Windfall Edition(game ver 1.2.1.2; 07/November/2024, Seoul, South Korea )
I realized that the Painkiller Edition Warderās Devotion was quite powerful, so I tweaked it a bit and applied it to the Warlord. The results exceeded my expectations on both the offensive and defensive sides of my Warlord, and Iāve named this revision the Windfall Edition. I consider this Windfall Edition Warlord to be the simplest and the sturdiest and most powerful character I have ever created.
Hello. This build guide is very helpful. thank you.
I have a question, but in this build, I donāt use Necromancer as a subclass, so I feel that Leviathanās status is a waste. Therefore, I donāt think the weapon needs to be Leviathan, but are there any other suitable weapons that you think would be better?
I think whether or not Leviathan is appropriate for Warlord depends on the goals of the build. For my Warlord build, The goal of my warlord build is to āuse cadence physical attacks to quickly take down superbossesā.
With that goal in mind, Leviathan is a great fit for the Warlord build because it provides +2 Cadence, +2 to all Soldier skills, very high Physical Resist of 18%, which is critical to withstanding the high damage of the superbosses (Cala, Ravager), and very high Attack Speed, which is critical to boosting my DPS.
My Death Knight, Witchblade, and Warlord all use the same Leviathan. Although it is unfortunate that Leviathan only supports the Necromancerās skills and not the Occultist and Oathkeeperās skills, based on my goals outlined above, I consider Leviathan to be a very good weapon for my Warlord build.
I see. If possible, is there an optimal tree using something like Voldrak?
Iām having a hard time finding the best build for Kadenz, and Iām thinking about it.
Thanks to you guys, I understand that Voldrakās Crusher is a very good weapon for cadence, but if I abandon my no-MI stubbornness in the future, I wonāt easily choose Voldrakās Crusher over Leviathan.
I think the underlying reason for this is that people have different interpretations of the question, āWhich characters are strong in Grimdawn?ā.
For some, a strong character is a character who can beat the superbosses quickly, for others, itās a character who can reach higher floors in SR, for others, itās a character who can complete SR 75-76 faster, for others, itās a character who can hardly die in any situation, and so on.
I consider a āstrong characterā to be a character who can beat superbosses quickly without Pharma doping and reach the higher levels of SR in time without dying. Therefore, Voldrakās Crusher is an excellent weapon, but it will be difficult to beat super bosses without Pharma doping because it does not provide physical resistance. Of course, in the next version of Grimdawn (1.2.1.0), Voldrakās Crusher may surpass Leviathan, even by my standards.
the Voldrak suggestion wasnāt for you, i even mention you specifically build for no MI
but Nagisa asked which weapon there would be for Warlord/best for warlord, and Leviathan doesnāt come close to Voldrak on a Warlord if a player is willing to use MIs, hence why mentioning it
*and on an unrelated note; you can get phys res on Voldrak too btw
This is a great tip, but it would have been nice to hear it earlier. I feel obligated to start collecting Voldrakās Crushers with good options now, so that I have a Voldrakās Crusher to use at some point in the future when my no-MI project is finished or I abandon this project.
Even without MIs, itās amazing. Iām currently referencing this build a lot, but in the upcoming 1.2.1.0 itās said to be harder to get physical resist throughout the game, will the power of this build be maintained?
In the next version, 1.2.1.0, I donāt know if my superboss killers will be able to keep that ability. Most likely, some build modifications will be required. If it doesnāt work anymore after a build fix, my no-MI Superboss Killer project will be closed. Separately, Iām already exhausted, and after a cursory look at the rest of the other soldier-based charactersā skills, Iām not feeling very confident, so Warlord is likely the end of my project.
I have added an alternative build to the text that significantly improves stability against Calagadra. It has a 5% increase in physical resist compared to the original build. The constellations added are constellations that will not have their physical resist removed in the upcoming 1.2.1.0 release, so I believe it will contribute to anti-Calagadra stability in the future.
Do not attack the Ravager immediately after sliding. As you can see in the video, there is a deliberate delay after the sliding. Immediately after sliding, take a moment to walk a little further forward and then walk back and attack. This is where it differs from the fight with Calagadra. Is it fair to say that Ravager has a slightly longer sunder?. This was definitely not the case in 1.2.0.0, but in 1.2.0.5 it felt like it was slightly longer. Iād be interested to hear from others who know exactly what this is.
Will you tell me how to read āanternative_Warborne-Warlord.zipā.
In the zip file, there are many filesā¦
Is there a program to read it? or what should i do?
Extract the folder (_Warborne-Warlord) included in the zip file into the Document > My Games > Grim Dawn > save > main folder. Then, run the game and you will see the warlord character. The folder to extract may not be there. I hope others can answer in more detail.
If you want to take down a Lokarr or higher superboss without pharma doping, you should probably have a physical resist of total 58 or higher. Iāve already shown in the text that you can defeat Ravager and Calagadra even if you donāt have a warborn set. Any weapon that can achieve a total physical resist of 58 or higher is good, even if it is not a Leviathan.
In the case of my warder, his total physical resist is only 40. However, with 30% life leech, 4x the health regen rate of the Warlord, and a temporary +18% Physical Resist, I was able to take down the Superboss. Warlord canāt be like warder, so if you want to take down a superboss, particularly Calagadra, by sliding alone, without pharma doping, youāll need to use Leviathan because Leviathan provides an additional 18% Physical Resist.
In addition to 58+ physical resist, you should have around 200,000+ dps, 17%+ life leech, high health (including Turtle of devotion), etc. No one can tell you what the exact requirements are.
