As a new player I would recommend you start on normal, because specifically after the newest patch veteran has really become a difficulty where you need to know what youāre doing
Your choice for HC makes me scratch my head in a similar manner
You can respec pretty much everything in this game so you can choose something and then do something else for your endgame build
I would recommend going for something like Fire Strike as your first main skill, at least youāll need a spammable main skill, FS is an example
Max it before taking any other skills and put one out of 3 points in the mastery
Also donāt dual class until lvl 50
Keep a close eye on your hp and resistances as well
Edit: lol, mala was being helpful at the same time
They nerf and buff things basically all the time. Do not concern your self with such things now. The beginner builds are ā¦ builds for beginners, they will still do what they are āsupposedā to do.
I can only speak for my self, but having spent like 10hours on each guide and then trying to keep them updated for each patch is justā¦ an incredible amount of work for what? basically nothing
Unless there is something severe like āoh this medal now gives this kind of conversion, use this or this medal insteadā
I understand, but skill updates are important when they say they are improving them.
I like the party worked at the guide. When you say Ranged are you referring to crossbows?
Endgame oriented, they are a bit weaker than their melee counterparts but its not like it is impossible to make good ranged char. Just because it is the weakest playstyle does not mean it bad (something has to be strongest/weakest anyway so)
As a beginner, you should focus on what playstyles you think is fun and then take it as far as you can and learn as much about the game as possible. When I started GD, āeveryoneā and their grandma played summoners since they where OP, but I hate summoners so ā¦
In the beginning, you will be limited by your knowledge and item pool. The reason you will not get to Shattered Realm 50 with your first build in 50 hours is not because the build structure is not good, it is because you donāt know how to make builds, playing them and having proper gear for them.
I have played my share of games as well, and written ones with C#, C, and C++. In the end that is not the point.
I have been up late for hours on games too, again no point.
The point is clear. I have wasted your time. Your guide is either going to be updated which it hasnāt.
I am going to read them even though.
If there is a flat damage number on any piece of gear, from passive skills, toggle skills or from devotion node - it will contribute to your weapon damage only i.e. not on spells/skills that lacks weapon damage (like Trozan Skyshard and Judgment).
can you ask the questions you have in the appropriate thread, using the quote function for the relevant section/text? As you are proficient in the C languages, I am sure that you can figure out how a forum works.
Just as with the Purifier guide that Nery made. Why are you asking ME what I mean by ranged?
Respectfully, these are the hardest cases
Where new players ask for help and then find it hard that this is a game you need to learn before you can master it, regardless of your experience
As for buffs and nerfs, well, thereās almost no such thing as dead builds
Small things may change but one of the most fun aspects of this game is that with proper knowledge of the mechanics almost anything can be viable
Endgame minmaxing isnāt a concern for new players, period
