ComboMod Testversion

the nil-version got an update with the above fixes, the D2 Mod updated to the newest version and more overall fixes and cleanups, nothing too special but finally as i was too busy over the past 2 days to kick it in, sorry :slight_smile:

uhoh only after couple hours, right on transitioning to elite, I noticed a rather big thing missing; My pet build does not get ANY additional forgotten souls/vision quests summons. On my Wizard I’d get them all time, without activating that innate skill 'blood of the soulhunter. Now, on a Necro/witch doctor, even after activating it nothing spawns. I’d assume it’s because my only dmg comes from pets, but idk.

You can not get Grim Souls if you have the Blood of the Soulhunter Buff deactivated, this is to make it optional, if you get Grim Souls without this buff, please make a video :slight_smile:

About not getting Grim Souls while maintaining a pet build, i think there is nothing i can do about this as the controller will grab the player to do the action and this can not be a playerpet, unfortunatly, but i think about it and will test some things :slight_smile:

found a solution for this by simply changing the template of the initial buff, this will let you also empower your pets with this Innate Skill to get the Grim Souls, even with a petbuild, will be available later this day in the nil-version to test out :slight_smile:

ok weird, if I never used that blood of the soulhunter talent, then how did I have all those forgotten souls/vision bosses before? I don’t know. Now that I try, nothing comes up obviously.

it was a permant autocasted buff before the recent change :slight_smile:


aaaand here we go. Crash outtta nowhere, walking along, pets doing pet things. Nothing particular happening, can’t really tell any reason, but posting here just for the record.

well, i think 1 crash in a few weeks of playing is not that evil :slight_smile: something to grasp mate, then the chance of a fix is more likely as you know i guess :slight_smile: but great anyway to see you enjoy the grind :slight_smile: me drinking atm and transitioning to ultimate with my ā€œatm-playcharā€ :slight_smile:

greetingz <3

EDIT1: YES, exotic gear is too op for sure :))))

EDIT2: please send me this char if you like to let me further investigate to maybe get some hint on that crash :slight_smile:

Nah, don’t want to waste your time like that-there’s like no way to replicate that crash.
question though: is there a limit on pets speed? Players cap at 240%, but I have my pets attack speed at 272%.

edit: damn, my pets have better resistances than my hero :slight_smile: just got to 90 and wearing tyreal’s raiment, it’s powerful

i am not completely sure but i think there is no cap for pets, correct me if i am sure :wink:


My omega quest doesn’t want to complete for some reason
edit: looks like I can only complete it once/session, having to relog for more…

also, entering Ultimate, let’s see how it goes ;o

you can complete more in a single session by opening your mobile stash (for example), put 1 needed questmaterial inside and back to inventory then you will complete the quest, i am aware of this and don’t know how to make it better, but that works for sure :slight_smile:

will check for this asap :slight_smile: thank you <3

first one simply missed and second is caused by basegame which obviously does not use this itemskill anymore, so the Skill Rune will be removed for the next update, thanks again <3

I am new to this mod, but love it. Thank you!

I would like to ask for some tips, because I am experiencing some difficulty playing through the campaign. I am using vanilla warder build (one of the strongest build on the forum). After I defeat Loghorrean, I jump right into elite, but found really hard after middle of Act 1. So I came back to normal and tried to collect devotion shrines in Act 5 and 6. I continued to forgotten god in Normal, but encountered a lot of Omega monsters and they are pain in the ass. BTW, I have already deactivated the Blood of the Soulhunter Buff. Any tips I can use? Any strategies I can follow to make the play less painful and time-consuming? Thx!!

Great that you like it! <3 Sorry for your struggle, let me take a deeper look, just send me your characters, that would help alot. Beside that, have you upgraded your gear with Portable NPCs? Have you rolled or found Exotic gearitems? Do you use Archetype Mercs for your build? Do you use the Minipets to topup your overall resistances? Have you crafted some Buff-Food to boost your mainstats a bit? Alot you can do against this harsh world :wink:

Appreciate it. The build I follow is: Warder, Level 100 (GD 1.2.1.2) - Grim Dawn Build Calculator. I am about lvl 86, and have maxed out all the main damaging (savage tree), damage reduction (menhir’s bulwark) or resistance shred (war cry) nodes.

Beside that, have you upgraded your gear with Portable NPCs?
What? How? I just picked up the equipment here or there. I choose them based on the resistance, armor and damage type.

Have you rolled or found Exotic gearitems?
I use 1 or 2 Exotic gearitems from the devotion shrines.

Do you use Archetype Mercs for your build?
The tier 1 merc is quite wake and die very easily.

Do you use the Minipets to topup your overall resistances?
Yes, I use them and different components to max the resistances both in normal and elite.

Have you crafted some Buff-Food to boost your mainstats a bit?
No…

a very important step, you can augment most Epic + Legendary gearitems with the Shattering Blacksmiths, no D2 yet :slight_smile: furthermore you can Exchange any Epic + Legendary gearitem with Exchange Orbs at Exchange Blacksmiths, even D2 items :wink: furthermore you can gamble on Exotics with the Gambling Blacksmiths. All blacksmiths provide a boost via their craftingbonus as you will see then, all of them can be crafted in The Enclave of the Three with Ashdim at the usual spot.

yes, that’s why they T1 :slight_smile: find T2 in the Shattered Realm and get T3 lateron to switch out T1, when the time has come :slight_smile:

can be crafted at Ashdim aswell, can save your life for sure <3

EDIT1: after checking your build i guess it would be nice to have a Ring of Royal Grandeur for that Avenger set, find a Skill Rune to enable Dual Wield and go straight a berserk variant of that build for more damage, i guess :smiley: or even make it viable to go with a shield for alot more def :slight_smile:

GREAT thx for the detailed instructions!! :rofl:
Then what is your suggestions for going through different difficulties, normal, elite and ultimate? Stay in normal to lvl to 94 and farm in Shattered Realm for t2 merc? Or skip Act 5 & 6 and Forgotten God and try to get more devotion points in elite?
