Make sure to pick gear and constellation devotion points that increases your elemental and Aether damage to maximize your Arcanist's DPS.Īn Arcanist focused on PRM tends to not do as well on Ultimate difficulty, however, so if you are planning on doing more than just play the story, you may want to pick a different base class.Īrcanist Class Battlemage (Arcanist + Soldier) PRM can take you far in this game if you fully upgrade that entire branch of the skill tree with Distortion, Supercharged, and Proliferation. That's what you get with the Arcanist, who begins the skill tree with a D&D style magic missile spell named Panetti's Replicating Missile (PRM). While the front-line fighters tend to do very well in ARPGs, my first class of choice is always the dedicated spellcaster. Of all the classes, Arcanist is among the best for going the pure single class route. If you find specific skills aren't working with your class build or you want to try a different path down the skill trees, don't forget you can un-learn skills at a spirit guide (in Devil's Crossing, the spirit guide Sadhina is found in the top corner of the prison area). We've listed out every possible Grim Dawn class combination in the chart below, followed by a closer look at some of the most powerful (or fun to play) mastery combinations available. While it's possible to run a pure single class (focusing on the mastery bar and fully upgrading specific skills), frankly it's more fun to try to find a dual class that works by meshing together opposing skill combos. Besides the dark setting, what further sets Grim Dawn apart from the pack is in the dual class mastery system, which lets you tinker with dozens of possible class combinations.
