Commando

Soldier + Demolitionist

A heavy mace & board soldier with a big focus in physical damage, with a very large importance in most of what the Soldier skill tree has to offer. Despite using slow mace for this build, with all the skills and gear associated with the build, we can achieve 3 hits a second, and because we use a mace, those 3 hits hurt! This is a pure physical damage build, relying on our “human” abilities and nothing else.

All pet soldier skills are the main focus for this build, if that wasn’t clear enough already. While leveling, feel free to bring Cadence up to its max of 16, we have it set to 11, as all the gear we use brings its total up to 26 total, so we lose the remainder skill points put to it. Otherwise, the rest of the skills are your choice. We want to use Blitz as much as possible, so naturally we’ll max it out. We have a total of 5 toggle skills on at all times, maxing out the Soldier skills, and only the skills that provide physical damage from the Demolitionist tree. The remainder of the skills are passives or used situationally, Break Morale should be used as you engage enemies, and Overguard can both be used as a healing effect, and/or a damage increase thanks to our gear choice. Until the gear can be found, use it as a backup healing effect. 

This will be your starting class, this class will be your primary focus throughout the entire build. We invest very heavily in all skills of this class. Starting with Cadence, this skill will be our left-mouse button ability, activating every time we attack. Blitz will be our right-mouse button ability. Everything else is a passive ability or a toggle ability, barring a select few. Menhir’s Bulwark and Oleron’s Rage are both Exclusive skills, I’ve chosen the former for survivability while still offering some Physical type damage. If you find yourself not utilizing this added survivability, swap it out for Oleron’s Rage for extra damage.

This will be your secondary class, with little focus in its tree or skills. We’ll grab the 2 toggle skills that offer added physical damage, and the bare minimum in it’s mastery bar. This class is simply a filler and adds a nice increase to our offensive capabilities, our main focus is the Soldier class.
