PRM blasting

Disclaimer: I am a dad gamer who is awful at grim dawn.

So I threw this together which i mostly stole from old posts trying to pump prm damage as crazy as I can get it with the buffs from the test patch.

I am curious if others can expand on this to see if its as crazy on the test patch as I think it is?

Edit - i didnt fill out components and augments :man_facepalming: If I get a chance tonight I’ll try and flesh it out more…

what does arcblade do there? - isnt’ that just an expensive “unutilised” stat stick?

Yea to dump the weapon damage into prm

loool my bad, i didn’t see it on the modifiers
was like, “well guess it uses weapon dmg”, mouse over, see no weapon dmg on modifier collection, get confused :sweat_smile:
“why only flat aether/crit/lifesteal”

but yea, the wd mods are indeed there, and i’m just “blind” :sweat:

Hey no worries! Honestly I just love that sword and it kinda worked so i went with it :smiley:

I tried the one handed weps and offhands with prm modifiers but the numbers for prm were lower on all the ones i tried, due to the higher weapon damage on the 2h.

My setup:

Feels comfy.

Arguments abound on whether % WD is really the play for non-2H PRM though.

That looks awesome! How do you handle all the proc devotions?

I’ll check my setup later… Mage Hunter, Level 100 (GD 1.2.1.2) - Grim Dawn Build Calculator

I’m curious, what are the numbers on new resist shred? Does it stack with Ludrigan?

at 22/12 its 35 reduced for 2s. So I don’t think it stacks with Ludrigan?

Let’s go @ceno! Get some :fire: Fashion Dawn and post it up in the DDD Digest! :sunglasses:

On topic: I’ve got a couple PRM builds that I hope got buffed with the patch. I’ll try to test them out.

It does not stack with Ludrigan’s, but Ludrigan’s lasts for 5 seconds which helps since it gives PRM a cooldown of 3 seconds which Distortion alone would not suffice to cover for.

Is dual wielding Arcanum an option? Or does it not count both hands in %WD?

It is, but last time I tried it it wasn’t any better than wand and offhand (damage, tank is p nice with that leech) even with the % weapon damage that was added at the time

Ah ok. For my build damage was about even compared with the offhand I had, but the extra leach is a big win for me. (Just tried it out.)
And the +1 inq is nice.

So this is what I’ve got

Almost forgot the fashion! Almost clean (only illusion on pants & boots)

Want to share? :smiley: See above for my DW version. Regen seems fine for me. Though I don’t think my build can do SR90. It was only so so on SR80.

When the patch hits I will post it.

Has anyone tried any other aether and/or 2h versions of a prm build?
