A build test room

[EricTheOrange]

I’d like if their was a special mode where you got a character you could only use in that mode and could give them whatever gear and skills you want for free. That way you could test out a build without spending dozens of hours leveling up a character.

This is something I’ve wanted in ARPGs for a long time. I assume it’s possible with mods but not everyone uses those and it’d be nice if it was available to everybody.

This came to mind because I was looking at the awakened stonefather set,

Level 100 (GD 1.3.0.8) - Grim Dawn Build Calculator

That set is all about alternating between Blitz and Vire’s Might to ping pong around the battlefield. But you’d need to get to level 94 before you could really see how it feels. Even MI’s can’t recreate it’s special abilities.

Most people just uses third party apps, from GDStash to others available in Utilities and Resources section.

[Tool] Grim Build Loader - Turn grimtools link to character save file (.gdc)

[14] Download: Github Releases · NavingLord/GrimBuildLoader · GitHub Usage: Enter a grimtools link, select a base character file(.gdc) and an output directory, then click “Generate”. The tool fetches the grimtools data and produces a character save file (.gdc) that exactly matches the equipment setup, stats, affixes, ascended affixes, skills, and devotion allocations in the link. You can specify the name of the generated character (note that Grim Dawn normally only supports English …

This generates a character from a grimtools link.

Damn, it is 2026 and instead of flying cars, we get a GD character summoner?

Fine, I’ll take that.

this already exists in the game, it’s called custom mode + console commands, right there ~ in the game for you.
