Struggling with the bonk lifestyle
The title says it all really. I have a lot of hours clocked in outward but almost all of them have been with casters, daggers, halberds, 2H swords, bows, and 1H sword/maces. I want to try a physical damage bonk build and likely with speedster (maybe monk and hunter, but not I am open to other suggestions).
I am in the early game right now, I picked up speedster, I just finished getting my vampiric great mace, and… I feel really slow and weak compared to my other builds. Purple ghosts are wrecking me right now. I don’t have a range, damage, or speed advantage. I have a hunch 2H mace really needs to rely on brace to create openings which I don’t have yet.
How do you make it through the early game with 2H maces? or are they just a slower start than the other weapon types? What strategies and tactics do you use?
