Purifier builds?

[BattleBard]

Anyone got any links to some really good purifier builds?

What type of Purifier builds? https://www.grimtools.com/calc/q2MMkB72 duel-wield pistol build that melts almost everything before it. http://www.grimdawn.com/forums/showthread.php?t=67726 is a pistol & shield build that stacks a lot of DA to maximize the damage of 4 Mortar Traps.

I'm not sure that a level 100 character with Legendary and Mythical sets of gear is a practical example for someone who may well be starting from scratch. Looks to me like your response is just saying "Look at all the cool gear I have!". For that matter, it may not even be a real character. You can make up anything you want using Grimtools.

To the OP: What level is your purifier ... or have you even started one yet?

PS: Love your thumbnail portrait. One of the funniest fantasy anime ever, and it's criminal it wasn't picked up for an entire season.

I would recomment to start lvl 1 Inquisitor and go with either soldier or shaman as second class if you want a good tank/sustain, or go demolition as second class to be pure ranged dps and somewhat squishy max out deadly Aim since it is your damage source other then cadence/savagery or flamestrike. from then on skill what ever you need, normal/veteran isn't too difficult for a beginner Inquisitor.

The "super obvious build" for purifier (dw fire strike with inquisitor wps) is fine without any specific gear; you basically kill everything at low levels by accident with proc skills and the aura, so you have plenty of time to drop decent gear for higher levels. And 2h is also effective, superfluff made a great one https://www.grimtools.com/calc/DV95MGWV
The relative equality between 2h and dw is helpful because if you're dropping the right gear for one and not the other, the skills are basically all interchangeable. Which leads me to the one crappy thing about the fire strike purifier, which is that all of the builds are about 90% identical because certain skill choices are sort of obiligatory.

Oh, and by the way all the excessively min-maxy legendary "wishlists" that people make their builds with are largely unnecessary. Obviously if you don't have these particular legendaries by the time you get there, you'll miss some +skills and maybe a few skill conversions/modifiers, but it's pretty unlikely that it would totally kill the build even if you're stuck on random blues.

There are other fun little setups that go a bit more outside the box, for instance Thrasheur's nade spammer (several variants here http://www.grimdawn.com/forums/showthread.php?t=66783 and the current main is https://www.grimtools.com/calc/62a6zxEV )
Try playing that one without yelling "Attica! Attica!"

Honestly there are so many options with the huge amount of synergy between these two masteries that it's pretty difficult to fail with any build. There are some solid pure caster purifiers out there too, but I can't think of any examples off the top of my head.

Well, Purifier being a combination of Inquisitor (ranged weapons) and Demolitionist (fire and lightning specialist), you are pretty much going to want gear that buffs those skills/damage types.
Quickdraw Gloves, for example, boost attack speed, while things like Devil-touched Ammunition and Hexxer's Kiss augments pump up fire damage. If you go with rifle instead of DW pistols, you need Kraken as a devotion.

So, yeah, there's a certain amount of cookie cutter type Builds, but there is some flexibility in the details.

The whole point of ranged weapons is to avoid melee, so you will be kiting around a lot. Get footgear that adds to move speed, and stick Mark of the Traveller on it. (Note that move speed cannot go above 135%).

Word of Renewal is a nice healing alternative to healing elixirs, but once you get further down that skill tree, you will want to have it up all the time. Steel resolve is especially useful, as it not only adds to your total health, but also to your offensive capablity.

When you first start out, it doesn't really matter which profession you pick as your starting one. If you go Inquisitor, any pistols you find will likely be crap, and you may well have no ammo whatsoever. Likewise, if you start with Dmolitionist, your attack skills are pretty restricted. Luckily, levels 1-10 are pretty easy.

Well, Inquisitor is not bound to ranged weapons, more like elemental damage.

I'm running an Ignaffar Purifier build atm and its totally doable.
So far only nemesis forced me to kite and thats no problem with Blackwater Cocktail and Inquisitor seal to drop regularly on them.

[frdnwsm]

Inquisitor can use any type of weapon/attack mode. It is clearly designed to let those who are so inclined use ranged weapons effectively, however. Also, Demo is far more elemental damage based than Inquisitor.

Edit: When I first created my Inquisitor, I had really crummy yellow pistols. Not having any Demo yet, I ignored elemental stuff and stuck mutagnic ichor on each, whch gave me DoT damage as well as poison cloud blast as a secondary attack. I didn't start pumping up fire damage until I had some Demo ranks in Fire Strike and Flame Touched.
