Fidero Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 (edited) I haven't been past Defiance Bay yet, as I just can't make up my mind there. The classes I find the most interesting from a concept POV are the Druids, Ciphers (because mind readers) and Chanters. But still as a frontliner Now, my most important questions are: Which of these 3 stays strong until late in both games while focusing on the more talkative stats (Res/Int/Per and maybe Mig)? From what I've read here, Chanters seem to be the best candidate for that, as I can ignore Dex and pump the other stats even more. On the other hand which of these 3 is the strongest for a constantly switching party composition? Because I want to see as much of the games as possible in one go, I would like to switch party members regularly. As far as MCing goes, I would prefer it to be only between those 3, unless one combo with another class is just so far above these 3 xD Edited June 26, 2021 by Fidero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaylon Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 All of them work with any party composition in PoE1/PoE2. However in PoE2 multiclassing them gives better results. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haplok Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Personally I'm fond of Ciphers. Definitely multiclass (and subclass) in PoE2, though. YMMV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marigoldran Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Chanter/Paladin (herald- super tank) and Cipher/Monk (Damage) both synergize well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
