I am playing as a duo with my spouse and we just reached the endgame. I am playing a Fireball Stormweaver and my spouse is playing Explosive Granade Witchhunter.

We have been blasting anything in our way until now. My build don't have any defensive layers other than life and a few resistances so as soon as it makes maps too difficult I will start going the "blockbot" way.

How is it going for all of you?

Currently playing as an explosive grenade ranger deadeye.

I had many thoughts on my build as I was starting, and each of those has been shut down because I can't read.

First I wanted to grab the giants blood keystone on the passive tree so that I could use a crossbow and shield simultaneously, then after spending much too long getting to the node I actually read it and it's only for warrior 2 handers. So that idea was scrapped.

Second I wanted to use my weapon specific skill points to build a bossing build. There's a keystone that changes all evasion into armor.. Which would be great for bossing.. But you cannot use the weapon specific points to slot into keystones. Also using crossbows across two weapon slots is extremely annoying. Since you use the basic fire of the crossbow after loading bolts, you need to have both basic attacks on your active skill palette or you'll constantly be swapping back from the second build.

Currently I'm running through act 5 on my own, and carrying friends through act 2.

I believe I've spent at least 60k on passive refunds so far.
