Highest damage per turn
Since the polymorph update the 2H elf knight gets a lot stronger. Give him +1 in polymorph so u can use Skingraft. Make sure he has Rage and Adrenaline, which u can get early game by eating the flesh u find on the ship right at the beginning.
I think this is the strongest build right now. It also works well as a Ranger(Bow or Crossbow) or a pure firemage.

Everything + skin graft + adrenaline = really strong.
Add Haste to it and you'll get even more out of it (although you have to wait 1 round for the effect.

Im 100% sure that this combo will get nerfed quite hard on release though, so have fun using it as long as its available.

Wouldn't Haste work with the custom source ability that lets you have another turn right away for extra brokenness?

Yeah, but Time warp is completly broken anyway, since the cooldowns dont work correctly. With that glitch + adrenaline you have infinite AP.

I went 1H + shield with my Warfare guy to see how it was, so maybe a 2H build would be deadly.

But, my Scoundrel by far outdamaged any other character, often able to outright kill an annoying archer or mage in the first (and he always went first with high Wits). Never used Adrenaline, but did use Flesh Sacrifice when with 1 more attack I could kill something.

As for nerfs, I bet Throwing Knife will get nerfed big. That skill with Backstab would destroy 200+ physical armor, 100 magic armor, and do 70% vitality damage; no other skill comes close to what I've seen that do.

I came up with an idea to give my firemage daggers so she can use the Scoundrels Source-Spell (Don't know the name anymore). Rage and Savage Sortile working fine together. I don't know wether they stack or not and if, how, but I really wanna see a 750% Fireball (1 * 150% * 500% ?) .

If you already know, tell me. Otherwise I will have to do another run. :D

Mortal Blow, the Scoundrel source point skil that gives 500% dmg is dagger based I think; I don't see how it would apply to another skill either. It isn't a buff you cast and then attack, it's an attack in itself. MB then Fireball would be just that, not MB buff with no attack then Fireball.

Oh ... yeah, you're right. I was getting too excited about my thoughts :steamfacepalm:

I'm not sure why certain sole skills should be nerfed.Why should a rogue not deal big damage? It's his task. I see more a problem in the easy combination of certain skills from different schools. I would prefer if some skills were only available with more ability points in the school.

I have a two-handed warrior, elf rogue and glass-cannon ranger in my group. Much depends on items of course but they are frequently not able to kill important enemies in one turn. However, if the physical armor is gone and my Cleric comes near, more or less any enemy is toast.

using ballistic shot, with hunts+scundrel, my hits go for 2.8k damage in one shot . :o
