What is possibly best end-game build? (with unlimited budget)

I said MOST of NPC is just trash players, with a few respectable members sorta sprinkled in there. Don't take it too personally, sweet pea. Honestly I wouldn't give a rat's ass about the guild if it wasn't seemingly the lowest common denominator for the most part, but I also don't think any of them would stick with pvp if they couldn't just hop on some meta or whatever, balance would weed some of them out.

As for that guy's tree, all I can really say is that experience is the best teacher


And if it's a melee tree (on my phone currently) then I can't help because I don't DO melee; it's beneath me ;)

Rlowe no one else in your guild is playing breach. But we are.

You should join us. I need you to teach me the freeze immunity bypass exploits and ultra wide screen targeting. You can build a frostwall and make NPC great again. Also dancing. Lots of dancing on top of people when you kill them and then pretending to be afk when they kill you.

Show me the ways of non-trashy highest denominator classiness. <3

İ know i am asking for too much from you but i would appreciate so much if any one of you respectable exiles could give a useless newbie like myself few advises on the passive tree i have just made on my own here; swordman <<< here

why sword?
why Resolute Technique?
why duelist?

you should give us the answers of these questions so we can help you. also don't think that getting lvl 100 in this game is easy.

make your tree for lvl 85-90, so you'd have enough life pool when you come to lvl 90. it looks good, but
i feel like you have followed a wrong path to marauder area. I gotta check but i'd like to know your answers to my questions

also, the best place for asking build advices is build forums.

if it's pvp oriented, you gotta use starforge and pick every aoe in the tree and get a very glass cannonish spec. if it's pve- and looks like it- yeah i gotta know why you have such buildidea in your mind

After i have learnt that swords wouldnt go well with resolute technique because of swords giving extra accuracy i have changed my mind. Now i am thinking of using two handed axe instead maybe? İ wanted duelist because i have been inspired by ahfack and he was using champion so i tought i could switch to his build if everything went wrong :D .. But i have not decided to choose champion because it doesnt seem to go well with my tree as my tree contains dodge and spell dodge. Because champion has lots of armor increasing nodes and i cant use them to their full potential because of dodge. The reason i wanted two hand was because i wouldnt be able to use dodge so i decided to get rid of block completely and thus got two handed. The reason i decided resolute technique was because i decided i wouldnt be able to afford critical strike nodes with all the others there wouldnt be enough points so i decided to completely get rid of critics and fully benefit with resolute technique.

For EQ RT it's Atziri's Disfavour all the way. Don't even need a Voidheart. I recommend slayer for leveling and champion for endgame/pvp.

Check out my buddy Norse's thread, as we have very similar tastes.

Slayer isn't good at pvp because all someone needs is Bloodless node on the tree or sintrek boots swap and it makes several of your passive and ascendancy points worthless.

If you want to crit then staff with Voidheart is your best option.

melee has very different playstyle than any other build in this game.

look at FRP games, such as neverwinter nights, baldur's gate and dragon's age. you name it.

melee deals much more damage than ranged. ranged units are a tool to eliminate mages from range, rangers are far from the battles heat, they are really hard to get close(traps) and so they don't get countered by disable spells/effects and they are very important in groups. they are not the main dps units in most of other games. but here they are.

in this game, absurdly rangers deal more damage than melee.

even though melees have highest risk of dying, they have less damage too.

so why people play melee? cause it's fun and requires more attention and gameplay to sweep through conetent than other builds. you feel like you are actually fighting and feeling the struggle in game levels. but would that be fun for you as well? melee players are most of the time very experienced players and they know how to acquire good gear at the start of the league.

It's really hard for starters to get proper melee gear in this game. My melee friends are opening 5 instances of game and doing dom runs etc etc to get proper gear for quite long time.

you should revise your thoughts about melee again i'd say.

I tried to make a melee build with the same approach of i did bow build, i had 7 tine less dps than my barrage build. my sword was 870 pdps, 9.4 crit, almost perfect in every way crit sword. I had 7k life, when i said that to my melee player friends, they were like "ah... 7k life... cute". you got get oneshotted very very frequently even with 7k life. melee build making is most of the time just about stacking defences and killing things in slow but steady way.

for pvp probably, EQ is best or high aoe lacerate. glass cannon is the way. though, in pvp, in such broken meta probably dual wield is better than 2H when it comes to have proper pvp HLD build. dual wield has better dps than 2H also block too.

Ya true melee is fucked at the moment because GGG can barely tie their shoes at the moment. Hopefully this will change. Right now, it's end of year. GGG is a business with investors. Quad tabs and purple capes are much more important than fixing game mechanics. This is not a snarky post - just a truthful one.

Rupenus thanks for the useful informations, i wont go for pvp anymore i go for pve get geared up, learn about the game let the game change THEN maybe i will go for pvp if ggg changes the pvp mechanics...

Well until then i will be looking around the forum for the ways to get currency faster i guess? :))
