⭐ Top 20 Softcore builds, ft. HC approved section from RektbyProtoss! [1.2.0.5] (An Onion)

You know what would make avenger archon reach the top? Use bloodrager for shoulders

And break the full set? Not sure if it’s a good idea.

I’d go with additional 10% attack speed with +2 on savagery. Attack speed and savagery are just too OP at this game.

Please nerf nightblade. Too many in this list :smiley:

You are just making the build MUCH worse by breaking the full set and losing set’s proc. But you do you.

That was already being dealt with in the current game. All the DW Nightblades from the list have a pretty hard time.

Personally I do think RoS BM and Pierce/Bleed Dervish deserve a place in this list.
So yes, Nightblade is still the strongest class imo.
However, rather than nerfing Nightblade, I perfer buffing others.
For example, despite a few specific builds, physical damage overall has fallen behind.

I’m a few hours new into play time but have been looking at lots of vids and reading to figure out what might suit me best when I get used to the game - curious there doesn’t seem to be any demolitionist builds in there unless there are and I’m just not up with the class mixing names yet haha! Are they quite a weak class at the moment? I didnt have a class like that in the game I came from so I’m definitely keen to play it regardless for fun :slight_smile:

A couple of demolitionist builds paired with other classes

I can’t ever remember seeing a solo demolitionist but I’m sure others will prove me wrong and point you in the right direction.
And welcome to Grim Dawn and the forums.
Trust me when I say it’s a hulluva game. :wink:

Haha thanks! Loving it so far, playing on veteran from the beginning and kinda enjoying how much I am dying vs games where you just breeze through all content and get to end game which is kinda the same because by then you’re very geared lol

2nd, 4th, 6th, 16th, 17th and 20th places are all Demos.

Guess I should learn what all the combos are then, lmao thank you! :slight_smile: I’ll check and see if any of them use guns

what does the Korba_final_1.2.zip actually do ? just curious

@mad_lee how is 2H forcewave looking at the moment? I wanna try building a warlord with Obsidian War Cleaver. Do you think that would be pretty good right now?

We are not testing it for our new top20, but it should be decent all in all. Warborn helmet, couple of good greens with “of the wolf/of the eagle” and high enough leech and you should be good to go I think.

How about Primal Strike and Ultos set?

Not competitive enough for our testing

I want to create a Hardcore character with visually appealing skills (I don’t like classes like Warder Savagery or Warlord Blitz). I’m considering Ludrigan Druid, Pyran Shieldbreaker, or Barrelsmith Sorcerer/Elementalist. Which one is currently the most viable?

I think all three you mention are excellent choices
