Grim Dawn | Twink Your Alts | Beginner Friendly Guide | Patch 1.2 | April 2024

hello welcome back to the channel I'll keep this one quick this is a video about all the well most of the items and things that you can put in stash for your new character to pick up and use from start of the game or any character but it's it's mostly about if you create a new character what can you do what can you stick on that character to make the process easier so I've got um the Explorer set if you if you got the blueprints for this you say why has he crafted all those trousers right so you can craft a tunic and you can craft trousers you might get the other items drop the hat and the boots isn't it if you don't get yourself one of those make three TR I've just found the trousers are easier to make trouses just need that that needs a dense first you got crafted anyway whatever go to your transmute character there either this guy here or the one in Devil's Crossing it's the cas br's assistant it's the same old thing right so have a look at have a look at the these trousers and see which ones are the best just have a quick look so I've got 30 physique 4% movement um 29 six arguably that one slightly better so look at that one 24 pH 4% 5% 29 10 okay yeah it doesn't really make an awful lot of difference early in the game right so those two if you had one that was massively better keep it so that's the one that's the one I'm going to keep these are the two I'm going to transmute so what I want is and you need loads of essence I mean if you're not massively far on in the game you've only got two or three of them don't waste it on doing this just don't right so that's wasted that's wasted that's wasted that's not wasted and that was lucky okay so I got an Explorer set now why is that good well because it gives you 5% experience gain on each bit and the if you put on let's take this stuff off a sec right so if you put it all on you get 8% total speed your offensive ability defensive ability goes up and you get 50% reduce stun reduce freeze and reduce petrify and that's already maxed out because I've got other stuff on there that's doing it but don't worry too much about that so you can put that in your stash and then when your new character gets to level what level is it 15 they can wear that stuff so that's the first thing you can do so you go over to your yeah you got to find a slot I can buy a new one actually so just stick that in there so your new character can pick that stuff about shed stash now if you're revered with malmouth resistance right so you can buy a bunch of stuff from their shop at revered so that's friendly respected honored and revered any faction that's revered you can buy a mandate if you look at that reputation gain increased by 200% with mouth resistance you get four times the EXT the four times the rep Devil's Crossing is kind of really good because DC is quite a difficult one to level up so you can buy that I'm not going to bother getting that one I'll get DC One in a minute but if you look here potion of clarity it says untradeable it means you can't trade it to other players in multiplayer you can put it in your you can buy as many of them as you want I bought two they are 40,000 each and they give you an hour of Double XP so let's stick that in there right let's do what I was saying if I going that Devil's crossing any faction you can do this you can go and buy a mandate the rits are the ones that only work so that'll only work it's soulbound it'll only work on the character that buys it okay it's important don't think you can put that in Shar slash you can't and that only gives you 50% rep gain this thing gives you 200% rep gain and you can put it in shared stash and you can get that for all the factions that you're revered with and if you I would waste them like don't go buying every single one but when you create a new character if you have a look on your existing character at the stuff in the faction shop and think oh yeah I need um pet stuff or I need Vitality damage find the factions that do that and you think I want to get that stuff quicker or if you think you're going to need resistance stuff quicker from their augments for example this stuff Pierce resistance poison acid and vitality resistance yeah blueprints once you once you buy a blueprint and read it the Smith on that roster can craft that thing for any character so you don't have to keep repeat buying the blueprints worth noting so once you bought that so say if I buy this thing Devil's girdle right that gives you plus one to all skills in Soldier if you go have a look at this right Devil's girdle I can't craft it if I read that I can there it is and that's the same that will be there any other character comes in that will be there on this roster that the character create a new character and come in get the blacksmith you'll be able to craft that by default from the start the blacksmith stuff doesn't reset on each character it's retained okay so that's that more good stuff coming up nip down to conclave there's a few things here you can get I'll show you the stuff in Ultimate this guy over here is the same in Elite and ultimate normal it doesn't really make any difference it's him he it says keeper of iron if you look on the map it says keeper of iron he's not showing up as that he just shows up as like a normal NPC not like the spirit guide which shows up as a spirit guide not like the inventor shows up as an inventor lusion shows up he's just not right so click on him I wish to purchase so when you do that you don't get a screen come up you just get this text dialog when iron bar for 50,000 now let's just do that I mean I could buy a load let's just get the 50,000 so I bought it it's gone into my inventory there it is okay my money's gone down 998 298 so I can sell it back to him I wish to make an exchange exchange from about 50,000 so I got my money back and you can buy it again I wish to purchase when I bar 9982 you don't lose it's not it's just a swap it's like a little Bank transaction right but what you can do is you can put that in here your new character can come in and immediately go and do that and you go oh but no I've got to unlock no you haven't you haven't got to unlock forgotten Gods because here's the next trick merits merits are really really really useful this Trader down here okay so it's this Trader let walk away from the trader this guy okay it's not the Smith it's a asra Agra whatever cult supplier it's the only one in the game that sells this stuff Tab four 1 two 3 four merits this is an ultimate Merit it's called the savior's Merit you can buy that if you go into Elite right I'm now in Elite this guy is the same exactly the same thing or a purchase you can buy the stuff from you can buy a normal as well but the merits are different right so I've got an elite Merit and an ultimate Merit if you look at the elite one can be placed in the transfer slash to use on other characters unlocks Elite difficulty unlocks attribute skill rewards from quests on Lower difficulties unlocks riff G on L difficulties unlocks all inventory bags so what that means is put that in here a new character now if you've got Crucible you can just go and get it at level one if you haven't got Crucible you've got to beat the reanimator unlock or rescue the other guy unlock the prison get into the prison get to shed stash so you can get that Merit and then you consume it I can't consume it on this CU it says you've already unlocked this difficulty I can't consume that one either same thing you've already unlocked this difficulty so the elite one I'll show you in a minute I'll create a character and we use this saf is Merit that's the ultimate one unlocks ultimate difficulty also unlocks Elite difficulty it doesn't say it on there but it does unlocks attribute skill rewards and Quest and low difficulties what this means is quests like the one where you get the ether Crystal and you go to caspero and he gives you a skill point on a new character if you consume that ultimate Merit you'll get that skill point as if you'd completed the quest in normal and Elite it's so you don't if you don't want to you don't have to go into normal and Elite you could create a character unlock Ultimate and you could play in Ultimate from level one or five or wherever you were at don't have to do that it's not saying it's forcing you to do that what I like to do is the speed leling thing is use the Merit get the Rifts all unlocked on normal difficulty um go around and collect a bunch of law notes read them all with the XP pot on and level up I if you have a look at the I'll link the video the um cold and poison damage when I actually did it in that run Ang got the law notes leveled up and you can you can level up it means you can bypass the first 20 or 30 levels you can just get to level 30 odd um quite quickly get your character going and then run around in normal don't well do the Bare Basics of the campaign so you can complete normal so you can get to kill loran and get into ashes of malmouth area properly if you need to to do the campaign properly or you can just go and collect as many shrines in normal as you want and then play in Elite properly it's up to you and you you could think well well if I do that my faction rep won't be high enough well yeah that's why you got them um and you got that money to give yourself starts you can go and buy some gear if you need gear you got stuff in here there is there's a an arguably much better well a slightly better leveling set low car set but it means you've got to have a character that's able to kill locar and repeatedly Farm him I'm not going to say here's the low car set use that if you if you've got a character that that's that high level and you're confident enough and you're repeatedly killing lowart you don't need me to be telling you this stuff this is for people who have maybe got a character to revered with a few factions they've got into forgotten gods in Elite they can get that Merit they can get the iron bars they can maybe get a few mandates maybe get some leveling gear by that and your new character is is going to be pretty much good to go right there's other stuff that you can get the Le ainus ring I've got a load of these on this roster I've got a load of them on most rosters um yeah two of them are in use on one character that's the Leo vinus ring now they you can get one of those on any character in normal Elite and ultimate so on a character that's been through normal and Elite forgotten Gods you will have two of them so you can stick that in there as well now why that's decent is you got a 3% experience game plus 15% all damage 24% Elemental resistance that's really good when you're starting out if you got two of them on you got 48% Elemental resistance right from the start U well from Level 10 now that thing is if you go to the Temple of ooc Rift I'll shut up and I'll just run straight to where it is right so the leus ring is in that vase I don't think it'll be there now because I've already got it oh it's there okay so I haven't got the one in Elite so there you go I haven't picked the one up on Elite on this character probably because I had so many of them in stash I didn't care right so that's BR so actually where is that that's where the Temple of OC Rift is so you just hang a left or north or whatever you want to call it hug the eastern wall of that bit get into the hidden bit come over here break the vas get the lus ring and you can get two of them so you can get one in normal one in Elite one in Ultimate like I said if you've got character got to Elite you will be able to get two of those and then you can use it as leveling gear so I got two there you go like that now hopefully I haven't forgotten anything I mean there's obviously basic stuff you can do like you can if you've got old gear knocking around you you'll have it lying around in here I've got some old relics that okay you got to watch that one cuz you need a melee weapon what you can do as soon as you're friendly with any of these factions here you can get movement skill things and you can buy them like that and you can put them in shared stash like this now that's level one but it needs to go on a medal I don't think you'll get a medal lower than level 14 but if you're leveling up and you hit Level 14 and you're still running around in act one in normal you can get that and you can put it on your medal and you can have a movement skill straight away or almost straight away let's create a new character and I can show you how to do this right so what you can do if you've got Crucible I'm not going to do this in Crucible if you've got Crucible you can go into Crucible and you can get this stuff out of shed stash and take it with you into the main campaign going into Crucible doesn't like turn your character into a crucible character isn't locked to Crucible or anything like that that's the wrong thing johnp where's the flipping oh he's over here and there he is sorry right so go go to shed stash and you can pick all that stuff up increasable and take it in with you Tada or you can do it the other way I'll do this quickly go to the main campaign normal difficulty start right so as soon as you fumbled your way to killing the reanimator at level four you can go and open the prison so I didn't level up I didn't put any points in any masteries normal is reasonably easy now I've got access to this indeed right so I got to access all this stuff now I'll use the elite one not the ultimate one so you can see what you get if you use the elite one you can see on the map none of the Rifts are open anywhere I consume that I haven't got any inventory bags watch this now right you may now access Elite difficulty I've got all my inventory bags I've got a couple more attribute points and I've got 14 skill points so I've got um skill points from quests as well and I can go anywhere I want on the map I can go to full icon if I want and because I haven't progressed to qu the campaign the for Icon Rift is safe I can go down here uh this is probably the best place to go because you've got your Trader next to and you can start collecting law notes right so I can grab that I've got 1,000 iron bits I've now got 51,000 iron bits so that's a good start and I've got that if you look at DC tolerated yeah should have consumed that well I couldn't but there you go now I've got a Plus on there that says bonus reputation 200% so you like four times the rep every time you get rep for DC and what else yeah you can use that so yeah I can do whatever I want now so that's that's how you twink your alts I'm not going to get into the whole how you know leveling up on law notes and other stuff clever tricks you can do but you can you got all that gubbins in there that you can use from the start if I had a medal which I can't Equip to level 14 I could put that on it and then I've got a movement skill early in the game particularly good if you've got a class that doesn't have um a movement skill like soldier's got Blitz night blades got Shadow strike you if you're archinist or Inquisitor they don't have those wizzy movement skills so you can give yourself a wizzy movement skill right I've really missed some stuff out if there's stuff I missed out that you want to call out in comments call it out this was really just a basic sort of out to twink your alt guide for people who run around on a couple of characters maybe got them leveled up enough have to buy this stuff and they're wondering what to do and how to speed up the process of running a new character around if you like that let me know if you didn't like it if you didn't like it absolutely let me know and I'll catch you all in the next video
