[Brainstorming] Post your Taoist build and why here

Thank u for all the helo and reply,but my problem is, i will have just lvl5 blessing… ok i know its scales with int,but is a lvl 5 blessing not 15.when ppl invite me for stuff i think they will consider me dps.and probably have other sup using buffs

Having taken priest on my Inquisitor I can say that I barely use res unless something goes wrong in et, and the blessing doesn’t really factor Into my rotation because I have so many things going on.

Pardoner buffs usually last me long enough to finish what I was doing before I come back to fedi.

Now what I will say is that I picked priest specific for monstrance since my comp has physical DPS and I play with archers as well as swordies and a few monks. And having that buff on tap is really REALLY nice for damage. Helping out toons with Dex goes a long way for having consistent crit rate witch = moar damage.

Blessing making heal 2 hits is a factor yes but I (for better or worse ) haven’t utilized that aspect as much as I should so I find less value in it.

Now I just so happen to be making a taoist myself and I was contemplating the same thing, having taken priest on my inquisitor im yearning for something…more useful. Going for more PvE and ET groups. Not PVP

Going Cleric2>Krivis3>Miko>X>Tao

Kabba- Einsof and revenge,are nice but if im going to be a melstis bot kestia pots and unroasted blue gems seems like they would get me by. Also ein sof’s uptime is horrid. Barely keeping up with fencers, and other sp hogs.

Oracle - Counter spell, farming skills, prophecy, arcane energy. Really nice one circle kit but nothing really stands out apart from counter spell. arcane energy works against melstis and farming has moved towards fast dpk killing rather than 2-5 hour long resetting sessions. On the upside counter spell works wonders in fantasy library and other hard instances/WB.

PD- Blood letting, incinerate , healing factor pandemic. Rank 2 debuff cure and healing factor makes me a tank witch ensures survival to continue healing/ DPS. incinerate is off hand DPS witch can be fueled by torch and zalcai. Pandemic is weak without circle 2 and giving up other skills for damage that youll never use because your channeling is kinda a let down. also lvl 5 incinerate seems like it would fall off hard against high M def mobs, without black death steam.

Deivderbys- Statues. No one seems to put this here but I would think this would be really good. you get essentially 100% uptime with SP and CD statues, you just don’t get owls and ausirine, witch wasn’t your job anyway unless you went deiv3/krivis3. Seems really weak in anything outside of defense or long boss fights though.

Pardoner seems nice but magic defense scales off spr and gohei is pretty reliable for debuff removal, druid circle 1 seems pretty medium, I would rather take pd instead if I wanted more damage, cleric 3 is actually pretty interesting as you can guardian saint and melstis it up to make sure someone doesn’t bite the dust although its pretty impractical. Only other option is getting rid of miko for something else like druid 2. But I don’t think miko can be passed up so easily.

I think you should take a rank of priest and go full con if your focus is solmiki. Your right about priest only being good if things go wrong but when you start to go up 10-20 floors in this buggy game things will go wrong.

i go druid2 becoz transform is toooooo gooood

especially when other druid3 in party

x2 matk x2 atk x2 max hp

I was thinking about druid 2 but im unfamiliar with the whole transform thing. Sterra trouf is godlike tho.ill admit. @Planeptune

@Plasmagica that’s why I took priest on my inqui but I kinda want to round out this toon for pvm as well, where the res is completely useless. So im outing priest for this build.
