[Aether Lightning] 2h-Savagery Aether Lightning Conjurer

Thank you so much for your reply. I would agree with you, the visuals of the build is beautiful! I would like to add I have been going through several of your previous builds before, and I have enjoyed them a lot. They are also very informative in the sense that by looking at your choices, I learn a lot about the game. I really appreciate your work.

When I have time later, I will look at my augments vs yours, its exciting to see if I have managed to guess which ones you have used. One big issue I had, was reaching 80% with both pierce and chaos in resistances. Where chaos was definitely the hardest one. I think I had to use ring augments with resistance on them for both chaos and aether. Can stat rolls really wary that much?

Also, I think you often choose “of Kings” with your MI’s. Is that because of the potential speed boost and flat health added mainly?

Getting to the heart of the matter :stuck_out_tongue:

Really cool looking build (visually and performance-y), I might give it a shot while I wait for the expansion to come out.

-Your welcome and thank you for the kind remarks

-I personally would suggest you that there’s no need to overcap aether and chaos, but different playstyles so feel free to do it

-i go for health over the run speed in those suffixes, “of the Flesh Hulk” items give me more pierce resistance which is usually not needed in my builds.

-A lot of these MIs have been recycled from other builds that i don’t play often

Thanks :wink:

Most builds need to many MI items to cap resists, thats the problem if u dont want to waste years on farming or always moving it between the chars…

-Not quite actually, none of my builds are essentially gear dependent unless there’s some sort of conversion happening.

-Those MI slots can be occupied by any item (yellow, green, blue or purple) as long as it has resistances, the rest of the resistances can be capped by moving augments.

-MIs are BiS but BiS isn’t necessary for the build to perform :wink:

-Some builds of mine can’t cap resistances despite using MIs in such cases i keep an extra stash of augments

Hey, I’m a bit newer to Grim Dawn than most of the people here. Will you please add a few things to the guide. It would help a lot. Thanks for the guide, I’m currently at lvl 33 and am looking forward to

  • Screenshots or Grimcalc of the Skills without +skills modifiers
  • What skills to pick at what levels (what is a priority)
  • If you used other skills to level faster before changing to the current one (e.g. devouring swarm, etc.)
  1. I’ll add it when i get the time. Sorry :stuck_out_tongue:

2 & 3. Dreeg’s Evil Eye for levelling faster OR Greater Fireblast (granted by item Flintcore bolts). I never use DS if i have Occultist is in the mix. You can switch 2h-Savagery at level 50 but focus on Lightning till you find the apt gear

Thank you nice build.
Why do you get Second Rite? Vitality resistance?

Thank you.

Yeah it’s a free source of resistance.

reserved for later

Tell me you’re not a bot or i’d get you banned

Why would anyone need a bot? Especially on forums…
.

Ah, a new player

Sorry about that, i suspected you were a bot.

Welcome to the forums, sorry about the “dicky welcome” we had rough history dealing with bots in the earlier days

well, not a problem :smiley:
I was surprised, because i simply don’t understand why would anyone bother making bots :smiley:

anyway, thanks for welcome and i have a simple question - would you reccomend conjurer or warder atm? :smiley:

Depends, my build works wonders as conjurer.

For Lightning and to a new player looking for farming i’d recommend warder

I ask, because i have lvl 50 warder, but i am eager to try a conjurer - so ifi respec it with trainer, in what points should i invest? max occultist as you said in post, and then savagery first or primal and then respec later onto savagery? :slight_smile: thanks!

Hmm, at level 50 a savagery conjurer should be good. But you need to focus on lightning first and the shift to aether-lightning when you get the weapon

I don’t see any reason not to go conjurer

i was thinking something like that for skill development, notice that i didnt use exact number of skill points i have atm, i have few left. you have any suggestions for now?
should i bother taking Solael witch fire in occ? and brute force in shaman?
:slight_smile: you have been really helpful!

New player here - recently started and aiming to try this build.
I dont understand above quote - you have 1k+ phys on screens and you claim you do not add anything to phys during lvl ups?

So what stats should I click for this build?

Sorry i missed a word, and that word is “besides”

I meant i didn’t add into anything besides physique :stuck_out_tongue:

Brute Force and Solael add flat damage and attack speed. You need Brute Force but can do w/o attack speed early on.

Your Priorities
