That looks sick, what's inquisitor's deal supposed to be? I remember some sort of dual pistol specialization but I don't actually know.

Grimtools is updated with the 2 new classes if you want to plan ahead. Also I'm pretty pumped.watho posted:That looks sick, what's inquisitor's deal supposed to be? I remember some sort of dual pistol specialization but I don't actually know. Heavy on elemental/tri-elemental/pierce dual-pistol skills and 'seals' which I assume are like the Occultist's Sigil of Consumption. Stokes fucked around with this message at 02:09 on Sep 19, 2017 |

Release date is early october (not yet set in stone) and the two new masteries as well as the new devotions are available for preview on grimtools.com As was expected from the dev stream screenshots, the Inquisitor is a very strong class for both solo and particularly group play, with many viable combinations, whereas the Necromancer is a garbagecannon for everything but pet builds.

Here's the most obvious melee and ranged builds for Inquisitor. Inquisitor pairs well with Nightblade and Demo because neither has exclusive skills and both have default attack replacers, and you'll want both. (Technically Nightblade doesn't have one, but Shard + the dual wield WPS means it's comparable) Inquisitor + Nightblade melee, featuring 99% enemy cold resist reduction (before your Occultist drops CoF, all of which stacks and can bring negative) and 95% chance to dodge all ranged attacks (this includes almost all AoE attacks) -- 100% if your resident mage runs Shroud of Illusion. http://www.grimtools.com/calc/m23y4EZR Inquisitor + Demolitionist ranged, featuring 82% total WPS of which 62% is AoE. Items are a temporary guess and I assume many will be replaced by new Inquisitor items. 2h chosen over dual wield because it's not clear yet if any 1h weapons will grant the Will of Fate/Vortex of Souls pierce property, which I predict will be bonkers with Fire Strike and Inquisitor WPS. None do currently. http://www.grimtools.com/calc/RZRvoOZD

Just looked at the constellations in Grimtools. Screw the new high-end constellations, tbh. The one I'm most excited about? The Quill. Holy crap, that's gonna hella change my Bomberwoman's whole setup, I think.

Are the Necro summons still temporary?

# ? Sep 25, 2017 14:24 |

They haven't changed in anyway since we all last told you, so yes, the skeletons are temporary but with a summon cooldown lower than their duration. The reason why the devs have done that is the skill can get 6 different skeletons and summons any three of those at once. Also because the skeletons are slow, And you might need them closer?

I was asking because they kept changing in the prerelease stuff and at one point had an upgrade that made them permanent. Oh well, I won't be grabbing the expansion then

I'm not sure I can think of a single tree that is as good at face value as Inquisitor. Word of Renewal is probably the single best (group) buff in the game. Inquisitor's Seal is solid and situationally overpowered (Deathmarked Nightblades). Word of Pain is CoF-light. The two exclusives are both group-friendly. I can't think of a group setup that wouldn't run at least one, preferably two, Inquisitors currently.

So this is me faffing about at work and figuring out skills for a cabalist. http://www.grimtools.com/calc/q2my3W2j I haven't looked at the new constellations much or all the new gear, so any advice there would be nice. I'm really just going on what the tooltips say since I haven't watched any of the dev streams, so if something is better/worse than it looks, I don't know. Really just spitballing a cabalist version of my old warlock summoner, who spat out a ton of wisps and bugs from assorted gear and buffed them via occultist. Wanted to get Manipulation but going 50/50 mastery is tough enough, let alone dumping another 13 points into it.

watho posted:I really don't feel like looking it up because the constellation UI is garbo, what's it do? It's a 4-node elemental constellation that requires 1 green and gives 3/3 green/purple. There hadn't been a great bridge from green to purple prior to this and (I suspect) it'll really help elementalist ranged/caster builds a whole lot. Probably won't need to take something like Hammer on my Bomberwoman just to get those sweet purp points. Elementalist melee will probably go a different route. Here's a hella basic, no-gear non-optimized Bomberperson that's fire/aether oriented: http://www.grimtools.com/calc/d2jaOxN9. Could probably easily do Fire/Lightning and swap in Inquisitor/Shaman instead of Arcanist...or not. Like, it just seems like the tweaks they did to the lower-left of the constellations (Murmur, Wretch, Quill; where I tend to spend most my time) are going to massively support some of my favorite builds. I have a hunch the upper-right of the constellations also got tweaked, too, but I don't spend as much time over there. Also, while a whole lot less experienced with the game than Mash (with 0 multiplayer time), I concur with what they're saying about Inquisitor. poo poo's ridiculous unless you're really trying to avoid all elemental damage...and even then it seems like it still has decent nodes.

It took me a while to find the info, but for those of us who backed this way back in the day at a high enough tier, apparently expansion keys will be distributed through humble bundle. It doesn't seem to be stickied anywhere on the Grim Dawn forums. I'd forgotten that the keys were even distributed like that in the first place.

I'm also curious about this type of build. Pet builds aren't really my thing, but it looks like there are other options in the necro tree. Haven't dug into it much (frankly haven't played GD in months, been waiting for the expansion), hopefully it pans out.

Yawgmoth posted:This sounds pretty fun and a bit like what I do with my blademaster but with less charging about the world. Wanna drop a grimtools link and we can discuss it? Vitality Decay Death Knight This is just a very basic concept of the build with no devotions. I don't know what kind of gear will support it, whether there will be anything that supports bleed + vitality decay which could push the build in a different direction, or whether vitality decay is even a worthwhile concept in the expansion at all. One major weakness is that there is no real devotion proc that supports the build other than the new tier 3 devotion with -vitality resistance. Compared with a poison witchblade, which has fairly weak gear support, but can get massive poison explosions from Abomination, this build might really lack ways to apply vitality decay other than directly from its skills, which might not be enough. I stopped at 32 Soldier, but I'm not sure if maxing Soul Harvest is worth it. I could leave it at one point and squeeze a few points into Scars of Battle instead, which might be better. Also not sure whether the massive single target vitality decay from Reap Spirit would be worth considering in spite of the fact that the aether damage and summon would likely be useless.

I always found that it barely mattered what you "specced into" as far as class goes, because your build is more determined by what equipment you put on. Similarly, Constellations (available to every class) always seemed to have a greater effect than the base class skill trees, as well. Therefore...the best choice is to choose two classes that give you the class name you want. IE: Necromancer-Inquisitor is going to be the best combination in the expansion because then you're called an "Apostate" http://www.grimdawn.com/guide/character/masteries.php

I wanted to play this game some again, but I'll guess I'll wait for the expansion since it's less than a month out. Would necro be worth including on a poison build? Occultist/Necro I guess. Poison caster is the next thing I want to try.Half-wit posted:I always found that it barely mattered what you "specced into" as far as class goes, because your build is more determined by what equipment you put on.
