Grim Dawn Gameplay Discussion

im looking for something that has high clear speed, naturally tanky to the point where i don’t have to be worried about dying unless i screw up really bad, and is fun but simple to play. not pet builds or things that need to manage like 8 different keybinds. also id prefer to play self found and i have nothing to start with so it would have to be strong self found (i dont mind farming certain bosses for epics but if it requires a bunch of very rare/specific things just to function its no good)

ive never made it past 40 in this game, havent played since like b27 so im out of the loop. is there anything out there that fits this criteria? i may have overly high standards since im used to the playstyles that are possible in path of exile and it seems that this game just has nowhere near the fast pacedness but i thought id ask.

the build i enjoyed most since i downloaded the game was a phantasmal blades character because it could nuke things from a distance and sustain most things enough to face tank all but some of the really scary bosses, but from what ive read PB isnt that good in the higher difficulties compared to other stuff.

This is the place to look for builds:

If you want a build that doesn’t need super rare gear, look for ones with a low g_ number.

Vitality conjurer, many active skills just literally faceroll all the way through the game

Perhaps you want too much. There is a good number of builds that are strong and tanky, but also require some gear. Retaliation builds are very tanky but also as boring to play as summoners.

Maybe you can build a callidor/devastation arcanist. Build it as a battlemage to tank. There is a guide by Most. It also needs some gear though advertised as self-found.
