Requirements:

Minimum recommended PC system requirements to play this Mod:

  • AMD Ryzen 5 2600 or equivalent.
  • GTX 1060 6 GB or equivalent.
  • 16 GB Ram.

Things to do for better performance:

  • GD 64 bits version.
  • Deferred Rendering enabled.
  • V-Sync and Triple Buffer disabled.
  • Windowed (Borderless).
  • “GD CPU Affinity.exe” or “[Tool] Core Switcher - Force GD to use all cores equally” (it’s on the GD forums).
  • Select Grim Dawn on your NVIDIA control panel and enable Threaded Optimization, and disable V-Sync and Triple Buffer. You should also disable these two ingame.

-------------------------------

Mod is still under development. Expect a lot new things, changes/updates.

Grim Dawn is characterized for being slow paced when it comes to clear maps. Since I’m trying to make it more like Path of Exile which the clear speed can be really high depending on your choices, you can expect that this mod be also that way.

Any suggestions/ideas to improve the mod are welcome.

Don’t hesitate to share your feedback.

You need to have activated Gore in Options menu and have high critical chance or a decent amount of dmg (not sure which one procs the gib fx, it says “when overkilling”, so I think is when you got a lot of dmg) for this: You will now be able to melt enemies just like in PoE. There is definitely a better performance when killing big packs of mobs due to not loading many regular enemy death animations. You just make them disappear instantly (most of them). Of course there is still blood effects and particles.
    I also reduced dissolve time of many enemy types.

Version 0.9.9b

  • Added two new cosmetics (made by okami29) craftable at the blacksmith in Devil’s Crossing: Pride Wings and Aion Wings.

Version 0.9.9

  • Added 3 cosmetics (made by okami29) craftable at the blacksmith in Devil’s Crossing: Wings of Hope, Angelic Wings and Trag’Oul Wings.
  • Decreased amount of loot drop as it was filling the entire screen and making hard to see anything else than loot. This happened specially when you increased Hero monsters density. Now you will be encourage to increase (difficulty) Hero density if you want more and better loot.
  • Added the following items to Autopickup: Slithnecklace (quest item), constitution potions and shattered realm essences. Now the screen will feel much cleaner without seeing all those drops.
  • Small fixes.

Version 0.9.8c

  • Small fixes (but important ones).

Version 0.9.8b

  • Small fixes.

Version 0.9.8

  • Now you can manually adjust Mob Density and Hero Enemy Density in game (increase or decrease), thanks to Grimmest mod. See more info about it in [MOD] Grimmest FG 1.0

Normal enemies and Hero enemy density are still the same (from my modification), if you wanna adjust density (increase/decrease or switch off grimmest settings) you will have to spawn and talk to Zeke (npc) by using Plutonium Nyborg, it’s in your inventory.

  • Added Autopickup (from Quickloot mod) for materials, consumables, scraps, dynamites. Not for components (I don’t like filling my inventory with those).

Known issues with autopickup: It will always pick up one item (quantity). For example if you have 50 scraps and you drop them all on the ground, it will automatically be placed in your inventory but only 1 and the rest will be deleted. So be careful.

  • Removed Soulbound from Augments: Now can be placed in stash.
  • Skills granted by items (these don’t do much damage but adds cool effects on hits):
  • Cold Burst (new skill): 5 meters AOE. A chilling surge erupts beneath your foes (it procs with % Chance on hit). These are the items that have this skill: Boots of Primordial Rage, Mythical Boots of Primordial Rage, Panetti’s Replicating Wand, Mythical Panetti’s Replicating Wand, Soulare’s Helm, Mythical Soulare’s Helm.
  • Flame Patch: 5 meters AOE with new visual effect. You ignite the very ground your foes stand upon (it procs with % Chance on hit). These are the items that have this skill: Molten Walkers (Empowered and Mythical), Gauntlets of Ignaffar (Legendary and Mythical Legendary), Alakrian’s Invoker, Alakrian’s Invoker (Empowered and Mythical), Flames of Wrath (Legendary and Mythical Legendary), Band of the Eternal Pyre (Legendary and Mythical Legendary).
    • Inquisitor (mastery):
      Word of Renewal: Increased active duration to 9.999 seconds.
    • Added 30 more points to each mastery. After 50 it will give you movement speed to a maximum of 25%.
    • Increased Player Run Speed Cap Max to 350%.

Version 0.9.7

  • Nightblade (mastery):
    Pneumatic Burst: Restored original visual effect. Added an unlockable new visual effect at level 40. Changed skill class, now it must be toggled to maintain its effect. Therefore skill active duration has been removed.
  • Oathkeeper (mastery):
    Ascension: Changed skill class, now it must be toggled to maintain its effect. Therefore skill active duration has been removed.
  • Skill Description Text:
    Pneumatic Burst: Added “This ability must be toggled to maintain its effect.”
    Ascension: Added “This ability must be toggled to maintain its effect.”
    Safeguard: Added “This is a net buff.”
  • Slightly reduced mana cost of most skill runes.
  • Small fixes to some skill values.

Version 0.9.6

  • Bigger stash from Stasher mod made by tt300.
  • Enemies skills:
    Mirror of Ereoctes: Reduced time duration and damage absortion percent (was missing one mob type in previous version). Fixed now.
  • Skills granted by items did/do have cooldowns, it wasn’t necessary to change anything, so I restored them to vanilla values.

Version 0.9.5b

  • Small fixes to some skills values.

Version 0.9.5

  • Shattered Realm: Fixed some progress bar gain values at low shards.
  • Soldier (mastery):

    Shaman (mastery):
    Brute Force: Removed weapon type requirement text.
    Feral Hunger: Removed weapon type requirement text.
    Upheaval: Removed weapon type requirement text.
    Primal Strike: Removed weapon type requirement text.
    Oathkeeper (mastery):
    Safeguard: Removed weapon type requirement text.
  • Devotion skills:
    Arcane barrier: Changed visual effect to a non annoying one.
    Turtle Shell: Changed visual effect to a non annoying one.
  • Skill granted by items:
    Energy shield: Changed visual effect to a non annoying one.
  • Enemies skills:
    Mirror of Ereoctes: Reduced time duration and damage absortion percent.
  • Slightly increased the amount of xp needed per level. It mainly affects at low levels, it gets faster at higher levels.
  • Increased XP penalty on death.
  • Reduced Redemption Multiplier to 0.1 (down from 0.5). So you will get 10% of xp loss instead of 50% when clicking your grave.

Version 0.9.4b

  • Shattered Realm: Fixed a bug where sometimes you couldn’t enter to the portal to proceed to the next map.
  • Small fixes to some skill values.

    Removed Exclusive Skill restriction. Increased level cap max of some skills.
  • Arcanist (mastery):
    Panetti’s Replicating Missile: I had to take out the arcane blast effect due to very low fps. Maybe I’ll find a better one later.
  • Occultist (mastery):
    Bloody Pox: Added small radius red nova visual effect.
  • Small fixes to some skills values.

Version 0.9.3

  • The true form of Kinetic Blast (with arcane herald effect) is finally here!
    Panetti’s Replicating Missile will draw upon the energy of the target itself to create blasts of pure arcane energies.
  • Arcanist (mastery):
    Panetti’s Replicating Missile: To get the new effect you must allocate a minimum of 2 points into Proliferation (linked passive skill). This is just a visual effect. Sadly because of the old game engine, expect fps drops when shooting to a very large pack of mobs, especially in the Shattered Realm.
  • Small fixes to some skills values.
  • Reduced level requirement for all Epic Augments that gives resistances to Armors to level 50 (down from 70) and level 70 (down from 90).
  • After completing the quest “Help Barnabas with the Water Pump” in Devil’s Crossing, you will get a low tier Rune (Emblem of the Riftstalker). May be a nice addition give Rune rewards after completing some quests, just like Path of Exile gives gem rewards after certains missions.

Version 0.9.2

  • Due to cooldown removal, all devotion auras and most item granted skills that have damage absorption and life percent restored could proc all the time, making your character immortal in most situations. So I lower the values of all those skills. I didn’t do an extense test, so would be nice some feedback. Let me know how it feels with the new values.
  • Fixed some faction points values.
  • Increased mana cost of all rune skills.
  • Oathkeeper (mastery):
    Safeguard: Removed shield requirement. Still shows text, but is just text.
  • Arcanist (mastery):
    Panetti’s Replicating Missile: Increased mana cost per level. Is a powerfull skill, it requires lot of mana. You will have to get regen and leech.

Version 0.9.1c

  • Small fixes.

  • Version 0.9.1b

    • Small fixes.

Version 0.9.1

Terrific job. I’m loving the Kinetic Blast so far. But I don’t know why the level cap has to be raised up to 34? It’s a lot more the normal 16.
I’m very much looking forward to find the item to try out Herald of Ice

18

Balance. Level 34 does not mean the dmg is higher than the normal level 16 dmg.

19

How did I miss this lol

just quit delirium league, time for some PoGD

xD

I think it doesn’t make sense to be like that.
For balancing, I think we should make it weak to single target. So you’re forced to max other skills to kill boss, Spark for example. This also makes gameplay more interesting because you alternating between 2 skills.
I played Cold Magic Missile Wizard (D3 mods), the skill is extremely good at single target, and solid clearspeed. I only use it and to be honest, it starts getting boring from lvl 60, cos I haved used it the entire time.
Max cap lvl 16 KB with best clearspeed and terrible single target, in my opinion, will be better.

Hey Sir. The stash is too big (bigger than the screen), so on the left side I cannot put or pick up any items in there :frowning: My current resolution is 1080p btw.
