GRIM DAWN VS VICTOR VRAN PLUS

Haunted Steel on everything, and gambled weapons with life steel is how it came down. I stumbled across a weapon with like 10% life steal and it was silly how useful it was. It was the same with this Commando in Grim Dawn. In Titan Quest I think all of my chars tended towards ridiculous amounts of health generation, not really by intention, but it was so powerful and some gear gave you pretty silly bonuses to it so it just. It feels like I'm doing something wrong, or the game is just like that. So to you who knows, I wouldn't live without life steal. The weapons I've used the most have all been gamblecrafted actually, for my 'main' (2H melee Commando), mostly because of life steal. That'll let me peg my devotions without crucible farming, and I can see if I need to completely revamp. Should be able to completely wipe out 'Normal' this week, or at least enough to make me feel good about it, and move up a tier, start all over. I res back in camp to '+100 Reputation with Blah Blah' heheh. I've managed several boss kills off-screen that way, and at least 2 have dotted to death after I couldn't clear the area quickly enough and fell. I've worked out a semi-pattern of running in with the Eye, smacking everything I can reach, and then darting out of range, letting the massive dots and retaliation damage take its toll. With no real ranged damage (ignoring aura), I have to go hunting the mobs, and pretty quickly get in 'stuck' range. Just trying to last long enough to get to a 'farm' status, and I'll go hunting for better gear. I've got a good pair of pants in the bank within a few levels, and I wouldn't mind swapping my feet. My gear is not too far from level, so armor is ok, but I gotta bump those resists up. I hit 49 kdps last night on the Flesh Master (thanks to my Dreega'lanore best weapon I see at legendary for my build, but level 58 ), but I'm scrambling to get a couple of pieces swapped out to get me some better resist.

A few of the bounty targets yielded double rep, as I got rep for the kill near my level, plus the bounty rewards. Had to farm a little Rover rep this morning, to bump into Honored for the last Shrine quest, and discovered (happily) that when I wander into an area for the first time, no matter how low the area normally is, it looks like it scales to my current level. So, approaching 70 rapidly, and almost cleared all the quests in my log. I played through it though because my buddy wanted me to play with him. I only played the first one and I was bored out of my mind.

Will Grim Dawn keep up? So far yes but I need to put many more hours into it before making my final conclusion. GD is new so my excitement is high but POE kept me hanging on for a long time.can't argue that POE is one awesome game. The truth is this if I can play GD long enough to get 600+ hours in it then its a solid game but if I get bored after 100-200 hours then everything I said about GD being better will be wrong and I'll admit it too. I like that I don't have to deal with the crazy skill tree of POE and have a simpler skill path to follow with GD but GD does have the constellations which really allows for some cool tweaking and added bonuses which should cater to POE fans. Not a ton of voice acting but enough so far. Lore is decent if you take the time to do a lot of reading. Solid gear drops without having to waste crazy amounts of money or deal with the trade network. Graphics and world art are on another level compared to POE. GD on the other-hand has (so far) a far richer world to run around in. Not to mention loot drops are stupid and getting that awesome gear is a lot of work I know because I have put the work into it. Plus the changes every two to three months kinda annoy me because I'm constantly having to re-work some of my characters.

The Acts motivate me while the maps just become tedious. I think that is why i keep starting new characters just so I can replay the acts. I have around 6 characters in that game ranging from L50 to high L80's and I just can't be bothered to run maps over and over to keep leveling. I can blow through all the acts way too fast. The thing I do not love is running maps after the last act. Not to take anything away from POE though as I do love that game. I now have 36 hours into Grim Dawn with my L40 char and so far I do like this game more than POE (at this time).
