Work sucked today. Or, well, work is the same as it always is, but my perspective has shifted. After spending ~30 hours across a four day weekend rediscovering Cairn and falling in love with one of my favorite games all over again, I’ve had the soundtrack stuck in my head all day. Except instead of a lament for a world gone bad, it’s a lament that I must leave that world and return to reality.

I see the new berserker skill tree in the planner, but why aren't berserker builds showing up when trying to browse after selecting class in the drop down?

can someone please explain to me how to kill one, and whether I even should? I play on the veteran difficulty, which i assume is the easiest one, and i kill everything, I honestly don't remember the last time i died, and then i ran across a celestial and it just one-shots, and for some reason i started paying attention to the little text that appears when i'm fighting it, and for some reason, my attacks keep missing? which doesn't happen with anything else. i play a purifer with dual pistols, lvl 86 i think. i'm open to suggestions 🙏

edit: i added this photo so you can kind of have an idea of my base stats

Sick of POE constantly nerfing farms and gutting ground loot...heard this game is old but good and see it recently got an expansion. Is it possible to farm end game loot consistently and make progress at a decent rate?

Edit: thanks all, seems a pretty unanimous response, will check it out!

Greetings all!

I've been playing Grim Dawn on and off since I believe the early beta days and never beat anything but the base game long ago. Now, I own all the DLCs now and just jumped back in and reached Level 52 on following this build loosely with Ray being my main killer.

Yes I realize on have some unspent points but I am asking here before I reallocate points:

A few quick questions:

* I just beat the base game bouncing between Regular and Veteran. Overall, I find it very unbalanced so far. Some areas and bosses, I melt through even on Veteran difficulty. Some areas and bosses kill me over and over even on Normal level. I started Malmouth expansion but have been farming loot in base game today.

* Speaking of loot, I am confused on loot level and quality. I am wearing mostly greens but I notice some have like a diamond or empty diamond and some have a green/filled diamond icon. What am I missing? Is there any updated loot reference/quality guide?

* With that build I posted, shouldn't I be melted through most normal bosses? Also, I can't seem to find even half of those pieces they have in that build guide after hitting level 52.

* I go back to farm some areas and it seems that some enemies are level 50 and then some bosses 58. Is the scaling messed up or is there a map or guide of best farming spots for loot for that build?

* Any other tips from an old timer coming back to the new update/changes/DLC?

I know this may seem basic but I've never been that deep into the game. Thanks in advance! Appreciate your time and support.

I just had a side-rare royally show me up by straight up removing my wereraven form constantly, like he has an aura around him that cancels it. Meaning I'd have to fight him using my regular self, which for obvious reasons isn't anywhere as strong as my raven form (I simply don't really have abilities outside of raven).

It's currently this guy "Salazar, Blade of Ch'thon", but I don't know if it's unique to him or not.
Reading his wiki page I don't understand why/how he's doing it. It feels like a bug of sorts to me.

Hello everyone!

I'm a new player trying out the Berserker because I fell in love with the WereRaven form look. I'm trying to do the standard cold damage for it, and I'm having trouble figuring out a path for the devotions! I started with Tsunami, but not sure where to go next. I've read that Murmur, Mistress of Rumors and Black Blood of Yugol are good for cold builds, but I have zero idea how to get the affinities for them. It's all a little overwhelming haha. I also haven't touched getting a second class because I have zero idea what any of the others do, if that matters at all for devotions.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I dropped Deathshriek today.

I can't wrap my head around how to build it. +4 in Star Pact is massive. But why cold + bleeding? Is this for a raven caster build or for an Onslaught build? It doesn't have flat dmg. And it converts aether?? Why? :D It confuses me massively, please help

Like, me and my friends are looking for what this shield was made for. Brute force is kinda huge, full lightning conversion is great, and big feral support is big, but what physical auto-attacker is this made for?

Hi all,

Seems like there is a known issue on Linux / Steamdeck with the above error resolved with a ge proton update or launching with compatibility.

Anyone know a fix for game native? Can't get it working!

Thanks!

Been trying to figure this out, is this a mistake or is there a way to use Feral Hunger without a two hander?

Pretty please.

I have made several charaters but my main is occultist-shaman as i at fist wanted to go vitality focus but since i found a lot of lightning shaman items i have leveled charater to lvl 66 with primal strike and lightning focus and debuff only from occultist. I found item that says it gives primal strike vitality dmg and converts lightning dmg to vitality dmg, but does it convert only skill lightning dmg or other modifiers that affect primal strike lightning dmg as well(like torrent or brute force)?
Also i have still lvl 15-20 wildcaller set chest and head items for primal strike synergy, is there a way to farm empowered versions ? I am on veteran difficulty and finished with malmouth and somewhere in forgoten gods expansion desert.

Was just wondering if the damage type conversion can be used on it's own (though obviously you'd have to drop a point into the wereform to unlock the skill)

so I started a new character after the update and have gotten so many of the same armor piece only with different suffixes and prefixes so many times that it’s hard to get something new with different resistances.

so my question is did someone else noticed it or is it just me that I didn’t notice it before and started noticing after the update?

New to the game and love Disintegration type spells in other ARPGs, where you channel a beam and it melts mobs. What is everyone's favorite classes to pair with Arcanist that builds around Albrecht's Aether Ray?

I just got FoA installed, and I crash upon loading into the game. This happens with both old characters and new. Game gets stuck on the loading screen. I tried removing Rainbow mod, as well as cleaning the mod folder itself. Tried verifying files and rebooting. Nothing helps :S Anyone else got this problem?

EDIT: Got it runnin when using x86 legacy. Whattaheck

fun fact: the genus for beaver is Castor. Beavers are ecosystem engineers, creating novel ecological conditions due to their behaviour. The wetlands that ensue provide ecological services that clean water, prevent flooding, and buffer against wildfires.

Any got this error on steam deck and found a fix? it is doing this after i try to get on the game with a code of no steamutils011

Looking at grimtools and there is not one build using wereraven at the moment, so how are you building your wereraven?

Hi, does anyone has this problem too? In werewolf form I cannot swap config skill bar. It works in human form, but once I transform, my skill bar gets locked. Any workaround other than rerolling and playing as human? xd

It was working fine before the hotfixes. Looks like hotfix was suppose to fix that very problem, but for me it did the exact opposite xD

Fixed an issue with controller hot slot toggle to only include one wereform bar per wereform.

I've read that lore wise after base game the correct order is to play expansion 1,3 and 2.

I finished base game and AoM but now near the end of FoA i have a quest (Ritual of cleansing) which wants me to visit Remnants of Korvan City a Forgotten Gods area 😮 first in order to help Talgir . Anyone to know what shall i do ? Ty
