GreedFall allows its players to build all kinds of characters in order to give players the opportunity to define their own game-plays. Players can build through a set of Skills, Attributes, Talents, Gear, Amulets and Necklaces to achieve a desirable game-play.
The Battle Mage Build
Primarily for players who love playing aggressive and offensive. This build isn’t complex at all, it consists of increased defense, attack speed and tonnes of damage with heavy weapons.
Skills
Start with adding points to the Stasis skill tree, going all the way towards Storm, including Shield of the Enlightened.
Although, you can choose between the Fury or Storm abilities since both of them require a maxed fury meter. In my opinion, Fury works better for this build when compared to Storm.
For the red part, add points to the tree above One-Handed Heavy Weapons, then to Two-Handed Heavy Weapons, and eventually to Fury. You will be using One-Handed Heavy Weapons all the way up to mid-game.
Two-Handed Weapons stun your enemies in an easier way when compared to One-Handed Weapons. The Seismic Shock and Shock Wave abilities can potentially stun and imbalance your enemies when activated.
Add points to Powerful Fury and Regenerative Fury. The former will stun your opponents while the latter heals you and recovers your armor upon activating Fury. In the last, add points to Magic Healing, all the way up to Group Healing. This will remove poison while healing you at the same point.
Attributes
The two primary attributes for this build are Endurance and Strength.
You will need to level Endurance up to 3 to wear heavier armor, and Strength up to 4 to get the health boost you require to be an effective front liner. In the last, Level Willpower up to 2 in order to wear better necklaces and amulets.
Talents
Go with your choice here, although Science is useful for this build as it enables you to craft potions like fury or resistance that are quite useful in combat.
Gear
Simply use the best gear that you have at the moment. Primarily the gear that gives the most armor and balance. Use the Hourglass Chain to increase Stasis duration and get a high magic regeneration to spam Stasis and Heals.
