Ich hab sie jetzt auch zigmal geschmiedet und immer noch nicht die richtigen bekommen.
Das selbe mit dem Schild, seit Stunden checke ich den Händler aber ich kriege nie Des Herrscher Affix.
Any changes by new patch?
I have same question.I would rly apreciate an update regarding the new patch and if anything is changed
Pretty much everything in there is still optimal for their respective builds. Problem is, retal is in a bad spot right now.

I see, thx for the reply.So then is not worth making a retal build atm?
Only if you want facetankers, damage has fallen quite a bit.
I understand.Too bad, wanted to make a char to fatm sr 75-76 very fast and to not die if posible, i believed this build is the perfect one
Should still be fast in SR with risky play aggroing entire maps.

thank you, i will might give it a try
According to tens of tries of my friend and I, for SR 75&76, phys retal WL performs much worse than Warborn Set WL
Warborn WL:
Standard version: Warlord, Level 100 (GD 1.1.9.2) - Grim Dawn Build Calculator ,SR 75-76, 7min
Luxury version: Warlord, Level 100 (GD 1.1.9.2) - Grim Dawn Build Calculator, SR75-76, 6:30
It performs better both offensively and defensively.

thank you very much
The devotions too? I thought bear armor shred was optimal in all physical builds since phyisical damage no longer ignores armor (physical retal included)?
Bear is probably the one thing that needs testing. I tested it on retal DE one time but it wasn’t worth it.
That’s because retal DE doesn’t have any straight phys dmg. Bear is very good for phys retal WL (righteous fervor), and ele2phys is not needed(because you would lose lots of %phys damage if you select ele retal items).
See this: Warlord, Level 100 (GD 1.1.9.3) - Grim Dawn Build Calculator. It’s okay at dmg output.
However, it’s not tanky enough as a retal (hardly able to solo ravager, hardly able to pass SR95, unless you take lots of potions), due to lack of phys res on the shield.
Bear is better on retal DE than on stoneguard in theory, since armor is flat reduction and DE has lower phys ticks than RF in general. However, given how bad retal damage is now I won’t be surprised if bear ends up being better at stoneguard than no bear.
There is something confusing. According to my tests, it seems that what mostly affects damage output of phys retal WL is not whether you take stoneguard set or not, but whether you take M Zolhan’s Revenge or not. That’s a bit hard to explain because generally you would get more retal from an Overlord’s Colossal Fortress of Thorns than from M Zolhan’s Revenge, but M Zolhan’s Revenge turns out better at damage.
Here is my theory, that retals on MI, Prefix and Suffix are reduced by armor individually. If so, the prefix Overlord, suffix Thorns and suffix Vengeance should get a little bump up.
Phys retal damage is bad now even with M Zolhan’s Revenge. I can accept it because retal SHOULD be bad at damage. However, I can’t accept a retal being neither offensive nor tanky, simply because there is no phys res on that goddamn shield!
This is what it should be. On nonretal, each source of flat damage gets reduced by armor individially. It makes sense to be the same for retal.
I’ve done more than a hundred tomb of heretic runs and korvan spaulders of blades has never dropped. The one i use dropped in SR 75 76 and the two others when i was farming totems on another toon. Best to trade for them imho.
hi AH ! thanks so much for your retal build. Clearing ultimate 75 76 very comfortably no potions needed ( with few deaths from bad combination of mutators like armore + shattered + vengeful + retaliation ). For end bosses aleksander is a pain with his DA shred and gargabol with his fire retal . Grateful your comments on the link below.
here"s my GT link Warlord, Level 100 (GD 1.1.9.4) - Grim Dawn Build Calculator
is it still viable after the latest update?
