What is your Favourite Combination

[AusWilko]

Thought I'd start this forum off,

Exterminator for me Close Combat+Alchemey - I just love the combo of Duel Weilding and granedes.

Mind you, after finishing with Piaranna I will be looking to give others a shot

[nesmar]

i'm loving close combat/chrono with spear/shield right now. good mix of offense and defense.

some abilities are disappointing, but its awesome overall

[bimdi]

CC+Vamp for me lots of dmg an killing power and life leech on all mobs due to lowered life leech resists

[ward_rb]

beast/construction.

makes sense, i loved playing a zookeeper necro in d2.

CC and construction....Epic creatures can barely dent my health. This is the first build I'm trying and it almost feel overpowered, because it gives so much damage resistance. I'm at more than 50% right now and my endorphin and the other skill in concstruction are still not maxed. If I can find a good veteran body armor...well this will be a very hard to kill toon.

I so far have only Manipulator (Alc + Chr), Enforcer (CC + Constr) and Necromancer (Sorc + Vamp) and all in act 1 normal, but out of these I love Manipulator the most. So overpowered for this time of the game (Minoan Labyrinth). With some skills I can one-shot the automatoi, which usually take ages to kill with normal difficulty toons.

Does anyone have workable builds they can post? I've got a Vampire (Kain) and Mystic I'm working on at level 14. Is the bat any good? Is Way of Kain any good? We don't have Titan Calc for the mod but man - gimme some ideas. Trial and error is tough when you get to Epic or Legendary. Let me know and thanks for the Mod - Rocks! so far

[Matseb2611]

Way of Kane seems very useful for a melee toon with all the attack speed and piercing damage bonuses.

Thaumaturgist... It is super strong and I have not died once. I just started playing with masteries mod though and I am only a 15 at the end of act 1. I want meteor and I am sure it would rock! Nothing can kill me. :| I own everything with my bomb/shrapnel. That is my main attack. I think I want to try out Chasm...

I have a lvl 59 CC+Vamp just finished killing the Act2 Telkine in Legendary here is a run down of my stats and skills to give you an idea of my build. Please keep in mind at no point will i say this is the best/fastest killer out there. This is a very EASY build to play as i RARELY if ever use my right mouse button. That being said with the right gear this setup is very effective.

I tried the bats in Normal and maxed both of the first 2 skills, but from what I saw even at max after spending 22 points on them they simply did not stay alive long enough to be worthwhile. One AoE from a trash mob and they were both dead (act4). That being said I did NOT test them in Epic or Legendary so do not know if maybe the scaling helps with this. I also did not have a lot of gear that gave pluses to pet skills. So in the end I found that the bats would be best used on a caster who has gear with +pets. Being a melee user I found little use for them. In the end here is my damage and speed output according to the game with all skills active.

Average Damage: 1407
Attack Speed: 203%
DPS: 2850

Also note that between skills and equipment I currently have between 28-33% damage converted to health which to me unless you wanna be chugging reds all the time is necessary. A word of warning. This build is mana intense so I highly recommend the infinite potion stacking mod and a pile of blue pots

Hope this build write up helps and if you want more info just ask
