Making a Voodoo Character

[colt45skeeter]

Hi there! I got the game and am one of those people who really love to (but stress over) making a fun character but not really knowing how to go about it. I mostly just want to go for a spooky cackling halloween store witch and cast curses and spells on people. Is it very feasible to do that at the start or do i need rely on other skills for the most part? Really just asking for any advice you guys would have on making a voodoo build since i really dont know much about what im getting into and while i love figuring it out for myself i kinda hate gimping myself in the start because i didnt know what i was doing

If you talk to the dudes that are about to raid the banana plantation, you can learn a few spells to get yourself started. I don't really recommend going full voodoo if you don't know what you're doing though

Ah I understand that. Is it particularly syngerstic with another combat skill like melee or guns?

Voodoo builds practically require a secondary combat ability due to their hefty meta cost. I personally invest in melee as a form of extra challenge, but guns are easier, and don't cost meta to throw bullets.

Either way, I'd spec at least a little into agility, because most (useful) spells have a limited range, and you don't want to be getting shot at any longer than you have to.

So yeah, don't rely 100% on voodoo. It'll let you down, or just be a really long waiting game.
