Im thinking of doing a cleric2 priest 2 monk3 pd build…
I just dont like inquisitor lol; hopefully the monk buffs are nice and maybe rank9 will have something that specfically benefits monk…
i mean… inquisitor is supposed to benefit monks… but ending up becoming a burst damage class for INT cleric lol.
I play c2 diev 2 monk3 inquisitor.
Full dex.
Inquisitor is a physical class not INT…
All skill except for one scale with patk.
And the one that does not, is just a debuff thing that is amazing
Edit: also PD scales with INT… If you want pd for Healing factor and whatnot, you can do ç2 priest2 monk2 pd- ??
Maybe with the change in Hand Knife and Palm Strike Monk inqui wll be the best way to Monk c3 cause the damage in base enemy DEF and Int
Breaking Wheel destroys entire worlds. Only the Malleus skill uses INT but still hits like a truck without it. Other skills are STR.
I had a monk c3 and was about to go inq with it, but I saw the hidden synergy paladin had with inq instead of monk, and I just deleted him to go for pally.
Inquisitor is a really powerful physical class, it’s not because they have a spell using matk that they are magic users. It’s even better like this, meaning you can just invest 1 point in it for the effects and focus on the others.
Monk is still good, though, one inch punch and double punch instead of basic attacks really makes a difference, they also have a nice amount of base damage, helping a lot with full dex builds.
Imo, the best monk c3 path is c2>p2>monk3>inq, because since you’re a physical class you got no int, and you heal poorly.
With p2, you get mass heal, which will help you to sustain a bit more, and in the worst cases you are able to resurrect/revive.
The con is that all of your buffs are almost ineffective, making them close to useless compared to buff-sellers, except for aspersio because a few players buy it, so it’s still something.
Diev2 instead of p2 is also a nice path, because of the diverse support it provides ; cooldown reductions, an okay pierce attack, owls that deal huge AoE damage with breaking wheel, carve world tree, and free warps.
I play, I’m always 3rd or 4tr on saalus, but I think is not worth it.
Unless you accept be in the less DPS of the group, your job will be more support than make damage. If you dont like be support, is not worth it.
Of course, to play solo is good, because you will never die easily in comparicion with any other class, but will not do damage as them as well, as Monk.
Kamehameha = 1 Min each and if you had upgrade the atributes of Double Punch, except that Kamehameha do it on a large area, still will be almost the same damage if you continued to do double punch without stop.
As for Double Punch, if you have delay, you will not reach its potential, so will be very weak in comparicion with other classes.
AS I said, you do more support than damage.
[C > Priest 3> Monk 2]
Not taking C2 is a horrible decision IMO as it simply has too many useful benefits to yourself and others. Priest 3 is just plain boring with tons of useless points and buffs that are better off in someone elses hands than a Monk or gotten from Pardoner. Relying on Mass Heal in a world of spaztic panicers who will always run away from you isn’t going to help as much as Lv.10 Heal.
Some go P1 or 2 just for reviving and the Dex buff for a little extra support but it doesn’t really do yourself a whole lot of good. I say how about they simply just not die or use a revive orb. Most people seem to orb revive themselves anyways before I could even ress them. I dropped Priest 3 for Diev and C2 because it just wasn’t worthwhile and there’s usually tons of INT Clerics all over the place with Priest2-3 anyways that made my skills even more useless when I ended up paired with them. Funny thing is I see Priest 3 Mikos and etc who still buy Pardoner buffs instead of spamming it.
Monk has its own combo/synergy, while it’s not best paired to Inquisitor it still works and Monk has its own advantage to be able to solo quest (I also solo Siaulai and 290 rush if that matters). The only problem for rank 8 monster is survival and simply fixed with stuffs like Safety Zone, Alchemist potions, Barrier Scroll, Revive if you take Priest, etc
And honestly, people kinda underestimate Golden Bell Shield and/or Iron Skin. You can make “Peltasta without Swash” with them after kToS buff. Iron Skin is basically a better C guard (but limited with time and cool down) and GBS is 2nd safety zone…
You can, however, ignore Monk C3 and stay C2 while pick something in rank 7 then Inquisitor. C2 is enough to supply damage…
The only bad thing with Monk is forget a PvP build with this. It’s clearly PvE build with how IMC balance them until this date…
There’s actually been quite a few situations where my Bell Shield saved my perky tight butt. It’s like a manual dodge for those times a boss is revving up a hit you can’t avoid and at low HP. It’ll be a lot more useful when they buff it to have lower CD, which is really it’s only major downside. You don’t really sacrifice much either when you max it. I left it at Lv.1 for now though, hope they give us a reset after all the Monk buff. :s
I had a Priest 2, Monk 3 but I reset it to Diev 2 Monk 3 for a DPS focus. I m Inquisitor now and can’t complain. Inquisitor physical damage it s excellent and Monk skill helps while cooldown, add some statues ( dps, silence, - 20 cool down) of Diev and your damage surpass any other class.
I hope that rank 9 will bring a class that is specifically synergise or good with monk; cos right now monk builds most of the damage comes from inquisitor right? and inquisitor is just picked by anybody who wants high dmg at rank 8 (ie. diev3 oracal kabba inqui) …
monk might be good with skill rebalance, right now, there arent enough plate bosses to get #1
if monk have more multihit skill, they woudl be rank8 dps
get enough trancend gear and you only take 1 dmg. monk dps still great for solo play
i have cleric2 bokor2 that going monk3 inquis
@Planeptune I think you is the only one I ever saw with Bokor.
I already saw Monks: Paladin, Diev, Sadhu,
but not Bokor. I hope you like your gameplay as well.
i’m waiting for new golden bell change
so i could use mackangdal with golden bell
bokor2 give me some movespeed
but it would not useful as diev2 or priest2
ps. i don’t like diev2 and priest2 that feel halfway build
i just build them to diev3 and priest3
that why i use bokor2 as monk
Guys, does this rebalancing spell any good news for those who only dip 1 circle in Monk? Say a pal3>monk1>inquisitor?
owls actually do not spread with the wheel… sadly… but they do ok damage with venezaris mace since it gives MATK as well as ~100 int. so there is that
Oh really? I didn’t had the occasion to check it by myself since mine didn’t reach R8, but I saw lots of people across the forum vaunting the merit of the owls + breaking wheel. Kind of a disappointment if it doesn’t.
