Organizing it by classes seems to be best to me, too. If each dual-class receives it’s own post then we need 28 post plus one for the OP (with the table of content linking to each class) and one for odd single- and no-class builds. Well, with FG the 28 posts will apparently increase to 36 (or even 45?).
Most contributors will play with the most recent expansion, but for those who are not, we could use a new tag [vanilla] or [AoM] to highlight their builds. I’d add them to the end of each class’s post.
I would like to expand on this because I often miss core elements, if they are not added to the thread title. Would it be reasonable to add the following as (optional) bullet points to the submission format?
Concept - e.g. Primal Strike, CDR, Crit, etc.
Build Defining Gear - e.g. the set, a special MI, etc.
I definitely love this suggestion. Now posters are forced to describe the most important parts in the title, but with 2 additional bullets for build core it must be much clearer to understand what “that build” does.
However, this means LOTS of work for OP.
My thoughts exactly. Here are a few changes that could ease everyone’s life:
There could be a formatted “Description” instead of “Damage” with, for instance, this format: Archetype (Caster, Melee, Ranged, Pet, Hybrid …) - Weapon type (S&B, Dual Wield etc.) - Main Damage - Main Ability - Important/Secondary Mechanic (that defines the buid: CDR, Granted Skill, Notable Devotion, Gear Set-up, 100% WPS etc.)
I’d like to see a Gear/Stuff/Equipment field below “WPS”. Not the a full gear list but only the main set used and other notable items if the OP finds appropriate to put them. That way, we can sort (ctrl+F) by Set. I was looking for a Valdun build the other day and it’s hard to find.
Is the WPS field mandatory? Always seemed useless.
Spoilers: I already tested it in Crucible (my variation), it works well. Just re-equipped my old character with top gear.
But full testing and guide are planned on later, I need to level up a fresh character, this time I level it in coop with my wife
The title should be used for creativity “C’tholaro’Aktalamor, The Destroyer of Worlds and Galaxies”.
Description: Caster - Physical - G&B - Throw Feces
As vertragna said, we need to see “what the build does”.
The label, in my mind, is for 1.0.x.x. Not much room for long explanations in here.
(So for a 2h ranged tactician, Valdun isn’t the way to go? Fragmenting round is so fun and really efficient).
