Best use of unique charms

[LeoinFL]

By now most know to put the Reaper charm from the Spear of Achilles on a bow. What are some other good combinations ? I ll start:

Using low profile from Julias hood on a helmet for Syneros - (or another support who rarely kills As an archer she is super active and that hood useless on her, On a medic , flag-waiver with not a lot of armor it works very well.

Putting the charm from Occams Razor on a better weapon for the Veles class

The "Ruthlessness of the Golden Wolf" on a weapon for a Veles with Kill on Ground.

I'm not going to argue that Barrage + Reaper is clearly the strongest combo in the game right now, but the Reaper nerf wasn't that bad for the other classes also.

It's a little harder to pull off continuous streaks on my Triarius, but it's still very possible to rack up kills like before. Some movement still gets restored w/ your Action point, just not all of it.

This would have probably been a lot easier if it wasn't the start of Act 3 and I haven't found a level 3 staff blueprint just yet.

You should never dismantle Occam's Razor, considering that this weapon has a better base damage than it's purple counterpart of the same tier, and use it in main hand with a Veles + a dagger with good skills in offhand.

Regarding interesting charm interactions, I like to put Caeso's helmet charm on Calida's hood, because she can reliably trigger critical strikes with the weapon skill Overdrawn shot and taunt this way. Sometimes even more than once if she kills an untrained enemy and switches to a second bow with the same skill. And since she is behind everyone, this triggers a lot of interesting interactions, like:
-An enemy will go past your melee characters and trigger a lot of AoO by trying to reach Calida.
-An enemy that doesn't have a straight path towards Calida because one of your characters is blocking it at a chokepoint will try to reach Calida by taking a huge detour, usually wasting his whole turn moving away.

Destroyer with the unique wakamassan staff upgraded to grade 3 is legit scary. I think my syneros with reckless on was doing upwards of 50 damage, you can basically either kill anyone with one turn or get them knocked down if they survive, to which you can end them with a javelin. Medics definitely should be carrying pikes with ready around while destroyers definitely should roll with a staff with some sort of debuff built in due to their multihit nature.
