Dorftek Posted December 1, 2017 Posted December 1, 2017 This build still viable? Have u tried soloing on this build?
Boeroer Posted December 1, 2017 Author Posted December 1, 2017 Mechanics that concern this build haven't changed, so it still should be viable. I did not try to solo with this build. It's build like a glass cannon and that's not good for a solo run. When soloing with a rogue I would always use Shadowing Beyond. 1 Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
Dorftek Posted December 1, 2017 Posted December 1, 2017 Great! Yeah id change the build a bit, made a similar build 1.5 years ago by stacking spell holding items on my rogue with a shield. Devastating dmg while still being able to tank, tho he was supported by a group to stack debuffs on enemies. Not sure how it would work while soloing. I am going to try it out. Got bored with the monk, such a boring class
Petey488 Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 Sorry for posting in an old post, but can you possible make a recommendation on the stats if a person did not like to min max? Thanks!
Boeroer Posted February 13, 2018 Author Posted February 13, 2018 How low is ok for you? Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
Petey488 Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 Hmmm, I guess I have a hard time justifying anything below an 8.

El Kabong Posted February 16, 2018 Posted February 16, 2018 Hello! Ive been trying to make this build for a long time, but I’m kinda thorn between this and a wizard per se. My main thing is: I want the character to have nice mental stats for RP purposes. In this regard what do you think it would be better, from an RP and fun points of view: this guy or your Zeblastian?
Boeroer Posted February 16, 2018 Author Posted February 16, 2018 Hmm, from a fun point of view? Hard to say. Both will drop down pretty quickly once targeted, so this can be frustrating. From lvl 11 on this is pure fun - especially with a fellow wizard who can provide afflictions. Spell binding gear and scrolls will be rare in the early game, so the beginning will be more rough. But taking Prestidigitator's Missiles and Penetrating Shot early is nice. Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
l_orion_l Posted November 30, 2018 Posted November 30, 2018 Hi! Hate to bring up an old thread but I can't get over the idea of this build. Is it a crazy idea to try and tank this build? I love the idea of a mechanics specialist on the front line who wants to do nothing more then sit there "Riposte"ing and casting scrolls. As far as stats I don't think might would be overly important because the base damage of scrolls is pretty good. Also I can't seem to dump any stats here either because all are important. I'm going to try and take a stab at this for stats but feel free and chime in and call me crazy here. MIG: 10 CON: 14 DEX: 10 PER: 14INT: 14RES: 14
Boeroer Posted December 1, 2018 Author Posted December 1, 2018 Tanking with a rogue is tough in the early game. Later on it's okish. As shield aim for Badgradr's Barricade in Durgan's Battery. Perfect shield for Riposting. I would also focus on items with spell bindings. Look at Bitter it, Flames of Faîr Rhian, the White Crest and so on. Then you don't need that many scrolls all the time.

lishuai Posted June 7, 2020 Posted June 7, 2020 Hi~Boeroer This build is so impressive, does Scion of Flame or Heart of the Storm can improves the scrolls(Crackling Bolts,Fireball,etc ) damage?
Boeroer Posted June 7, 2020 Author Posted June 7, 2020 (edited) Hi @lishuai! Thank you. I guess so - can't really confirm 100% since a significant amount of time passed since I played PoE. But since those talents work with all elemental damage (except DoTs) it should work, yes. Edited June 7, 2020 by Boeroer 1 Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
GrumpyChewbacca Posted September 26, 2021 Posted September 26, 2021 (edited) What would you tweak or do differently to try and solo with this build . @Boeroer Edited September 26, 2021 by GrumpyChewbacca
Boeroer Posted September 27, 2021 Author Posted September 27, 2021 I would go for higher sturdyness and also focus on stuff that lets you end combat prematurely - like Shadowing Beyond. It is very helpful for solo runs to be able to retreat once you killed a few enemies and come back a bit later to finish the job. I guess I would also use other items. This was partly a theme build ("wizard"-rogue) - so some items were picked for flavour over power. That's not helpful for solo runs of course. If going ranged I would maybe pick Persistence as main weapon. Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
