Any ideas on my build

Grim Dawn Classes, Skills and Builds

First time playing in a while, hadn’t done a Vire’s Might build, so gave it a run. Was running the Perdition set, have been swapping into some legendaries that I have picked up along the way.

I am liking the Vire’s Might and the Guardians. Intending to use the Demolitionist mainly for toggles and passives. Have been scattering points in various Oathbreaker skills and wondering if I should be concentrating more in one or two.

  • Not really wanting to use Eye of Reckoning or Aegis with this build. May do a different build later focusing on them.

  • Was using Fire Strike instead of Righteous Fervor, switched when I started using the Perdition set, with the +2 to Oathbreaker skills. Thinking about switching back.

  • Current intention is to get to 32 in Demolitionist mastery and push points into Blast Shield, linking the Behemoth devotion to it.

I would appreciate advice on the various passives, am thinking about dropping Ascension and p[utting the points into the Judgement tree, once I have Blast Shield to help me handle damage a bit better.

Builds in Grim Dawn are heavily dependent on gear for stats and skill bonuses. When trying to theorycraft a build I therefore advise you to also have a look at gear at the same time.

If you haven’t seen it already you can also upload skill files directly into grimtools which helps immensely. Click on the Icon with the arrow in the top left of the box.

Regarding your question: the most prominent build that utilizes vire’s might is vanquisher shildbreaker/templar e.g. https://www.grimtools.com/calc/DV93PYQN . Guardians as a damage skill is not very common. They are mostly utilized for their RR. For more inspiration regarding other shieldbreaker styles have a look at the extensive build compendium :wink:
