PILLARS OF ETERNITY II BEST MAIN CHARACTER BUILD FULL
If you want to focus on creating a two-handed melee build, you will benefit from selecting the following background skills during character creation (for a full breakdown of background skills, see Defining Background Skills):įamily - ’Urban Blacksmith:’ +10 Skill Level and 1 Focus Point to Smithing and Two-Handed weapons. In this scenario a two-handed build can thrive on defeating multiple enemies quickly, especially with the superior reach over one-handed weapons and the higher base damage.
The best way to do this is by running parallel to enemy ranged units, and swiftly zig-zagging toward them as you force them to enter melee combat. If you are committed to a two-handed build, you will need to focus on maintaining good footwork to avoid incoming projectiles. The main disadvantage of this build is your vulnerability to ranged units. You will be able to execute both swing and strike attacks through multiple enemies, and you can increase the speed at which they hit by sprinting toward your target and moving your mouse in the direction of attack at the same time. The main advantage comes in battles which are fought in close quarters, away from the line of sight of archer, crossbow, and throwing weapon units. This is by far the most aggressive melee build on foot that you can create. A two-handed build in Bannerlord will allow you to maximise damage and speed with two-handed axes and swords.
