make sure you do the math yourself before giving advises to someone else.
@nizidr
Nice try baiting
If you really want me to do it give me the numbers and Iâll think about it
My âadviseâ stands.
Additional attention:
The formula clearly states the importance of skill level
Make sure everyone max it and use with Divine Might
So a quick calculation with 300 Int 100 Spr lvl 15 Bless will give you +168. That is a really great improvement from the fixed + 70.
That, added to the attribute that is +100 is 268. It is really good actually. I didnât expected a gigantic improvement, because bless still applies to every sub-hit applied and that scales quickly.
Every buff helping blessing stay relevant is nice.
A question on the new blessing formula. Does the blessed damage amount scale according to the priest (casterâs) stats or it varies on each player it applies to? Like if a swordsman or archer with low int and spr gets it will it be lesser?
What about pardoner shops? Will the amount change based on pardonerâs stats or the buyerâs stats?
It will probably scale with the caster status. But the pardoner is still a mistery. It SHOULD take in consideration the pardonerâs status, but can the game recognize this when they leave the shop open?
Squires already use a similar mechanic with [weapon/armor maintenance] and INT (lol INT). It shouldnât be that hard if they already have something to work with.
when you read the tooltip of the buff youâre buying, it tells you exactly what youâre getting.
it already needs to snapshot a small selection of data, just to remember all the information about the shop, skill levels, and attributes added, etc. telling it to capture the Spr and Int along with the rest of the data would be trivial.
Thanks. This is really a good qn, but if it scales according to the casterâs/pardonerâs stats⌠Thraumaturge is going to get a boost in popularity too (snap shotting of the stats while creating the shop?).
no, it -probably- wouldnât work like that.
although⌠whenever this patch does come around⌠anyone with lots of free time should try that out, say in the field.
get swol up, open a shop, and have party check what youâre offeringâŚ
then check again in a minute (or whatever the duration of swell head isâŚ)
INT and SPR builds will be fineâŚexcept the headache that the skill point distribution will cause⌠XD
But I was thinking about it too and it kinda kills off other stat builds like STR/DEX Priest⌠they still can get lvl 3 Blessing and it will be something for them⌠but now a STR/DEX build would be much less advisable what is not that nice⌠it makes Priests less versatile.
Also Revive gets less and less appealing to me⌠I know the nerf is for pvp but I was always a bit more pvp oriented in mind.
My question would be btw if Revive still gets its attribute at least so can it have about 1 min duration with about 2 min cooldown now?
I still think Sacrament with Last Rites is fine so I donât care if they touch those⌠but I rly hope they will do something with Monstrance and Exorcize too btw.
For chaplain it is rather pointless to level Aspersio now (Lv1 is enough) because you get 21 damage per Skillpoint to Aspergillium damage (42 at 100% attribute).
At 200 SPR each level of Blessing will give 200*0.06 + 3.9 = 16 damage per every hit. Base attack + cafrisun + sacrament + last rites + aspergillium = 5 hits = 80 damage increase per skillpoint.
The only time when leveling Aspersio is better is when you fight Devil type (+100% holy damage) monsters with Ghost armor (+50% from magic damage).
Its already included.
I think Aspersion is fine. Itâs defense bonus maybe isnât that super great but I donât think it is neglectable. Someone could make a more defensive build with it and still have some damage.
Also you can take Sac 10, Blessing 15 and Aspersion 15 too and it wouldnât even be bad now.
I can imagine an INT chaplain build that takes those and put the 5 points left on Exorcize or 2 on Resu 3 on Revive. Of course because no mass heal you should definitely take c2 Cleric with itâŚbut it is totally fine especially with an INT build.
I think though by dropping mass heal you sacrifice utility. And if youâre going for cleric 2, you might as well go full SPR. For an int build I think your 6&7 should be Druid.
Druid is a nice class for INT cleric builds for sure but it is not mandantory at all. PD and Kabbalist is totally fine too.
Also I didnât meant you canât have cleric c2 with an SPR build I just meant that Heal and Cure both scale with INT nicely so it would fit in the build well that I mentioned and then even without Mass Heal I donât think the build would be worse than any other build that doesnât even include Priest.
if you -donât- level it, you only get the base dmg of a lv1 Aspersion. (if youâre gonna do that, might as well not spend anything. itâll default to lv1 anyway.)
if you -do- level it, you get the base damage of whatever level your Aspersion is at.
iâm not sure that leveling Aspergillum increases the damage any. I think it only increases the duration.
ew. not worth it.
2 Ress, 1 Stoneskin, 2 Revive.
also because of all that Int, you have really strong heals, so 5 tiles is enough for a careful party.
HahaâŚyeah⌠I just hope someday they will do something with that skill too⌠and Magnus 
Also I talked about an INT build so Stone Skin lvl 1 wouldnât be that good for thatâŚbut an SPR Chap could take the damage skills only too if thats what he wantsâŚactually with lvl 5 Stone Skin someone could even have a maxed out Capella thenâŚwhat is an option too imo.
Isnât lvl 1 Aspersion still mandatory to get the Aspersion damage attribute?
is it? idk, i thought the requirement was c1 priest?
to me it simply doesnât matter either way.
if youâre not going to level aspersion up, why bother with the attribute either?
and if you want the damage attribute, then why would you -not- level the skill up?
