You know, despite beating dominating I've never actually taken someone else's full build and used it, but I think this'll be the first one. It's the total opposite of how I've gotten used to playing. My playstyle with the sword has always been to soften the enemy with some form of ranged AoE/CC, then to rush in with adrenaline shot and contraction to finish everyone off. I usually don't even raise agility above 6.
I'll have to take a few notes for how I make my own builds.
I always put 10 special points into critical power despite never feeling like I needed the extra damage that late in the game. Glad to see a build that doesn't do that.
Gonna have to start taking Doctor's Pouch a whole lot more, though as someone who likes carrying around excessive amounts of gear and never takes off my waist pack that might be a struggle.
btw, why take Black Blade over the Sørmirbæren Skærder Sword for killing the natives? Killing unarmored targets is pretty much the only thing I've found the Skærder Sword to be useful for.
Funny, I originally got into playing the sword because so many people complained about how bad a weapon it was. If I'd found this back then I'd probably have picked up the blob pistol or something XD. tbh though, I'm glad I got to experience the game and draw my own conclusions a bit before being exposed to possible community bias, even if that meant wasting a few feat points.
Who knows, maybe I'll play a blob pistol + sword build at some point...
