[Build] Full support cleric question

[ohlettefay]

Hi guys

Thank you for taking the time to consider my query.

Is cleric2, priest3, diev1 and PD a viable full support (spr con) build?

I understand that people usually go kirvis instead of Diev for daino.

However, Diev provides CD reductions that give 100% uptime on revive and (I believe) stone skin. Save for statue of auserine, I read somewhere that the other statues don’t add to the buff count.

If you have other full supp Diev build, please feel free to share

Would appreciate your wisdom on this. Many thanks!

I’m no expert but I have played a Cleric up till Chaplain, so I’ll give you what I know.

This is a viable build albeit not a build that specializes in anything but is more of a jack of all trades. Your idea is sound, this would work for supporting and debuffing. However, (and this is just my opinion) I feel like you’re missing out when you split your ranks. This makes me want to ask questions like: “You’re already going Priest C3, why not go chaplain?” Or “Oh you’re planning to go Diev, why not just go C3 for the Owl, Silence and Invulnerability?”

Anyway, your build looks fine. Go for it. Just remember that your transition from Priest C3 to Diev C1 to Plague Doctor C1 is going to a big leap since you have no additional attacking abilities that will be added during that time.

I went with the standard Kivris route, but have considered the diev for long time.

Realistically you are taking diev for one skill - Laima statue. But the skill itself is good, and while on long cooldown, provides 2 debuffs for Incineration.

In terms of ‘viability’ as support - you have a solid core so no matter what class you get on c6 you will be viable. I believe that diev at c6 is a solid pick, but admittedly it is not common.

Thank you for all your insightful comments.

In the alternative, we may consider in lieu of PD builds:

1. Cleric2, Priest3, Diev2. CD reductions, max block and silence.

or

2. Cleric2, Priest3, Diev1, Kirvis1. Trading off silence for daino and crit atk

Full Support Build

Divine Might Aspersion Blessing Sac Revive Stone Skin Monstrance Safety Zone? That's at least 8 or 7 buff count just on your first 5 Ranks (Cleric2Priest3). You will probably get more with next 2 Ranks and other Classes will certainly have their own buffs. That means your party needs Daino at all times (24/7). Unless you can provide that much Daino scrolls to keep it up I strongly suggest you go Krivis. Zalciai is also a great buff/debuff in a Spr build.
