What have been some of your takeaways and must haves?

Lost the first one to w’wargaz as I thought I could do it without a throw barb ( could not ) Cut to him summoning 3 swords at every party member. That dude is no joke with the legendary actions.

Started a new one playing as gale. Died early but chose to continue for practice. Ketheric was next trouble. He seems like a multi attack check. If you’re not aware every death within 40 feet of him is a new undead aoe birth. Dual crossbow thief warrior for crowd and oathbreaker for single target damage. About to go against the aspect and semi dreading it.

Only cleared about half of act 3 in the past, but plan to finish it with this gale honor practice save.

What have been your key takeaways from honor mode? Any must have builds or gear for your personal playstyle?

It’s been a good step up from tactician feeling different but not overly bs imo.

    I struggled with it a bit at first, probably because I hadn’t spent a ton of time in Tactician, so I was learning multiple layers of things in some encounters. With my current run, I’ve got all of the Act 2 map open but I haven’t started delving other than the Meenlock fight. Came very, very close to ending my run in the Owlbear Cave and with Grym.

    At this point I’m running into the same issue I always have on hardcore/ironman/nuzlocke-style runs; I’ve passed the initial touch-and-go stage and reached the point where I’m confident in taking on fights, but I feel compelled to grind on lesser stuff before I proceed in order to give myself the best chance for the bigger stuff. I haven’t even done all of the Creche yet. I haven’t touched the run in weeks because it feels like work at this point.
