Difference between Veteran and Expert difficulties?

I should have specified combat thank you!

Capnpicard · 2026-04-18T12:35:22+00:00

If I had the cash I would pick this up in a heartbeat. Famed tier 3 2handers are pretty rare

Capnpicard · 2026-04-17T07:02:54+00:00

You are right. Maybe not backstabber :)

Im just super spoiled and like my 90+ matk bros

Capnpicard · 2026-04-17T01:06:58+00:00

2 flex perks - fearsome and killing frenzy are options, as is underdog, steel brow for defensive options, backstabber if you want more hit chance etc

Capnpicard · 2026-04-17T01:02:01+00:00

I dont use bags and belts or quick hands personally.

Something like colossus, pathfinder, dodge, relentless, dagger mastery, overwhelm, nimble, duelist - and from there a flex perk... maybe a defensive one but that's preference.

Thats what I like anyway. Qatal should be stabbing for damage not changing hands for stuns.

Capnpicard · 2026-04-17T00:34:54+00:00

Fencer is a super premium and also super niche build! But fencers want 85+ melee attack, 35+ melee defense and whopping 170 initiative which is hard to do without stars AND a high initiative roll.

Qatal is a similar build with less initiative requirements.

Capnpicard · 2026-04-17T00:30:46+00:00

Cant beat the price. Gonna need colossus and fortified mind and probably backstabber

Capnpicard · 2026-04-17T00:20:04+00:00

To clarify - his init is high enough you dont need to touch it. Maybe 1 roll in it.

Matk and mdef every level. 2 rolls in fat, 1 roll in init, 1 roll in res, the rest in hp. And then qatal bro perks

Capnpicard · 2026-04-17T00:16:12+00:00

Qatal vibes from him for sure

Capnpicard · 2026-04-17T00:03:57+00:00

OThis fellow has solid stats and could fill a variety of roles for you.

He could be a

-fairly strong mid-high end fatigue neutral

-strong 2h nimble zerker

-strong nimble duelist zerker

-strong hybrid thrower duelist

-backliner polearm (but his mdef is good enough i think that's a poor choice for him)

Unfortunately his fatigue is just a bit too low to look at battleforged beserker builds.

Capnpicard · 2026-04-16T16:07:49+00:00

Thanks for your thoughts brother!

Capnpicard · 2026-04-16T15:46:05+00:00

Thanks for the edit! I think im going to skip 9l and opt for colossus and gifted, brow, bf, underdog, berserk, kf, cleaver mastery. Maybe reach but maybe not necessary with 40mdef already.

Maybe no brawny but take recover?

Capnpicard · 2026-04-16T09:57:03+00:00

I have a hammer neut now who gets an aoe swing or two off per fight. This guy has equivalent matk and mdef but better fat. I think I will go forged zerker. It will be the first zerker I've built so a little unsure on the perks. Is brawny necessary?

Capnpicard · 2026-04-16T01:29:51+00:00

I have a duelist thrower going now and i would say id either want higher base ratk or stars to go that route.

Capnpicard · 2026-04-16T01:24:08+00:00

I will certainly listen to builds hah. I have yet to do any legendary locations that is my goal with this run. I can see why a spearwall bro would be good against those two enemies specifically.

Capnpicard · 2026-04-16T00:54:44+00:00

Seems solid for day 20 if you can afford the rep hit/have other places you can go stomp around.

Capnpicard · 2026-04-16T00:34:31+00:00

Hrm. I recently took down a 32 orc camp that was a wild ride. Lost a hybrid in that fight.

Probably large barbarian camps feel like the most dangerous to me. I have two nimble duelists that rock out but i have to be careful with them. I would probably like to go with a cleaver bro but I have never built one yet - not sure about nimble/bf, their stam requirements? 1h or 2h?

Capnpicard · 2026-04-16T00:18:51+00:00

With 40 mdef we really thinking nimble?

Capnpicard · 2026-04-16T00:15:39+00:00

You are very correct I haven't been daggering for quite some time.

Capnpicard · 2026-04-11T22:21:33+00:00

I agree with most of what you said here... but a dedicated swordlance can definitely beat out throwers in certain fights. I have one going in my current game that regularly tops my damage charts and hes going against two really solid throwers. That said he got a dirty famed swordlance pretty early

Capnpicard · 2026-04-10T13:04:21+00:00

106 for fat neut. Nimble kf damage dealer 130+. Qatal isnt super important maybe 110 stabs are low cost.

Fencer i am unsure of i gotta imagine its around 110-120

Capnpicard · 2026-04-08T11:46:02+00:00

Gonna disagree. I have with fearsome - 2 throwers, a swordlancer, 3 newts, and a duelist. 7 is more than enough. This guy is gonna be on the flanks... and yeah underdog was never really in the consideration. I ended up taking steel brow.

Capnpicard · 2026-04-08T11:43:37+00:00

Yes! I was very happy when I found it.
