This is the very first build I made entirely on my own, dunno if something similar has been made before. Just wanted a tanky, life stealing melee and threw Bone Harvest in there for some sweet AoE! I’m not an expert at Grim Dawn by any means, have 200 hours played, and therefor am not aware of the most optimal items for every build. I also don’t know if this build would even be good as I just started leveling it and am nowhere near endgame (so far it works well though). I’d be really happy for some hints on where to improve, especially regarding the gear selection!
Dying God and Rattosh are kind of mandatory on any vit build. This route wil also give you more DA which you are lacking, especially for a melee build. Give it a try.
Dont know if you found all components yet but seal of blades of seal of might will be way beter then resi plating.
Gearwise: first time i see some1 using that shield, credits for that
Also your armour absorb is very low. Scaled Hide component can help there but then you need to re-arrange your resists.
Yeah I could (and probably will in the future cause Bone Harvest is fun), but I really wanted to try primarily a tanky melee and Bone Harvest is there to deal with AoE.
If you were interested in going heavy on the Righteous Fervor/WPS aspect over Bone Harvest - this shell/rough-draft of a dual-wield WPS/tank Oppressor for 1.1.7.0 might interest you: https://www.grimtools.com/calc/4NOPaEO2
The Weapon you use actually looks very fitting for my build as well, didn’t see that one before, same goes for the helmet… Thanks man, this actually helps a lot
