Divine might is one of the worst abilities in the game.
Iām sorry, but you are completely and utterly wrong that āpriest isnāt the best supportā that you can get in the cleric tree.
With P3, you get 5 Stoneskin and 10 into Mass Heal. 2 of the most potent direct heal/damage mitigation abilities in the entire game. Going Cl2 ->P3 means most people would NEVER DIE unless they did something really, really stupid. And if they DID get close to dying, Revive is up almost full time to prevent that death should it occur.
Krivis has Zalciai and Divine Stigma at C2. Diev has cooldown reduction (which is pretty huge, admittedly), SP cost reduction, and a silence at C2 (which Fade from Cleric C2 works similarly with half the cooldown and almost the same duration for the same amount of points spent).
After that you have what? Pardoner and Paladin before Circle 7? Both of those pale in comparison to pretty much any of the āsupportā ranks up to that point. Pardoner is nice for making money, but thatās pretty much it. And Paladin is meh without Barrier, which requires C3.
Just curious. Does revive offset silver loss from death penalty?
If not then its understandable why pple will prefer survivability over revive.
You donāt lose anything when Revive is consumed. It literally just brings you back up to x% health, with that health being based on the level of the skill.
