How does Negative elemental property effect damage?

Class and Rank Cleric

So the question comes from pally’s conviction. It knocks, 100 property resit off mobs for fire,lightning, etc. I heard in KTOS negative property is possible for mobs now making them take significantly higher damage from things like holy attack, etc.

SO my question is. If you knock 100 lightning resit off a boss with conviction, then use storm call zaibas, would you do outstandlingly more damage or would it literally only add 100(x attribute)(+500% storm call) damage.

I’m pretty sure in theory it should give alot more than 100 damage more per hit.

This is the build in question

and in general, regardless of this potentially broken combo if it makes your damage do more than 100 damage per tick, you still have a huge kit of awesome spells(melstis,barrier which is getting a buff, Max aukuras and resto which is probably the most awesome combo ever for passive healing.

its also pretty future proof since you will 100% be getting taoist 2-3 unless another good class comes out. (i’m pretty sure you would just take taoist 2-3 for the creeping and more storm call duration.

Whoever told you that is trolling you.

See this thread and videos: Can someone explain what's going on here - Chap Pal3 video

While I don’t know exactly what’s causing it, we already ruled out conviction consider the dmg was still incredibly high without it.

Besides property resists are not the same as magic defense. So you would still need to bypass the ever so high r8 mdef.
And a kriv/tao is already 6 ranks out of 8, you haven’t got room for pala3 and it can’t compete with druid3 either.

Nor can I see your build, the link isn’t working properly for me.

Conviction does work to greatly enhance Zaibas + Storm Calling. However I don’t think it’s worth pursuing something as ridiculous as Cleric C1 - Krivis C3 - Paladin C3 - Taoist C1 though just for a gimmick whose best feature is probably killing bosses in Fedimian missions.

This kind of build would have overall poor team support in late game and equally poor damage over time (only having a somewhat stronger version of the typical Krivis Taoist burst cycle).

It does lend a huge boon in hp recovery from aukuras + resto while adding tons of elemental resists(almost 200 fire alone). And the fact barrier is getting a buff.

Darksight makes every kite floor easier.You also have a host of other strong skills for buff support while focusing on main damage through creeping death and zaibas. Both if you were to go full int, would have enough damage with a sub par attack rod to kill mobs with insane magic def (but you’d be going full int and relying on the gem update for hp in shirt/bottom/shoes and using at least 3 plate equip)

for zaibas its roughly with max int 850 + 350 = 1200 +1100(magic attack that max int gives) = 2300 meaning you’d at most need to supplement 1200 more damage for 3500 md which can come in the form of hats, daggers, and a trancended rod. (not to mention creeping death already is at the 3500 with just straight int).

I’m not saying it would be a godly build. I was more interested in seeing how it did with world bosses since it would burst a few million damage at a time.

I fixed it just so you know

It gives a lot more damages.
I actually tried it yesterday… I have a Paladin 3 with Conviction, and this other guy has a Krivis-Taoist.
We had a player with 2k MDEF to be our target.

Only Zaibas, the Krivis-Taoist did 300-400 damages.
With Conviction it went to 1.5-2k. With Storm added, it went to 3k.

It is nice damages, but too situational imo.
I don’t think the burst damages would be enough for World Bosses. You’ll basically only count on Zaibas and it has a 30 seconds cd + boss can move from the circles + someone can Reversi your Zaibas.
If it didn’t take that many circles it’d be a good bonus I think, but a full build with that would be quite limited I feel.
Sounds like a possible fun alt though :3

Well, with changes coming to barrier and the fact Taoist has 2 more circles. It could just become a really oppressive build.

Sit behind barrier, throw out creepings and storm/zaibas while in your safe space. If you get hit, you basically heal all of your hp up in a few seconds due to resto and aukar

Regardless, its an alt i’m going to try because who knows.

Plus, why did it only go to 3k per hit and not way more?
