    I haven’t dabbled in the market just yet. I should have awhile back. I just wanted to get a feel for the game, see the options available to me and then maybe have some idea of what to trade for.

    For my merc, a decent crossbow with a useful implicit is obvious enough, but aside from that and more skill support slots, I don’t really know what I should be focusing on. It’s one of the reasons I haven’t been trading at all yet. The other two are still very much in the campaign crunch and don’t need any trade just yet.

    I’m a bit lost on where I want my sorc to go… I thought I had a plan, but attempting it didn’t work out at all, so I took a break from her in act 1b to gather myself and have a good think about it.

    And I wanted to try a bonk man, so I made one. Outside of the act 2 boss I ran into last night, I’ve been cruising through pretty nicely. Nothing else has even been a blip on the difficulty radar.

    Update: I augmented my flask with another modifier and managed to squeak out a win. It wasn’t pretty, but it did work. And since then I have had no issues. My dps is ever so slightly dropping off, but I can still clear the room in a couple attacks, and in a few more levels my attack will be back on the rise.

      That’s cool, I’m really excited for you…so much to discover!

      There’s a lot of value in figuring out your own path when making builds, but it can really be overwhelming at first because the gearing and itemization choice is quite deep compared to other games. If you’re feeling stuck on your merc, consider checking out a few build guides on the mobalytics website to see what others are doing and try to adapt what you find for your build. If you search through and find a couple that use the same main skill you’d like to use, you might find some common patterns between them which could be useful.
