updated class guides?

[DrwHem]

so i stopped playing this game in Jan when a group of bear absolutely destroyed me. Id like to give it another go but all the class guides are months old and i know that this is not a dead game so thing have changed in 9 months. Anyone able to link me to accurate builds ect?

Was your squad destroyed by bears? Did you play in January? You may have encountered a bug. Around the same time, I had two encounters with undying bears. But this bug was quickly fixed. Since then I haven't risked playing Iron Man. Of course, a lot has changed since January. A lot, you won't recognize the game. You'll have to start on low difficulty to get used to it. Then you can increase the difficulty.

Mind find some on the discord. I do not think there is a cookie cutter build/group template tho cuz of all the variations

anyone have opinions on what the best tank class is? i have a protector and a vanguard(the heavy armor guy with the 1 hand mace) but i seem to take a lot of damage.

Swordsman - Fighter or Brute - Destroyer
Both are solid walls & can hit very very hard.

Fighter is better against DOT, Destroyer has better damage reduction.

Im still working on updates for my build guide

What you need to do is to learn the basics of the game, not the classes. If you got killed by a group of bears.. obviously you lack the basic understanding on how the game works. Its almost impossible to die fighting agains a group of bears (or most animals for the matter) unless you dont have a clue what you doing.

If you struggle with bears just use DoT damage on em, specially bleeding. This will make things way easier. Also classes are very straight forwards there is no real learning courve about them. The only difference between a subclass is just a skill, nothing more. The rest is up to you how you synergy all your companions.

Maybe you dont have enough guard in that tank. Having a lot of armor is almost useless if your guard isnt high as well.
