Best multiclasses?
I beat the game with monk on POTD when it first came out, but gonna try the game with some mods next. Wondering what multiclasses you guys used and liked.

On my first run I used Mindstalker but it was on Veteran.

I would say any bleak walker paladin multiclass would work. They are just insane.

Hellwalker monk is also famous from what I have seen on forums

anything with mage is really powerfull, since you as in any kind of these games only need mirror image to be OP, you should be careful with multiclassing, most of them are terrible, fighter, mage blend best with others since they are most powerfull since start.

Cipher kinda bad multiclass, since it doesnt have any real self utility like mages and gimping it makes it almost useless, when i tried pirate cipher/barbarian it was most useless character i ever created on potd, cant do anything.

I really liked paladin+chanter, its like ultimate support unit and pretty fun to play imo.

My favorite multiclass is fighter / paladin / barbarian / thief

I wish to be able to play monk, but monk class doesnt fit western games canon, so I just pretend that monk doesnt exist.

Got similar problem with barbarian, but somehow in this game i can tolerate barbarian nonsense.

So basicly I love melee classes.

And I dont like spellcasting multiclases.

I like Paladin with anything because auras with bonuses. One of interesting combos I tried was Paladin/Barbarian with pistols. You focus on bonuses to dmg from flames of devotion on paladin and get speed from barbarian frenzy. It pumps out damage like crazy

Dont listen to Zangori guys, he's a known troll and banned from 5+ cRPG forums and is also known for being bad at all the games he plays, so never listen or take advice from him.

im doing a shield bearer pally and unbroken fighter in my first POTD run. seems pretty good so far as a super tank and healer. idk about "best" but it seems very capable.

Priest/lifegiver druid, a walking healbot with decent corrosive output.

Hunter is probably the strongest character in the early game i ever had and actually, i had to check if the difficulty was really POTD.

Boreal Dwarf
Devoted (hunting bow)
Sharpshooter (wolf)

Very high perception
high dexterity and might
Very high Metaphysic

I'm a little bit worry on how strong or weak he gonna be in end game...

I quite liked spellblade (rogue+mage). The high damage output and crits from dual weapons combined with enchanting protective spells compensating the rogue native weakness and low hp was neat.

Paladin/Chanter and Rogue/Monk are 2 of the most powerful multiclasses.

My char is a monk helwalker / thief assassin multiclass with dualwield melee, it's so good and ultra fast between attacks.

My favourite so far is a monk barbarian, high perception Crit build. Helwalker mage slayer

i had a lot of fun with Spiritualist. I used Troubador Chanter and Psion Cipher. The really cool thing about this build is that you get resources out of nowhere, so you can just cast and cast while the fight lasts

I love my Battle Mage (Fighter "Devoted" / Wizard). Self-protection enchantments galore (shield, mirror image, elemental shield, arcane veil, stone skin, lengrath safekeeper....) All the while wielding the Watchersblade and kick ass with "martial eduction". The last one is really op with a devoted fighter as the +2 penetration for the sword count for unarmed too.

Hi everyone, i was looking for some sort of tier list for classes, SC or MC in POE2 on current patch. Couldn't find anything so maybe you guys can help me out with picking class for my second playthrough. Thanks in advance for any tips and info.
