I want to create a character that basically teleports/dashes/ss/blitz/etc in the middle of a pack and goes boom, exloding the heck out of everything around him (and by exploding i don’t necessarely mean fire damage, it could be anything, as long as it’s big, flashy, and sufficiently devastating)
i tried a battlemage with blitz and calidor’s tempest (using the blank 75 for the test, but the goal is to actually build the character from lvl1->infinity) but i wasn’t really impressed: instead of a big boom, i got several, fast, not that potent, mana draining fwoosh
any other suggestions?
so to summarize:
getting soldier mainly for the passives/buffs/etc and 1 point blitz, and still searching for that big aoe, big damage, pbaoe nuke
A big explosion? Uhm, this isn’t PoE, this is Grim Dawn. I don’t think what you’re looking for really exists. There are some spells that go “boom,” but everything is on a cool-down except for a few item abilities/class abilities. You’d have to experiment. That’s the best suggestion you’re going to get. Lol.
You can try blitz/shadowstrike into warcry and then … uhhh I dunno, grenado? Tempest would work. Idk, there’s not really too many pbaoe powers that I can think of.
Actually with the Devotion tech update incoming if Maul/Bull Rush get higher chances to proc off Shadow/Spectral/Chaos Strike/Blitz, this could actually turn into quite the playstyle…
Yeah, I don’t mind using separate skills for the effect. The end result is what matters.
While levelling my witch hunter I was using double mark of dreeg, and ss into both marks, with ss linked to tainted one mark linked to sting and another to another devotion, and it was fun.
I had to ditch dreeg and swap devotion links, but the levelling playstyle was fun enough that I wanted to see if I can make a build dedicated to that style
