2H Elementalist final weapon suggestion?

Grim Dawn Classes, Skills and Builds

Right now just using a crafted 2H hammer but looking for ideas on what to use for level 65+ then 75+

Going with the usual Firestrike 1/1/12+/12+ build right now with Shaman skills to support. So far I’ve just been able to run around obliterating swarms and elites dont seem to cause much issue yet on Elite.

Also any opinions on Grasping Vines vs Wendigo?

Off-topic, what build are you playing? I’m playing GD for the first time now and I’m a 44 demo and I have no idea what to do with the character atm… I’m also playing 2h firestrike, using the brimstone set rifle though.

Nice suggestion and I actually had one stashed away on my Spellbreaker.

@xiuzao This is where I am at now http://grimcalc.com/build/ld6Unz I’ll probably keep Feral Hunger at 10/10 (including +skills no reason to overlevel it) then eventually pick up either Wendigo or Grasping Vines just not sure which yet. You should try to overlevel Brimstone as much as you can.

I love wendigo. Works well in that build being melee and all.

I am curious, why pump so much into temper? I didn’t look much into it but a lot of other skills seemed more beneficial.

It’s what I did on my Commando and it worked well for me and the extra +armor. Although he was a physical dmg sword/shield so maybe I’ll drop it some if I need points elsewhere.

I was looking at Grasping Vines because I’ve read on others builds it seems to work well with some devotion skills/procs. And a little extra CC never hurts.

That’s why I’m surprised you don’t have anything invested in flashbang or cuncussive bomb. Thermite mine seems nice too.

TBH I am having no issues just running around whacking anything that moves. No need for additional skills right now and he is only level 60 still. Lots of time to add more skills when needed.

This is my proposed Elementalist. Currently level 67, similar to yours. Currently I’m using Flashbang to proc Eldritch Fire but am planning to swap that for “Meteor” skill from Annihilation Relic. But yeah, it can just whack stuff to death at the moment.

I’ve got a Commando 2-hander but it blows compared to my Elementalist. Don’t know if I’ll bother trying to fix it.

Now I am stuck which devotion skill to tie to my LMB (Fire Strike). Currently my RMB is Sacred Strike, so I’ll need a skill to tie to that too. I mainly use Sacred Strike on Elites and Bosses.

Finally picked up a skill from the Shaman tree, went with Wendigo but not sure if I’ll keep it. I think Grasping Vines might suit a little better just not sure how much to dump into it?

edit: Devotion tree right now is Eel, Scholars Light & Kraken

Dropped Wendigo and picked up Grasping Vines and Flashbang. I want to take Grasping Vines to 10/10 for a larger radius but need to find points from somewhere but I’ll leave Entangling at 1 +skill bonuses.

I have Flame Torrent now and tied it to Fire Strike. Giant’s Blood tied to Vindictive Flame. Next up I’ll get Raven and Scholar’s Light so I can get Meteor Shower from Ulzuin’s Torch then tie that to Grasping Vines or Sacred Strike.

Still not using any real gear just level 40-50 junk I had in my stash. I have 3 pieces from Ulzuin’s Avatar set in my shared stash but the Heart of Ulzuin is a PIA to find :furious:
