Help me with my support/dps hybrid please :)

Class and Rank Cleric
#1

I’ve been playing around with the idea of making a support character that dishes out decent damage but still brings a lot of utility through buffs/debuffs. I’m up to paladin in this progression atm so rank 5 and 6 are totally fluid but I’d really like my rank 7 class to be plague doctor. As a point of reference I personally cannot stand the priest class. http://www.tosbase.com/tools/skill-simulator/build/hmlnr58wv1/

I also had a few questions I was hoping some more experienced cleric users could help me out with

  1. Is Daino 4/5 enough or would 9/10 be much more useful in late game?

  2. Is druid circle 1 a solid pickup or does it begin to shine at circle 2 with sterea troph? If not druid what other class complements my build as far as damage/utility with only 1 or 2 ranks invested in it?

  3. Is krivis circle 3 worth it? The buffs/debuffs seem underwhelming and i could see almost all of them falling off late game (besides daino) and melstis seems way too situational to be useful 95% of the time and is further hampered by being a channeled ability that roots you in place.

  4. Is going paladin circle 3 worth it? from what I hear they are tough to level up later on, fall off hard damage-wise and apparently barrier scrolls are somewhat common anyways eliminating the need for a paladin in the current late game content

Normal clerics with c1 krivis would have lv5 daino. Crazy people like me would have lv10 since I want to hold a good advantage on those filthy commoners using daino scrolls or those with c1 krivis. Filthy. Well, lv5 daino should suffice.

c1 druid is decent. c2 druid is heavenly awesome. If you want to align yourself more on support, then either pardoner or oracle.

If you’re aiming for heavy DPSing, then yes. c3 krivis is good, with lv15 zaibas and probably divine stigma. Others…are heavily based on preference. Melstis, for me is currently screwed so no, not worth it unless you can find its potential.

Besides barrier, having good elemental resistance and other physical skills makes a c3 paladin attactive. c1 is considered…not good. For me, at least reach c2 for more options and such. Yes, you can buy barrier scroll, though I have never seen one yet.

Ahh okay good to know, thanks for the response. You’re making me want to go pally now hahaa. As far as daino scrolls go it’s all fun and games until someone makes a krivis c3 pardoner c3 :stuck_out_tongue:

If you go Pally3 you get access to Conviction which reduces the target’s Elemental Resistance, which in turn increases your Krivis’ Zaibas damage, which is further increased with Zalciai’s Magic Amp. Attribute. So that’s a nice Damage combo there. And of course you have all of those Auras and Barrier for defense.

I do not know if they nerfed this Druid combo but you can increase the duration of Sterea Troph with Krivis3’s Melstis. But then again, do your research on it. And of course the standard Druid damage combo

Diano 10 so you can be ahead of those scroll users. :stuck_out_tongue:

Druid gives you more access to DPS while Paladin gives you more Support and survival. I don’t think you can really go wrong either way.
