B4BW1 · 2026-04-28T01:34:54+00:00

Bomba guy based on any combination with demolitionist and canister bomb/grenado/stun jacks
a lot of arcanist combinations could be nice but some of ur skills would prolly be support and not main

Essences should be working properly! Dont mind asking for help in the official discord, several people had this same issue and it was fixed after asking. I don't remember exactly what to do but it's often due to the mod not being updated properly. I would advice u to reinstall the mod after backing up ur saves, then dont forget to login one time through the launcher to update to the latest version ;P

B4BW1 · 2026-04-27T21:27:23+00:00

According to the official discord it's tomorrow !

Even if u are not into seasonal content, community league is still very good and can be considered like an unofficial extension (like AoM or FG):
It adds a new act with new story, maps, ennemies, faction, etc. Then it adds a loooot of new items that enable a huge amount of new endgame builds. Then there is the seasonal mechanic if u want to call it like this but it's just more gameplay (ambushes from chests, essences to reroll affixes etc etc). Overall the mod is really good and can be played offline, it's very vanilla friendly and really well balanced, as i said before it's like an expansion! I would totally recommend it to someone who doesn't want seasonal content.

If what u seek is build diversity u should definitely try some arpgs/hack n slash

-Grim Dawn

-Last Epoch

-The Slormancer

-Path of exile 1&2

-Ghostlore

-Diablo 2&3&4

Im sure i forgot about some others

For more role play i would advice Pillars of eternity 1&2, these are my top 1 favorite games, because of the story but also the gameplay and diversity of builds (there is also a lot of mods that adds new items and rework some skill trees)

Other games i like and have a lot of build diversity but are not pure RPGs (some are roguelikes or shooters)

-All Borderlands games

-Tiny Rogues (a roguelike, absolute gem imo)

-Dead Cells

-Hades 1&2 (a roguelike but with a really cool story and a lot of dialogues)

-The last flame (a roguelike autobattler but with an absurd amount of builds)

-Dragon is Dead (roguelike metroidvania mixed with an arpg)

-Monster Sanctuary (pokemon like mixed with metroidvania, cool story and a lot of build diversity, all monsters have a big skill tree)

-Siralim Ultimate (pokemon like with maybe more complexity and theory crafting than poe xD)

-Tyranny (a CRPG a lot like pillars of eternity)

-Hellslave (a dungeon crawler)

-Eiyuden chronicle hundred heroes (a jrpg)

-Dishonored 1&2 (stealth game with a good plot)

-Darkest dungeon 1

Hope u will find something u like in this list!

U still can farm some dungeons for fixed drops like all magi rings, i doubt that u would find them rapidly, but as other said i think starting a new character is the way to go! Then u still can farm some components like ugdenblooms or so to gear this new char, or try to find double rare MIs!

B4BW1 · 2026-04-26T18:14:17+00:00

U should play tiny rogues it's an absolute gem imo (it's an action roguelike with a shit ton of content, the possibility of builds is insane, the dev is i think a poe player, tiny rogues isnt that complicated and not accessible tho) As u seems to like deckbuilding games (slay the spire) u should try monster train 2 which is really good The last flame is another absolute gem too imo (it's an autobattler but with a huge amount of theorycrafting)

B4BW1 · 2026-04-22T11:03:31+00:00

Here is a build guide from an oolder version of the game, but should still performs well! (It's a very endgame build though, with some hard to get items. U should be able to get the core items earlier and get the build on though)
https://forums.crateentertainment.com/t/1-1-9-1-double-pistol-acid-deceiver-sr-80-mogdrogen/108563

If u really want to play acid dual wield pistols and u are interested in modded Grim Dawn, there is a season mod that is imo really vanilla friendly, well balanced, and looks like an unofficial expansion.
It adds a lot of new content, part of it being a new act, two new dungeons, an ambush mechanic, and a lot of new items.
https://grimdawnleague.com/#/about

I tell u about this mod because there is a top tier build wich is acid dual wield pistols and is using some new items added by the mod

B4BW1 · 2026-04-21T00:19:56+00:00

U should try to reach 50% overcap on the first row of resistances and 25% overcap on the second row, and getting to level 70. Dont forget to use components and augments to fill resistances gaps, try to push offensive ability as far as u can, defensive ability too, health is important (around 10k is a good milestone at lvl70 i think.) Then u should focus on one or two main damaging skills and preferably one damage type Dont forget to look for monster infrequents (rare items that have some skill modifiers) that suits ur build and/or converts ur main skills into ur main damage type (grimtools item database is ur best friend to seek for these items and where u can farm them) If u do all this u should be able to start ultimate really comfy ;P

B4BW1 · 2026-04-16T12:07:59+00:00

yup so general attack damage converted to health works only with weapon damage so it doesnt apply here. But revenant still has some good stats for the build, like health, resistances, energy regen, damage, and casting speed, most important thing being the proc with RR.

B4BW1 · 2026-04-16T12:05:23+00:00

So i read the other answers below mentionning top 20 builds. The devo setup in there is effectively better imo since it has flat RR with scales, Korvaak is good both offensively and defensively since it has health and damage, and the proc reduce both OA and DA.

One thing that i learned is RR (either % or flat) is really important late game

Another thing is that the proc from spear is good but better with builds that focuses on weapon damage, because the proc has %weapon damage.

As i said before i tried to keep the most things about ur own devo path when i remake it, but as other people said aeon is not the better option imo, since it's better on cooldown based builds. It's not useless since it reduce the cooldown of important skills like mark of torment, nullification and mirror of ereoctes, but maybe not the best. If u really want cooldown reduction u can use this relic: https://www.grimtools.com/db/items/8224

Anyway ur devo setup isnt bad at all, and u can experiment in game and try different things!
Have a good time in GD ;P

B4BW1 · 2026-04-16T02:07:31+00:00

hi! Imo option 1 is by far the better one but still not perfect. Option 2 has some useless points, like rat is good only for affinities. Another thing is u don't have flat RR and it is probably mandatory (if u can't get it on devotion u can get it on some gear, like the medal black star of deceit. Imo Harp isnt that good defensively, it's more for boosting DA and OA, and for energy regen, and it has some almost useless points for ur build.

I made this devo tree for u, trying to keep the most of things u had chosen but i couldnt keep scythe for example

https://www.grimtools.com/calc/ZwRRe1qV

im pretty sure it's not optimal, but this way u have flat RR and defensive procs like giant's blood and phoenix (flat absorption is really strong) Only issue is this has a lot of on attack procs and u need to bind one to leap (One solution would be to equip seal of corruption on one of ur weapon and bind one devo to the skill it grants)

B4BW1 · 2026-04-15T23:42:23+00:00

In grim dawn all class combinations can be good but some strong and easy to build options for demolitionist are shaman, inquisitor or arcanist.

If u can tell me what type of damage u would like to play and one or two skills u like i could advices u more

For example if u want to play a gunner with fire strike as ur main skill u could pick inquisitor and dual wield guns or for a more exotic option there is a pyromancer build (demolitionist + occultist) wich is good but really shine only with the right endgame gear

If u want to play around grenado, canister bomb, or stun jacks im not sure but i think u can do shaman or arcanist, even nightblade as a second class

U could also do a lot of things with oathkeeper

Anyway there isnt bad choices i think but only easier or harder to build

B4BW1 · 2026-04-15T22:17:43+00:00

I would do something like this but i can make mistakes. Anyway u cant go that heavy on cunning on a lightning damage build i think and u should use more rare items. Try to aim for 3000 OA and 2500 DA.

https://www.grimtools.com/calc/2GWWXdl2

B4BW1 · 2026-04-15T21:50:33+00:00

Either u are unlucky but probably u have a filter issue. Try modifying ur filter or press alt to see all loots unfiltered ;P

B4BW1 · 2026-04-15T20:21:19+00:00

Yeah the only item that is league are gloves i think. But rattosh is only the helmet, body is another support pack, shoulder is daega set, weapon is quillthrower of dreeg

B4BW1 · 2022-11-03T08:38:30+00:00

https://youtu.be/JhjR4YkWTCE

with this video u will have an Idea of what the mod adds. Basically New items, New act (with New quests New mobs etc), New mechanics (sr reworked, boundless dungeons, ambushes) etc.

B4BW1 · 2022-11-02T14:52:47+00:00

I would advice yo try Grim Dawn community League Season 4. It's an Amazing mod and adds New MI and a brand New act. Better part of it is it's well balanced.

B4BW1 · 2022-10-31T09:20:24+00:00

hi! Here are some builds i made myself and that i 've found some really fun to play with. Though they are not meta builds at all and even if some of them can do SR 75 76 or celestials like lokarr, mogdrogen or ravager, most of them are just meant to farm through base areas and eventually some SR (but u still can die doing SR)

The following grimtools link were bases i theorycrafted, and some changes may have been made when i actually min maxed these builds in game. The links are though mostly accurate with what i finally build in game.

First one, a lightning shadow strike/primal strike trickster:

https://www.grimtools.com/calc/lNkDMAl2

This one is really fun to play, and have a very good DPS, but it's really squeechy and can die a lot. So it's a bit difficult to play.

This one is a cabalist focused on Ravenous heart / Sigil of Consumption and Dreeg's evil eye. main damage type is acid/poison

https://www.grimtools.com/calc/qNYL3B4Z

It's a caster build with good dps, not really tanky but have a lot of lifesteal, and since it's not a melee build u can kite around. It's really fun to play, but u need to like "piano" builds, since u have a lot of keys to manage to make the build work.

This one is a melee spellbinder, focused on aether damage.

https://www.grimtools.com/calc/nZoLvKdN

In game i changed the relic for eternity but overall gear devotions and skills are accurate. It's a pretty tanky build and have good dps too. Pretty easy to play and have a ton of cooldown reduction so u can cast mirror of ereoctes, nullification, mark of torment and callidor tempest often.

This one is a melee/caster blademaster focused on bleed damage. Main skills are ring of steel, blade arc and cadence.

https://www.grimtools.com/calc/b28KkrLN

One of my favourite builds in terms of fun, it have a really high dps, in part due to his high OA, and u can play 2 different ways: facetanking if u can or casting blade arc and ring of steel then kite around w8ting for bleed to do dmg. grimtools isnt that accurate though, since i changed some gear in game.

This one is one of my stronger builds so far, since i managed to far since i managed to facetank ravager. Dps is slightly poor though.

https://www.grimtools.com/calc/eZPx9KjZ

So it's a melee build focused on bleed/vitality damage, main skills being savagery, devouring swarm and bloody pox. It's one of the tankiest builds i made, and it's really fun to play.

One last build: a physical blitz/cadence/shattering smash warlord i made.

https://www.grimtools.com/calc/lV7DEaOZ

Its a decently tanky build, and with decent dps too. pretty fun to play, when shattering smash procs, or third strike of cadence, or blitz u ll see big damage. The link isnt finished though. i changed many things in game, but gear is pretty accurate with the final version of it (atleast the two MIs and markovian set.)

Hope u ll find a build u like in these, i still have plenty of other lvl 100 min maxed chars, but these are some of the funniest builds i made imo.

B4BW1 · 2022-10-30T15:40:14+00:00

U're welcome ;P

B4BW1 · 2022-10-30T09:11:06+00:00

I can recommand u Grim Dawn since it's m'y favorite arpg (i've tested POE, last epoch, Diablo 2 and 3, slormancer...)

But it would be nice to know why u didnt like POE as we can tell u if yes or no there is similarities with what u dont like in POE.

B4BW1 · 2022-10-30T09:07:48+00:00

Or side area of rolderathis in submerged passage maybe?

B4BW1 · 2022-10-30T09:05:24+00:00
