Many questions about Bokor C1/C2

Class and Rank Cleric
#1

Cleric2 -> Kirvis2 ->Bokor2 (???) -> PD

I have a fair amount of questions about bokor class in general:

  1. How viable is it to rely on zombies at C2? I heard they are super ultra slow and even that they kill you, the summoner. Not sure if those were beta rumors or true. I heard almost nothing about their damage (on what is their damage based) and/or HP.

  2. Does effigy exclusively requires you to be used after hexing? No other debuff skill applies?

  3. How many times can i cast hexing before it goes into cooldown? Once? One enemy every 9 seconds?

  4. How is Mackangdal good? It can potentially get you killed, if i understood the skill description correctly.

  5. Is effigy as good as people claim? I keep hearing that for an INT build it is pretty crazy strong.

  6. Is your main weapon as a boko2 a mace (melee-based weapon with some magic damage) or a cane (pure magic damage weapon)?

  7. How important is SPR for your zombies? I have heard it is not THAT important and should just focus on INT.

Current stats (i haven’t allocated those points yet…)

Maybe i should spend a lot more on SPR. Or maybe just focus on INT.

Hi!
I’m a pretty fresh C2 Bokor. (Cleric > Krivis > Bokor C2)
Tried to gather as much intel as possible, but it’s hard to find stuff that isn’t from the beta. Some stuff I can answer:

  1. Not reliable. They ARE super ultra slow, but they can’t kill you- at least I never experienced that. HP rely on your SPR, can take some hits. Damage is just as reliable as they are fast.

  2. Yes. Not sure if other curses are working, I read some mixed info about that. But your class’ only way is Hexing.

  3. Once. The AoE ratio increases with each skill level, the debuff has a small AoE (which is, in my experience, kind of buggy or has a weird targeting system). If you kite monsters, it is pretty easy to hit multiple targets. Would recommend skill level 5-10.

  4. Yep, but you are invincible for the duration. It’s supposed to synergize with Safety Zone and other skills, no experience on that since I haven’t spend a point on it yet.

  5. The multiplier becomes really awesome at higher skill levels.

  6. Since you are (most likely) going for INT, a mace falls behind in damage kinda fast. I used a mace until 75 for easier leveling with AA, but now it became useless.

  7. Multiple opinions on that. Some say that SPR is great for spamming Effigy and your other skills, some say that low INT sucks. Personally, I’m planning at least 50 SPR because Effigy drains your SP REALLY FAST (almost as fast as the Zombies are slow, you know the drill).

Take some of my replies with a grain of salt, since I’m only Rank 4 yet and don’t know much about the later PvE-situation.

I think there is a “flag” bokor skill that makes them fast and a chance to create “wheelchair zombies”.

Oh well, if they are slow then no point in focus for zombify i guess.

I was thinking that since im kirvis2 and have lv 10 zaibas that can AOE, i could easily make an army of zombies in seconds.

But if they are so slow and unreliable it is pretty pointless.

Oh? Hexing has AOE?

That sounds quite good.

For the SP or because SPR affects effigy in some way?

Also, how come you don’t need maces anymore?

Im cleric->cleric->kirvis->kirvis (now here) and fight air enemies without a mace would be impossible. Basically all i have to fight air enemies is zaibas. How do you play that do not need a mace may i ask?

Indeed, but their bad- I mean horrible AI makes up for the movement speed buff. Fight along with your master or pick up enemies around? Nope, better target that Root Crystal outside your screen. Top priority.
Wheelchair Zombies are a hilariously expensive attribute, with each level costing 68k and increasing your chance up to 10% in total iirc.

That is a great idea, but Zombies alone are terrible. I don’t know if a Bokor zombie build is possible without C3.

Haha, yeah. Air enemies suck. But a Bokor can take them out with Hexing + Effigy. However, I prefer to avoid them since aiming Hexing is tedious.

Damage of effigy in full int even at level 16 is nothing special. With Zalciai mamp, i get hits around 2.2k-6.2k w/o krausas and 2k-5.8k with. Nice sustained damage, but not on the archer/wizard level.

#6

does anyone know how much different the damage between effigy 5 and 10? is it significant?

for whom want to create bokor zombie, dont forget that bokor have bwa kayiman that can wipe out entire mob grounds…BUT for that to be work, you have to had hight STR…the drawback is, your hex-eff are suck :smiley:
and mackangdal seems cannot protect your bwa kayiman being canceled if get hit…
