As someone who, as a newish player, decided to run blind flaw for blindseer for shits and giggles, it hurts. On land it’s fine but trying to sail is tortuous. The best part? My first slot was gremor, which not only has a compass but even has some blind resistance. I will say though actually getting the oath and suddenly being able to see after a long of time of just a hazy void around you, that does feel great. It’s like seeing the sun after hours of deepbound wiping

Gremor race gives you an area of normal vision around you if you are blind, making it a bit more bearable

Autodidact is pretty good for Stats that are annoying to level up (such as willpower and charisma) and also keep your other stats from falling behind

[@kartinmat9748]

Couple things to note about packmule: - The 25 food capacity thing mentioned is a bug and happens through buying in bulk at merchants with no food in your inventory, you are still limited to a much lower cap, coming into play when you try to buy or make more of the food item while having any amount in your inventory, and both packmule (boon) and packmule (talent) increase said cap up to, if I remember correctly, 19 total. Not that big of a deal overall, if you just use the bug to bulk buy 25 a pop, but still something worth noting. - Packmule also increases the amount of repair kits you can stack up to 7, which can be nice for depths shenanigans. There might also be other stackable items (that do not stack to 99) affected by this, but I don't know of any personally.

[@sockathylol]

Autodidact is worth a C. You can skip having to get 15 points at Power 20 if you save up 15 points, which makes progression even faster

[@jah4708]

Also if you farm in the depths, you will have a lot of excess exp allowing you to skip 2-3 levels

[@gocraftergo]

doesn't skip anything, you still need the event xp which is the actual problem late game

[@sockathylol]

@@gocraftergo Not true at all. You don't need any exp to invest your 15 points at Power 20 since you don't power increase afterwards and Trial of One doesn't count towards your exp gain, but if you have autodidact, you can leave 2 powers later than usual.

The thing with deficient is that when you have high tempo it doesnt do much but if you have a lower amount of tempo the ether regen being slower is VERY noticeable

[@tamirsins1289]

Small note, for most of verse 1, simple was actually bugged and somewhat cut down on grinding time or didnt affect it all that much by changing xp gain in a way that made the soft cap appear much later, yeah, the one that back then you had to do 20 events just to put in one point, im saying this as someone that used simple on almost all my builds from week 1 of verse 1 all the way to now, so personally, I saw it as a top tier from beginning to end, people called me a maniac and I did not care. Tl:Dr : simple was very funny and didn't work as intended for a long time so it was pretty much free boons lmao

[@jamesyung-ge9ic]

autodidact could be useful if your getting boosted by someone and gaining lots of event exp but low amounts of exp for your stats (ex: going an int build and your friend is boosting you with dukes) so i think its not useless i get that its a weaker boon compared to the other boons on the list but it does have some uses from my personal experience especially for speeding up the progress of early game, also just a side tangent is that there is a Regalia that helps with progression and with event exp from what ive heard so if you combined that with autodidact and adret you could have a way to progress through the game super quickly and easily compared to doing something like trial of courage if your new

[@teqnica-]

idk why, but yun'shul loves blessing my insanity build by giving me manic every time i re-make the build

[@mmmmchicken7176]

Fugitive honestly isnt that bad because most of the guards dont even attack you. It's basically like playing voidwalker, so if you use it with voidwalker it's pretty good. But, you will also get put on voidwalker bounty boards and get hunted so i guess that would be the main downside

[@iplayroblox112]

blind isnt bad its actually really good if you're going to get the "blindseer" oath, as if you have blind ness after you get the oath, it just negates to vision blurring and gives the map a new color scheme.

[@DoppRBX]

I always go autodidact on most of my builds, especially if deepbound or voidwalker. Training weapons is so tedious in depths unless if you're doing hell mode. But honestly, autodidact is so underrated, at least based on my own experience. It only takes about 4 hours to max power a mage build.

[@Geo34]

Alrighty, I agree with half your list, but your video was really good so you got the thumbs up flaw from me!

[@DevMetamorphic]

Finally someone who knows simple is GOATED

[@WorstAbaYT]

On an autodidact note I want to say how useful it is for power 20, I just stop using autodidact points at powers 16-20 and then have exactly 15 points to put into weapon or anything else as my last stat without a drawback since i wont need any exp now at power 20, makes finishing builds much easier

[@nonhero4198]

you should put blind in c/d tier because if your going blindseer its just a free flaw and then you pick manic and you have a flawless build only issue is that it only works for blindseer

[@stare1716]

[@bestcoolmanever]

People sleep on Gourmet but tend to forget that it stacks with the Gourmand talent. This causes even some of the worst foods and fruits in the game to become the most filling and easy to stock food sources in the game. You can turn things like a single Calabash into a supermeal that restores half of your hunger and thirst

[@ValensAces]

sorry i was late to this upload simon, good video nonetheless

[@Simon12135]

oh sup ace, glad you enjoyed

[@kyudomo]

great vid but the packmule hate can't stand. the food increase isn't to 25, it's a +3-5 (I forgot exactly how much) on most items that have a stack limit lass than 99, this is EXTREMELY beneficial to linkstrider builds as it actually allows them to have more than 10 stardust in their inventory, packmule the boon also stacks with pack mule the talent which then gives your food a max stack size of 20 (the 25 is a misconception because buying food at shops can glitch out your max stack until you eat the food)

[@Inamui]

Being blind in the depths used to be a death sentence since it was just pure black for blind players

[@qwertymchurty]

I play fugitive a lot, they recently made it so you don't immediately get attacked in the faction you spawn as, making it possible to do stuff

[@Simon12135]

did they?

[@qwertymchurty]

@@Simon12135 from my experience, yes I've made multiple characters using fugitive and I've noticed that for a while they don't even lock on to you, you can even talk to them and hit them a few times, at isles of vigils this gives you enough time to go to the bridge and server hop to farm event exp and rep from killing the 2 bandits over and over again

[@x4pika193]

also packmule doesnt allow u to carry 25 of a food that happens when you go to a food merchant with 0 of the food item and attempt to buy it, because you have 0 of that item the game doesn''t check to see if you will reach the cap of the food item so it just lets u buy up to 25 of it, however u cant by 25 of an item if u have a piece of that food in your inventory

Steadfast is actually kinda bad. If you pick up uh... That one talent that lets you get armor from simply killing things. Its pretty useless since now you just need to get enough armor reduction to allow your armor to last in multiple fights which is really easy to do with most mantras.

[@popilieslena4460]

I progged a whole visionshaper build with the blind flaw. I got nothing that helped improve my vision and it was also deepbound. It was really fun :D

[@CattosForLife]

fugitive flaw at lost celtor is death sentence not only you get chased by the horrors of deths but now guards too and only way is to ring all the 4 bells like 5 times...

[@NedHFlanders]

Blind can easily be a free point, it just takes practice. Ive gotten to the point where i can sail to TO1, win and get blindseer. Of course getting sent to the depths is a near death sentence but if you know a lot about your surroundings blind isn't that bad. Though i do suggest practicing with a blindfold first before doing a whole blind build.

[@Lavalinx]

I personally like running autodidact to save time since before I'd say power 12 autodidact DOES let you power up for free since the XP curve doesn't hit as hard and after power 12 I just stockpile points for level 20 and then shove them all in at the end to finish the build

[@someguy7743]

Not many people know this but the deer people are guided by naeve if i spelt that right, most people think it only slightly stops hunger but it actually increases your blinded vision, making blinded a little more easy for the deer people.

e tier for autodidact considerign the other boons is outrageous 3 levels is huge in trial. id reckon also using it if youir trying to equip a weapon, like if your power 17 and got all your stuff u just spam ur autodidact points and be able to use your wep or if your level 20 u just use them

[@DDK413]

I like autodidact with simple cause it negates the slowest effect of simple at power 20. The only time simple gets annoying is those last 15 points, and you can just save them with autodidact. And also like you said, 3 free power ups

Deficient is only noticeable when you have no Tempo left Basically, it makes it so that you suffer more against shadow users and in long drawn fights in general

[@Assumptionist]

honestly, coming from someone who's gone carnivore for 99% of their slots, vegeterian shouldn't be in d tier. i have a gremor slot with glutton (since gremor's got more hunger or slower drain i think) and vegeterian and it truly isn't that bad of a flaw or that harrowing or time-wasting. it's very easy to drop by a calabash bush when you're at etris or picking a tree full of redds to gobble them up. early-game it could be an issue, but you *also* get all of your stomach and thirst back upon a power up. only real issue is that the foods take up weight in your inventory. also, i don't think survivalist should be at c tier. i've had many instances where i stay in acid rain or glide in acid rain, and it's especially very useful for running layer 2 since your parasites take less time before they start going crazy, mainly near the beginning before and after you fight bonekeeper. if steadfast is an s tier, i believe survivalist and vegetarian could be bumped up. they're basically nonissues and just awesome to have, much like steadfast, except you don't need to grab an extra card for maximum usage,

tbh fugitive is not that bad if you have an antiquarian in your guild base and a blacksmith, one argument you could have is more voidwalkers on you but tbh i've had voidwalkers try to kill me as soon as i step out of the trial so it doesn't really matter, seems just like almost a free point, maybe it's because I don't stay around guarded places but doesn't seem too bad for me and also I never start a prog in any of the starting locations, it's either voidwalker or lone warrior
