Dungeons do you need tank healer dps set up for them?

General Discussion
#1

Been playing around with skill simulator thingy. Am curious do you need a tank - healer - dps set up for dungeons in Tree of Savior?

I often like playing healing classes, but the fact that in Tree of Savior they have to melee to level is pushing me away from my normal class. Other hand I am nervous to make a Wizard since there is often tons of them…so makes it hard to find teams for dungeons if tank and healer are also needed.

Also anyone know if there is some kind of group finder in the game to que up for?

you could possibly do dungeons without those, but a healer at least would be nice

a good tank and a team with potions don’t n necessarily need a healer

a team with a good healer don’t necessarily need a tank

and DPS is just a matter of “how fast you want to clear it”

i think 1 DPS and 1 Healer would be the >minimum< for a healthy dungeon run haha

but OFC if you have all the roles would be better XD

the “meta” parties are a linker/cryo c3, a tank with swash buckler, a priest (healer), a krivis (for buff limits) and a heavy DPS

From the ICBT i would say :

  • You don’t really need a tank since you can evade most of attacks manually (only some auto atk magics from some magics monsters are target locked instead of floor locked). But a swordsman with the provoke skill can help you since it can help to mob train a little easily even if you don’t really need it (one auto-atk/skill will aggro the hitted monsters).
  • For the Heal it seems nearly mandatory 'cause most of the time the damage from the mobs will be higher than the potions and their cooldown.
  • Dps isn’t mandatory either you could go with a 5tank formation, just that it will take more time to clean that’s all.

I mostly forgot how it was sadly, i was playing as an offtank cataphract with a healer-offtank-1supp-2dps type of formation at that time and we wouldn’t have died at all in the three attempts if there haven’t been any bug at the first attempt (some sort of freeze screen for every players, but monsters continuing attacking at that time/ didn’t had any problem in others attempts after that)

Anyway even a team without heal could be possible but it would be the longest one to clean it maybe, because you’d need to campfire sometime so you don’t use all your pot stock ^^ and so you’d need to clean a little slower without taking too much monsters at the same time ^^

Nothing is ‘mandatory’.

Even without tank a decently built character won’t get one-shotted.

With proper control, monsters shouldn’t hit your team that hard (or doesn’t hit at all) and potion/bonfire will suffice.

There’s no enrage timer so there’s no ‘minimum’ DPS for most of the game.

Having them would help the run goes by smoother, but they are not mandatory (not in the WoW holy trinity sense where without tank people get one-shotted, without healer tank won’t last long, and without enough DPS boss will enrage thus all 3 ARE mandatory)

Not for all dungeons, no.

Most dungeons are relatively easy and can be done with just a tank or a healer.
A few a bit more difficult.

But content like Earth Tower is entirely different (guild raid iirc) and will require specific builds. Though i cannot say if tanks will be needed.

Nor do we know what end game content will be like yet.

PS, Never go full support cleric. It can so much more without sacrificing anything. (i’m not familiar enough with the other classes tbh)

thank you all for the info ^^

#7

tank can be optional for all dungeons and missions until now. but, a linker and a healer are very demanded in a party. the rest will just DPS to work out to kill the monsters and bosses.

FS cleric helps a lot to accelerate your dungeon games.

You can complete a dungeon without healer or tank. but believe me, it’s wayyyyyyyy more easier if you have them.

I had one time runing 145 dungeon, all Archer, it’s take me 20 mins to complete, multiple HP/SP pot some equipment damage because I dies.

and another time we have a Rederero and Pardonner, it’s take only 10 mins to complete and no one die, well actually I die once cuz boss one-shot me, but Pardonner revive me back immediately.
