Brute Force, Feral Hunger and Upheaval

Grim Dawn Gameplay Discussion

I find it very odd that these skills are only available for 2handed melee and not for 2handed ranged.
It’s not that 2handed ranged is in a better place than 2handed melee :confused:

I really would like to hear your opinions about this :smiley:

I think it would be, actually, a fantastic idea to make Brute Force and Upheaval at least available for ranged. Feral Hunger might be trickier because of its AoE nature, but they could probably just pull a Fighting Form/Zolhan’s Technique with it and have it act slightly differently with a ranged weapon.

upheaval is a weird one. there’s no cooldown listed, but either the graphics are almost invisible or i never see it proc. once every hour or so i might notice it.

seems like it should proc EVERY crit correct? i don’t think it works as described.

One of the problems with Upheaval is that other WPS will override it. This includes Feral Hunger.

Kind of wish the devs would revisit Upheaval and make it different somehow so that’s less of an issue, but engine limitations and all that.

I could be wrong, but the big thing about Upheaval is that its damage is always critical. That means if you bind Reckless Tempest (for example) to Upheaval, RT will proc whenever Upheaval procs (because Upheaval is always critical).
