How to DEVASTATE Late Game - Advanced Brute Builds

what's going on everybody this is Clydian Fayre  let's talk about Wartales Advanced brute build   Edition so I've already gone over my swordsman  build video and quite frankly let's just go ahead   and hop on into the brute build video first  build that I'm going to be going over is one   that I've already kind of elaborated on in one  of my previous videos where I went over my own   personal class builds but with this one it gets  a little bit more in depth because now we have   access to level 12. so welcome to Swift Justice  Swift Justice is going to be starting out with   Vanguard followed by Vanguard we're going to be  grabbing valorous chain as well as cruelty after   that we'll be grabbing guard breaker because  guard breaker will eventually let us ignore 100   of the enemy's guard and we'll really be able  to punch through any armor that the enemy has   on top of that we're grabbing defensive riposte  because it's the best in slot in my opinion and   then we will be grabbing class specialization  and with class specialization we'll be grabbing   overwhelming presence overwhelming presence I have  set for the level 12 slot but you could grab it   at level 8 if you managed to beat the Drombach  arena earlier on in the game because honestly   it's a really really really good specialization  pick because it essentially gives you permanent   crits and it also applies confused to the enemies  so they can't buff themselves so long as you have   you know more armor than the enemy so moving on  from the actual specializations let's go ahead   and get into the items for this build since we're  going Vanguard and valor's chain we're going to   be grabbing Dagan's Hammer Dagan's hammer in  my opinion is probably my favorite two-handed   hammer in the game it is very strong even post  Nerfs and it's just a very viable weapon Dagan's   Hammer can be found in Tiltren's Tomb of the  Ancients which is essentially a little bit to   the Southwest I believe it's west southwest uh  and in the snowy mountains it's one of the first   Tomb of the Ancients that you'll be most likely  discovering and going through on Dagan's Hammer   for this build we're going to be running Misty  oil as well as infectious oil the reason why   we're doing this is because because Misty oil if  you're going to be dealing a lot of damage with   Dagan's hammer you're going to be hitting multiple  people at once Misty oil will help you deal even   more damage to everyone that you're hitting and  infectious oil can be triggered by Misty oil so   Misty oil will apply 50 Splash damage essentially  to anyone who's next to the enemies that you're   hitting which means this can bounce back and forth  between enemies that are already in Dagan's arc   so you can apply Misty oil to each individual  and it will bounce to every other individual in   the ark or anyone else that's outside of the Arc  actually within range and you're going to deal a   decent amount of damage from that on top of that  infectious oil basically triggers extra damage   on top of the already extra damage from Misty oil  and Misty oil can trigger infectious oil if that   makes sense so there's a lot of potential damage  chaining here from this build and in order for us   to really capitalize on that we're going to be  grabbing the Misty oil concentrate Misty oils   recipe can be found in the Ludern Garusa Clans  Alchemist and infectious oil can be found in The   Grinmeer Alchemist and then for armor we're going  to go ahead and run the Akhedian steel brigandine   the best in slots going to be the reinforced layer  of the serpent of course reinforced layer of the   serpent is not out there for anyone who hasn't  already completed path quests and unlock the   recipe so the best in slot for this is most likely  going to be a mix of reinforced layer of the Rat   as well as reinforced layer of the Stag reinforced  layer of the Rat can be found after completing   the Vertruse tracker hunt whereas the reinforced  layer of the Stag can be found after completing   the Tiltren tracker hunt and overall for Swift  Justice once we hit Level 12 we really don't need   to be putting any extra points into critical hit  because overwhelming presence will automatically   give us those crits so we're actually going to  be dumping extra points into strength as well   as movement and once we get willpower up to 15.  so movement needs to be our next one followed by   strength because that's going to increase our  critical damage output as well I I always put   in a few extra points into critical hit just to  help us get to where overwhelming present starts   actually triggering but once you're there you're  just permanently critting and it's really nice   as for professions we are going to be grabbing  wood cutter and trying to Max that out because   that's really going to give us the best in slot  capabilities here for actual damage output moving   on to our second build which is called strong boi  and strong boi is called this because we're going   to be using a lot of strength boosting items and  effect so first things first we're going to be   running Destroyer I understand Destroyer doesn't  actually min max you for strength but Destroyer is   one of those classes that just it's nice it feels  nice and I like it so we're gonna run it following   up with Destroyer we're going to be grabbing  valorous duel as well as cruelty after cruelty   we're going to be running guard breaker and after  guard breaker we're going to be running defensive   riposte because once again it's best in slot after  that we'll be grabbing our class specialization   and once again grabbing overwhelming presents  because overwhelming presence is an amazing   passive getting into our actual items we're going  to be using Erkeshet's mace now Erkeshat's mace   is really strong because it basically gives you a  double damage attack that's a guaranteed crit if   you have more strength than the enemy unit you're  attacking this is really useful for novice and   experienced players it's not as strong for expert  players because well enemy stat boosts really   make it to where it's hard for you to out strength  somebody so to combat that we could use a strength   oil but I'm not going to in this particular  instance we're going to be using exhausting   oil and the Braves oil so exhausting oil can  be found in the Drombach Hulberg Alchemist the   Braves oil can be found in the Grinmeer Alchemist  and essentially what we're trying to do here is   we're trying to apply dazed so enemy attack of  opportunities don't work on top of that we're   trying to get it to where we're generating more  Valor points and being a VP positive build here   while still being able to essentially function  as a tank our armor is going to be a Akhedian   steel plate armor with reinforced layer of the  horse this is going to give us extra strength as   well as extra guard and make us a little bit  beefier after that we're grabbing the peace   bearers roundel which is going to give us that  extra damage output on every attack because our   guard is so much higher after that we're going to  be using the Braves oil concentrate which is going   to help us trigger the Braves oil every single  ability so no matter what we're always going   to be able to essentially generate any potential  Valor point that we use as well as generate more   because we have a valor's dual for engaging  now in order for us to really take advantage   of Erkeshet's Mace we need to make sure that we  are dumping as many points into strength as we   possibly can so our overall movement score is only  going to be at 14. I'm not going to pump it up   past that I am going to get our willpower up to at  least 15 though just because that's really going   to help us out later on if we ever get to the  point where you know we're at zero Health after   that we're going to be making sure that this unit  is using blacksmith because blacksmith gives pure   strength and it essentially gives you an extra 10  points in strength at max level and we are going   to be just dumping every other stat attribute  Point career planned into strength to really help   out for additional skills I'm going to be making  sure that I have basically anything because with   Braves oil I'll be able to just regenerate it all  back at the end of the day anyway Ron is going to   help us out with our maneuvering considering we're  going to not have as much movement as our other   build as well as having taunt which will give us  a damage reduction debuff for enemy units whenever   we engage them we're going to be grabbing wrath  because that's going to deal a little bit more   damage and yeah we're we're going to the whole  nine yards here because essentially everything's   going to be free so we might as well just max out  as many of these abilities as we can on strongboi   moving on from strongboi we're going to be getting  into brawl and this requires the brawler subclass   which once again you will unlock once you go to  drawback Arena the brawler subclass lets you use   thunderous blow which in and of itself isn't the  best attack out there except if you use the name   Ambush which applies vulnerability which basically  guarantees your neck tax going to be a critical   hit and the Ally gets a free attack of opportunity  so it really does apply a little bit extra damage   going there and it works as a very nice dedicated  tank of course we're gonna be grabbing valorous   duel as well as armor breaker on this one armor  breaker is a little bit different because we're   not gonna be using cruelty but I do enjoy it as  well it could be swapped out for cruelty for all   intents and purposes of this but I went with  armor breaker for this example next up we're   going to be grabbing rivalry this tank is meant  to basically tank so we're going to make sure   that we are able to reduce all incoming damage  as much as we possibly can after rivalry we'll   be grabbing defensive riposte and then for class  specialization once again the best option in slot   is going to be overwhelming presence and once  you're done with the specializations let's go   ahead and get into the items for this we're going  to be using Hot Heads mace now Hot Heads mace is   just a standard rare item that you'll be able  to find from wandering Traders as well as tier   3 tank units from the legion faction So Hot Heads  maze what exactly does it do well basically if   you've already attacked once in that turn you're  going to deal 50 of the damage that hotheads mace   attack deals directly to their health pool so  it's an additional damage of 50 directly through   armor and guard it's really strong so we're  gonna go ahead and combine that with putrid   oil and exhausting oil once again you can find the  recipe for exhausting oil at the Drombach Hulberg   Alchemist you can find the putrid oil recipe at  the Drombach New Asthel Alchemist so the overall   thought process on this is for us to engage using  our special attack using thunderous blow and then   we're going to be applying vulnerability and then  you use Hot Heads mace and since it's not your   first attack for the turn you're going to have a  crit as well as deal an extra 50 damage from the   crit damage through everyone one's guard and armor  directly to their health points and on top of that   you're already going to be using putrid oil so  they're going to be taking fever because we're   using the putrid oil concentrate so your first  attack's going to apply fever so it's going to   increase your damage output by 10 percent and yeah  yeah like things start like it it ping pongs back   and forth and it really adds up moving on from  the weapon we're going to be grabbing Akhedian   steel plate armor and we are going to be maxing  this with reinforced layer of the horse which   is going to give us extra strength and extra guard  after the armor we're going to be grabbing Rampart   Rampart is a special Shield that you can get once  you beat the Arthes arena essentially what Rampart   is going to do is it's going to give you tactical  slam which doesn't deal that much damage however   the damage of rampart's ability is increased  by 15 percent for every buff and debuff both   you and your opponent have so if you have a lot  of Buffs and debuffs as does the opponent you're   going to hit really hard with this shield and of  course we're going to be grabbing the pictured   oil concentrate because this is going to guarantee  that we are applying fever stacks and increasing   our damage output even further for every attack  that we deal so we'll at least have two stacks   of fever on the enemy whenever we use our Shield  slam which is going to be our last attack in the   entire sequence so we're able to really maximize  the amount of Buffs and debuffs between us and the   enemy as for stat spreads I'm actually going to  be grabbing Bard on this one because that's going   to get our willpower up to a high enough point  where I don't need to put any levels into it and   it gives us extra Constitution this unit is meant  to be a tank so we're going to be utilizing it as   a tank as for overall critical hit we're not going  to be putting very many points into it because we   have overwhelming presence then we're going to be  making sure that we have at least 16 movement and   then we're dumping the rest of the points into  strength because we need to deal more damage so   let's go ahead and do that and that's essentially  going to be your overall stat spread for brawl and   finally we're getting into honestly this is  more of a thematic build but I really enjoy   using it and I call it sludge so sludge ends up  using the Smasher class so Smasher for those of   you who aren't aware utilizes poisoned impact so  essentially anytime you use poison impact which   is an AOE ability on units that are already  bleeding you apply poison and leave poisoned   clouds on the ground upon upgrade which is pretty  strong considering the weapon we'll be using but   let's get into that a little bit later after  Smasher of course we're going to be grabbing   valor's chain so we're able to really utilize all  this AOE damage we're gonna be grabbing cruelty   and then afterwards we're gonna be grabbing guard  breaker followed by defensive riposte and once   again for our level 12 ability we're going to be  using overwhelming presence and that's because   overwhelming presence to me is more important than  deafening roar I really don't like The Bravery   skill for the brute tree and I feel like it's just  not that good of an ability sure it's useful but   being able to really make your brute Stronger by  giving them an extra level 8 passive or an extra   passive in general it's not really much of a  question in my opinion now moving on from our   specializations let's go ahead and get on into  our gear so starting off we're going to be using   the two-handed Hammer of the Guard this is one of  those weapons that you will most likely encounter   by the end of your run anyway it's a rare ish item  it's a blue item and it's a two-handed hammer so   basically you're going to be spinning around  and anytime you deal Armor damage with it you   apply bleed and this is where you're going to be  getting your source of bleed in order for you to   utilize your poisoned impact then we're going  to be applying poisonous oil to this weapon so   we're able to apply stacks of poison in general  with this now remember poisonous oil currently   is not in the game as a recipe however you can  find a single unit of poisonous oil if you go to   Arthes and rescue the Joan of Arc scenario where  a woman is getting burned at the stake he will   reward you with a single poisonous oil once we  have poisonous oil on this we're also going to   be utilizing paralyzing oil and paralyzing oil  essentially applies slow down so you're really   going to be able to kite people for basically ever  paralyzing oil you'll be able to get at the Ludern   Nurprun Clan Alchemist moving on from our weapon  we'll be using the Akhedian steel brigandine best   in slot layers for this is going to be reinforced  layers of the serpent but once again since they   are not white in the game unless you have an early  access save from before the path rework system   you're going to want to use reinforced layer of  the Rat which you can get after you complete the   Vertruce hunt and then for our belt item we're  going to be using a poison vial poison bile you   can find in random chests throughout the game it's  kind of a random spawn so good luck finding it   but if you find it it's going to be pretty useful  because after using a skill you have a 30 chance   of applying poison to all the targets ever hit so  this pairs really well with your AOE attack as for   overall extra skills I'm going to be making sure  that I'm using wrath run wouldn't be terrible but   overall we don't need too many VP burning skills  it's always useful to have first aid just in case   you need to pick somebody else up as for overall  stat spreads on sludge we are going to be using   minor as a profession which gives plus 7 con plus  five strength pretty useful overall it gives you a   little bit extra bulk or when you're in those big  and tight Heights and then on top of that we're   going to be basically pumping a lot of points into  movement and strength once again Movement we went   ahead and got that up to 18 and then for willpower  I always get that up to 15. I'm not going to put   any extra points into critical hit because  overwhelming presence once again guarantees   crits once you have so much armor damage dealt  and then we're going to be maxing out strength   at this point so that really is how you're able  to maximize on this effect anyway guys that is   all I've got for this video a special shout out  to Dorim for his guide and helping me find all of   these items once again and his guide is going to  be linked Below in the description and that's all   I've got for this video If you like this content  want to see more videos such as this like the   video let me know what your favorite brute build  is in the comments below and I hope to catch you   all in you know the comment section or in my live  stream chats and until next time have a good one
