My first character, am I doing alright or is there things to improve?

Not surprised; the creator didn’t want to update it for Ashes so as far as I know it’s not really been touched much since the base game came out. Way out of date by now since Crate have made so many changes to the game over the years.

Thank you all for your comments, much appreciated !

Possibly silly question: I notice the build you based this on is one of the old, base game only, pre-grimtools builds. I used a lot of those myself, but coming back to the game recently I’ve found that the grimcalc links no longer work. Is there some workaround that allows you to see them still? Or were you just using that old guide in the sense of looking at the gear, devotions, and text about the skills?

As powbam guessed, I just read about the devotions and the skills, then followed that. When I did a search for commando build, that was the one I thought were easiest to follow, I totally missed the date of the post though until later but then I already used the build for quiet a while so I just been continuing. Although from what I been reading in the forums, it seem to be rather common to rebuild your character once you hit level 94, so probably what I be doing.

Keeping your resistances up is great, especially once you advance to higher difficulties.

Good, at lease I am doing something right then !

I advise you to read a guide on how different types of resistance reduction stack and interact. I’m not sure where to find one to be honest, someone else might be able to help you there.

I’ll try and search for one, and maybe as you said, there might be someone that have a link handy as well. … Thank you for the explanation though, was another thing I not been thinking about !

For now stick with what you have and what you find, and adjust accordingly. Hope this helped.

Will do, hopefully things wont be to difficult for me when I move up to next level, although I know I am overleveled for Elite, but I did everything in Normal, well… Have one last quest to finish, was doing it last night but got killed by the end boss so be doing that tomorrow again.

… completely rework everything to get there.

I be doing this when I get to level 94 most likely, considering I am lvl 78 now, unless it is really needed I be waiting with a big respec for my character.

Yup, as mentioned further up I totally missed the date on it when I first found it. I’ll continue with it for now though and then see if I can find a more up to date Commando guide for lvl 94 or thereabouts.

In regards to another guide, if anyone know off hand of a guide that is similar to this, or at least using Cadence and the Assassins Blade constellation, (since would prefer not losing that. It’s at level 21 now so soon maxed out) please fell free to post a link for the build.

Thanks again for everyone’s insight, very much appreciated !

Doesn’t look like grimcalc even exists any more. I can’t access it with either Edge or Firefox.

Yup. It finally went completely offline either earlier this year or last year sometime and hasn’t been updated anyway since 2017 when GrimTools calc was released.

If anyone wants to know what GrimCalc looked like etc then you can still see it on Wayback.
