Having a bad time choosing the 6th member

[Keldaur]

Okey, i got thus far.

 

Leader - Fighter (intended 2 handed front liner)

Skaen priest

Darcozzi Paladin (tanky but not on the extreme)

Druid melee

Wizard

 

 

I am thinking about a ranger, a barbarian or a rogue, but i can't make my mind up. Any suggestion ?

 

I think i need something ranged, i play on highest difficulty :d

The best ranged chars (in my opinion):

 

- The Long Pain Monk

- Stormcaller Ranger

- Blaster Wizard

 

There's a class build in this forum for a monk like that. Fortunately, it was written by me.

Much appreciated, will try out the stormcaller ranger, but that witch doctor build sounds fun. Hoping it's on the forum.

The link I posted... ? Or do you mean the Stormcaller Ranger? It's a normal hunting bow ranger with Heart of the Storm talent and Stormcaller as the main weapon. It's nothng special talent- and ability wise. Stormcaller itself makes it so powerful.

 

Key abilites besides the usual bow related things are Twinned Arrows and Driving Flight in order to proc Returning Storm as often as possible.

I too agree with Ranger.  Delivering damage from a distance is so very satisfying.

The ranged monk is much more powerful after lvl 7 and less squishy though - without any special equipment. But he requires more active play and micromanagement, whereas the ranger requires nearly none in comparison (as long as you don't want to micromanage the pet too much).

 

Blaster wizards with an implement with on-crit-effects and Kalakoth's Minor Blights and Llengrath's Blunt Wisdom is also a very powerful ranged character.

Speaking of blast: after you get Rot Skulls with the druid (spell level 6) I would completely retrain to a pure ranged druid with implements and Envenomed Strike. Very powerful!

Thx. Blaster wizard i already have one in the party. At the end i went with the ranger, since i never really played one for long.

Yeah I reckon the most powerful six person party would be

 

2x fighters built to be tanks

2x rangers

2x wizards
