Greedfall - WHICH CLASS SHOULD YOU PLAY? | Skills, Attributes, Talents, & More

[@BoomstickGaming]

*This is a safe haven for gamers who value game mechanics and systems, because that’s what makes anything from 8-bit to 8k, equally enjoyable. Thanks for taking out some time to watch my stuff! I appreciate that!* - Alex Greedfall has really taken me by surprise this year and the RPG adventure that Spiders Games has come up with, easily stands rightfully alongside The Witcher and Dragon Age series. They focused on nailing the CORE aspects of what makes a good RPG, without falling into the trap of getting lost in their own superfluous and overstuffed systems. This was a refreshing change of pace to play such a “pure” RPG in 2019 and I highly recommend it!

[@jennismith4041]

I have been playing games from Atari to PS4 watched the development of the games get better each generation,l find greedfall an exciting new game with mage's 🤗

[@westrim]

There have been a few reviewers that have gone on my ignore list because of how nonsensical they were about this game. I get that it has glitches and bugs, and it's fine and important to note them, but I don't think many kept perspective that this isn't some studio that has an employee count in the hundreds and a budget larger than some small countries. Some issues are fine when, from everything I've seen, the gameplay and structure and storytelling are so darn good. Like the quest structure, possibly the best I've ever seen. No more putting off the main quest while dragons ravage the land, you've got to stay engaged. Giving it a 7 because lip syncing isn't great is ridiculous.

I've been playing Greedfall for four days already and I can tell you that it is an AMAZING game. Sure it might not have the smooth gameplay of Assassins Creed Odissey or The Witcher 3 but for sure it has a lot of interesting content in terms of the story's main quests and side quests. The whole political and diplomatic situations DeSarte encounters through the whole game is really interesting and it is so catchy. You just can't stop watching and knowing what is going on with the characters and their motives in the quests. There's this intrigue and mysterious feeling through many of the quests that you just want to keep on going to know more and more about it. Honestly, I hadn't felt this way about an RPG game of this kind since The Witcher 3. What Greedfall proved is that not always the game with millions of dollars budget is necessarily the best game ever. Sometimes, a small studio like Spiders can show that a small team can be able to create amazing games with awesome stories (this is what Greedfall is actually) with much less money. The key to success here is CREATIVITY AND QUALITY over quantity. I really hope they release Greedfall 2 one day.

Skillup is a pretty average reviewer.

Technical class for me.

[@000oooREBooo000]

20 hours in the game. Warrior class in extreme. Its fuckin difficult !! Deffinitely recommended

[@KnifeDiet]

MAge class is overpowered tbh. Attacks ignore armor and with magic potions u can do unlimited attacks. Potions cost 10 coins at most if u have max charsima. U also dont need endurance for armor because u can do range attacks. At level 10 u can get 2nd best rings from black island just lying aroun near north. What i mean is u dont need to destroy armor of enemies and u can just go for kill and use dash ability to stay out of combat and let ur companions keep enemy busy while ur magic recharge. Game becomes too ez at normal difficulty at around level 20 when u have best ring and best neck item.

[@timothymarktrinidad5385]

Shehroz Jehangir yep. But high end weapons can rip off armor in like 2-3 hits and hit much harder than magic rings outside of storm and stasis debuffs. I feel it should only ignore 50-75% armor and only fury fully pierces. But since it’s not really competitive i don’t feel too strongly about it. I’m playing it on hard near lvl 30 and already nothing survives storm and 3x shadow burst unless it’s a mini boss.

Take a mage, take the blink skill. You're invincible at lvl 10. By maxing fear / wave of fear (or whatever it is called in game) skills, you'll be able to 2-3 shot most of your enemies at max difficulty.

[@rudeboyjohn3483]

Ive maxed Diplomacy and intuition, focused on Mental Power and ... The other MP max one... And put all my points in healing and shadow/storm stuff. Realizing that yea, once you have the blink dash ability, combat is waaaaaay easier and i hardly ever use healing unless i get camera locked into a corner that i cant dash out of. But ohhhh man was early game annoying af when fighting as a mage in tight corridors

[@zethzacharia2224]

@@rudeboyjohn3483 I feel ya, bro. And yes, the blink dash ability is def overpowered. You can even regenerate your mana while dashing. And none of the enemies are able to do a thing, if you dash constantly. The maxed wave of fear + maxed fear spell gives your enemies a debuff, which in it's turn allows you to deal ridiculous amount of damage via the maxed aoe spell (you can actually strengthen the power of the latter by wearing some usefull stuff, e.g. a necklace which directly increases the aoe damage). I wish spiders had a bigger budget and made the combat more... exciting? I'm a bit disappointed with the variety of enemies that you meet in the game, cuz let's face it - they all have similar mechanics. They even look alike (except for the bats and nadaig). I also wish we had a bigger variety of spells and they wouldn't look so... minimalistic? My sorcerer colleagues will understand. I hope this successful game will propel the Spider's next game to the AAA league. I really wanna see a true, strong Dragon Age rival.

[@EldenLord.]

Yeah, the only enemies that could take a few more hits appeared in very late game, not sure if you beat the game but if you did, you knew which ones I mean. Also some of the Nadaig bosses are pretty resistant to magic.

Whilst you can have all classes at late game, going dual-spec as early as possible is probably best - Warrior and Mage would be a great choice (which is what ill be going down), but your choice of dual-spec is up to you. With a warrior and mage dual-spec, you can slam your enemies with a sword, mace etc then retreat and finish them off with a spell - and not to mention, going dual-spec with a mage allows you to save on potions

[@ISpecZxPainZz]

I just started the game and decided to begin as mage and then go to hybrid with technical :D So I have a lot more range attacks (gun and magic) but also fast close range attack (going for one handed weapon which you can get from technical/warrior and not for heavy one handed weapon) in combination with the traps from technical, I feel like this could be a lot of fun in fights, especially if you're fighting groups and/or larger enemies

[@Frostgnaw]

Went Technical because I love poisons and dots. Ended up dealing more with guns because of how broken they are. Crafting ammo is super cheap and you can make a ton very easily. I ended up with a gun with 3 barrels that was sniping enemies at range for their entire health bar with 1 shot.

[@EldenLord.]

Greedfall is a good RPG, I just finished it on Extreme difficulty as a pure mage build. I would say the game is still too easy overall (attacks are extremely easy to dodge and the bosses have a very small moveset). Also enemy variety is not good. What really stood out was the story and quality of the majority of the side quests. Everything, from lore to dialogue was written very well. I only ran into a few bugs, one of them was a bit more serious. I couldnt finish a side quest because of it. But I would definitely recommend this game to everyone who feels like playing an RPG right now. Playtime for me was 54 hours. I am someone who looks behind every corner, reads everything, does every side quest and listens to every dialogue option there is.

[@miguelcondadoolivar5149]

Magic is usually the easy mode in RPGs, maybe as a technical/warrior hybrid, you'd have more fun.

[@EldenLord.]

@@miguelcondadoolivar5149 Thats what I usually play, I wanted to do something different in this game. But I honestly doubt that it would be much of a difference. I saw some of my fully geared companions like Kurt do more damage than me with a single strike to some bosses. What makes the mage so strong is that one AOE attack which buffed up one shots some mobs and others are almost dead. Its useless against bosses though. But like I said, every move the enemy does can be seen a mile away, nothing ever hits you.

I have just started play the game today and I decided to play as technical for my first playthrough mainly because magic has always been an obvious "easy" cool class I would go first in rpg and I thought to change that in greedfall. Like 'it'd be cool to focus on lock pick, put traps, then bang bang and go slash slash like a thief getting caught off while breaking into a house' XD Warrior? Not really a fan of heavy armor/melee. Now watching this, I'm glad I chose technical. The class combat is really cool 😆

[@jennycrossdress8500]

But can you avoid using melee on technical and just use pistols/traps/bombs? It looked to me like you would have to use sword or other melee weapon while playing technical

[@MidoriGa95]

@@jennycrossdress8500 You could focus solely on pistol if you have ridiculous amount of ammo in your inventory. Melee is just to *compensate* that. Right now I'm using all, the melee, pistol and magic. Pistol to break the armor, magic to hurt the monsters that are weak to magic resistance or when I want to save the ammo to hit the boss from far and melee to give the big damage hit. So it depends on your playstyle on however you want to. Also I'd like to add, you would still use melee even if you go as magic caster since the mana depletes so fast Edit: about the trap and bomb, for now I rarely use them because I haven't unlock craftsmanship talent so I'm saving them for difficult fights

[@FarsightAE]

After playing full magic I'd recommend not going magic. It's so boring. 95% of the time you just spam the basic attack and being out of mana in 2 seconds.

[@yosharian]

Question for those who are playing/have played, and have used Firearms: if I wanted to use Firearms (Accuracy) as my only method of dealing damage, would that work out? I'm seeing conflicting info, with some people saying Firearms do amazing damage, and then others saying that they don't do enough damage so don't rely on them...

[@xClintBeastwood]

I would say no to it being possible in the early game. Starting out, you are limited to 5 bullets and cannot craft ammo until Science level 2. Guns do great damage, but until you can craft ammo, you have to hope you loot some or else spend money to buy some. I definitely use guns as often as I can, but I do not use it as the sole source of damage.

[@paladindance]

Using firearms only is a bit unreliable but I guess you can pull it off. It requires a ton of micromanagement but firearms do insane damage if you invest in craftsmanship as well. If you want to play as a ranged character I would make a hybrid and start as a mage then invest into firearms later.

Im playing Remnant right now and living it but I got Outward, Darksiders 3 and now Blasphemous and Borderlands 3 waiting to be played so I will be busy for a while. Oh and Outer Worlds and Jedi Fallen Order is coming up as well. Man 2019 is a really awesome year for gaming.

The last RPG game was DragonAce IQ and Witcher 3 and happy to play something like that again. The last game I played was Red dead Redemption 2 and it’s a super Lite RPG. I miss RPG games!!!

[@icyhott8709]

Technical build is the bees knees, I'm going for a zorro feel

[@adir3025]

Such a great game. Hope they make a sequel

[@chrisgraham1781]

It kinda reminds me of a mix of the Witcher and fable 3 and dragon age.

[@user23x7bnmqr4]

here is a fun idea im doing! guns & magic! use stasis and use your gun for a sweet 1k damage combo!

[@jermelpurse3018]

This is a good one well worth the $50.

Magic in game these days always look like some spark and firecracker which little kids use it to play. They should take example from Dragon's Dogma, that's how magic should look like.

One thing I would mention is certain armor and characters on your team will give you a +1 to your talent. I wouldn't invest in crafting because you have a guy in one of the towns that can craft tier 3s for 75 gold per craft tbh. I did mage. Lot of potions needed to keep mana up but you can craft potions and the materials to craft it are always available. It was a boring playthrough because mage is op when you invest in endurance and magic. Plenty of life to sustain yourself and damage to end battles quickly.

It's like Mass Effect classes of Soldier, Adept and Engineer (or Dragon Age Warrior, Mage and Rogue)- but with more variety and flexibility, since the players are free to choose the paths for their unique builds. I heckin' love this game!
