What have been some of your takeaways and must haves?
Lost the first one to w’wargaz as I thought I could do it without a throw barb ( could not ) Cut to him summoning 3 swords at every party member. That dude is no joke with the legendary actions.
Started a new one playing as gale. Died early but chose to continue for practice. Ketheric was next trouble. He seems like a multi attack check. If you’re not aware every death within 40 feet of him is a new undead aoe birth. Dual crossbow thief warrior for crowd and oathbreaker for single target damage. About to go against the aspect and semi dreading it.
Only cleared about half of act 3 in the past, but plan to finish it with this gale honor practice save.
What have been your key takeaways from honor mode? Any must have builds or gear for your personal playstyle?
It’s been a good step up from tactician feeling different but not overly bs imo.
As a gith your weapons should be one of these two:

The first one you can get in the creche by killing the lady with the two wolves. The second you can get from Voss in act 1 by making him drop it or act 3 by killing him or accepting his quest. Getting Voss to drop it in act 1 is very dicey without a specific setup so make sure you research how to do it if you want that one early.
