Best DPS build currently?

[arrow90420]

What's up guys this is the very first discussion that I participate in Grim Dawn
I have been playing a little less than 300 hours and I still wonder what is the best DPS build now.
By saying "the best DPS" here I meant top-tier DPS and reasonably good survival ability (does not have to be extremely tanky but no glass cannon).

A friend of mine said he saw that DW blademaster is the best in almost every perspective but I think I saw some people said DW blademaster ruled the meta long time ago but not the best for now.

So I just feel very curious about what is the best class/build overall.
I know the answer depends on what each of you think but I still wanna know.

I also wonder between pierce DW blademaster and DW infiltrator which is considered to conquer 150-170 crucible more quickly assuming that both characters are fully equipped.

Look at builds marked with C+.

Unless you can beat 6 minutes 150-170 with 4 buffs, it's this Witching Hour Pet Cabalist build

That is comical how quickly enemy health bars drop.

Pierce Belgothian Blademaster, cold Korba Trickster and chaos Darkblaze Pyromancer are easily my top dps builds currently.
They're not quite reliable for 150-170 Gladiator though, especially the cold build. For those waves, you'd better go for some caster Hourglass build, or immortal shield tank, or pet build.

P.S.: that Witching Hour build is ridiculously insane o.o

That witching hour build main focus demands on pet critical and damage only. Nothing really over the bubble for me, also if it steps on acid wonder what happens...

My DarkBlaze Pyro can make mince meat out of endgame content but because of fragility still doesnt compare to that build. I think I am going to make one just to see how ridiculous it is myself. I have the gear stored up and a non pet Level 100 cabalist that is Meh.

Poison resist is plugged via Blood of Dreeg. Somehow the build calculator doesn't show that.

Is there any c+ g1 build?

[Faust Wither]

there always pro and cons. if i after best damage Hand of ultos + mogdrogen howl and take all devotion that support OA pet, convert the vitality damage of skeleton to Lightning, use spark of ultos, stormbringer of malmouth & voidmancer cord. to bad i'm keep dying so i can't collect them all.

Wow this pet build is just crazy. Do you know how long does it take to beat 150-170 crucible with no buffs?

Pyromancer seems to be great as a lot of you guys recommend it. I will definitely consider playing it LoL

I rarely play pet characters, so I can't comment on those. I'll vote for Darkblaze Pyromancer as well, for non-pet characters anyway. That is a very powerful build.
