There are reasons why Kabba3 is popping up more and more. Velcoffer, Demon Lords, higher level Guild Raids, and the upcoming Territory Wars all need kabba3 to keep everyone alive.
Sure, in casual content like stage 5 CM, it’s hardly necessary. So is every other rank in the cleric tree. All you need in stage 5 CM is a cleric 2 to lay down heal tiles and keep everyone alive. In dungeons and saalus, nobody even needs any kind of cleric. And why bother using any kind of cleric for farming when you can have better net profit using thauma or corsair?
You don’t say a build is bad or a role is unnecessary when you don’t even know what content the person wants to do with their character.
You can consider having priest2 instead of putting in 3 circles of diev for harder content. Revive alone is worth putting in 2 circles of priest for end game. Diev3 is mostly for static content such as CM and ET.
Nope, that is a wrong assumption. If Kabbalist really was needed for this, then why is there only 1 Kabba C3 in those parties? A party has 5 Players and Kabbalist C3 only offers 2x Ein Sof per CD, so if Kabbalist really was needed, this would result in parties having at least 2 Kabbalist C3 players to provide 4x Ein Sof.
However, this is not the case. People can still survive without Ein Sof, otherwise 3 of 5 players would be permanently dead in Belcoper raid since they run with only one Kabbalist C3 player.
The reason why Kabbalist C3 is popular is simply because people don’t like to put their status points into CON and invest into their armor (+11 armor is becoming more common, but have you seen many people with +16 or higher armor? Armor transcendence is also quite rare, mainly TBL players transcend any of their armor to survive).
That’s not all,though. Status boost potions and skill scrolls are also rarely used, although they can help a lot with survival.
To state that Kabbalist C3 is needed is simply not true, it is an alternative to investing in your character/building it to actually survive on its own.
Because some people only want to play Cleric? I don’t care if Thauma or Corsair is better for farming, I simply dislike the idea of having to play an alt even more than I already have to to get my Solmiki gears/blessed shards.
I want to farm on the character I main, and it’s a Kabbalist because the Class is unique to this game.
Btw, I forgot to correct this one:
This is not true.
It’s actually rather the opposite, because Gevurah can’t go past the damage cap with its multiplication.
So if the attack already hits over 389000 damage, multiplying the damage simply will result in 777777 damage.
Gevurah is actually stronger with AoE multihit skills than with strong single target skills (in this case Double Chance provides better overall damage).
Because not everyone in the party has to have ein sof? You give ein sof to 2 of your glass cannons so you’d have less people to worry about dying. Besides, you forgot that some parties in ktos bring in other support classes, such as another cleric or wizard support that have builds that are more lenient in terms of stats or equipment, hence they can wear shields and have con and not get one shot. There are also archers that are more mobile, letting them avoid a lot of the skills that melee dps wouldn’t be able to.
Because transcending armor has been impractical up until they introduced the 2nd update to transcendence. It’s not like transcending weapon where you only have 1 to worry about. You’d have to spend a lot of gems transcending your top, bottom, gloves, and boots. And the whole point of players not adding con is so they can maximize the damage they deal. What the hell is the use of a party if you can’t have strengths and weaknesses that can be supplemented by other partymates?
If that’s your cup of tea, then okay. But most people know that they can’t cover every aspect of the game with just 1 single character.
+20% matk, and you become ranged like a mage if using a rod, also you can block magic attacks with shield.
With Bokor’s Samediveve level 11(divine might) you get 7 movement speed, add the garment bonus and you move at an extra 12 movement speed permanently.
You can combo with your premade party to burst bosses, refill completely mana bars with einsof and triplicate hp of people.
Bokor3 Damballa and Effigy do nice filler damage, especially when you have a good rod.
You can fill the build with miko to buff people in pve or oracle to cancel skills with counter spell in pvp.
@GadenRhoss Lol those attributes are pretty much my incentives for kabbalist3, and the double ein sof
Edit: thanks everyone for sharing the info. I will read them carefully and consider what to do. I’m not worried whether kabbalist is good or bad. I have MANY alts to play with. I’m mostly just trying to experience the classes and have fun.
Which skill the other player used to produce such damage? (I understood that most of damage are from your debuffs, I am just getting to know better which skills is the best with burst dps)
