Some of the classes looked cool, but I am skeptical that it will all work well together and am not sure I want to time sink to find out. Synergies I know is solid, but I tried the HACKANDSLASH essentials mod today for a bit and it’s a massive hodgepodge of a ton of other mods. With Sensless at about level 65 or so dropping loot down to all of us, it’s been really easy to build characters back up once they are toast… but when he croaks during some Mapworks misshap, who will help then?

Outlanders, well, no one plays them that I know, so I’ve never seen one in action that I could say– “wow that’s cool!” I built a close combat Outlander but the build is only viable once you get BURNING LEAP at level… 35! As soon as I got that high, the character died almost instantly. Likely because I’ve played Berserkers for so long that I want to try something new, and that’s been the outlander. My problem is that I get finicky about my class selection and just can’t stick with one character. Needless to say, Hardcore TL2 is a harsh mistress. Torchlight 2 addiction is in full swing, so there hasn’t been the normal cavalcade of posts about stuff recently.
