point where I'll trade sexual favours for celestial essences>>745188703he says without posting grimtools
>>745188691Bannerlord moment
>>745188703>playing a onslaught bwc Dreadnaught>Apoclypton is there for a wolf grenade build>can use Dreamwalker for a cold builddidn't expect Dreaddy to have this many options
>>745188886I can post grimtools tomorrow I gotta sleep now.
To the anon that wanted to run with a pack of wolves. The manticore eye MI medal turns your guardians of empohiiurotbs dudes into wolves so you have player scaling invulnerable wolf bros. Seems pretty strong so far aswell
>tfw no aetherial gf
>>745190232wish we had more cosmetic shit like this, let me turn my revenant skeles into wolves
Finally got two of the new Shadowheart dagger. Berserker or Occultist for second mastery? Occultist will make you tanky as fuck but looks like zerker has more dmg boostshttps://www.grimtools.com/db/items/15958
>>745190703is it ultimate only
>>745190703Always go for the damage option
>>745190754Yep one per character as well
I look a lot cooler now and have more buttons
>>745190565I need the medal but kinda want my hammer bros back, wish I could disable it
What's the best EoR build? The urge to mindlessly spin is rising.
>>745187716Temu Diablo
A haiku>tanking a boss, chill>the humble meteorite>you have died, one shotInspire by my just now fight about alexsander nemesis
>>745192448The default lightning EoR set (Cyclone) is good but I think chaos cyclone scythe paired with doom bolt is better now with onslaught stackshttps://www.grimtools.com/db/items/17005https://www.grimtools.com/db/items/13476Fill the rest of the slots with chaos fighting items like Rah'zin or Harbinger
Has anyone ever tried a Vitality Werewolf Primalist? With two of these weapons: https://www.grimtools.com/db/items/8396
>>745192542It's a necro item so I don't know why you'd want it on PrimalistThe extra totems are also pointless, their damage are from an aura and don't stack
>>745192528That actually sounds really fun. I just need to put together a devotion tree and see what monster infrequents that are available to make levelling less painful.
Just a friendly reminder that Titan Quest is on sale right now
>>745192845You can't really level as chaos EoR so it's a late game thingMeanwhile you can level as fire with a pair of this https://www.grimtools.com/db/items/12471(EoR doesn't benefit from dual wielding, but the weapon has massive EoR damage bonus)The guaranteed drop is from a boss given by Sagon in Vanguard so you need to join Solael's cult. It can be gotten pretty early on.
>>745192897I'm playing a ternion attack conjurer right now
Got 102 hours played and i feel like I know absolutely nothing about the game.
Can someone post the speed levelling guide?
>>745192468stfu this game is infinitely better than the trash low iq game called d4
>>745193409Just google "grimdawn speed lvling" its the first image in the image tab
How can I optimise my retal Warlord? I desperately need more OA but only have ring and amulet slots left for powders. I keep trying to kill a celestial (Mogdrogen and Ravager) and get my ass whooped. I did kill the dread but I kited him for 15 mins.https://www.grimtools.com/calc/2zbRdpa2
I have zero parts of this set but it seems to be what I should aim for as last upgrade.But what irks me is the 25% conversion to fire for no reason. Otherwise the 5 set bonus just seems insanely good.
>>745193289thats normal. at least its not PoE where you have to get a masters degree to start enjoying the game
>>745194225Im using that for my mage hunter, it feels like a slot machine, sometimes you get reset after reset and delete bosses, then other times you blow your load and run around for a bit then try again.
>>745194131You need physical resist reduction from dagger constellation and some flat RR since you have full physical retal on RF.Put on some weapon/ring augment for OA
>>745194295I can see that being annoying but the 2 charges are consistent.Also yesterday I crafted this which I wish had way more for me and was a shield but the doubling of chards is a really notable damage upgrade. Well worth the 1 extra second cooldown with the cdr it rolls.
That feel when you spam craft a piece of gear and are happy to see Resists.
>>745190703I tried it on dreadnaught, it had potential but it was hard to sustain because you don't have enough points to make your autoattacks decent for leech. I also tried sorcerer with a shard of beronath for some onslaught. That was pretty good. You can pop mirror and shit out your BWCs then dance around while stuff dies. I used hourglass. I didn't try pyromancer but I think it could be good too, I might give it a crack as I have pyromancer sitting around.
>>745192490He also likes to cast that meteorite from half the map away and catch you offside
How the fuck does all the damage conversion work in this game? Let's say Warden's Judgement converts 100% phys pet damage to Aether. Do I get bonuses from increased % phys damage or increased % aether damage or both?
>>745195396Only increased % aether damage
>>745195429(pet damage, obviously)
i cast doombolt
i cast win devil and play while jerking off
Show it to me, that thing, your.. shatter soul(5)!

>>745195724the lgbt filter hurts my eyes, how do people play with it for hours

When people talk about "farming totems" its just going around teleporting to a few rifts that have totems in range and checking the minimap to see if they are up?Can i get a bit of info? tyty
>>745195801>NOOO THE GAYS HAVE CLAIMED RAINBOWS I CAN'T LOOK AT RAINBOWS ANYMORE>NOOO THE TRANNIES HAVE CLAIMED PASTEL COLOR PALETTE AND I CAN'T USE THEM ANYMORE
>>745196363Go to grimtools and look at a few monster totems. Basically, a monster totem spawns in one of the random locations of its group. So if you know all the locations in the group you can always find where it spawns.Example, Necropolis Interior. There's a void totem that spawns in like 3 locations. If you walk toward the dungeon entrance and check the map, you can always find it.Asterkarn mountain has a beast totem nearby like this too
>>745195840Why did you save a mostly text image in jpg then?
I think the cyclone set might just kind of suck. Might just farm up a good Tempestborn Spear for my EoR Archon and figure out what to replace the set pieces with. Cyclone really wants to scale pets pseudo-pets more than it does EoR damage but you can't stack electrocute the way you can stack some other DoTs and there's some silly stuff like EoR having bad one-hand scaling to start and the set wasting skill points on fucking Crushing Verdict.
>>745196550Okay but i assume there is also a "route"? maybe?>port to here open map farm totem or move on>port to here open map farm totem or move on>port to here open map farm totem or move onand so onKeyword "assume"I appreciate the spoonfeeding anon
>game has impossible puzzles
>>745197408i thought that the "keyhole" one was clever, but its probably cause it doesn't translate well in my language so i never heard it beforethe others are popular enough in my language to tease kids so i already knew them
>>745197460Didnt get that one. Got the Fire, Book, Candle one. I guess they have a bunch randomly asked?
>>745192592Only for the global “Piercing to Vitality” conversion while leveling. The Wendigo Totem would be spammable, but you only have one, and you'd be constantly resetting it, which is pointless.
>>745197408did them all on the first try thoughalso for some reason the grimtools DB marks the guy at the end as a super boss? he's nowhere near that strong
>>745197357I dunno if there are any routes people posted on the forums or whatever, but I personally put something together to hit a bunch of easy to reach totems/treasure troves in a fairly short session. I can put together a shitty infographic of it in mspaint if you want that.
What is the best huge flashy cool big damage one shot spell in this game? I just keep making pet builds and it needs to stop.
>>745197713primal strike
>>745197520Was something like>It goes through a house>Never entering>Never leavingOr something like that>>745197710Dont even worry, i just assumed there were maybe some totems/rifts that are considered to be more worth as they would be very close or w/eIm right now farming for alexsander and checking a nearby totem myself
>>745197706I am wondering why the quest keeps resetting. Must be more to it.
>>745197993it's just so you can farm the guy I guess
>>745197408It's so weird that I'm playing GD alongside Baldurs gate 2 and the exact same riddle is in both games
There's no way to reroll completion bonuses is there
Why is Physical resistance so hard to find.
Well this is what i came up with and im heading towards ultimate hc right now.https://www.grimtools.com/calc/NQQRwvENStill no clue about offhands and trinkets but i'll figure that out eventually.
>finally getting 94+ sets>only the shit ones though
>*attack a demigod*
>>745198904keep farming without quitting the session, the game will try not to give you items that already dropped
>>745198953I have noticed there seems to be dupe prevention, nothing else explains all the different recipes I’m getting
>>745198943The only really bad one is original mog, Who the fuck has 80 lightning overcap?
>>745199018I'm 76. Didnt expect him to be 96. Damn.
>>745199001You don't see dupe recipes (but they do drop, that's how you farm them in coop)
>>745192897But will it let me make a mage that doesnt suck? I think NOT!
It's really really hard to not crit this now with my new offhand so blizzard proc is just guaranteed 98% of the time on top of the many more damage it already does now.Went from some big bird berserkers needing 20 seconds to 1 sky shard an any follow up to kill.
>>745188691>AND NOW YOU'LL WITNESS MY TRUE POWER... GRAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHhad you not noticed already that the writing for this game is cheesy as fuck?
>>745195801>colors hurt my eyes????and it's good because it lets you recognize stats at a glance say you wanna check how much pyhs res this has you don't need to scan line by line looking for "physical resistance"you just look at the item and your eyes instantly jump to the distinctive yellow
>>745199862i wish it used different shades for damage and resist
>>745199942yeah it's not perfect i don't find damage and res being the same too bad since damage is at the top of the stat list and res is near the bottommy complaint is how the green and pink are overused
>>745198683Scroll down
>>745200078? I have 5 points left so I will either go Sailor or Berserker, but being restricted to Axes is annoying.
>>745199862>all stats are pink>OA and move speed are the same color>physical res and elemental res are barely a different shade>pierce and bleed are the same color>CHAOS is light pink(lmao)I'm gonna have to agree with that guy. This is an absolute clusterfuck and simply unpleasant to look at.
>>745200272lol ur blind
>>745199862>oa and movement speed are the same color which blends with the background>elem is also yellowish so phys doen't stand out at all>that's on a cherrypicked item without yellow offensive stats or other yellow resists that will worsen the readability even furtherGreat fucking stuff mate. Phys res is always at the top so if you can read better than an average 4yo it won't be a problem to just look at the bottom of the item description.
>looking up rare affixes >other elements have useful stats >cold has... spirit and %physique and DA
>>745199942That would be neat but you generally won't have more than 3 damage types and they're always at the top anyway so it's not like it's a big deal
>>745200325>every stat should have it's own color>but also you can't use different shades anon you're literally asking the impossiblethere aren't 40 completely distinct unique colors
>>745200495You have Corrupted Peaks or Frostblood for your suffixesThere are prefixes with cold and %OA/DA, I don't know what else you'd want
>>745200325You might want to get your eyes checked anon
>Yawn of Asterkarn
>>745200724>Corrupted PeaksDA>Frostblood DAfucking %cunning and %spirit >There are prefixes with cold and %OA/DAneither glacial nor rimefrost give OAthey garbage like fucking slow retaliation instead the only one wit OA is tempest and that wastes it's power budget on FUCKING ENERGY meanwhile look at this shitBOOMOAHEALTHDAMAGEEVERYTHING YOU COULD EVER WANT
>>745200685Sounds like a gaymod problem. Or just stop coloring everything and focus on the stats you want - specifically your damage type and phys res. Leave the rest as is. Boom.>>745200760You should get tested for autism if you require reading aids
THINKING BOUT REROLLAN AGAIN
Imagine having fucked up eyes and brain and lashing out at normal people.
>>745201157>bro just spend hours making a custom mod for every build you play>so you don't waste 2 picoseconds telling apart cold res and cold damage yeah i am not doing that
>>745201181WHAT BUILD
>look up apoclypton builds because I wanna play it >only one build online>it's a fucking zealot that completely ignores the canister bomb Fuck I really wanted to try the set out but now i have to wait until someone makes a build
Shill thread
>>745201589What's so complicated about it, put points into the werewolf and canister bomb line, get some passives and buffs, maybe put something into thermite mine if you have leftoer points
Lost my 100 gal to Beronath despite having no issues at all in many fights previouslyTruly do not understand this game sometimes

>>745202024Reassign your points in a more efficient manner
>>745201987crits or modifiers maybe
>>745202058>still shit The reason I like build guides is because they prove there's a way to make a certain build good Without that guarantee you may end up trying forever to salvage a piece of shit that cannot be salvaged See: DEE

OK so DW cold evoker is kinda ass atleast early game. Guess its more of a wereraven build? Gonna try a DW cold reaver. Really wanna do a fast melee build. Seems more compatible

>>745203147how do i make my skelies guy not die?im in normal and playing cold archers with that one mibut each time i hit hard boss/enemy they just fall over
>>745200272Then change it you whiny fag. You can easily make everything default and only highlight lightning as blue, for example. Would take 30 seconds
>>745203786I'm not using this mod to begin with and am perfectly fine with how the game handles item descriptions. Not sure why some of you are so defensive of this objectively bad mod.
>>745203632They will die until you get all the pet +resist devotions anyway, just resummon them all
>>745203632Take early health constellations if you haven't (Hound, Lion, Crook).For the bigger bonuses, you just have to wait until you level further and get access to more gearing options. As an Occultist hybrid, I have access to Familiars which serve as a pocket healer and that helped their survivability tremendously early on before you meet another spike in endgame bosses and their constant DOTs, where then you really need to start paying attention to their resistances.
>>745204146>it's objectively bad because i don't like it kek
>>745203632What's your second mastery? Shaman has the +health aura and briathorn's phys res, Occultist has blood of dreeg, health buff and raven heal.There's also a MI in Malmouth that makes resummoning much faster
Which faction sells pants with pet bonuses? Getting tired of wearing ones I found at level 30
>>745203632Theres a devotion iirc you can slot on an aoe that basically constantly heals and purges debuffs from your pets. I got like 35k hp skelly knights
>>745203632the fat zombie with fart aura helps skelly survivability because he causes enemy attacks to fumble, but skellies will still never be tanky. You are meant to constantly resummon them
>>745204257Nobody, but you can grind Guardian of Bysmiel for better ones.
How do you ever reasonably get Nemesis status on smaller factions? Even when using bounties leveling, for example, Cronley's Gang is slow as fuck.
>>745204257There is literally only one option for rare pet pants >>745204374
Are autobombers possible in the new dlc? The only clicks I want to be doing is for phat lewtz.
>instakilled by moosilauke's ice meteors >time and dungeon key wastedebin why do i even bother with the dungeons
>>745204374>>745204820Hidden path quest? I forgot about it. Guess it's time to grind
>>745205035NoJust make a Primal Strike build if you want 1 button gameplay
Did some anon post something about chests in roguelike dungeons dropping set pieces for your skills more often now or did i dream it?Was it a mod from the altar?
>>745205585Shit game!
>>745205035pet builds are 0 button play
>>745204428You just gotta bite the bullet and do a few runs on a route with heroes and bosses. For conley you can start outside of the hideout by the other rift, walk north, kill arena dudes, circle around clockwise to the hideout and then clear that.
any non bleed wearwolf zealot builds?
>>745205708Minion builds are big gay, I was thinking more along the lines of wardloop or at least RF from PoE.
>>745205816Yeah, that's what I was afraid of
Demo is the most fun but it's too much of a piano to play, especially factoring in devotion proccers
Randomly went to coven by mistake and just found out there is also a potion cauldron there?Are there more besides that one and the one in Kurn?
>unspec 12 points out of starter skill giving +13% offensive ability>it actually was ok damage and doing more than any other node I could take
>>745201494CONJUROR VITALITY CASTIN
>>745206073There should be one in the Crucible too, but I never bought that DLC.
>>745205613So i did dream it?
>>745202167I have never used DEE in any build so I just tried one with the Rotgheist set. It kills shit in Ascendancy pretty well. Doesn't seem unsalvagable to me.
Time to raise all the skellies
>>745206345That was years back maybe they buffed it IDK but it was ass back then especially the non-CD version
>>745205708Every minion build I've seen calls it piano since you still have to recast pets and debuffs (devo tied to damage skills) regularly
>>745206721Everything in this game is a piano because of devotions
How far into FoA do you have to be to unlock the Dread again? I'm not doing this on my current main on HC. I have this other char that just drops turrets and just runs around in circles that seems like it'd wear it down with 0 risk, but man I can't be fucked to play through FoA again already.
>>745207026You just unlock it by playing on ascendancy which requires a level 100 nigga
Im going to play this againlast time i did a 100% auto atack build with dual guns incq/demowhats a fun ranged skill based build
>commando 2h build has a considerable amount of power coming from the blast shield>but need to balance defenses very carefully because blast shield doesn't have 100% uptime and you need to be able to trigger it but also you should obviously be able to take a few hits outside of its effect>and need to stack as much OA as possible to take advantage of said power to begin withI think I got taken for a ride
>>745207127Wtf, yeah, the orb is already there even without doing anything on ascendant. I could swear the orb wasn't there before I did some FoA stuff on my first char but I'm probably just tripping.
>>745207190I was thinking about that axe.Seems like bait to me with no good gear to really support it.
>>745207286The orb wasn't there from the start, they only added it in some post-release patch
>>745205613>your skillsNo, that part is on you
This nigga just eats me with like no windup animation or anything. Just 100-0s me in one chomp. And he has two forms too. What the fuck.
>>745207337yeah there really isn'tI'm using 3 pieces of the justicar set because the bonuses are serviceable and an MI chest with tons of bonuses for commando but that's about it
>>745205613The Ascendant chests in RL dungeons are supposed to drop stuff for your masteries yeah. I got lucky with my first one but after that I've not really seen it.
Got em. That was annoying.

>just wanted to kill Kymon's Chosen>only find chtuns>Dread up my assAt least it was a nice area to circle and kite in so it was an easy kill.
>>745208292NTA but is this new? I noticed when playing for the first time in like 6 years now that most of my old chars had crazy skill point stacks that capped at 26 now. Was I just retarded all along or was +10 max cap introduced in some recent-ish patch?
>>745208432I think it was always capped at maxlevel+10
>>745208432They probably buffed some old gear and you had more points than you used to
>>745208131Most pets are permanent, they just die a lot until you're at an endgame investment.
bros wtf is with this Arkovian Coliseum? This dude just shits out lvl 30 mobs.Where should I be at level 28? Grinding in the Cronley mine?
I just unlocked the offering/ascendant stuff in the third dlcThank fuck you can affect drops in some way because I'm still wearing level 30 items as level 68 because of shitty combinations of resistances+damage typesIf it's one thing the game does very poorly it's the itemization
That's a pretty good base the dread can drop.
>>745209118Continuing the story. Go into the catacombs.
>>745209118That is an optional side area as you can see by the debuff on the top right while in it.When in doubt just follow the road.
>>745209118Not once have I grinded out levels. Just continue following the main quest and, as long as your build isn't ass, you can just keep on going with few issues.
>>745209118There are a bunch of optional side areas like that which'll kick your face in at lower levels. Even though they're level scaled, coming back later makes them way more manageable.

It might be less optimal than the typical AAR Spellbinder but I’m gonna use Reap Spirit to shit out ghosts with the new item that gives them player scaling while shitting out ghosts from procs and maybe even the skeletons from Revenant if I can fit it.They’re literally baiting me into doing by having both skills on the Clairvoyant set and the shard.
>>745193583>D4diablo 2 is better than Grim Yawn
Doing this on a throwaway char felt kinda no balls in the end.Back when I started HC, it was super stressful because of the prospecting of losing everything. Then you slowly build up a stash of duplicate items, get all the mandates, and the stakes go down. Now I have like 10 chars, and only 2 of those are chars whose deaths I'd really even care about.Still by far the ARPG where I've had the most fun with HC.
>>745211196Gratz anon, I could never.
Phantasmal blade reaver so far https://www.grimtools.com/calc/2BykdMKNThis is definitely beginner viable and it's so free progression wise.
>>745211925Buy an ad.
How exactly does the +flat and +% affect monsters? I decided to go to SR40+ and was struggling much more than I expected and I'm not sure if having 4 of those mods active at the same time or just the SR scaling that's fucking me over.
>>745211954For what? Dev forum comments? Lulz.

>>745214081For me it was because HC removed the Yawn from it. The threat of death adds some tension, but the game is also really consistent. I always see the potential death coming and get to react. Meanwhile I don't even bother trying in PoE because half the time I never even saw the death coming on my SC chars and just went from 100 to 0 in <1 second. Feel like there's way too much shit like "oh yeah never run multiple projectiles map with these mobs in it" behind surviving. I mean I've tried but it's not really fun running normal white maps to be safe. In GD it was fun weighing risks and ultimately doing everything.
>>745211196>mortar commandoDoes Callagadra even do anything in range? In melee she spawns sands and shit but for ranged characters, tornadoes and that's it?
>>745214470That was for the Dread, 'cause I really wanted to fight it in an open area. But I also did Callagadra in this patch to get the helm for my Warder. I used some shield throwing Warlord where I just ran away from her and threw shields at her. And yeah, she didn't do anything. Just needed to not walk through the tornadoes or stand in the sand cone thing.
>>745214406Sorry anon, the best cyclone game happened ages ago. We're all stuck with tiny cyclone now.
>>745214728I wouldn't even be mad but when shit like primal strike and forcewave exist it makes the devs look like incompetent retards. Both of those are far safer, triple the AOE and can be used from offscreen. Meanwhile I'm here spinning with two matchsticks in my hands and risking sunders.
Does the increased chance of [element] dropping at the shrine affect epic/legendaries or just affixes on other items?There's a new ring from the expansion I want but I've only see the low level version of it on another character.
>>745215480I want to say yes but in practice I've not seen better drops. It definitely affects the mods though and I've seen it override innate biases of the MIs.
>>745212787This is my first char ever on this game and i did try to punch above my weight most of the time, started on veteran which probably costed me some deaths here and thereProbably tried ascendant too soon too and died to stuff like dread a couple times just checking it out, or when i finished barrowholm and attacked the ravager, or when i attacked modroghen or when i....Live and learnI couldn't hack it on HC myself, not my cup of tea
>>745215540Yeah after a run of the Lost Oasis it didn't seem to do shit to the purple dropsAnd did Morgoneth always have a fucking -85% total damage debuff on every hit? Christ
>Aggressive mod>Magic tier>Only one version exists>5-7% OAWhat a weird mod.
I've been going all physique but now im missing ~100 spirit for the item i want to wear. Do i just pump into spirit or wait? I have 0 legendaries worth using yet.
>>745218092You can reset attribute points easy so just do whatever you need for gear you wanna use
>burnt out of my SS/Trozan Spellbreaker FuckWhat do I do now? None of the new sets seem very fun/good
>>745214946Man I leveled my last character on primal strike and when I moved to eye of reckoning with a largely prepared set already I still had to pause and wonder if I'd gotten weaker just because of how wimpy it feels. Hard to believe the skill got so many buffs this patch
I've seen one hero since I reached hated with kymons chosen.
>>745218309Hero Siege next week.
>>745218092You can equip something that gives you a spirit bonus and then put it on lol
>>745218671I could never get into hero siege it felt way too MMO-y for me
>>745218671every time i hope that garbage dies and goes back to irrelevancy someone talks about it
>>745218470>buffsAre you talking about the new spears they added? Eye needs more aoe and maybe a movement speed buff.
>>745211181aged like milk. the inventory alone is retarded
>>745218749It plays nothing like any mmo but alright.>>745218840Sorry you hate top fun arpgs.
>>745209159>no physical/traumaget that shit out of here
>>745218470>>745218872Fuck is EoR really that bad?
>>745219117It's fine, I'm playing one with the new lightning spear. It really does suck ass when it comes to range though. But also note that I'm using basically min/maxed items as well. I'd probably get better performance from a different build with the same investment.
>>745219117It's a melee AOE skill with a small radius.
>>745219007>funNothing is fun about that fucking sadistic game balanced around having to play 16h a day AND trading.Took me 200h of total grinding (so more in reality) to get a heroic item that is on a rarer side.I told myself never again and i cheated the hcssf 100 wormhole.Calling this shit fun is like calling sticking a needle up your penis hole fun.
>>745218872They made physical EoR stronger with enemy armour changes, buffed some sets, added a ton of new items including the spears, and EoR directly got a huge buff to its weapon damage and CC reduction built in letting you become literally immune to CC in it on very little investment.>>745219117It's perfectly playable if you like the skill and you'll be able to clear everything with it but it asks for a lot of investment relative to its performance. It hasn't been a "strong skill" for awhile now, I think the devs have overvalued its mobility. There's a ton of unexplored option on it though and like mentioned it received a massive amount of buffs this patch so there's probably a very good EoR build somewhere but I haven't found it. It's not Cyclone or Dunefiend at the very least.
is this game worth pirating?
>>745219461>literally immune to CC with little investmentYou're overhyping it. At 26, you're getting like 20% CC res and Max CC cap, you're still responsible juggling all the others like stun, freeze, slow and petrify.
>>745218749I bought it years and years and years ago when it was a proto-survivorlike arena fighter. I think just at the tale end of my interest it started doing a campaign. I tried it again somewhat more recently after it pivoted to being an ARPG and I just got turned off by the amount of expansions I needed to buy. The artstyle and cheeky/corny voice prompts were fine at $5 but not for fucking $100 (give or take depending on what you don't buy from the bundle).
>>745219778>$10+ for a classI hope I'm not reading that right. They're not fucking Firaxis to be doing that.
>>745219117Its playable but its definitely on the lower end of melee skills. I think every other melee skill in the game has more aoe outside of single target ones. If you ever played POE2, its basically the mace basic attack range but 360 degrees.
>>745219870CDN$ =/= $
>>745219253Looks more like Vampire Survivors famalam
>>745219760It's 25% at rank 26 and affects all CCs with no caveats. A regular melee build is already aiming for the 80% soft cap on relevant CCs so if you're already building normally you're probably going to be stun, freeze and slow immune with no changes to your build. Archon has a lot of incidental stun resist built in so I actually had to find ways to cut stun resists because I was overcapping it passed 100.
>been farming for day for mythical eyes of the primordial storm>havent even found the blueprint>im about to kms and start a new character cause i got almost every other set in the gamewhat is this bullshit
>>745219630Unless you categorically dislike Diablolikes or whatever the fuck you call this genre these days, sure.
>>745220164I've known them as A(ction)RPGS but somehow I've heard people use that term for dark souls and Xenoblade.

https://www.grimtools.com/calc/ZR9RpDrVI could use some help with refining this.
>>745221691aw shit he doin tha Stanky Leg
>>745221691Why not use Unholy Inscription on your gloves instead? Also 58% Aether res
>>745221691Put a component on your hat for startersAnd you need to fix that Aether Res a lot more than you need +180 HP on your pants
>>745222003What the, I made sure my resists were balanced before...>Coven WardOh fuck that's what I get for putting on my augments in witch territory. Gotta redo that then. And Unholy Inscription is a thought. I could use the extra OA to try and get some more crits so I can throw more bombs, but that whole aspect of the Apoclpyton set doesn't seem to be all that. >>745222506See above for aether resistance oversight. And I did forget the helm component. Overall though, even mucking about with suboptimal resistances, the damage on this doesn't feel too good.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_T8TzKjL3WYthis is what onslaught looks like post-nerf
>>745221691put at least 1 point in improved casing you are missing a lot of aoe (and single target due to lack of overlaps) for no real reason) the amatok's pact line is kinda a waste of point redirect most of those to form of the beast bloodborne and maybe the rallying cry line maybe swap out one of the rings since the resist reduction procs don't count get some offensive aguments on your ringschange your chest and boot components that's about all i can think of those gloves and boots are kinda questionable but it might be a while before you can get something better
>>745223485It wasn't much of a nerf really, more of a rebalance, onslaught stacks were moved from items to onslaught itself and endless rage.
>>745224962Yeah my Onslaught build went from 10 to 11 stacks for free and I wasn't using any items for more stacks in the first place.
>>745223908I totally skipped over the AOE increase in Improved Casing, thought that was a pointless skill since I wasn't doing trauma damage. Amatok's pact gives me DA and resistances, and if I take the attack/cast speed boosts out of Bloodfrenzy and put them into Form of the Beast I just raise my max cap, not my actual attack/cast speeds, no? I could use more OA from Rallying Cry though.Why don't the resist reduction abilities from the ring do anything? They have a chance to activate from critical attacks, yes? Or is that one of the things Feral Claws doesn't work with?The gloves I gotta replace, those were made for the previous iteration of the character that was the Cold damage Blackwater Cocktail build but I like the HP boost from them. Boots I forgot about, have to work on a replacement for those too.
>>745225047The voidheart ring should work fine with all your Werewolf shit but I don't know if stacking it twice is doing anything but increasing the chance since it's the same debuff.
>>745225047you want form of the beast for this, it's effectively MORE damage resists you should be solving with gear and you are waaaaay overkill on DA, losing a hundred or two won't hurt your survivability much attack/cast speed is just qol on CD casters and not worth going out of your way for it MIGHT be worth keeping here if you're getting lots of use out of the claw cooldown reduction thing >Why don't the resist reduction abilities from the ring do anything?i meant to say don't stack. even if you have two rings you're only getting -10%
>The Iron maiden runs up and stuns yo>runs up and stuns you>runs up and stuns youWhat a fucked up Nemesis.
>no MP lobby so we can all party and run a key dungeon
>>745225554>if you're getting lots of use out of the claw cooldown reduction thingWell, I don't feel like I am. If anything it feels like it only works on the base charge of Canister Bomb. And considering it's a 30% chance per ~20% of hits it does seem kinda useless.

Why is Necromancer still so terrible?
>0 fan artlmao dead game
implying I will take off my Lokarr's set before level 94
>>745226679The good necromancer builds are so good that it's one of the most dominant masteries in the game on paper so they overlook how bad it is overall with multiple skills that never see play and piss interplay between its skills compared to shaman or occultist that also do the summoning hybrid stuff.

I just thought it was weird that there's this random aetherial giant that you never get to fight, you never get to see fight, randomly killed an NPC you're allegedly supposed to care about (Sahdina), and never gets cleaned out of Devil's Crossing.What the fuck was his problem?

>>745221691is his attack animation really a back handed slap over and over?
The boot slots feels so meh for what you can get on them.
Why did they turn GD into a soulslike?
>>745227837IIRC the devs hated the idea of people facetanking their scary bosses, so they added sundering attacks and a dodge to avoid them as well.

>>745227896>so they added sundering attacks and a dodge to avoid them as well.Did the game have that on launch a decade ago or was it added later?
>>745228064They were both added during v1.3 three years ago.
>>745228064both were added years later
>>745227945He's a monster...
>>745228064It definitely didn't have it on launch and I'm 90% sure it didn't have it in Forgotten Gods initially either.

>>745228173He ducked.
>>745228458To be fair, there are so many on-hit devotions that having an attack replacement and several hit modifiers lets you stack a gorillion different on-hit effects and left click through the game.
>>745228458KEKsounds like pure cinema
Any beneficial bugs or exploits that are known atm? I don't want to play fair, I want to abuse and cheat.
I always avoid Occultist and Arcanist because the moment you pick those classes, youre in piano territory by default
>>745229021No. Just cheat with an external program.
>>745229089Occultist is automatic pianoing but Arcanist isn't. Just make sure your main damage skill is in your other mastery and take Arcanist for the passives and emergency buttons

>>745223908>1 point in improved casing you are missing a lot of aoeWait, does Improved Casing also increase the AOE of the bomblets or just the initial explosion?
>2H ranged weapon with dual wielding melee bonuses????
>>745230529If it has those, you can use those WPS with the two handed weapon. There's also a one handed axe that enables primal strike.
>>745230350>bomblets fucking kekebut yeah it does increase the aoe of the fragments too
>>745229967I love titan quest too but that was just unnecessary busy work in a game all about grinding to grind for more grinding
Giving Anasteria the gift of motherhood so she can understand the joy of humanity even better.
>>745230529There was a one handed gun like that yeah? What was it again? I wanted to build around it
>>745230646oh okayit might be interesting to make a character around but theres no point before 94 Id be able to play it like post 94. grim dawn is weird like that
So how does conversion work if say you had a weapon that converts a Fire skill 100% to say Lightning but you also wear a chest piece that converts Fire to Vitality outright? Does the chest conversion not matter or is it going to steal some points?
idk how to play this gamei just click shit and sometimes become a werewolf
>he reads quest text
>>745231134Everything on the same step grabs a proportional amount e.g. two 100% gear conversions each convert 50%

>>745231281usually it's fairly accurate this is probably the biggest offender
>>745231230Fuck, that really ruins my idea then. The fire part from EoR isn't that big of a deal right? See, I'm using the lightning spear, which changes Fire and Phys to Lightning and I want to use a Bloodsworn Vestment for the Phys Res% and +3 EoR but it converts 30% of Fire to Chaos.
>>745231329>The Taken situation is crazy
>>745228458>they insist that you NEED a default attack replacer and if you don't have one you're sandbaggingIt's equally annoying when you have a friend that insists otherwise while you're just trying to grug
I'm scared to do ascendant with my melee dreadnaught
>>745230725>>bombletsIsn't that the technical term?
>>745231476Wait, I just realised something, the spear itself also has Fire to Lightning conversion already so it's a 160% FtL vs. 30% FtC. Should it should be fine.
>>745231476Almost every build has a loss somewhere, If you haven't put your build in grim tools yet then plug it in and check if the numbers are acceptable.
>>745231329I was trying to visually display my flabbergastation at the bomblet's explosion visual vs. it's damaging field.
>>745231625yeah that's not too bad you'd end up with 84% of your fire converted to lightning
>>745231175The quests and lore make the game good. Otherwise you're just clicking through a bunch of harmless enemies.
>>745231608>it actually is what the FUCK
i think someone asked on their forums why aren't the towns ever overrun by Grim Dawn monsters, so they actually showed an Aetherial giant smashed in to Devil's Crossing and was only stopped by the nice spirit lady NPC going kamikaze to take it down
>>745231804I think -let as a suffix just feels unreal to people now but adding it to words to indicate something smaller has been a long time thing>bomblet>piglet>booklet>eaglet
>>745231858Contextwise, it is funny though since iirc, they immediately thought that the golem was from Malmouth which means it ran all the way up there and down to Devil's Crossing and no one seemed to stop it and it's the only one that got through.
>when the internet slang gets to you so hard a real word becomes a meme
What's the best class combination if i want to use a 2handed gun?
>>745231971iirc they say it came out of the rift like the Taken did but the salt circle didn't stop it
>>745231858Well the wards and salt and shit does protect the towns from the cannon fodder, we're just one of the few badasses that dont give a shit about salt and just go full assault
>>745232039Ah did they mention that? I honestly thought it just completely wandered into DC.
Devil's Crossing is pretty tough all things considered. They established that the town was fighting off aetherial for awhile before the Taken got there and we know that it wasn't just bitch ass loose roaming aetherials either, there was a concerted effort with high ranking aetherial to take it out. There isn't really much explanation of their bad assery unlike most factions either which are distinctly badasses equipped to survive the fall of the world. Bourbon just rustled together a motley crew of survivors and the Taken themself is basically one of them.

>>745232849Feels about the same desu. I've gone Phys, Chaos (with doombolt) and Lightning and Warlord just feels the same.
>do more conley to see the nemesis>spawns with fucking dread>he is doing arcanist shit on me like I am using>heals and goes invis all the timeSomehow the Dread was not the problem.
First time playing the game, should I go for a chaos pet conjurer or a berserker/nightblade werewolf
>>745233198I wouldn't fiddle around with pets on my first run
>neat, new Grim Dawn expansion>ignore all the new masteries and crack open a crisp grenado runYep, it's Grim Dawn time.
>>745233118>try on ultimate to make it quick>a completely different nemesis spawnsI thought there was only one per faction.
>>745233561got updated to 2 per
>>745233561>>745233598except the vigil/kymon, those still have just oneand aetherials/vanguard got combined
>>745233598>>745233679Huh okay.
>>745233679Who the hell maxes those two anyway>>745233561>Nemesis boss with a unique looking axe>Doesn't drop itCool
>>745233679pretty sure they have twocurate ignus, and possible shrekbloodbutts only have one nemesis, maybe they will get another in a patch I think, could be associated with new dungeon
>>745233679Death's Vigil got Shriek and Kymon's got Curate Ignus.
>>745233927>>745233950that's what I said tho... vigil and kymon have just one nemesis
Now THIS a proper res roll on an accessory. 131 and 80 on 2 of my struggle resistances.This could free up so many augment and component slots for me.
>>745234075No no, those are the new ones they just added. They had Zantarin and the Iron Maiden previously.
>>745234112huh, I only got Shriek spawning, never the other one
What archetype would benefit the most from increased devotion points? I'm looking at some of these mods that're available for the game, haven't played in years.
>>745234315All of them. It's hard to say really. I guess Phys and Lightning arguably have two major constellations tied with them and then you have that one at the top which is just a general boost.
>>745227376>>745227454Cold Drain Essence is apparently still retarded, just not face tank the entire game retarded.
>>745234315Elemental damage tends to have very spread out constellations though maybe that's only a consequence of them having so many of them. You always have enough points for what you want if you're going like chaos or vitality.
>>745234381If memory serves, GD didn't really have the usual screen-wide covering lightning skills that many other ARPG games have? Stuff like spark in PoE is my guilty pleasure.
>>7452344413rd strongest SC build pre-expac lolhttps://forums.crateentertainment.com/t/top-20-softcore-builds-end-of-forgotten-gods-edition-with-hc-section-by-rektbyprotoss-1-2-1-6/150895
>>745234516Nothing as quick as spark no, but there are many skills that can hit with a decently large AoE. Winds of Asterkarn from Berserker is probably the biggest.
is shadowheart required to make my kaos bwc onslaught build work
>>745232337>ClonesSeems to be a common theme among Wardens.
>>745234632I swear I saw a boss attack me with a sparklike today around a corner stair.
>>745234632I'll have to look into that, would be cool to play with the new mastery. Paired with arcanist maybe.
>>745234516>>745234632>zaps you>>745234918>sparklikeprobably stun jacks from the demo tree
I feel like I would have gotten addicted to Grim Dawn if I picked up my class better for my first character (saboteur). I don't have the patience to grind up a new one.
>>745235286The two genders of Grim Dawn players are fucks who constantly reroll because they saw a good double rare at 84 and fucks who can't be bothered even when they have a full end game set lined up.How far along is your saboteur there's usually a really easy fix.
>>745235286Just GDStash it to respect masteries.
>>745235404Not far I suppose. I just finished FoA on normalhttps://www.grimtools.com/calc/NnMaJ0GZ
>>745235286quite possibleI endured and even enjoyed the grind because I happened to google "masteries for 2h physical melee build" when I started the game and one of the first results was some redditor suggesting soldier + shamanwhen I first saw a piece of the avenger set dropped I knew I was in for some serious shit
>>745235671>73 without a default attack replacerpetition to qualify anon for sainthood because his patience is celestial
>>745232019primal strike
>>745235671>-18% poison resistance>No proper actives aside from Ulzuin'sDid you seriously just auto attack to that level? That's amazing.
>>745235671Oh, this is an extremely easy fix. Honestly your build is impressively weak and it's actually incredible that you finished FoA on it. You have a lot of freedom on where you want to go from here, if you just want to keep left clicking everything down, you can rearrange your points to keep your general playstyle but spec into Demolitionist's fire strike to replace your auto attack. Otherwise your priority here should be just finding a skill you like. Remember that respecs cost basically nothing.Amarasta's Blade Burst is pretty goated for levelling to start if you don't want to mess around with Demolitionist shit. We can get into specifics if you have any thoughts on what you'd want to do but your whole set up is clearly touch and go so far.
Which for a onslaught/doom bolt mystic? They're pretty close as far as the tool tips go but the tooltips are often not terribly right.
>>745236458I'm stupid and forgot the pic.
>>745236504Left and it's not even close to a competition.
Does it really matter who you pick for a blacksmith in Devil's Crossing? What is the difference between Duncan or Angrim?
>>745236504Just try both on a dummy.
>>745226224Why weren't they in the initial release? It's even on the map kek
>>745235286>picked the 2nd worst class combo in the entire gamebro...
>>745236725what's the first? Defiler?
>wanna make a build around this >remember i have to play demolitionist, the worst class in the game brehs... i hate being forced to use the clunky dogshit mines so fucking much
>>745236920NTA but it's probably Apostate. Even the worst combo was good enough for end game previously but I'm not sure it has any reasonable build for Ascendant, you can definitely make Saboteur work there at least.
>>745236981demo is peak
>>745237103it would be if not for the fucking minesi sure love having to stop to recast them every 2 seconds because the boss moved out of their tiny stationary aoe
>>745236619www.antifandom.com/grimdawn/wiki/Blacksmith
Only thing missing is a follower system, so I can run around with a berserker red head princess.
>>745236297Thanks. I'll stick with fire strike and see how it goes.>>745236725I went into the game blind so I didn't know which class combos go well or not
>>745237402Kinda weird that followers is something that D2 clones were slow to copy really. I guess PoE has had stuff like AG for a while, but Mercs only got ported over like this year. Having followers would've been kinda interesting.
>>745237402>Stands around>Says she would make you a pet>Does nothing else
>>745236608It's closer than expected after DLing a dps meter. Wrath wins out on single target by ~20%, but the sword wins in aoe by ~25%. Probably still will go with Wrath since bosses tend to be more dangerous and aoe groupings are iffy.
>>745237350I thought they made the blacksmith do the same shit years ago.
>>745199862>you recognize stats at a glancea feat also achievable by knowing how to read
WHAT THE FUCKwhat about manticore eyes, CRAAATE?!
>>745188691>You've successfully killed the Warden, but I fear we're in for... a Grim DawnWhy do they do this
>>745238397>We're in for a Grim Dawn, Forgotten Gods are on the move I feardid they get Kojima in to write this shit
>>745195801Look I hate niggers, faggots, kikes, and trannies just like you do but if you can't see the value of instantly seeing an orange damage number to know an item buffs fire, then the jews deserve to subjugate people like you
>>745238509>>745238397>We must find it, the source of this plague, in the Ashes of MalmouthBRAVO KRIPKE
>>745238531the mystical runes that look like f i r and e, when combined, become the word fire. we have defined fire and we know what it is.you shouldn't need the word to be red to know what it is.
What is a good MI weapon for cold birb?
>>745238245eyes and totems next patch, trust the plan
Give me a map to farm for rare boots.
>>745195801It literally clashes with the whole theme of Grim Dawn. It's crazy how many retarded ADD riddled kids NEED to have it. >oh, i need it, it helps me identify everything so quickly!I can ID everything by reading and NOT fuck up the aesthetics of the game.
>>745239127Just craft intrepids and can it a day
>>745239178
>>745239245Keep at the 4th level readers, soon you'll be able to read "Cold damage" lightning quick!
>>745237817Let me guess, you want more?
>>745238397>>745238509>>745238574>"That was an incredible battle, Taken, now we have enough manpower to create the Steam Loyalist Items Pack 2 CDN $10.99"
>>745239451yeah?
>>745187716just started, first tim playing, do choices matter? I killed the fag who poisoned the water and lost out on the key, according to vidya gaem logic he should have dropped the key(if this was POE he would have dropped the key when I killed him). Once a traitor, always a traitor.Also I don't want to look up any builds, should I?I'm just going with what I like, ranged mage with pet Raven.
>>745238716>>745238716>>745238716anybody?
>>745239352I dunno man, colors dont offend me the way they clearly seem to offend you
>>745239524If you want to be a min/maxing metafag, killing him is a bad idea since he would've appeared later on as a constant enemy to farm up. Some choices do matter later on, but nothing to stress over.
>>745239584Spectral Longsword to convert pierce to cold
>>745239486Oh
>>745239524you can still get the key as a random drop from cultist enemies
>>745239584the maces the ghosts drop, spectral bludgeons or someshit
>>745239524If this was PoE youd still be in act 1 because GGG still hates new players
>>745239524They do and it's easy to fuck up in this game but you get ample chances to fix anything you do so it's no big deal. Even in the absolute worst case scenario you can cheat since it's a single player game and there's no community attitude of being strict on how people play but most people never need to.Just go in, do what you want and take it easy
>>745237402But there is a follower system. You're accepting her quests and following them.
>>745239524What class(es)? you playing anon? What are you planning on building?
>>745239884>They do and it's easy to fuck up in this gameYou're overhyping it. The worst you can do is pick Kymon or DV and get locked out from the gear from either but even then their stuff has been largely powercrept. Barrowholm is definitely a bigger thing but you're setting yourself up if you decide to go against the faction that clearly has a reputation bar.
>>745239524based chud instinct gamer
Yeah, I'm hiding like a bitch behind a bunch of pets. You mad?
>>745239524Yes they matter but they very rarely have any items you cant get from anywhere else, plus you can choose the other faction in any other difficulty/character
>>745238509The "Forgotten Gods" are "on the move"
>find an upgrade>have to go through and change all my augments and components to use it this is so obnoxious
>>745240554I pretty much only upgrade early game, when I kill monster vagina, then at 94 now to avoid fixing things
>look at boots>oh yeah this one would be nice>do a "one more round">actually drop itNeat. Now I need to puzzle my res together again.
>level 76>hunting an MI for and upgrade>expect it to drop at level 70>drops at level 84
>>7452413141.3 change, they only drop up now
I Pneumtaic Burst enables and requires dual wielding melee wtf.
>>745239524You can pick different shit every time you change difficulties so it really only matters a little on Ultimate
>Anumfol has up to 261% increased frostburn durationwtf
masteries for a Sauron build?
Which ravager should I pick? They all seem pretty similar, probably the +% DA one?
