I am going back and forth with different classes to figure out what is a tanky class since im not very good at playing or is it called piloting. When the screen is filled with colors and explosions i get confused whats mine and whats the boss
Currently i have a level 100 ritualist and i can do SR 65 max with him https://www.grimtools.com/calc/lNk6KXRZ
Then i tried pet conjurer and its pretty okâish but i think something is missing. https://www.grimtools.com/calc/qNYO4AWV
As for leveling im trying phantasmal blade / ravenous earth and i like him but i hear that its not something thats played endgame.
I also wanted to try one of these AAR classes but not sure which is tanky.
RE opressor is also on my mind.
So as you can see im very confused on what to choose from.
Iâm not sure I would call your build beginner friendlyâŚI feel like that should be reserved for target farmmable sets &/or builds using faction gear.
Basically, build using gear all players can 100% find.
E.g. Youâre using Aleksander pants. Iâm not sure if most beginners can even kill aleks
My build is exactly the one âusing gear all players can 100% findâ. Alex isnt scary at all, iâve killed him first time at level ~95 (with character, started from scratch). He deals fire and aether damage, and my build has high resists VS both. And the main problem was not kill him, but grind rep and actually find him. By the time you get enough rep for that, you will be able to kill him with this build (if you do it properly). And those pants arent even mandatory!
It would be fair to say i like placing crap on the floor and then kite. Hence RE like my ritualist. And pet builds are also kiting.
What about your Opressor Nery? Tanky?
He does that âinsane physical damageâ once every 10-15 seconds, if not more. As long as his meteor doesnt oneshot you, just use HP potion and be fine. Or mirror (before impact). Of course, speaking strictly, meteor should be evaded, but i didnt even bothered with that. Alex is caster, he doesnt smash you with physical damage all the time, like Kupakabra.
RE is nice skill. But not sure how good is my Opressor there with optimal gear. Cause I built it cheaply as possible.
But if you like RE play it. If you want to add another skill then try the PB Reaper version. Basically in Grim Dawn you have so many cool skills to try
@Sn00zZz I donât mean to disparage anyone, but I honestly believe that if you want a target farmmable set you can assemble in 2 weeks of smart playing, dark oneâs is the way to go.
Itâs incredibly powerful for how universally accessible it is, and it is also tanky as shit.
I posted a guide more or less right below this one demonstrating how resilient an end-game dark oneâs ritualist can be.
Magehunterâs like BOG suggested are also tanky buggers because of maivenâs, inqui seal, and aura of censure.
@BOG: I donât think a new player would know how to play against aleksander. Thatâs my point.
OP just said he/she canât pilot well. So Iâm assuming he wants something capable of facetanking with impunity.
It just seems to me that until you assemble items like lightâs defender (which isnât easy), the magehunter isnât going to be as beefy as yours is.
Not looking for an argument, I just want to voice my opinion, and let OP decide.
