Lots of magic skill investment ... nothing in scoundrel/huntsman ... Warfare, I assume for the superb mobility it offers ... how are you reducing physical armor? Am I underestimating retaliation that much?


The answer is you make the hybrid characters go last. Red and Iffan are paired with 2 Rogues, so if they need to attack something through physical armour they wait for the rogues to go first and strip the armour off targets before following up with abilities like Stomp, Charge, and their physical attacks.

If Red wants to combo attack spells you make him go after Iffan, as with Aero 3 and explosive wand combo he shreds magic armour pretty quickly.

Red in this picture is also built as a tank rather than DPS, if I wanted to adjust his build for more raw attack DPS he'd be equipped with a two handed weapon and the 3 points in Retribution would be moved to Two Handed weapons.
