Great. I took 5 res and it’s great that I can cast it so quickly.

I was thinking… what about a 1:1:1 CON:INT:SPR build? Good Heal, HP and a average stone skin and damage
That’s what your stats will look like (i didn’t put in any bonus points from quests, too lazy to find out how many those are) so you can decide if you like that or not.
I’m lv 249 here currently stats: int 206, con 131, spr 110
pretty satisfied with this build, 19k hp, 4k mana (never had to use any potion and stone skin works fine)
even tho I’m druid, I didnt want to make a full int build, I think this works better overall, if I wanted full dps I wouldnt be chaplain-druid
I also think full spr/con is very good if you already have money to level atributes to 70 thats the way you get the most damage, 200 points in int or less doesnt seem to make such difference btw
Thank you guys for reply.
I was thinking in a build like
100 CON
120 SPR
200++ INT
My skills would be like this:
What you guys think?
I suggest some changes:
-cure 5, deprotected zone1, SZ 4
-at least 1 lv of telepath
-also might want to take a look at blessings recent buff so having blessing15 will make a good difference later
Great work here.
i’m on my way same build however just wanted to know between stats diff.
What if i dont do SPR but purely INT + 50Con?
will that affect the damage or viable of this build in late game.
It’s fine, though you can bump up the con some more if you’re feeling 50 isn’t enough.

Personally I would aim for 80-100 con, staying alive is important. You can also hold onto a little dps a little longer with Cafrisun (always carry it with you too). If you don’t do Spr you will probably need some SP pots. Your Stone Skin will be a little lackluster comparatively but if you have 5 points in it, it still adds 400(?) block, it will be nerfed in pvp eventually so it will be basically as effective as someone with spr in pvp. All that Int will make your cures and Aspergillium and heals better.
Going full Int would encourage you to take another class that has dps that scales with Int. Krivis would be more support and a little dps, Druid would be dps with a little utility, and PD would be more heals/dps/support. So it all depends on what you like to play.

Sorry for such a late reply.
Here is what I would suggest:
Drop Monsterance, if you REALLY want to buff with it use Capella (this is NOT a popular opinion).
Take some points out of Aspersion, keep it at 10 or lower (especially with the "soon"™ Blessing revamp).
Take 1 out of Tansform and put it in Telepath (pvp purposes)
Take out Deprotect Zone and put it in Cure. (Cure can dish out more damage than you realize) 1 point in it is customary, I personally don’t like it for Chaplain unless you go PD (same for Monsterance).
I personally feel you have too much Spr… Cap I would cap it at 60-70. More Spr will do you good with the “soon” Blessing revamp, but you hinder your Druids Carnivory. I don’t think the trade off is worth it. I would also say it’s way too much for Stone Skin, if you want beefy SS and Blessing a full support con/Spr build is what you might look at (this will hurt your heals though).
100 con is good! This will let you use Cafrisun longer and in more situations. The damage bonus from it gets smaller as you level (ignoring the blessing revamp) but every little bit will help as Chaplains Autos die off pretty hard at higher levels (but are still very good, and fun)
P.S.
There is a post floating around here discussing the Blessing changes. If you go full Spr it’s a monster, if you go full Int it’s a slightly smaller monster. If you split it up its in between. But remember more Spr will hurt your Int based skills (Cure, Heal, Mass, Carnivory, Asper) and help your Stone Skin (you will also probably never need pots)
EDITED. Dropping a SPR Chaplain build/idea here for feedback. Some of the reasoning’s explanation is on the build itself.
Click me for build + wall of text :arrow_backward:
I **HOPEFULLY** want this to be viable for ET, future endgame PvM, and group PvP/GvG - I understand that I wouldn't be dealing dmg in any of those, that isn't what this build is for - so please tell me if you think it'd work.
The CON's kinda there as a random number, not sure if I need more or less than that for GvG.
Pardoner’s also meant as an experiment somewhat. Not only do I get Simony for Krivis Scrolls, but with a SPR build Enhance MDEF quickly becomes op, and lv5 Discerning Evil allows for things like perma-Incineration with a PD partner.
DEPLOY CAPELLA IS AMAZING AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHY IT ISN’T MORE POPULAR. I mean, party-wide Stoneskin with 100% uptime, provided you’ve properly explained how Capella works? That’s essentially physical damage immunity. For magical attacks, Enhance MDEF’d cover that, alongside with (in PvM) Barrier scrolls’s SPR scaling.
SPR Zalciai is the best next thing, being essentially the best buff I could provide for physical party members. I benefit from it myself if I have the opportunity to DPS, too, as the physical part of the autoattack can crit (and, if I’m not wrong, Toy Hammer’s explosion too). More importantly, SPR lv15 Blessing’ll be amazing if the kToS patch ever comes - even if it doesn’t, I can buy Sacrament/aspersio from Pardoners - and applies to every dmg number I get.
Monstrance is mostly for Simony. I’m not above using it if the party’d benefit from the DEX buff though, and being SPR-based the def debuff actually makes a difference, stacking well with Deprotected Zone (meant only for boss use). Either way, I do have Daino on my build, so the buff limit isn’t a problem.
I can drop a point on Aspersio if I absolutely need it at lv1. However, I've heard that:
- the attribute is obtainable even with Aspersio lv0,
- that it will apply normally that way,
- and that with it lv0 Aspersio would count as same thingamajingy as lv1~5, hence no need to get it at all.
No, I don’t know what thingamajingy means, I can link you to references and sources later if you want though. Either way, #3 needs to be tested as I haven’t received confirmation on it, but I’m fairly sure of #1 and #2.
Also, is there any reason at all for Exorcism and Magnus Exorcismus at lv1? Not like I’m ever going to use either of them, and no interesting attributes are available either.
@MagicTart @krocsyl (If you wouldn’t mind giving feedback on the above!)
Other than that, overall this is a pretty neat guide. Informative yet straight to the point, was and will be a great reference. Thanks for posting

Not sure when this was posted @Naivety but I just got the notification xD.
Let’s start with Aspersion, I believe this is how it works:
If you put 1 point on Aspersion and then Skill Reset as long as you have bought the attribute once you can still buy it (not entirely sure on this)
If you use Aspergillium and Aspersion is level 0, it acts as if it was level 1.
Enhance MDEF would at level 6 (and your current stats) add 358 m.def. I think def/mdef is a linear scale so it would reduce all magic attacks by 358.
Being able to Simony Daino is very helpful for alts, as I hear it though Pardoners hardly profit from anything they can sell.
167 con is a lot of con xD, should be enough I would think (if not a little too much).
The biggest benefit to Magnus is that it looks pretty… which it is.
You have plenty of heals for ET.
My biggest worry for the build would be current and future magic damage. Enhance MDef helps, but in terms of reducing the threat entirely Oracle has a little more to offer. But, Oracle also lacks Discerning Evil so its a trade off.
The build looks solid, but leveling is going to take some work. For gear either a high m.atk rod or Toy Hammer may be your best bet. (Toy Hammer procs every 2 hits as Chap, and Aspergellium/heal/cure scale with int)
I can say, Blessing on this is going to really really hurt things xD (too lazy to math)
I think that covered everything… let me know if I missed something :3

@MagicTart I edited it and pinged you just earlier today, the build pre-edit was significantly different from this one.
I actually did hear that you can buy and equip the attribute with lv0 Aspersio, so long as you’re a Priest. Either way, I’ll test, but worst-case scenario I’ll just go with lv1 for the attribute and wait for a skill reset event or something.
Enhance MDEF doesn’t sound too useful by itself for PvM, even on a SPR build, I’m aware. Not nearly as useful as Counterspell at least. The idea is more to have it there as a constant buffer, and then if I see we’re mobbed by a magic mob or on a magic-oriented boss or something I can Barrier scroll. (Also, it’s not linear in PvP, so there it can work decently enough by itself.)
If all else fails, the points can go into Indulgentia instead. It needs to be the closest to lv5 it can for effective party curing, as pets and traps can eat the cure charges.
I'm also aware of the poor Simony scroll prices, but at least those are a better profit than Spell Shop :frowning2: Simony'd at least add up over time.
Good to know it sounds solid though. I noticed the magic defense issue, but well, if I end up needing it I might just up and go Oracle1 at some later rank. For rank8, at the very least, Pardoner + Barrier should be enough. (and yes, Discerning Evil is delicious)
Leveling-wise, this won’t be my first character, as this guide recommends: right now I’m just having fun theorycrafting. Hopefully, we’ll have gotten the Blessing buff by the time I get to this one. If it hasn’t yet happened by then though, or if we never get it, I’ll just roll Arde dagger + Cafrisun and buy Pardoner buffs… Krivis’s Zalciai will also help by quite a bit.
Thanks a lot for the feedback. o/
[quote="MagicTart, post:92, topic:249502"] The biggest benefit to Magnus is that it looks pretty... which it is. [/quote]W e l p . Quality game-making right there.
Haha Magnus can situationally be used but it takes too much effort. I have it because it’s stupid and pretty >.>
Good luck with the build! It sounds really interesting and fun :3
It’s not like I don’t get taking a skill just because it’s stupid, so don’t worry >.>
(Even if it were better I’d think twice before taking it though. Stupid INT scaling)

I think that’s why I picked it up, too.
@Naivety
There’s nothing I could add as MagicTart explained everything
It looks like a solid support build and I hope you’ll have fun with it

can i go full con with this build? since all the damage from the attribute
Now that blessing has some scaling, is it worth maxing it now?
Definitely. My Blessing gives 344 atk now because I’m mainly SPR type and I’m just lvl 165.
Definitely you should max.
