Frustrated fighter.

xiret

Hi everybody,

I'm an occasional player that somehow managed to reach lvl 60 with my Guardian Fighter. Since I don't play much often (say couple of times a week), I always took a lot of time to cope with the changes of each module.
Because of this, I always struggled to have fun with the game since I always ended up having an underperforming build, because there was too much to know and change to have really fun with my character.
I couldn't do any dungeon either because soloing was impossible, or either because other people didn't want me to join because of my weak build.
I had issues also with PVE, because the enemies were always much stronger than me.
Just to let you understand better, I started Icewind Dale since day 1 of publishing, and I managed to get the fourth piece of Ice armor just a month ago! And I was also so much disappointed by that armor btw.

Now a lot of new changes came up, and I uninstalled the game out of frustration, but I miss a lot my pg.
There is anyone here that can point me to a pve solo build that let me at least enjoy the pve content?
I'm sorry for the vent, but I had to tell someone.

well since mod6 iwd,dread ring etc are lvl 70content. and you pj is 60......, i no know what is your play style; but if you want try a conqueror build

I would say go Conq till you get to lvl 70 (Vigilant tasks started by the Druid dude sitting by the big a** tree in PE).
Conq is a dps spec for a GF, and it can work really well while leveling to lvl cap.

Than it's all about how you want to play. I personally went Protector as Conq won't enable you to be a proper tank in dungeons/party play.

I feel ya brother! Here is what I was running up until 70. http://nwcalc.com/index.html#/gf?b=299i:yxeq76:9mbd:5tb7d,13i950k:1zu5051:1000000:1u00000&h=0&p=smr It worked pretty good but you will never be top or even close to top dps. We're tanks and not really built to do tons of damage. I would get really excited to see 100k crits with my dps build... that's not very much. Anywho, my at wills were Crushing Surge, Weapon Masters Strike, My encounters changed all the time but lunging strike was always in. I also liked Into the Fray, Anvil of Doom, and Flourish while playing solo. Combat superiority and Steel def will help tons as well. Good luck! Once you hit 70 rework to a tank and make the Pally's look bad!

I can ensure y GF coq is the best class in the game you shoud not have any issue to play this game .

The reason you struggle is you folow really bad or outdated builds currently all GF keep they build as secret.

I can link you one build but only feats powers are buggen on feat calk.

Ability roll your char full STR and CON nothing else matter to GF.

No problem with pve content, and pvp. except stamina drainers.
