      One thing seems to be missing from your video. It is a very useful tool for planning a build. It is call Grim Dawn tools. Planning out a build with it will make a huge difference in your build. Otherwise your stats might be all over the place if you don't use the planner. You can still play the game using what you find. The only thing is that you know what stats you are after. You will know what components and augments are needed. Also having the end game gear that you are looking for is a good idea because it gives you a reason to keep playing.
      While I agree to play the game your own way. I do disagree that you never use a build guide. There are some really good build guides that will teach you how to make a good build for Grim Dawn. Also if you want to chase after meta builds then a build guide is the way to go to find the meta builds faster. That is simply because the game has been out more than long enough for the players to find all of the meta builds in the game. The only time you might be able to find a meta build on your own is if you are great at theorycrafting in games like this one. If you put in the time and do all of the math yourself you can find the meta builds on your own. But still I say even then it is faster to look for meta build guides because they have already been found.

    Grim Dawn is the greatest ARPG of all time. I don't even like ARPGs that much, and I LOVE Grim Dawn. That should tell you something.

    Really nice guide for beginners, well done. I just want to address an issue I found in the Farming Items and Tips.
    That's not how Epic and Legendary items drop. Yes, there are some rare blues or purples that specifically drop from a boss, but like 99% of them are just world drop, no rules.
    What you described applies to Monster Infrequents though (like your weapon), which you can target-farm on a specific boss, miniboss or just an area for an enemy type. I suggest to check the Grim Tools' item database when in doubt: if nothing is specified, it's just a random drop.
    I agree with you about mods, but I highly recommend getting Rainbow Filter from the get go. It doesn't change anything in the game, it just color-codes items and skills tooltips making them SO much easier to read and navigate (+100% fire damage is orange, 250 poison damage is green and so on..)

    If you go past the flooded passage entrance, like.. finish the bridge
    Go to the far right and kill the cultist leader over there, he has a chance to drop "Frizzlich's Utility Pack" a blue rarity belt
    I recommend it to anybody going through the first playthrough because it
    Adds heath and energy regen by 20+%
    Adds offensive and defensive ability points by 20+
    Adds 2 points to 4 seperate skills
    Blood of Dreeg, Flame Touched, Mogdrogen's Pact, and Field Command
    Its very useful for starting out, and helps with tanking some of the bosses around that area.

      @SergeyRyzhankov Рік тому +5

      ​@@johnysimps1191 Yes, well to be more correct Grim Dawn is an APRG, action rpg, same genre as Diablo, Titan Quest, Tourchlight, Path of Exile and so on. Grim Dawn may seem a bit complicated at first but you will learn fast enought, just trust in the process and have fun, you won't regret it, there are so many different builds and all are playable, you choose 2 different masteries out of 9 and combine for a unique class, all depents on your style and preference, bottom line - it is lots of fun ;)

    I've seen many videos in order to know if this game is worth playing in 2023 or not, but not one does a better job than this one.
    He answered questions I didn't know I had or didn't know how to ask properly with specific details. And I've played a lot of Arpgs, that's why I'm picky and not easily swayed into playing another one.
    I enjoyed everything I heard, it seems like the game I'm looking for but never found.
    Great stuff, well done !

      Best ARPG yet. Also, it got a HUGE PATCH in December 2023, which adds a lot Of quality Of life stuff. And now all The charecters have dash from a get go. Also, DLC is coming in I believe first half Of 2024.
      As for The quality Of The game: it has all The Best from The genre.
      Totally worth all The money and even more. Challenge run potential is also decent.

    General VERY USEFUL tip if you have extra mouse buttons
    Tldr: bind "toggle alternate hotbar" to q so you can actually reach it easily
    Bind switch weapons to N, so you dont click it on accident. Just use the ui to switch weapons, or remember N as "next weapon"
    You can also bind middle mouse click to qb 6
    Bind scroll up to qb 7
    Bind scroll down to qb 8
    If you have extra mouse buttons:
    Bind mouse button 4 to qb 9
    And bind mouse button 5 to qb 0
    Now, your hand doesnt move at all. Your sole focus with your right hand is hotbar 1-5/6
    6/7-0 Are on your mouse.
    He touches on this briefly, but just because the main UI doesnt have a bind spot for extra mouse buttons, that doesnt mean you cant use them. Just keybind them to 9 and 0 hotbar locations, or anything around there. Much easier to solely focus on about 1-6 hotbar, as youll end up moving your hand otherwise
    This means 9 and 0 are pretty useless in big battles
    So, bind your mouse buttons to them instead
    You can also bind your scroll wheel middle mouse button to one, too. Just bind Camera rotate to something like "delete" and now you have another mouse button for binding an attack to

It's so obscure that you have to mouse over the icon next to the combine button and I don't think it's ever explained in-game. Now I feel really dumb... I always craft my shiz in Devil's Crossing for nostalgia reasons haha

  • @CyberBeep_kenshi

    Something i forgot myself, Gather a starting equipment set for the first 10 levels or so.
    Btw my strongest character By Far is a warder (soldier shaman) that is based on 2 things: hitpoints and reflection. Does need proper equipment. But currently 43.000 hp and 451.000 reflect damage record. Enemies kill themselves attacking you. and add stuff that delays their attacks. one example is a belt that does wildgrowth. Do expect slow fights. but he just won't die :-) so you can get everywhere and no stress.

  • @CyberBeep_kenshi
    @CyberBeep_kenshi 2 місяці тому

    I love this game, 1000+ hours, still playing.
    probably will be said in the clip, but the easiest thing is to store the compenents in the shared storage.
    If you want a character to farm, have a strong 1st character, a basic Sword and board Warder is fine Hard to kill.
    Blitz is one of these 1 point wonders.
    for starters, don't go over max points in skills, you can reset points downwards when you get gear that adds points. Some skills can be maxed, like firestrike as default attack. Some skills aren't worth it. so lowwr them to i.e. 12 / 12 and use the points somewhere else.
    Lastly, make a focussed build. I.e. build a purifier (awesome) that does 2 pistols, fire damage. Don't mix weapon damage, or add stuff that doesn't make sense.
    Bonus: always add points in physical. and ONLY add spirit etc. if its needed for equipment. and later on reset.

    Also, Smash & Grab Awakened is a mod that just reworks levelling + loot drops.
    Dont use it first playthrough, like he says
    But it is very very useful for running through other playthroughs. It makes the game a lot more palpable. Doesnt add anything, only tweaks numbers
    I love smash and grab

    I'm 50 level of a soldier and 1 level of arcanist... (the last one was a mistake, but I cannot revert it since I occasionally insisted 1 point into the shaman, I wanted oath keeper...). I hope this combination would also not very bad...
    my soldier has a force wave maxed, and there is only one skill in shaman that can reinforce the force wave (with electrical damage), others don't stack...

    Grim dawn is just so good. it has the best atmosphere compared to other arpg.
    when I look at EVERY single video game licence the same trend appears. whether it's diablo, elder scrolls stop being really good after daggerfall, pokemon power releasing trash every year since it went 3D, etcc etc
    The quality of games went downward as the technology progresses.

    to be honest , truth is, you can get blueprints of stuff you already have, it will show you at the bottom of the window that , "you allready learned this" or something of the sort, and you can sell the blueprint. in other words if you get a double of a certain blueprint. you can still sell it.

    what can you compare grim dawn to? Is it more like D3, D4 or PoE?
    Is it worth my money? i mean 70€ will get me ALL the content that Grim Dawn has to offer.
    Do I need it all? Can I experience good endgame with just the base game? or is it like D3 where i need the Reaper of Souls DLC to unlock the real endgame?
    The last time i spent 70€ for an ARPG blizzard scammed me :)

    • @yup873

      D4 was a disappointment but grim dawn is worth your $$$ I haven’t played D4 but I have D2 D3 and Poe I have hundreds of hours in all those. I have over 1000 hours in grim dawn between xbox and mostly PC. Grim Dawn is better then any Diablo in my and many’s opinion. Hope that helped bud.😊

      With any loot based game it is really.. core knowledge to understand where the item you want WILL drop once you're deep into it.
      Yeah, pool loot exists in most loot games.
      However, that's not what he was saying
      He's telling people to learn where the Items ORIGINALLY drop.. much easier to loot them that way

    gave a few genuine tries but the game isnt for me, i hate how slow the progression feels because of the "class levels" you gotta pump. and im gonna be honest, dumping 4+ straight levels just so i can unlock another skill feels really bad.
    also, hated how bland the skills feel. specially the auto attack ones.

    What is that tab things in the inventory? I don’t think I have that, or maybe I can’t find it.
