Hey man, thanks for doing these guides, helping new players and keeping the community alive and healthy. You're doing excellent work and I appreciate it.
Thank you for these guides! I just picked up the game on the steam sale and its a bit overwhelming but very intriguing. I love the atmosphere and depth of the game and I cant wait to learn more about it. Cheers!
Had the game for a while. Just now really starting to like it. Playing a Soldier shockwave build. Level 35. Wondering what you would recommend as my secondary class to compliment it as I continue 😉
Could you explain why certain skills are bad? Such as panetti’s replicating missile or drain essence? I’ve been watching a lot of your videos and I can’t seem to find an explanation on why it’s bad for leveling. I’m pretty new to this game so it’s not very obvious to me the reasons why certain things are bad yet. Just wanted to understand the veteran player’s thought process. Thanks for making all these amazing videos!
Panetti's needs a ton of skill points to deal decent damage. It's usually better to just use searing ember/flintcore bolt components and spam fireballs instead. For AoE nothing beats olexra's flash freeze early on. Drain Essence is slightly better but also here it tends to feel like it drains your energy quicker than the enemie's life where as skeletons just run around and kill stuff while you can once again spam fireballs instead. This is at least true until lvl ~35ish. Once you have actual items supporting panetti's/drain essence and enough skill points to max out their nodes, you can switch to panetti's/drain essence...or just play trozan' sky shard or albrecht's aether ray as an arcanist or ravenous earth or bone harvest instead and deal more DPS.
I have what might be a stupid question. Sometimes when you talking about skills to use for levelling you point to skills quite far down the tree. Do you suggest just sticking with basic attack and putting points into the mastery until getting to those later skills?
You have to pretty much always start out with a skill that you either unlock at 1 or 5 mastery points, but you can respec into better leveling skills that you get later into the tree. A classic example would be a necromancer caster that needs to use raise skeletons until he can get to ravenous earth. A necro like that would use skeletons for the first ~10 levels and then switch to ravenous earth at lvl 10. Keep in mind you can respec all skill points at the spirit guide.
Would be cool to have an in depth guide of when to actually put points into your secondary mastery, cause most videos when lvling only just stay on one class for like 70 lvls
Haven't seen many people play single mastery for longer than the first 50 lvls. Generally speaking I would advise to first max out your first mastery to either get to an exclusive aura or to get to execution (dw melee nightblades) or brimstone (ranged demos), which should be around lvl 35-40ish. So generally you start investing into your 2nd mastery after lvl 35-40. There are some exceptions though like e.g. on a vitality conjurer you wanna get shaman first for devouring swarm and then save points to start working on bloody pox from occultist at lvl 10.
