Posting this as a reminder to our wonderful building community out there.

[Patch] - version of the game the build is for. Obviously, the time goes on and some builds may receive revisions for newer patches. I accept requests to change the patch version of your submission if that happens.

When I go through the threads I missed overnight I often seen builds that have been updated to the latest version of the game, but you haven’t asked for that to be done here. Please help keep the build compendium up to date so others know if your build has been updated or not. You can edit your thread titles yourselves iirc to update these, but if I’m wrong on that then simply PM a mod to do it for you. This is particularly important for the beginner builds in the compendium; I often see new players to the game asking if there are any up to date builds in there because they don’t look like they’ve been updated from their titles.

Almost forgot to add this:

Heyo!

• [Caster/Player-Scaled Pets] [1.1.6.2] (mi) (c+) (vid)[1.1.6.2] Biting Blademaster - A.K.A Why you shouldn't play pierce forcewave (x1x1x1x2)

  • Damage: Pierce
  • Active Skills: Blade Spirit, Biting Blades, Ring of Steel, Shadow Strike, Pneumatic Burst
  • Passive Skills: Veil of Shadow, Oleron’s Rage, Field Command
  • WPS Skills: Nope

(adding biting blades on actives even tho component skills shouldn’t be added as per new rules due to the fact that it’s the main skill in this build.)

[Stupid_Dragon]

Well, actually~

Active Skills - list your active skills, separated by a comma. You need to list all the active skills the build uses regardless of where they come from.

• If your build got access to say Stormfire but you don’t actually use it then it shouldn’t be mentioned.
• The one pointer skill you took just for proccing some devotion should be mentioned.

Hello, i have two begginer’s guides to submit

[1.1.6.2] American dream: from 0 to beating endgame with scrap metal and bare hands (Blademaster, For beginners, Faction gear, Pure DW melee, SR75, Crucible 150-170)

[rocky1] beaten-up player ready to quit Grim Dawn So you are near the endgame and your build just doesn’t come together, you are out of luck. In fact, you can’t catch a break: every big item you find is for someone else. The plan you had in mind (maybe you’ve been following some guide) falls apart because the game is almost finished and you can’t even farm lower shards or Crucible waves. Maybe you feel like trading is cheating or maybe you are just shy? Maybe you don’t like any of the existin…

[1.1.6.2] Beginner's Shadow Strike Infiltrator. Cruise through endgame in faction gear and without keyboard

[matrix-neo-one-arm-optimized] – I am the chosen one…, – you, lying on your sofa with a wireless mouse in one hand and a bag of chips in another, while playing this build <<< GRIMTOOLS >>> Infiltrator is one of the few melee-friendly classes. It’s probably not as versatile from the beginner’s stand point as Blademaster. But it’s a little stronger in it’s best version and it certainly deserves to have a strong build for beginners (same goes to one of two best dmg types for m…

Hello, wonderful people!

As you might have noticed, I’m adding builds ASAP again. That’s because I have a bit more of a free time, you probably know why . Strange time we’re living in.

Because of that extra time, I have also prepaired a new Compendium reform.

Due to history of complains that not many builds have levelling tips a full levelling guide and devotion acquisition path is now mandatory for each build in compendium. I understand that it would be unreasonable to start purges right away, so you have time until tomorror’s sunrise to add it. Let’s all strive to make this Compendium and community even more beginner-friendly.

Rules in the first post will be adjusted later today.

Happy April’s Fool day
