Hi all… sorry if this is in the wrong thread. I’m a new player and I’m looking for a good melee build that can be done by self found, or mostly self found gear. I tried searching but I got overwhelmed… especially with the new patch. Some builds SEEMED good but then I reliazed some have updates not by the OP somewhere within 90 pages of replies.
Can anyone point me in the direction of some solid updated melee builds that work with the newest patch? Preferably also with a leveling guide as I’m a noob. Thanks!
I agree that a witchblade is a good solid choice for a new player. Pick up cadence and blitz, max curse of frailty and put a bunch of points in blood of dreeg to heal yourself, and pump the soldier passives and watch the mobs die. Here’s a quick sketch I threw together to give you some ideas http://grimcalc.com/build/1009-wBez4b
Btw, if a build hasn’t been updated then be sure to check if the OP himself is still active. Not every build needs to be updated every patch. Build updates are dictated by the original poster rather than the patch.
So if a patch effects a build but the OP feels there is no need for an update then the build is still “up-to-date”
Honestly Chton capping resist on the first character is harder than you seems to remember
I was super happy to go Witchblade for that exact reason. 22% Elemental Resist from Soldier Cap Poison from Blood and the free Chaos resist from Possession were all worth it.
Do I still need as much? No I’m getting BiS gear but for a first char that when lucky and getting the Praetorian set it end up being worn for 20 level cause it is the best you have having free resist on your Skill is a huge way to boost survivability.
Eh capping resists isn’t that hard, I always play self found, and still never had too many issues, just gotta focus on getting rep before moving to next difficulty.
OP I would say just choose the auto attack weapon skill that looks the best to you, and go with it, they all perform perfectly well.
