Exorcist build ideas

I tried this and i’m enjoying it a lot so far


Druid2 Exo2 is a combination so good that it doesn’t matter what you get on the first circles so i got Bokor1 as a filler to help me lure more monsters with the zombies so i can Rubric them to death, they also help as targets for Seed Bomb and i can even use a Holy version of Damballa when i use Gregorate on them. Thorn is nice but i already have better damage skills with low cooldown so i only put 1 point on it for the CC.

Krivis3 is nice too because Aukuras can be a great aoe heal or extra fire damage buff, Divine Stigma + Zaibas is a good filler and buff, too bad Melstis is kinda useless when you are on your own.

No but it may be a bug because it also doesn’t work with Engkrateia.

I think it’s because of the “linked” nature (i.e. the link is providing the buff, thus not affected by players targeting either side; I guess you could call the link an “installment” type). Those buffs/debuffs can’t be extended by default, e.g. Linkers Life Line buff or Linkers Psychic Shock debuff (by Discerning Evil e.g.).

After testing several builds I think Druid 2 is way too strong to pass. If anything it will be nerfed in the next balance update. Exorcist 2 is also WAY stronger than Exorcist 1, that Rubric attribute just makes you melt anythings it touches. Divine Might works wonder on all Exorcist’s skills so that makes Cleric 2 a stable as well.

So in the end you have rank 3,4,5 to choose.

I tried Bokor 3 and honestly other than hexing I don’t think the whole skillset makes sense in an Exorcist build since zombies get blown up …It still works as Hexing is a strong skill in a magic party. The new Krivis works pretty well with Exorcist 2 as you can Aukuras to stack heal with Druid’s heal or just add +1000 something damage on all your multi-hit magic skills.

Cleric 2 Bokor 3 Druid 2 Exorcist 2
Cleric 2 Krivis 3 Druid 2 Exorcist 2

You can also go for the more support route
Cleric 2 Diev 3 Druid 2 Exorcist 2 (no Miko on a diev build I don’t like this)
Cleric 2 Priest 3 Druid 2 Exorcist 2/Cleric 3 Priest 2 Druid 2 Exorcist 2
(Sacrificing some damage for revive and mass heal, a potential replacement of the healer spot in Velcoffer)

I have tested Cleric 2 Bokor 3 Druid 2 Exorcist 2

Honestly I don’t think it is worth it. You can use Bokor 1 for hexing and zombify and explode them with Gregorate while having another zombify underneath to cycle the zombies. To substitute Mackangdal I would just transform until merog shaman and have another safety zone free to use for me (plus having the bonus of atk since it is a medium monster)

Now, based on that. Cleric 2 I want to keep because it has the extended safety zone and the heal can be useful in a party.

Druid 2 to me is too good to waste, plus if you wanna get kabba for ein soft you can get a large monster to transform and get 75% of HP (only your heal won’t be as strong for the lack of healing power ein soft gives)

Considering that, you can still have a decent dps with bokor 1, a more powerful attack but a longer cooldown.

that would leave you 2 ranks to give support like Priest 2. Or you can mix and get Diev 1 and Paladin 1 for 2 handed mace, resist element and a filler skill (turn undead) to maximize your damage with rubric. Therefore to me so far…

Cleric 2 Bokor 1 Priest 2 Druid 2 Exorcist 2

or

Cleric 2 Bokor 1 Diev 1 Paladin 1 Exorcist 2

If anyone wants to add anything or provide other perspectives I’m glad to hear

Why is Druid2 to good to pass?

And why is there no Sadhu3 in your test.

For me the only Endgame is Velcoffer + Worldboss and maybe (CM).
So: Velcoffer + Worldboss = single target // CM = There are straight up better classes than exo2
To maximize the dps Transmit Prana is a good choice - Cleric1-Krivis3-Sadhu3-Exo2.
Yes I do miss DM but I also tried c2-kriv3-druid2-Exo2 and c2-bokor3-druid2-Exo and and in both cases you burn your DM charges so fast that I think c3 might be worth it.
The Cooldowns of Exo2 are to short to really benefit of skills like Effigy.

c2-kriv3-druid2-Exo2: Aukuras + Chari super nice to have but you still would need a heal/kabba for Velco/Worldbossing and if u have a heal/kabba u won’t need aukuras or chari (for heal) even tho nice to have.

For both cases I think Sadhu3-Exo2 shines more than Druid2-Exo2. Bokor1-3 would be really nice to have for hexing +30% Dark Property attribute since Elememe is still top of the food chain.

@Baluh lol I was about to ask why bokor and not cleric2, then you explained your reason.

@shunzeko1 @SmithFashion all 3 of you said druid2 is really strong with exorcist. Can you please explain your reasoning? I thought sadhu’s transmit prana is too good to be given up, especially if you are krivis3.

@Hazuni @gexmnlin13 Druid2 Exo2 reasons were already spoken in this thread.

EDIT: You can ignore Druid if you want, it is not mandatory (as I am doing, running Krivis3 Sadhu3 on my Exorcist). But we have to acknowledge that it is a really good option to mix support and DPS, you have amazing damage and restoration for just 4 ranks investiment.

Thank you for the reminder :slight_smile: but I did reply to @SmithFashion
I want to know why he thinks:

I’m doing a Cleric2 Priest3 Chaplain Miko Exo2 build right now.

I must say, i’m barely able to use any non-Exo skills since Rubric has such a low cooldown (and is so extremely powerful, even without trans weapons).
Class builds with many damage classes aren’t really that beneficial if you are an Exo2, in my opinion.

I also quite enjoy the Magnus Exorcismus/Entity - combo. If you lure all monsters in one spot and use that combo then all three Entity-MEs are created on top of eachother for some nice combined damage. I wish ME had lower cooldown, though… both Exorcismus and ME should have 30 sec cd… and maybe that immobilize-effect from fire pillar.

I wonder if the amount of Magnus Exorcismus pillars created by the ME/Entity combo is affected by aoe ratio or Entity level, and adding aoe ratio (or inreasing Entity level) could maybe create even more ME pillars…

After trying a number of builds, the one that catches my eye is the 虹春 (Niji haru) build. Loosely translated it means Seven/Rainbow Light/Spring. (rainbow converge into a white light? = =+)

Like the build name, here is the build:

Cleric1 | Krivis1 | Bokor1 | Diev1 | Pardoner1 | Druid1 | PlagueDoctor1 | Exorcist2

and what kind of sinergy have that build ? for a seven rainbow build its miss the blue (paladin) ?

Let’s go with a few things

With druid and your plants you get healed, immunity for your party and damage. Since carnivory remains on the floor you can cast it and then use rubric for more damage.
With transform (C2) you can transform yourself in monster that can give you +40 def/mdef, or give you 110 of atk/matk. As well as multiplying your HP by 75% or increasing your HP and SP recovery by 50%.

If you don’t get druid your options will be PD, oracle, kabba or miko. For me none of them beat the benefits of druid 2

Because it literally does everything in two ranks and it has two lv100 attributes for both Chortasmata and Carnivory.

100%(or close to) up time for the AOE heal as well as the double tick (Chortasmata+Carnivory) damage. AOE Invincibility with super short cooldown, the possibility to transform into something that gives you huge HP/SP boost if you bother to do that, or you could opt into Thorn which is another great DOT skill to add on the your kit.

For two ranks this is so strong it feels like a Rank 8/9 class.

Everyone’s end game is Velcoffer … And no there isn’t “straight up bertter classes than exo2” for these end game content. Velcoffer is a dark mob, no class in this game does holy property damage better than an Exo2.
In a Velcoffer team you typically have a linker 3 variant and spirit shock is gonna boost your damage by 25%, and Lethargy by 35%. I haven’t really looked into it yet but I am sure you can run 5 Exorcist or 4 Exorcist + 1 Linker to clear the dunegon faster than any other combos.

Btw, ALL worldboss are demons. Guess what Rubric does? It ticks TWICE, and guess what - most of them are ALSO DARK PROPERTY. In a recent patch worldboss all have different types of defense so Exorcist can’t fit into the one that can only be dealt with physical damage. But the one weak to magic defense such as Zaura/Marnox, Exorcist is definitely the top 3 class, if not the strongest class.

You essentially use 6 ranks to keep up Transmit Prana for some additional damage on your other non-Sadhu skills. I used to play a Sadhu3 PD, Sadhu needs more than 1 useful skill (possessing is ok but please don’t compare that with Druid’s Chortasmata + Carnivory, it’s laughable) for me to put 3 ranks in it.

With heals being so important now, I would not drop Cleric 2 as well. Fade is so handy in Velcoffer.

Bokor 3 gives you 2 skills in 3 ranks and your zombies get blown by Gregorate. Hexing is great really so this part is really up to personal preference, it fits perfectly with Druid anyway.

Sadhu 3 HAS to stick with Krivis 3 for it to work so you are actually comparing Sadhu 3 + Krivis 3 against Druid 2. Like I said, 6 ranks just to keep up a damage buff? I will gladly stick with my Chortasmata+Carnivory+Sterea Trofh.

Yeah I’m kind of sad that paladin isn’t in for the color, but for synergy wise it has to be out. There’s all sorts of synergy in the build.

Here is how the build roughly plays

  • Chortasmata + Carnivory + Zombify adds 3 debuffs for Incinerate to Thrive.
  • Laima while provides a debuff too, the main part of it is to reduce cooldown of Druid/Exo skills
  • Pardoner’s Discerning Evil extends the debuffs
  • Krivis’s Aukuras and Druid’s Chortasmata provides the off heals that is needed
  • Zombies for Holy Damballa and are carriers for Seedbomb
  • Tet Mamak La is a good skill to herd zombies together for a massive Seedbomb explosion or to help gather mobs for incinerate/aqua.

I think you got that part wrong so I put breaks in between…

Yes I do use 6 ranks for “just Transmit Prana” but so what? I never put possesing on the table so what the *** is that.

All I did was putting up 2 straight scenarios aka Endgame (Velco + Worldbossing (ofc only Zaura/Marnox))
and the question for the best dps output for Exo2 + my personal opinion that your druid2/exo2 would still need the support of a real heal cleric.

Isn’t Summon: Force Attack the same but free?

Summon: Force Attack needs a target. Tet Mamak La can throw into an empty plot, can throw it onto Chortasmata if it is still around to give 10sec dot to mobs that follow the zombies.

So you don’t use possessing? You have 45 skill points, in which only Transmit Prana can be utilized? 1 skill for 6 ranks, that’s how bad it is.

Uh not really, I already ran velcoffer with a druid2/priest 3/exo2 and we got more than enough heal. We have a 600+spr linker so when lifeline hits the exo just heals everyone up completely. I haven’t tried with a druid 2 + krivis 3 for Aukuras + Druid stack heal yet but I think it would probably work just fine.

There were some guy up there saying lv5 aukuras with 300Spr and lv100 attribute heals 4.5k per sec. A lv15 Aukuras with 600spr will probably heal 10k per sec…? Either way if Velcoffer doesn’t kill the Aukuras with 1 hit then I don’t see any problem.

No. Warlocks Mastema doubles the damage of holy property skills (tested it) , so there is no way that in a competition without Bokor Warlockmeme would outdamage Exorcist. Exorcist will simply outdamage Warlock since Mastema is his strongest skill, so he will obviously use it, resulting in doubled damage for Exorcist.

And Exorcist can deal about 40000% with every one of his skills on the enemy if he’s dark property, while warlock suffers an elemental penalty.

The only reason why Warlock might have a chance in the first place is because of the fact that he can use a Staff for more matk, but even in that case, he’ll most likely drop dead sooner or later if not healed by the Exorcist, so he’s the loser by default in the competition.

For the team to clear Velcoffer the fastest, my guess would be Thauma-Linker + Warlock + 3x Exorcist, since the +100% damage boost of Mastema is pretty much too good to pass on.
With 3x Exorcist, you’ll have 3 Clerics for doubled damage on Koinonia, which in turn can also reach over 40000% in this combination and has 100% uptime. It’s pretty logical imo that you’d combine all these factors for the best outcome.
Sure,you wouldn’t have full CON for everyone in this setup, but that’s not needed, my own Exorcist already has got 511 CON to share, which should be more than enough to keep everyone with enough defence alive, and I’m pretty sure there should be Exorcists with more CON out there as CON is so very beneficial to the cause of what is endgame.

rubric its the strongest skill on the entire cleri tree but its top damage its only 7500% of dps 1250% each 0.25 sec per 1.5 on dark monsters and x2 on demons but even with mastema the best dps its FF. kundela still on the top of damage and elementalist adds damage to the rotation. but you cant do nothing when you cast rubric
