fortuntek Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) First character you will make/made in the backer beta, aaaaand GO! .. I'm at work and just waiting to go home and download I'm thinking keeping it basic as possible, Fighter sword and board type. But once I get my hands on that sweet sweet multiclass character creator all bets are off Edited November 15, 2017 by fortuntek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morhilane Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 First character? I'm going to spend 2+ hours in character creation and then it's going to be bedtime. No first character for me today, I guarantee it. 5 Azarhal, Chanter and Keeper of Truth of the Obsidian Order of Eternity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I got that out of my system this time watching Ellohime's hour on stream going through the character creator though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryvnai Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Unless I can import my poe 1 character probably the strangest combination of classes I can just to see if it will work decently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheesevillain Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Trickster & Priest multi class. It looks like you'll gain more than twice the abilities as a single class character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smjjames Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) Maybe an idea would be to decide using dice rolls? Could get some crazy combinations that way. Edited November 15, 2017 by smjjames Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novem Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I'm going to make that Troubadour/Sharpshooter that I've been dreaming of ever since I heard about the Multiclasses. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManifestedISO Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Will try a priestly Explosives expert. Really looking forward to precision lobbing of the booms. All Stop. On Screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_dog_days Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Monk/Cypher. That's going to be my canon character, so I want to check him ASAP. But I can guarantee that I'll be making multiple characters to test things out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortuntek Posted November 15, 2017 Author Share Posted November 15, 2017 Unless I can import my poe 1 character probably the strangest combination of classes I can just to see if it will work decently. Actually they said during the stream that you can indeed import the hidden ".complete" savegames to the Backer Beta! I'm a little torn about this. Equal parts excited, but I also am attached to a couple of those characters and want to import them only after the game is complete so I get the full experience. I was pretty disappointed after playing the PoE Beta originally and it killed my enthusiasm for the game initially. It was many updates later until I replayed it and about 3.0 by the time I REALLY got into it. Now I have thousands of hours logged playtime.

fortuntek Posted November 15, 2017 Author Share Posted November 15, 2017 Maybe an idea would be to decide using dice rolls? Could get some crazy combinations that way. Heh. This is a good idea to try after having worn out all of my first choices. I asked Josh what his fav multiclass combo is currently and (after going on at length about Ghost Lodge rangers) said he really liked Street fighter/Barb I think it was? Makes me wonder if carnage will synergize with it, but I forget what Street fighter does. So I feel like theory crafters will have their dreams fulfilled for years to come with builds.

RedDavidson Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I made a Joan of Arc inspired Herald(Paladin/Chanter). Auras galore plus a focus on summoning invocations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheisEjsing Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Personally I'm not gonna do alot of roleplaying in the beta. I'm gonna make some characters and try to break them. I'll start with a hunter subclass, and go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
divx Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I made a Crusader (Devoted/Kind Wayfarer) and got more than one proficiency. I'm guessing thats a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunehunter Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 (edited) Bleakwalker/Assassin seems to be a fun combo. Paladin got great defenses which helps them to survive and cheap affliction from Flame of devotion for sneak attacks. Doing great on both survive and killing. Backstab + Flame of devotion = One shot kill !! Deep Faith has good synergy with riposte too. Edited November 16, 2017 by dunehunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morhilane Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 I ended up actually creating characters: - a Priest of Eothas (that was actually my POE1 character)...two Priests makes your party too weak so I restarted. - a Chanter, I think chants are actually bugged. I see my character "starting to chant" in the log, but not hits. So restart again. - a Ghost Heart, that one has been fun to play so far. Azarhal, Chanter and Keeper of Truth of the Obsidian Order of Eternity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
