✎ Character Creation
♦ Starting Attributes:
  • 10 Might
While the build can make use of Might scaling, Helwalker Monk have provided plenty enough Might so you better off investing points elsewhere.

  • 13 Constitution
A little bit more beefy, reaching 360+ HP at level 20 and over 400+ when under effect of CON inspirations/buffs.

  • 15 Dexterity
Fighter and Monk tree grants the character alot of recovery/action speed bonus along with even more bonus from gear, so the build already have alot of stacking speed for fast attacks on Greatsword.

  • 20 Perception
The more critical hits, the more additional attack procs from Monk tree, and more on hit effect procs from other sources. So the higher the Perception the better, and to both use Greatsword Modal and score Crits effectively, it's recommended to have a Priest in party to boost the character Accuracy even further.

  • 10 Intellect
While Intllect is quite useful, for longer buffs and bigger AoE to control crowds even better, Monk and equipment used in this build provides alot of Intellect bonus so leavingi t at default is good enough.

On PoTD, why helwalker over other monk? The might scaling is helpful, but the increased damage seems like it'd make this character very difficult to play on harder difficulties.

@MortErik use "The White that Wends" culture

How do you get 20 Perception? that is not an option for me.

onizorimura Yes, you need DEX to play rogue in ANY mode.

Lost Sinner, any advice for this build on turn based mode? I'm kinda dumb and was wondering if I would need dexterity for turn based mode.
