No idea. I sure hope not!

[JerekKruger]

I've seen people say it doesn't anymore, though haven't tested it myself.

[PIRI]

"Xoti, get the lantern, time to reap souls."

 

[Ganrich]

Did an edit on Harbinger of Berath build to make it more suitable for the current patch (1.1) with the removal of Brilliant from Set to Their Purpose.  Just read the edit at the bottom of the page if interested.  Basically just replaced both talents for Set to Their Purpose and the talent for Her Courage as to get a fully upgraded Reny Daret/Ben Fidel and the upgrade to Seven Nights.

 

Also, without Brilliant it makes DoC breastplate an option, but I still find Reckless Brig better for durability purposes when bloodied.  So, your choice is more Guile or easier to stay in the Bloodied pocket.

Why The Bleak Huntress Build (in Holy Slayer category) linked to The Healing Wall from Herald category? I mean multiclass rogue/paladin is different than paladin/chanter.

[Boeroer]

Hm, must be a copy & paste error. Sometimes the forum really wants to annoy me. With such a lengthy post and a lot of edits I encounter a lot of hickups lately when saving my edited post. Not too long ago all URLs got removed after saving or the list got cropped. Maybe that this left some errors (I'm like Obsidian: introducing new bugs with every patch ). I will fix this asap, thanks for notifying me.

 

Edit: fixed

Oh man, I'm super tempted to share my op as heck build to everyone but I'm afraid Obsidian might see it and nerf it to oblivion. What to do... I think I might just do a teaser!

 

Build Overview: Can solo 1.1 potd difficulty with Level Scaling Mod (can be downloaded from nexus mods, highly recommended). It is built to outlast the enemy while still maintaining respectable damage. It's basically the God of Attrition. It does not use any op based arcana/alchemy scrolls and potions which I think will be nerfed hard in the coming patch. 

 

With Berath's Blessing, I'm running 18 might, 18 perception, 18 intellect and 8 on everything. So it ends up to 20 might, 20 perception, 20 intellect and 10 on everything. 

 

Lore: She's a female pale elf hailing from The White that Wends. A frigid soul in a cold barren land. She wanders around aimlessly, unknowingly guided by the Cosmo. Always alone but determined, she gazes towards the coal-black unflinching sky, her treasured flute by her side. At a distance spanning mountains wide, there is fire and warmth. A caravan can be seen, perched upon the snow capped mountains, the smell of barley and ale, the jovial atmosphere and the loud chattering of kith resting after a long day's travel. Unmistakably, the group of kith starts hearing a faint but sonorous melody. Their once loud chattering stopping abruptly as if the time itself has stopped. Even the previously biting gale lays still, replaced by the echoes of a forgotten past, yearning for a distant future. It ceases to be heard as the stars appear in the sky. And just like that, this band of weary travelers have bared witness to a famous bard's tale only thought to have been a legend.

I really like the Lore part

 

I'm gonna take a wild guess and say it's a Spiritualist. Alternative guesses include Herald and Loremaster

[giftmefood]

Thank You

 

 

And uhhh IDK Not telling. You are 33% right though!

Hi - thanks. I will be flying home today evening. Once I boot up my computer I will add the new builds. It's so tedious to edit rich text on the phone. Thanks for your patience!

[TheMetaphysician]

Boerer, could you include a section for companion builds? There are a few floating around, and that's something I'd like to see.

[Boeroer]

I could tag builds with a small picture or text. Like so: ?

 

Or I could just add a line to every build wher it says if it's compatible to companions, like so:

Hello, I forgot to add the description for my build.

"A harbinger of storm, mowing enemies with her lightning machinegun"

[Boeroer]

Ok, I will add it.

[giftmefood]

Ok, I will add it.

 

Thank you

[Boeroer]

Boerer, could you include a section for companion builds? There are a few floating around, and that's something I'd like to see.

I have now added a seperate line to every build entry so we can add companions that work with that build. You you tell me which companion builds are out there so that I can add their names to the build ar add the whole build to the list? I already added the Pallegina build, but I guess there are more companion builds?

The other one I was thinking of was the Engaging Eder one, but it isn't put into the format that the rest are. I'll post on that thread to ask if the poster will put it into the proper format, and if he isn't willing to, I'll try to do it myself.

[Madscientist]

I have made the fast assassin again, like I did in PoE1. https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/102607-class-build-the-fast-assassin-deadfire-edition/

I would be happy if you put it on the list and I will try to update it to later patches, unless they change the game so much that this concept becomes useless.

I wanted to wait some more, but I had to post a build before somebody else has posted all my ideas. ( Like the Lady of Pain, I had something similar in mind )

Ok, I'll wait and see. Atm that build is not very "fleshed out".

What Do you guys think: if there would be a mechanic where I could pull out the "likes" of a build (opening post of the individual build thread) and put them besides the entry in the list - would you be interested in such a thing? Like so:

One star would represent 10 likes for example. No idea how to realize this yet. The obvious thing would be to look into the build posts, write down the number of likes and then put the corresponing number of stars besides the list entry. You may understand that this would not be my preferred method.

 

If you want something like that let me know. And if you have smart ideas how to simplify it then please let me know.

I don't think it's easy to get the admins to implement stuff into the forum. I already tried to get anchors in and so far I got no reply from a board admin. So it would be best if the ideas worked in the scope of "unmodded" forum mechanics.
