Grim Dawn Build Selection Flowchart

[mad_lee]

If you think something is higher up on the solid/strongest hierarchy that shouldn’t be, please point it out (either here or in DMs). Something being in memes, however, is unlikely to leave.

I have quite a few top-tier builds that I couldn’t find on that chart:

[1.1.7.1] Phantasmal Paradox: 5m Crucible Gladiator 150-170, SR 75-76 beastly vitality PB-caster Dervish [c+][sr+][vid]

[image] *When Mad Lee releases a new build and you have to code a new hotfix nerf over night (Many thanks to @Tararihen for the great picture) Foreword This wasn’t the first time Harra has tasted defeat. Only this time defeat tasted a lot like blood mixed with sharp, burning cold icicles. She had aching frostbites all over her body. Olexra finally had her revenge. Harra couldn’t understand why her blades weren’t penetrating Olexra’s new armor. It seems like Imperial Inquisition had turned its…

[1.1.7.1] The Burn Ward - 5m Crucible Gladiator 150-170, SR 75-76 no greens caster Shieldbreaker [c+][g3][sr+]

[%D0%B8%D0%B7%D0%BE%D0%B1%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%B6%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%B5] *Burn Ward welcoming all kinds of patients who got into a contact with super Hot Builds [mad1lee] Thanks to user @omnitrio Foreword This one was born when I was testing early versions of @dmt’s Shieldbreaker (be sure to check it out if she decides to post it she has finally posted it). But I have changed the focus from Blackwater Cocktail to Thermite Mines, changed a lot of gear and devotion map so the build became kind of …

[1.1.7.1] Bleeding Glass Shards 3: The Bloody Grasp - 5:15m Crucible 150-170 (4:31 fastest), SR 75-76 farmer no greens Bleeding hybrid Trickster [vid][g3][c+][sr+]

[%D0%B8%D0%B7%D0%BE%D0%B1%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%B6%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%B5]* *Took me actually forever to make it, lol Foreword I have been a fan of Tricksters since I have assembled my first gimmicky Trickster build 1,5 years ago. It’s a class that in all of its iterations relies on damage in order to survive, however it’s also one of the hardest classes to balance and make a consistent build of. Since the nerf vendetta against Bleeding Tricksters, they became a second fiddle to Bleeding Warders: in…

[1.1.7.1] The Blight King: 4:50m Crucible Gladiator 150-170 (6:13m "naked"), easy SR 75-76 (up to Shard 90) vitality Blightlord Opressor [sr+][cr+][vid]

Choosing a component skill for one of the strongest Vitality builds ever will be like [op4] Foreword Blightlord is one of the strongest sets in the game and probably the most versatile one (bar Shattered Guardian set). Blightlord’s Opressor has been done countless times. I decided to post my version simply because I think it’s the best one yet and it’s a real blast to play. The Build <<<< GRIMTOOLS >>>> *Craft for slow res **Affixes on greens don’t matter as much as long as you patch your re…

[1.1.7.1] Caustic Rebuke: 5:20m Crucible Gladiator, SR 90, 45 seconds Ravager retaliation caster Sentinel [sr+][c+][vid]

[image] Foreword This is my second venture into the realm of retaliation builds. That’s pretty much all that I wanted to say in this section. Check all of my builds here. The Build <<<< GRIMTOOLS >>>> <<<< Ravager’s spec Grimtools >>>> Questions asked with a certain degree of acidity How consistent is the build with Fevered Rage? Pretty consistent once you get a grasp of it. You can always turn it off though. What about green amulet - Ronaprax St…

[1.1.7.2] Rahn's Rocket: 5:10m Crucible Gladiator 150-170, SR 75-76 (SR 100), Celestials killer lightning caster Sorcerer [vid][cr+][sr+]

[%D0%B8%D0%B7%D0%BE%D0%B1%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%B6%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%B5] *Destination: planet Nerfs Foreword This is a build that probably has been done before in some form or another so I will try to make it short. A lot of testing work and ideas should be credited to @Shoot2033 (the most important part of which is devotion map). The Build 1.1.7.2 Update All right, Zantai, we play a caster with two pistols if you keep insisting so much. Build has lost some quality of life but damage wise it’s t…

And those are like top of the crop ones, and I have also a bunch of builds that I made for weaker classes.
