The only saving grace here is that there are no penalties, making it very new player friendly, and fairly straightforward. Both Unbroken and Tactician are better suited for this type of Build thanks to their passives, but unfortunately we donвЂ™t have that option. When choosing Swashbuckler EdГ©r comes with No Subclass Fighter, which is less than ideal. Turn-Based players should also use the Escape ability every round to boost their Deflection by +50, and prevent themselves from being Flanked, greatly increasing the likelihood they will Riposte. You will be able to attack enemies instantly that Miss you with Melee attacks via the Riposte ability, and all of your damage will be boosted against enemies you have Engaged by 30% thanks to Sneak Attack. The way this Build works is that EdГ©r uses the FighterвЂ™s Defender Stance to hold enemies in place, and uses the Rogue passive Persistent Distraction to Distract them all, reducing their Deflection and Accuracy. Low Dexterity means he is more suite to Turn-Based, but he can still tank effectively in either game mode. And last, there are some great Defending synergies between Rogue and Fighter, which I will explain. Third, both of his Classes are вЂњNo SubclassвЂќ versions, meaning they donвЂ™t excel at Striking (or Defending). Second, heвЂ™s a Human, and Fighting Spirit works best on characters that tend to get hit often. First, his Attribute point spread is more ideal for a Defender than that of a Striker, though this is more true in the Real-Time With Pause version of the game than the Turn-Based version. Whenever I use EdГ©r I always drop him into the Defender role, and there are a few reasons for that. This can be a very tough decision for new players because itвЂ™s one that is permanent, and cannot be reversed later. After the brief ship battle you can recruit him on the beach and you will immediately need to choose between a Single Class Fighter, Single Class Rogue, or a Multiclass Swashbuckler (a mix of the two). Pillars Of Eternity 2 Deadfire Companion Build Guide: EdГ©rД®dГ©r will be found immediately after Character Creation if he survived your game save from PoE 1, or if you chose from one of the generated world states. Please note that this Build Guide was updated for the 5.0 version of the game, as well as 1.02 on console (as of January 25th, 2020), and works with both Real Time with Pause and Turn-Based. If you plan to use EdГ©r in your party then read on for some insight into this jovial Companion. IвЂ™ll be explaining my Swashbuckler Build for both the regular real-time with pause and turn-based modes, so that anyone can use him effectively. In this Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire Build Guide weвЂ™re going to be taking a look at the first companion you usually acquire: EdГ©r.
