High perception build help

Featured Replies

I want to put together a build around high perception - probably also my mechanics character.

 

I'm not really sure who might benefit from that the most? I've been doing some other reading and it looks like high dex is currently the suggested damage dealing stat.

 

I also like trying to talk out and resolve issues without fighting. I've been playing RPGs for forever and I just find it a little more interesting and rewarding to fix things rather than punch.

 

I wouldn't mind playing a ranger or chanter, but I've read Maia is brokenly good at being a ranger due to her specials, to the point the watcher can't compare? And I'm not sure if chanter would be good/bad without pumping int.

 

I thought of rogue, but the 'have to be within 2 meters and stealth/etc.' limits in Deadfire are really turning me off - I liked being able to play a sniper rogue in POE1.

 

And I'm reading that guns are speed capped I guess? So even if I went full dex, ranger-chanter with gunner and Ila, I wouldn't get much benefit because I'd hit the cap?

 

Should I maybe try a one-handed melee build like a skald or something crit based?
