    Great series of tips.
    That HC death was epic.
    The ones that really kill me most often, in order, are low resistances, standing in pools of things I shouldn't me standing in, low defense ability, health potion cool down.
    My sister of the opinion you should be able to be as much of a potion alcoholic as you want.
    Also the tip explaining how recharges and uptime work is something that needs to be on the things the game doesn't really tell you list. I thought recharge was from activation of a skill, not at the end of the duration of a skill.

    • @Arcadelife1
      @Arcadelife1  2 роки тому +3

      Thanks for the view and the comment. Cooldowns are very confusing in GD because they don’t all work the same way. For example, some skills start to recharge while they’re active, and can even have shorter cooldown periods than their up-time, for example Blood of Dreeg (Occultist skill). Generally, skills that trigger on low health or something (Menhir’s Will, Blast Shield) won’t start recharging until their actual effect runs out. The only way to find out for yourself is to use the skill and watch what happens, or get lucky finding a video that shows you 😜

    I'm still pretty early on, taking a break after beating the Warden. Damage floor is definitely the closest I've gotten to dying so far.
    I entered one cave where I got mobbed by 10 guys right at the door, which was pretty exciting since I hadn't really fought more than 5 guys at once. Figured I'd be fine, I kinda walked face-first into a reliable build. Then my health started _plummeting_ and I switched to dashing around and picking guys off. Wasn't until every mob onscreen was dead and I was still taking damage sometimes that I actually clued in to the floor being dangerous.
    Not the best introduction to damage floors. I'd been wading through all kinds of stuff to no effect, got mobbed by enemies that could feasibly have been doing the damage, and the damaging areas are not delineated very well. There are safe-looking places to stand that still deal damage, or the damage doesn't tick for a second after you've stepped in it, I'm _still_ unsure.

Also, there’s no longer any need to bind toggle skills to keys.

    as a newcomer i have made it to level 19 with two characters, the second one killed krieg
    first one i explored, took my time and experimented (as a warlock)
    i discovered that most spells don't really make a difference, best thing i did was make my occultist auto attack spell into some form of grenade
    but ... thats it
    i have a spell, and on the other caster i have another spell and 2 modifier to my auto attacks
    the spells don't really play very differently and in the end i just absentmindedly hold down the left mouse button with a rifle in hand, running and auto-shooting
    don't get me wrong there are hard parts, where i have to run backwards while shooting
    i guess what i am complaining about is ... lack of variety/complexity/something to engage me?
    i feel like the core gameplay is like flappy bird: do this exact thing while A and do this other exact thing while B (instead of press or nopress depending on what i am going to hit, its run forward or backward while mindlessly attacking and casting skills on clumps, depending on if i am currently outmatched by the number of enemies)
    second time as a reaper (mostly auto attack modifiers) felt a lot better because i just ran straight for the exit instead of exploring everything, so i have overtaken my old character in less than half the time, which definitely fixes the pacing and makes the combat a bit more ... varied? when to press the healing potion button and who to attack in what direction and what to stand in/not stand in at least
    i feel like this is one of those games that gets fun after 50+ hours

    This game is weird, I used attribute points only when I needed some to equip something. I had 40 left after killing the octopus boss on ultimate (I only got the base game).
    I really don't like games with systems and mechanics that are overcomplicated and convoluted for no good reason. Even the game itself couldn't figure out what my dps actually is - I ended up with dual pistol commando that also had a rifle on 2nd set - the game calculated 47k dps for the rifle and "only" 25k for dual pistols yet both felt equally effective.

      In my experience, hardcore deaths described as the result of being ‘too cocky’ are usually due to hesitating to press the Escape button. Also, there’s a type of self-inflicted demise due to hardcore exhaustion/apathy where the player consciously or subconsciously tries to get their character killed.

    Very informative. I always thought Grim Dawn was flexible with classes, weapons, skills and attributes because any type of armor and weapon (caster/heavy/range/off-hand etc) can drop for any class and devotions was also there to help build your character as you like. But it wasn't. There are some skills nobody uses and some classes are worse than others. I have 200 hours in and I feel restricted by class synergies, skills, weapons and damage types. Skills are also very limited and you can't even put all your skills into only one class and max it out. And this is not like mmorpg as one friend tanking, one full on dps and one buffs and heals so if you play with friend, everyone still has to be a solo build and not rely on your friend. Don't stick to one skill because you like it, get ready to change your build a lot until you find one that works.

      I disagree, in terms of there being many build options and all of them work if you do it correctly - or, put another way - two combine classes or masteries have various different ways to be built that will work, but yes, also some that do not - the game currently has the best build options. PoE could be better, but the devs of that game dont actually want that, they want to market that way, and nothing more.

      @travissullivan6575 2 роки тому

      A lot depending on what kind of sword. Soldier building around forcewave can use a 2h sword, though an axe is best for it. For swinging, you'd also have a Shaman doing primal strike. The default attack replacers (Fire strike, cadence, righteous fury, savagery) also work well with a 2h weapon, though for pure damage, 2x 1h weapons is better for them because of how flat damage scales. Blade arc for soldiers is another one that is really good with a 2h weapon (and cadence, their default replacement can be argued to be slightly better for a 2h than 2x 1h)
      If you want to play a big 2h sword, I'd suggest going soldier or Shaman (physical or lightning) and working from there.

    It’s always the games fault when new players die too much. This isn’t a joke, I make games. That’s just bad game design.

    • @Arcadelife1
      @Arcadelife1  2 роки тому

      To some extent I’d agree, but the whole point of games like Grim Dawn is giving the player a proper challenge involving multiple ways of killing you off that, importantly, you can learn to avoid, reduce, or completely nullify. If the game held your hand so much that you could do a full first playthrough without ever dying, it would be heavily and justifiably criticised as being too easy.
      I’m not playing the fanboi card here, but I also don’t think it’s a failing of the developers that the game has so many evil, cheesy ways to catch new players out.
      Thanks for the comment, it’s a great conversation starter 👊🙂

    lol ive been playing this game for 5 years and its always been on hardcore. this game was meant to be played on hardcore there shouldn't even be a softcore setting because there is no seasonal venture like other games. so u can slowly go at your own pace. the best way to do it is to make multiple characters with different builds and move each character threw each level. sure you will loose some but you're hardcore stash will be built up and the reputation recipes will be unlocked so it will get even easier.

      @Wojciech Pordzik you can play at you’re own pace that’s the beauty of this installment, there is no need to ever rush! You can play, read wikki, and experiment. I’ve never understood why people even play soft core to begin with there is no penalty for death and playing sloppy. Every hardcore death will teach you something! things you will never learn in soft core. I don’t have anything against people that play soft core but know they aren’t on the same level I’m on. Because I play for keeps.

    Because there’s no movement skill to avoid mechanics, you just pretty much have to face tank everything and move out of ground effects.

      You can craft movement abilities or travel to forgotten God's and get a basic one very cheap. Some builds have 2-4 movement skills of one form or another.
