Build-around Items

Grim Dawn Classes, Skills and Builds
1

My stash is full of legendary items. I was wondering if some are powerful enough to build around them i.e. endgame viable.

If so, could you share your build ?

First ones that come to mind:
Mythical Turrion’s Reprisal
Farath’s Cube

There are many legendaries, that are worth building around.
It would be too much work to list them all. Maybe, you should rather ask about your ideas about some specific legendaries (like, Mythical Beronath, Reforged, etc)

I mean items that have a strong passive, like PoE items have, that force you to take a predefined path. Turrion’s Reprisal for instance basically tells you to build Elemental and Retaliation for your Devotions. Is this build endgame viable ?

I’ve made builds around specific “granted by item” active abilities (Mage Hunter + Arcanor).

Superfluff’s cold infiltrator uses Farath’s Cube, and it looks like fun:

EDIT: Take a look at Chthon’a profile page for some ideas, he has nice builds that rely on conversion or perks from items.

Well, Grim Dawn doesnt have as many such items as PoE has, but still, there are several worth mentioning.
There are some items, that convert one damage type into another, allowing specific builds. Beronath, Reforged is one of them.
Most weapons deal physical damage, but there are some weapons, that deal purely non-physical damage (particulary - 2-handed ones), and they are used in specific builds (that use their base damage). Stormreaver, for example.

And there even are items, that grant active skills to be used as primary damage dealers. Just a few, but still. Items like Obsidian Juggernaut, Crown of Winter’s King, Runebinder’s Spellthrower, Tome of Arcane Wastes, etc.

Of course, most of them cant be called really powerful, but still…
