How to Build a Vanguard Tank Fighter • Lands of Evershade Character Guide

Mon, 26 Oct 2026 14:21:27 +0000

In my previous Lands of Evershade character guides, I’ve mostly focused on dealing damage with characters like the Hunter, Mage and Paladin. This time, I wanted to try something different – a Fighter built almost entirely around surviving, absorbing damage and keeping the rest of the party alive.

The Vanguard path is particularly well suited for this role, with several abilities that reward staying on the front line, surrounded by enemies. And while this build isn’t going to deal much damage on its own, it can become an incredibly durable character with plenty of ways to protect allies.

If you enjoy playing a proper tank and keeping the rest of your party alive, I’d definitely recommend giving this build a try!

How to Build a Runecarver Mage • Lands of Evershade Character Guide

Mon, 21 Sep 2026 14:00:00 +0000

In this Lands of Evershade character guide, I’m putting together an Agility-based Runecarver Mage, built as a proper glass cannon – lots of damage, but not much room for getting hit! I explore the synergies between race, origin, profession, advancement path, equipment, and companions, then take the character through each advancement level by level, discussing which action cards I’d pick, why they work for this particular build, and how the Mage develops over the course of the campaign. As always, this isn’t meant to be the definitive way to build the character, but hopefully it gives you some ideas for your own Mage!

In this Lands of Evershade character guide, I’m building a spellcasting Moonshield Paladin following the Skygazer path. I go through the race, origin, profession, path, equipment, and companions that bring the build together, then take the character through each advancement level by level, discussing which action cards I’d pick, why they work for this particular build, and how the Paladin develops over the course of the campaign. If you’re looking for ideas for your own Paladin or just want to see how a more magic-focused approach can work, I hope you find it useful!

How to Build an Archer Hunter • Lands of Evershade Character Guide

Wed, 29 Jul 2026 09:52:24 +0000

I’m starting a character guide series for Lands of Evershade, similar to what I’ve been doing for TES classes, covering synergies between race, origin, profession, advancement paths, and plenty more nerdiness!

In this first video, I build an Archer Hunter in Lands of Evershade, exploring the synergy between your race, origin, profession, path, equipment, and companions. We then go through each advancement level by level, discussing which action cards to pick, why they fit the build, and how the character evolves over the course of the campaign. The video contains only very minor spoilers in the items section (common items only), and that part is timestamped in case you’d prefer to skip it.
