Easiest class to play that can clear everything?

Grim Dawn Classes, Skills and Builds
3

To add upon what Medea said… actually let me list them one by one first:

  1. First one is my Pet Conjurer linked above: The Fluffy Squishy - Pet Conjurer

    In the link you will find 3 versions of it; “Birds of Bysmiel”, “Lazy Birb” & “Lazy Birb, No Greens version”.
    The differences between them is minimal and they all do the trick just fine. So any of the 3 should do.
    That said, you might indeed notice that there are a few buttons to click around. Fret not, for you can make do with just 3: Blood of Dreeg, Curse of Frailty & Wind Devil.
    Blood of dreeg has a 30 second duration, so it is mostly a 2 button build should you prefer.
    And Uber bosses, Crucible, Shattered realm, all of it should be a breeze.

  1. One of the problems with Fluffy Squishy is that, for all its power, it is rather slow. Defense over offense and all that.
    So, should you desire a bit more speed at the cost of sturdiness, enter: Will O Wisp - Pet Cabalist

    While it has the same amount of buttons to push, that number can also be reduced to just 3 like before. Here it will be Blood of Dreeg, Curse of Frailty & Reap Spirit.
    Reap Spirit can be assigned to your left mouse button and with Blood of Dreeg having the aforementioned 30 sec duration, it might end up even more user friendly than the Pet Conjurer.
    One downside is that the build is rather fragile compared to the Conjurer, but still capable of everything ingame.

  1. But what if you want even less buttons? What if you want to feel like playing a proper Necromancer with an army of rattling bones? I must warn you that the following build is not as powerful as the ones above, but let me present to you: Skulls & Bones - Pet Cabalist

    It doesn’t fare well with Uber bosses of Grim Dawn due to the Skeletons being rather fragile to AoE. It is also not exactly fast or sturdy. However, it comes with 3 buttons to push by default (Blood of Dreeg, Curse of Frailty & Reap Spirit) and is fun to watch an army of bones marching to your beat.

  1. This one is not a pet build, but lazy and retaliation often go hand in hand. So: Drunken Fwuffy - Retaliation Warlord

    Do note that it is built to stand there and face-tank even the Uber bosses of this game and that comes at the cost of its speed when killing things. There are ways to fix that if you are willing to tone down the focus on defense and shift some of it towards its offensive capabilities, but I like to go for maximum laziness.
    There are 5 buttons to push, but for most things you will only need your left and right mouse buttons. The other 3 are also on a decent cooldown and duration, so it is not button heavy at all.
    One of the glaring downside with retaliation builds however, is that you will need to level it up differently as Retaliation requires proper items and such before it can work properly and will be painfully slow and ineffective otherwise.

Should you take an interest in pet builds, do give the small guide linked here a read: The Carnival - A Guide to Pets

It might be of some use :yum:
