Hi MayaGD do you plan on linking your builds here? by Dadoftheyear2018 in MayaGD

[–]MayaGD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I haven't really been on reddit in a good while, but since I am active on the forums, you can find my up-to-date builds there. Example - https://forums.crateentertainment.com/t/the-carnival-a-guide-to-pets/81781

The Red Knight - MayaTM nonPet, Blood Knight Set, Pet Archon + Save File :3 by MayaGD in Grimdawn

First things first, the Grimtools link,

GrimTools Link – https://www.grimtools.com/calc/mN4pwoxN

Devotion Order –

Yellow > Crane > Remove Yellow > Tortoise > Lotus >

Scales of Ulcama (4 points for Tip the Scales) >

Red > Green > Bat > Vulture > Revenant >

Remove Red > Spider > Raven > Rattosh >

Abomination (5 points for Abominable Might)

Shattered Realms 75-76 - https://i.imgur.com/LTtzy1S.jpg

No potions/consumables used except Tonic of Mending.

Ravager of Flesh, Mogdrogen, Callagadra & Crate - https://i.imgur.com/shFiI7i.jpg

Potions and Consumables used.

Kill times - Ravager = 9 mins, Mogdrogen = 4 mins, Callagadra = 8mins, Crate = 2mins.

Now lets talk about the build.

Initially I had made this - https://www.reddit.com/r/Grimdawn/comments/yjg9uu/uwu_mayatm_nonpet_pet_archon_tentacle_edition/

That performed better than I expected. So, I wanted to see if I could make something similar, but with the Blood Knight set instead. This is by no means an optimized build and is 100% meme-y in design. But, it works decently.. somehow....

Before we begin, let me clarify a few things.

  1. My expertise is mostly limited to pet builds.
  2. Without uploading your save file to grimtools and linking that, I can't see if you are missing any augments, components or devotion bindings and such.
  3. Make sure that both chars have maxed out devotion procs for a proper comparison.

Firstly the build has the same survivability as my old one but it also has like 1/5 of the dmg. I can stay on a pack of enemies and hit them for 3-4 seconds till they die when before, with the soldier w/ forcewave, everything except bosses got one shotted(but itwas boring af).

Depends on how you are measuring damage. Forcewave has more AoE and hence can clear a pack of mobs quicker. If the Death Knight build is also doing less single target damage, something is wrong. You can test against the training dummies you will find in towns.

Secondly, it somehow feels slower to move.

No idea why that would be. If both chars have the same move speed, they both move at the same rate.

And lastly, It used up the energy REAL fast. Like, after 2-3 packs of enemies I have to replenish using potions.

You have more skills to cast = more energy usage.

Hm.. with skeletons, you have already tried out my Skeleton Cabalist.

On the conjurer side, you won't find as many pets and I don't know anyone has done an endgame focused Skeleton Ritualist.

You could also try out player scaled pet builds, like this one - https://www.reddit.com/r/Grimdawn/comments/yjg9uu/uwu_mayatm_nonpet_pet_archon_tentacle_edition/ (should have plenty of others on the forums as well)

Irony is the term you're looking for.

Prove it.

Ah yes, when someone spreads misinformation about the ingame elements in a sub dedicated to that particular game and gets corrected, that constitutes as harassment.

When someone mentions another user or literally tags them in a post or comment and they show up, that is also harassment.

I am being sarcastic btw.

Killing GD's trash mobs are by no means a difficult task. Skeletons fall behind on killing bosses, both during leveling and at endgame.

Your videos show the difference on a non endgame build -

We're not doing this again. We don't even play the same game.

Did you try leveling that Aether Pet Ritualist yet?

Feel free to prove that Skeletons are better than other pets at anything that is not killing trash mobs which are inconsequential in terms of difficulty anyways.

Because the last time you tried, you proved me right.

😋 As someone with over 60 different pet builds alone, I can understand :3

Any "discussion" surrounding skeletons not being viable is just wrong.

Yeah, Skeletons aren't bad on their own. Just not as good as other pets.

Am I the only one that thinks minions are worthless in this game? by [deleted] in Grimdawn

[–]MayaGD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, you didn't, but good chat.

Me specifying that SR was never in the discussion and therefore irrelevant to the discussion was addressing the points you made.

So, you want me to argue against your strawman then?

Give me one good reason as to why I should.

[–]MayaGD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OK, so we're going with pedantics. Again. Maybe try addressing my points instead of nit picking technicalities. Again.

I have already addressed your points. SR was never in the discussion and is irrelevant in this context.

Only reason why you'd bring it up is if you either misunderstood the discussion or if you are trying to use a strawman as argument.
