Raspberry Pi Grim Dawn

Skilled Pet Cabalist

This is a pet type build that focuses on the skills of your summoned creatures.

Your main pets here are Summon Familiar and Summon Hellhound, which have different arsenals for both offensive and support skills.

You also have an army of Raise Skeletons that will greatly benefit from the support aura of both your Familiar and Hellhound.

Equipment Priorities

Your priority here are items that provide bonuses to your pets.

It’s also a great opportunity if you can find equipment that can increase the summon limit of your pets, like the Will of Bysmiel amulet or Shepherd of Lost Souls set.

Since you don’t have enough active skills, equip any gear or component that can grant that.

How to Play

Set Summon Familiar and Summon Hellhound’s behavior to aggressive and let them fight the enemies for you, together with your Raise Skeletons.

Use Curse of Frailty and any active skills attached to your devotion skills to trigger their proc.
