This was easily the best video I've found explaining the crucible specifics. I enjoy running the crucible but had a hell of time finding good info really digging into it. Really appreciate all the work you put into this. When in doubt, excel spreadsheet it out. Solid work man.
Hey Mike, picked up the game yesterday. Been enjoying it so far, I knew I needed more info on the game and all it has to offer. Thanks for taking the time to make this video, it has really helped me as a new player.
And I just learned about Crucible Merits at the start of this video - after painfully grinding through the first two difficulties of crucible for the third time...
i didnt forget! i purposely left it out lol. But I am pinning your comment. the video was already 11 minutes long without talking about this. heres a steam guide for how that works steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=746171720
tbf it couldve been one of those things where you were like *oh and you can also buy devotion points with it, whatever* in like a 5-sec short segment just to get it out there
You have really well structured info. thanks 4 that. 1) You arent awarded any score points if defensive shooting towers last hit enemies, stonewall and vanguard banners dont penalize Your score as far as I know. 2) I didnt know about disabled arcane heroes thanks! does Grava Thul count as well? shes able to cast nulification orbs. 3) I find crucible much more chalenging than SR as in SR on higher shards bosses are spaced quite widely which makes fights more manageable, while in Cr 6 or so nemesises ganging up is very stressful at times. On the flipside Cr has no goddamned environmental hazards.
Could it be an extra roll on an legendary item depending on your score per chest? I never really did like when they added this to the game tbh as we had to buy it and at the time there was a content gap and this just changed the meta on the forums to Gladiator builds. I support Crate 100% tho and bought all there expansions including crucible, It really is the best single player ARPG of modern times. My only real issue is that when Act 3 boss was finally implemented there was a huge nerf so many casuals complained and the game changed for ever, its never been the same since. Some tweak attempts have been made to difficulty modes but honestly its nothing like the old difficulty and crucible created many gladiator builds spewing and churning out gear at an extreme rate, power creeping every one extremely quickly to the point where the gear was flowing so much and it really diminished the main game and trade value of items. All my hours of gear grinding and personal achievements diminished over night with this easy mode crucible. tldr: if your mad about ARPG games dont play crucible until you got some hours into grim dawn or it will ruin your item hunt experience. Getting your fist legendary through questing or via the game world does not compare to crucible.
Most f*cking frustrating thing about crucible and idk why no one anywhere talks about this in general with grim dawn is the fucking dash spam. How is it no matter how I relocate myself the boss will dash all the way around a hill, up a path around a corner and slam into you for half of your HP nonstop over and over with zero cooldown. You cannot actually get away in any circumstances.
any chance you can link me your warlord build please? (new to warlord), I have some endgame gear from my other toons and Warlord seems like the best playstyle for me, thanks man love the content
I havent played a Warlord since before the nerfs. Some good guides here though forums.crateentertainment.com/t/build-compendium-x-forgotten-gods/49673/9
Dont do this, start at wave 100 then clear to 110 and cash in, much faster and cost efficient rather than going to 150 wave 100 has a high chance of legendary so theres really no point in going further
I only bought crucible because I love this game so freaking much I want to support the developer. But as I got it I might as well spend 14 levels on it farming for 5 points of devotion. But farming there? Nah, not really my style. I love to just hit and kill and get some loot even if it has lower yield.
What’s up Mike. Bro I hope you can get you’re pet conjurer to 100 so we can smash some shtuff with my poison pet Dervish. We were talking last night btw. Sjthomley on steam.
Crucible loot was updated in patch 1.1.9.2 just FYI so loot spreadsheets are not updated for this. I will update some time next year 🤣
at this point the game guide on the official website should just point to your channel. great stuff
Can't believe this was a Kickstart. JESUS am I sick of missing all the projects I would back.
You are truly the most comprehensive Grim Dawn youtuber that I know of! Keep the amazing content coming!
Much appreciated.

Dude! Keep up the great work!
My friend and I do totem runs. Gets us like 8-10 an hour.
Yes of course you get a Sub. Very informative and showing you isn't bad as well.. keep up....
Crucible or SR for farming with the latest patch? Thanks for all the work you put into these videos!
SR all the way
Very good and informative video. Thx!
So there is no crucible specific loot?
"If you die in here you die in real-life" xD
Just like the Matrix! O.o
Was going to make the same comment, lmao!
I just enjoy the crucible more than the shattered realm.
Good stuff! You might wanna see a doctor though... that coughing can get you quarantined nowadays.
What are the class?

Did you run the average bits made from selling all the trash item drops?
Yup. I had bits picked up and then bits total after vendoring trash items.
thanks
