Dark Urge, Evil Playthrough, Class ideas

[Ragnarok]

Im thinking of respeccing my Barbarian. It's not that I don't... enjoy the Barbarian. I do for sure love them, but was looking around for other class ideas. It also has to do with alot of the weapons.

I was thinking a Dual Wield fighter, but apparently there is multiclass?
Or Monk with unarmed.
But what about Warrior prot? Sword and Shield?
Paladin? This game is so good that its hard making decisions!

[Slaanesh]

There is a loooooooooooot of possibilities, depend if you want to make a broken build and follow a guide, or going with feeling.

Warrior and spore druid can be quite fun. Heavy armor, necrotic damage with the spore druid special ability, a little bit of support magic depending how much lvl you invest in it. You could do 2 weapon fighter with this, it's quite funny to play.

As for paladin... I think vengeance or oathbreaker with tempest cleric is one very powerfull multiclass.

Monk could go with thief (2 bonus action). You can also build it with warrior and spore druid, but it start to be complicated and you can easely mess up IMO, if you're not following guide or accustomed to multiclassing.

Paladin is suppose to be OP from what I heard.

I heard Oath of Vengeance Paladin is great for DU, but better for a Good DU run.

Go Tempest Cleric, blow up and knock around enemies with thunder and lightning like an evil force of nature. Cackle while doing so. Worship Talos the Stormlord for extra RP.

5/5/2 Storm Sorcerer/Archfey Warlock/Illusionist Wizard...you can only deal damage with Illusion/Enchantment spells and cantrips.

What about running Dual Wield fighter, with a barbarian multiclass? Would that provide the rage since Rage is BIG BAD OOGA BOOGAH?

Was also thinking of doing a Monk with big bad oogah boogah if Rage works with the Monks unarmed? Since if I run fighter first for heavy armor, and I just level up the Monk, wouldn't that mean my Monk is just a heavy armor wearing Monk?

Just some theory crafting right now. I def built my human DU for an evil playthrough and he isn't a spellcaster for sure. Defintely melee. Im thinking of running Paladin on my next run, but hard to say. I love Minthara but shes.... evil playthrough lol. Hmm. IDK!

Gotta just do some theory crafting and thinking


Edit: AH SHOOT! Just got some spoilers. I should have went Paladin from the start but now im starting act 3! NOOO!

How about a Paladin? Heck if your going to play as an evil one you might as well break your Paladin oath as well why you're at it.

Dual wield gloomstaler, possibly multiclass feels like it wold be good fit for dark urge from what ive seen from my bard urge playthrough XD you can even meme with BOOOOAL and get murder god sickle that doesnt scale with dex, meaning needs to be DW str/

Evil cleric seems like a good idea too, but we already have one.... which also has very interesting setup after act2. Ofc you can get her items for yourself and discard her....

Open Hand Monk. Rip and tear with your bare hands.

Sorcerer is one of the most fun playthroughs due to being a face character and not being reliant on gear to be strong.

Warlock is straight up busted if you abuse lightning charges but if playing dark urge you get locked out of a robe that breaks your EB damage.

Bard is fun, if you go college of swords you can have more attacks than a fighter by level 6. I like lore with 1 level in life cleric for support.

Paladin is okay, WAY too overhyped by the community however. It isnt in the top list of DPS or Tanks that you can make.

Bard/sorcerer is alot of fun, i went sword bard, but i wonder if i shoud've went lore, twin cutting words for cheap sorcery points sounds tempting...

Anyway that combo is alot of fun

Vengeance Paladin > Oathbreaker > Multiclassed into Warlock.

Perfect for an evil guy, and one of the strongest and fun multiclass at the same time.

I also had an idea of half-orc evil war cleric / monk multiclass.... Fully naked and reeducating goblins with flurries.

I was thinking who would be good class to use shadowblade, 2d8 shortsword that requires concentration and guess what... open hand monk doesnt concentrate on anything

Sorcerer seems good considering it is the default class. But you should try arranging spells with your wizard or Gale to know which spells to pick. Often times I respec simply because I picked the wrong spells.

The one I had most fun with is thief3/open hand9. You would punch harder than most weapons and be attacking at least four times each turn. On the other hand monks need good gears to function and you won't be hitting like that until very late.

Paladin is good for protagonist and a lot of fun trying to maintain your oath while playing the Urge. I find monoclass paladin a bit boring late game though. You would be erasing bosses but mobs are more frustrating late game so most of the time I was just a handicapped fighter.

Thought about sword bard but I had a hard time imaging DU being a bard. Like how was he murdering people to begin with?

[OnlyOffensive]

The thing that bugs me about whole wizard/sorcerer thing is that you can simply take 1 or more levels in wizard ( for spec ) and scribe scrolls for sorcerer.

Or do those spells scale from INT? And you will end up with separate spellbooks?

I did warlock/fighter as my evil dark urge playthrough. That was pretty fun. Pact of the sword meant I could have great cha and dex and not have to worry about str so much.
