Where on earth do you nutjobs come from?
Spr:
- Is more defense due to stone skin’s defensive scaling. (x4 for PvE, x0.5 for PVP.)
- Blessing can add up to 500 dmg a hit roughly, but it’s still insignificant vs rank 8’s 250k health mobs.
- Zalciai got nerfed in ktos so it can’t put enemy resists into negative values anymore.
- No new spr scaling skills in r8 that we know off yet.
- Should scale aspersion and thus aspergillum.
vs
Int:
- Increases the damage of all magic skills. (includes aspergillum)
- Gets a +10% stat bonus per class rank. (rank 8 = +70% int)
- Magnus/Exorcise got far more usable in ktos, so those now add to such a build as well.
- Rank 7-8 can be used to get pd2 for really good dmg. (Miko may open up new builds as well.)
- Improves healing via heal.
tl/dr:
- Spr is best for a defensive PvE build but has no ideal r8 class.
- Spr’s skill scaling is worthless in PvP. Only debuff resist is of some worth.
- Spr/Int should be considered as well, considering warriors can reach block cap with 250 spr stone skin if I remember correctly.
- Int is a bit low on defenses for PvE, but very strong offensively.
