Ah, didnât see the full list there. Was confused because no scrolling. But probably could use tags for single masteries like Occultist, Soldier etc and for things like Crucible and Shattered Realms. Nothing much in special.
Also, just saw that the forum UI was also updated. Looks much neater now. No more clutter, hooray!
Ty guys <3
You can only add 5 tags. I wonder if you want to use 3 on the dual-class and its masteries. Maybe this is something you want to discuss in We need new build formats.
It was more in mind the single mastery builds like this one >> Link <<
Also ty for that link. I have a lot of catching up to do
I have added tags for the basic masteries, as well as for single mastery builds - e.g. Soldier vs Soldier-build. See the catalog.
Iâd welcome this option, too.
Like the newer format just fineâitâll be kind of fun to check it out in depthâalways something nice to find. Anyway, although I am confident that 100% of everyone who has posted and whoâs just browsing this thread is aware of this: I couldnât recall my password, and I wasnât sure which email address Iâd used, so I punched in what I thought was my user nameâit was, btwâand waited on the verification email that never came. So then I came back and was gratified to see I could put in the email address and just reset the passwordâso I did, then waited on the email which never came. But dummy here, thatâs me, somehow forgot to check his spam folderâand lo and beholdâI should have knownâthere were both emails from the crate system! Got in, no problem at all. Just wanted to remind everyone in similar straights to check your spam directoryâI had just forgotten all about it, franklyâsomehow.
AnywayâForum looks very niceâand this game is something else!
I like it but itâs too much of a pain in the arse to navigate⊠Maybe Iâm too old but this is going to be something to get used to or it needs a couple of changes.
EDIT: Never mind I worked out how to use the top bar properly lol, makes more sense now.
Yes found it.Thank you
Glad to see the forum is improving daily.
People have a lot of issues with the new platform but I think there are several things it does better than the previous forum too.
The preview is more convenient for one, it has more markup options, the âlast visitâ line is useful, and how a thread immediately scrolls to your last read post is nice too (although not everyone may like this).
And the âcrate trackerâ that shows all mod/dev posts is definitely useful.
Some browsing issues/requests I still have:
Not being able to see the original and latest poster separately
I think this is something that is fairly important and shouldnât be missing; hovering over the avatar for slightly more info isnât equivalent.
The buttons on the top (âGrim Dawn,â forum section) have different functions based on where you are
Clicking âGrim Dawnâ inside a thread brings you back to the category list and clicking âAnnouncements and Infoâ in this thread brings you back to the topic list.
But when youâre not inside a thread, clicking the same âGrim Dawnâ opens a drop down menu that has the option to bring you to âall categories,â which is not the forum categories you would expect but the 3 main ones (Grim Dawn, future projects, off topic), of which 2-3 are already listed in the same menu.
And the forum section name button instead opens a menu that has a list of the categories.
Itâs not a big issue, but it would be much easier if the same buttons just had the same function regardless of where you are.
I also think that section with the 3 categories isnât particularly useful and that the âoff topicâ part could be grouped with the other forum categories (like on the old forum), and the âfuture projectsâ could be an icon on the top right instead.
That way all the info is retained but it requires less clicking and removes a redundant menu.
The latest & new buttons donât always seem to work properly
Sometimes it shows topics that are days old and sometimes it correctly shows the new stuff.
Might be user error too.
I feel having 2 buttons for this is not particularly useful either. There is a distinction between them but the âlatestâ button is significantly more useful than the other one as it includes the info of the latter.
Distinction between read and unread topics could be better
Itâs there, but making unread topics/posts more distinctive would make browsing clearer at a glance.
Hi! I was surprised by the new forum software/layout.
Quite frankly I thought I was teleported to the Gearbox Official Forums.
But you know what, Crate? Your version is waaay smoother! ^^
I just need to find a way to âControl+Fâ with my browser instead of the Discourse Engine when within a thread.
Thank you kindly.
The contrast between the two should now be more clear!
and I donât have a tablet emulator at the moment to reproduce it on. It appears both on androidâs chrome and opera if thatâs of any help.
You have to go to someones profile to see how many posts theyâve made

You have to update your links manually. As long as the threads havenât been purged due to old age or irrelevance (the threads you listed all still exist) you can find them easily with the search tool. Speaking of which, itâs such an improvement. The old vBulletin search tool was completely useless, this one here actually works
Yeah that was the issue. It would have been a real pain in the ass to find those links with the state the board was in that early morning around 5am on Tues, As I has stated when you visited the forums at that time, they seemed a complete mess. No stickied posts, all just random posts, most of which appeared to have their coding messed up and not closed correctly, not sure thats the right term either.
HOWEVER! I was up at 5am when I normally am not, had taken something to help me sleep AND since I live in Denver Colorado (and a legal resident) was also stoned. Shortly after I wrote that post I realized I should probably stop trying to anaylze websites lol and just go to bed.
Today I see the site and Forums look pretty good. Night and day difference since I last visited. I still canât find the link for the build I am using, but its not a big deal I know the concept and run with it on my own if need be.
thalian
If you know the name/title of the build then you can just do a search for it.
Well, you can at least make a guess.

Not gonna lie, I hate it. its like im staring at a wide screen tv with bars down both sides. Navigating is an absolute pain in the ⊠Maybe im too used to the old ways or im old I dunno.
Im not planning on using special keyboard functions to navigate a website, I just want to click on a topic and go to the page I need, not scroll endlessly hoping to find stuff. Looking for information on the modding section is just too much work, before hand people would say thereâs a link on page 202, and you go and get it, now its constantly asking the same questions because no one has the time or energy to go hunting for specific things. Feel sorry for any modders right now, there only solution is try and fit every relevant answer to the front page and hope they have enough room.
I only play grim dawn because of the mods, vanilla is a bore. So anything that messes up modding to me is just driving me away from the game.
