Cleric > Krivis Build possibilities

Class and Rank Cleric
#1

Hi. I’m new to the game and I’ve been looking around for the best possible builds. I already started a character with Cleric1>Krivis1 but I’m a little worried. My initial tought was to build a battle paladin with STR:INT:SPR but I can tell from what I’ve seen that it won’t work very well.

I like both PvP and PvE (PvP a little more) and I would like to build a hybrid melee/caster of sorts, do you guys know any builds? I’m open to playing any cleric variation as long as it has some melee in it.

Is the Cleric>Krivis>Krivis>Paladin>Paladin>Paladin>Krivis build viable? What about Cleric>Krivis>…>Monk? Also, I would very much appreciate if I didn’t have to reroll from Cleric>Krivis, hope it’s not too late to build a viable hybrid.

Thanks in advance for the input. Hope to see you all in game.

Closest option would be a int or spr based cleric2/krivis/paladin3/?

But they’re not very good imo, and you likely wasted some stats anyway.

Ow and paladins are pretty much rubbish for pvp.
Or you could try turning it into a generic spellcaster build.

Krivis-monk is rare and you’ll never encounter them but it is a plausible path, though most people wouldn’t suggest you.

Currently lv105 Krivis3 going for Monk Dex build, and very satisfied with it, Zaibas is powerfull and very usefull mob control despite having no INT invested, I currently have 10 INT (+3 from bangle and 78 from stigma)
No cast time, fairly low cooldown compared to wizard class skills, It even outclass wizards skills in damage from rank 1-3 (and perhaps even rank 4)

I am able to solo Boss rush the lv50 and lv90 Dungeons thanks to Zaibas

Unlike Priest3 Build which is a autoattack DPS build, Krivis is on the Burst type damage, with great AoE for mob control.

It shines in high mob rate dungeons and does poorly on low mob areas due to short duration of Zalciai and Stigma,

auto attack is poor since there is no skill that amplifies damage from STR
but you can buy buffs like blessing and sacrament to compensate, play style is pretty straight forward, Drop Zaibas on a group of enemies while auto attack at the same time, or in Bosses Drop Zaibas and Run if safety zone is on cooldown

Zalciai’s effects is noticable only at higher levels and is best cast on enemies. with 100 Dex it gives me almost around 80-90% Crit rate

Stigma is useless on boss fight with no creep summons, but very usefull when you get it, usually its your party members that will feel the benefit from it like sowrdsmen and Wizards

Party Play - leave the Healing to the Priest Builds, you role is to help buff up damage and Mob control with zaibas, use Heal and Safety zone to back up the Healer in case their hands are full

IMHO its a very versatile build not boring. Do I recommend it? Can’t tell for now, since I never played icbt, I don’ t know if this build will fall of at late game. but i have seen vids of Krivis3 Monk builds doing well at around lv 200, I IMHO Cleric2 Priest2 is the best build for Monk

overall I am very satisfied with it, I can see Palm strike and Knife Hand helping me setup Zaibas and for mob control once I reach C1 Monk but I think I’ll only invest 1 point on each just for the utility

I remember watching a lot and reading a lot for the International release - I went with the choice of building cleric 1, Kriv 2, Paladin 1, Monk 3…I’m almost to Monk circle 2 atm, I would say that I’m quite impressed with the build…its rare for one…does alot of damage…has a good support abilities to stay alive…you can buff your attacks and gain benefits of additional buffs with Kriv…The reason I went Kriv 2 is for the stigma boost…I thought that was over powered for the play style I was building. I’m actually building hybrid, atm I have 180 str. 80 Int, and 80 dex…My zai hits around 700’s, 1600’s if weak to it…my smite dmg is hitting around 4.6k whites and 8k crits, Double punch hits around 1k whites and 2.2k crits…I’m still waiting on to see what the energy blast will do when I achieve circle 2 monk…I’ve heard enerygy blast works of str, con, and int…so we will see.

#6

Thanks for the answers. I will try a krivis monk builds I think. What should I go after krivis1 keep going krivis or cleric or maybe even priest?

#7

For your build to have a solid footing and still be effective on later levels you need to take at least 2-3 circles of the same class, since you already have a Krivis circle, I suggest going another krivis1, after that you may go all the way to Krivis3 or pick Cleric 2nd circle for the Heal, Safety Zone and or Cure giving you a solid defensive footing (Cure is a very powerful offensive skill if you build enough INT) Fade can also be usefull to help avoid enemies while charging Energy Blast

after that if you decided you don’t want to be a monk you have a solid low rank class build to branch anywhere you like

Priest might also be a good choice Just for the Resurection and Monstrance if you’re going dex build

hybrid builds that takes just 1 circle of each class tend to fall off on later levels when monsters have HP of 100k and over, even at low levels hybrid builds tend to find it difficulty to join dungeon raids

what is important is that you early class choices must benefit the higher rank classes effectively/efficiently

#8

Would cleric>krivis>krivis>krivis>monk>monk>monk be better than krivis 2 and paladin? Also, thanks a lot for taking the time to help me!

#9

Paladin C1 is just to lacking to be effective later on, and does not synergize well with Monk nor contribute to its effectiveness, Once you hit Monk 2 and 3, lv5 smite becomes useless when your Double Punch reaches 3k up to 5k per hit and Energy Blast 9k per hit

#10

Yup. Will be rolling a SPR/Block Pen Krivis Monk.

Why would you touch Paladin if you’re not going C3? imo waste of a skill rank.

[/quote]cool costume? Pala.
More zaibas? Krivis.
More heal? Cleric.

Kinda hard at this point - you got the rest of them alright so better find your preference.

#12

Thanks, I’m leaning towards monk with C1>K1>K2>C2>Monk>Monk>Monk.
Or maybe Paladin>Paladin>Paladin lol. I just like paladins, even if they are lackluster. Maybe they’ll be buffed someday and my build will shine or maybe I’ll be stuck in build purgatory.

Anyways. Thanks a lot guys, I really liked the Krivis playstyle over priest and I’m happy to know I can build a melee of it.

#13

I went cleric>kriv>Kriv>Pala…just for the resistance and restoration, not so much for the smite…but the smite isn’t all that bad especially because you can knock up, its helps for PvP, i’ve definitely caught people off guard with it…I do 9k crits with a crappy weapon…I haven’t got to try out my magas mace yet…it will definitely pull more then 10k easy. I plan on rolling Monk c3 also

#14

i went

edit: zaibas [10] is great for clearing large waves of monsters, and witha high int build, i can usually summon max zombies with a single round of spells.

at level 127 i think right now, so just getting started with my bokor c2. I saved points from C1 because i really wanted to be a zombie master, but I will put them back into effigy as i close out ranks. not sure where to go from here, thinking maybe oracle instead of c3 bokor? into kabbalist to make my zombies really strong? or plague doctor to spread hexing? except i see plague doctors everywhere :confused: and i’ve never seen a kabbalist out in the wild…

#15

in my case i just do… Clerig c2, Krivis c2 and monk c3 (i atm in monk c1 because is no my main character) str 3 1 con 1 dex is what im building. zaibas help to level up whit hammer it is only level 5 (and i will wipe out when arrive to monk c3 surely) for my build surely it will be useless (zaibas i mean) now my stats are in level 128 : str165 (up 205 whit divine stigma) con 30, int 15 (a litle mistake here)20 spr (for some sp… just personal option) and 60 dex (some dodge and a litle critcal rate) i will build critical rate in my weapons surely… im testing the skills from monk c1 but i will max iron skin…¿200%? damage back to the enemy? (in level 15) it could be a great skill lets see if is good than i spect it.
