      I just hope they keep the super-jump. Talked to the devs in a stream and they said they kept the super-jump in Sanctuary even though they knew it was a bug. They said that they wanted people to be able to use it if that's how they wanted to play. Respect for the team!

      I chose the duelist because I like the pistols from the first game. And because I always choose a spell caster class in other games

    I chose duelist because it was the only class focusing on increasing luck (crossbow scales with luck) which helps getting more item drops. Later I switched Rapier for the Whip which also scales with luck and focused on increasing arcane as well, as many whips scale with it too. I hope I can farm equipment upgrade materials soon. So far the vast majority of enemies just drop common-basic loot. (my item find is 51)

    I started with the duelist, because I mistook the rapier's sheath in the icon as a wand and was interested in that sword-wand combo. Suffice to say, I was obviously wrong, but the rapier was pretty fun while I used it. Ended up crafting a katana and switching to that though - the rapier's erratic movement while comboing just didn't quite work for me because most enemies seemed to easily reach me even after backstepping with the heavy attack. I can see returning to it at some point though, when I'm more comfortable with the pace of the game. As a starting weapon, the rapier just seems a tad hard to get into, because it seems to require an actual rythm and pacing yourself. Which can be hard when you don't yet know the game's pace.

    Really have no idea what I’m going to be. Skills being tied to weapons are going to make it hard to really settle on something until we know if there are cool hybrid weapons like the last game. From what I’ve seen in LP’s sage and high blade seem to have the coolest weapon skills but that’s only from a few bosses.

    I kinda want to use two-handed swords and none of the classes start with that skill this time around, so I'll have to go with whatever one starts closest to that node. I'm guessing fighter/paladin by the look of it. I'll have to restart a bunch of times anyway I'm sure, because that tutorial boss is getting killed before I do anything else lol.

    A little tip for those that are watching this, the skills yiur character has can make it easy to set up your build, for example fighter starts with vanguard skills aka sword and shield and heavy armor, the sword and shield skill point is close to greatswords and cleavers path in the tree, so if you wanted to start a str character with a greatsword he would be the best.

  • @johngriffin5608
    @johngriffin5608 Год назад

    I played a couple times for about 20-30 levels and I've decided to go with duelist because it's a dexterity build. With a little luck and a little endurance. For the crossbow and the extra items and the light armor. I'm also getting the half spear highblade short bow and I think I'm going to do the whip also. I believe they're all dexterity and I just done enough Divine to get special attacks unlocked.
    This is the edited part. It's a dexterity and lucky build. I'm going to do a little arcane to unlock those special abilities too. My highest stat is dexterity. I'm using the high blade more now. I was using the Duelist and a little spear but the attacks are mostly straightforward thrust that's why I'm going to the high blade.
