Class doubts Wizard/Cleric/Swordsman! Help a new savior out

Hi I’d like to require the guidance of veteran players out here.

First, I’d like to rule out the possibility of using HP pots. I don’t really like usage of pots as much as possible.Although It seems inevitable with the current Sp mechanics.

On the wizard topic, is a single circle of featherfoot enough for Hp lifesteal?
Wizard build Wiz3-Linker3-Featherfoot1-Shadowmancer2

Now to my second dilemma. I could only play 2 characters since I don’t really want to spend too much time on leveling/doing alt runs/farming/gearing/etc, on characters. If you’ve had a hint, I am enticed with classes that have a self-healing/heal. I am wondering if we would have a self heal/lifesteal swordie or should I just stick to a physical damage based Cleric. (Since Kim was once the lead developer of RO, i’m guessing Tos has similar concepts infused with it, I’ve researched whether self-healing/lifesteal class were a thing there. there were some classes bu they are either cleric or sorcerers.)

Swordsman build- standard sw3-Barb3-Dop3
Cleric build- Cleric 3-Paladin3-Kabbalist1-zealot2

Thank you

You probably want to avoid this one, Doppel is one of the few classes that chug hp potions almost every cd.

This is okay for your plans. If you’re a soloist cleric1 is usually enough for the heals

Pretty much all Swordsman builds have to use potions to get by so that does not seem to fit your playstyle.

Kabbalist fits well since you get to restore your SP. As mentioned Cleric3 is a tad overkill, Cleric2 is fine enough and you could get Diev1 for Laima statue to reduce your cooldowns which would be more valuable to you than the extra heal tiles since you aren’t getting Krivis3 for meltsis.

For this build you may want to consider going into heavy SPR and SP, so you can take full advantage of Blind Faith, also so you don’t have SP issues in general.

Swordman = pot addict
Wizard = by the time you hit FF you wont be able to quit the pots

so cleric is the only one you can say clean with :slight_smile:

@Remiri I have my current build into a str cleric. I don’t really know how blind faith works, is it really good on full spr?

@DrRM I figured that. I still have a sliver of hope with the new Ktos update on reflect shield, lest planning to do a full spr wiz/thauma instead. I wonder if that’s any good.

Since blind faith uses your SP to determine the added damage, full SPR builds are popular. With full STR you will run out of SP very quickly and will need to supplement Ein Sof with pots.

You would need at least wiz 2 to get some decent use out of it and even then am not sure if it would lower the pot use…

but I will also try it when it comes :smiley:

1 Circle of FF is enough to Heal.
Anyways, with the upcoming Wizard rebalance, I’d suggest to make a change to that build:
Wiz 2 > Linker 3 > Sorcerer > FF > Shadowmancer 2

Make it full SPR. You won’t have any mana nor HP problems this way, neither will damage be bad.
Hexing (Featherfoot debuff from Bone Pointing / Kurdaitcha) will make Dark type magic deal 50% more damage.
With 1 Circle of Sorcerer, you’d make full use of your SPR through the summon, but also max level of summon familiar will be decent (dark type) but most importantly Summon Servant (which at lv5, or 6 divine might) will lower your SP recovery time down to 10 secs, besides it adding AoE attack ratio.

This is how mine is gonna be: https://tos-ktest.neet.tv/skill-planner#2117776gjj.2a4a5961.11213f435a7a65.156585.1325314551.1a2a31415563
Already tested on ktest ^^

if u want a versatile class for wiz I’'d suggest a sorc2 build (full SPR)

if the reason is because of silver cost, then he wont like sorcerer’s summon servant, which will cost 2000 silver every 5 minute of recast

he can always skip summon servant since it’s not that useful as a sorcerer (tho its great for builds that require AoE atk ratio)

[summon servant] is crucial for not relying on sp potions and those cost more than 2k per 5mins on some classes.

Go meta AA cleric: c1-priest3-chap-kriv3-inq1. It’s a good starter class (relatively cheap) and when you get enough silver can be used quite well as dps.

wiz2-link2-thau3-sage2/sm2 full spr , this build can make your rich , other class need many investment but this class can survive with potato item

I thought it was 200?

I checked and realized that it’s the same item for crafting Enchanter scrolls.

Omg , It will be expensive be a wizard:/

i don’t think it’s that cheap since inquisitor’s flame attribute cost 20mln :v and that’s a key feature of this build afaik

Fine I’ll break down the reply to make it even easier to understand

In the beginning you rely completely on lines of atk and [blessing] which is cheap. You can stay in 5hammer cafisun while you are comfortable.

You don’t stay poor forever. With how silver is gained in dg you eventually get enough silver (even 20m) . You gradually get to max lv burn. Later you can farm even more silver for a better weapon (which is another 15-20m) so you can stop relying completely on lines of atk and [blessing] and actually use your SF and other multipliers. It’s even more expensive when you decide you want to trans.

  • [aspersion] 322%
  • [daino] 100% (the extra line is 100% weapon atk)
  • basic atk 100%
    When your weapon still sucks all this doesn’t really matter.

Bottom line is, the build allows you to build up the fortune required to optimize it’s damage. It’s not like other builds that require you have pimped out gear already for your build to even function, let alone be optimized.

Lines of atk -> burn -> trans weapon

Just look at some of OP’s starting interests: shadowmancer, doppel, zealot. All of them do next to nothing with a crappy weapon because they all rely heavily on SF. There is no “poor phase” going to “well to do phase” going to “rich phase”. They are all “get carried until you can pull your own weight phase” going to “rich phase”.
