Monk Inquisitor or paladin, help build please

Hi all is my first time in cleric tree so i would like to ask help for make a build.

1st question: is monk viable with inquisitor? the ranks in monk provide me good damage to sustain inquisitor or is monk useless for the high inquisitor skill dmg?

also for first 3 ranks don’t know if pick cleric 3 or cleric 2 and krivis 1.

what do you suggest to me? thx.

if monk is not ok i’m thinking about pick pala instead.

Monk is good. Inquisitor does have high damage skills but the cooldowns aren’t low enough to render Monk useless. Just don’t go all the way to Monk C3. Monk C2 is reasonable, but not necessary

From your words seem like a paladin will be more usefull overall in build.

i think that element defence and Hp rec can be good than some dmg not necessary :slight_smile:

and bout cleric 3 or cleric 2 and krivis c1?

cleric c3 add some to divine might, safety zone and fade.

while krivis give Daino, Zalciai and Akuras.

most worth skill is Daino, since is buff and don’t scale with stat zalciai for be effective need SPR. i’m going to use SPR as tanky/dps/support inquisitor?

Also akuras can have good sinergy with paladin restoration?

let me know :slight_smile:
also don’t know about stats, some CONS and full dex?

I’m not saying that. All I’m saying is that the best thing you can get from Monk is at C1. From thereon you have the option to choose other paths before taking Inquisitor. You can take Oracle 1 > Kabbalist 1, Monk 2 > Plague Doctor 1, or Druid 2, which are all better than going full Monk 3.

Don’t take Krivis 1 on this build. You can just use Pardoner scrolls for their skills.

Cleric 3 is alright, but you should also consider Cleric 2 Priest 1

Yes. Your playstyle, how much funds you’ll have, and your path before Inquisitor will determine how much CON you’ll need. Generally, people get around 30-80 invested CON. I believe some people can handle 0


You should also check this reddit post. Ultimately, you won’t get a clear cut answer from the community on which one’s the best build because a lot of people are going to want to defend and justify the choices they’ve made on their own characters. So you’ll just have to find which one suits you best.

have made 2 different build.


more defensive & party utility. based on elemental damage.


more lead to dps use sinergy with double punch and god finger and take oracle for increase STA for better spam of 0 CD monk skill.

i would like to ask if paladin and inquisitor skill have elemental damage.

and also if the damage bonus from priest 1 diev 1 monk 2 is significant for a inquisitor dps build.

if you can also chek skill allocation if is all right… is my first time on a cleric

up, anyone can give me advice on those 2 build?

is paladin and inquisitor skill elemental damage? convinction help me build better dmg?

monk for slash bonus dmg is worth? or in situation like AoE using wheel is not needed?

is the damage on single target provided by monk relevant?

is any better setup for dpsing monk-inqui? are the ranks and skill pont ok?

thx everyone.

I will give u my experience on my build c2>priest1>pala3>plague doc. I am doing full dex > con. I Gave up on rank 7 when i decided that this is not my play style.

you need alot of patience when u are about level200. i pnly have 2 skills conviction and smite. They do not have high dmg. Once was doing a quest that requires to clear the area to open chest, its impossible. By the time i clear, more mobs respawned. Blessing and scarement dont help at all at level 200.

i do not see any worth doing paladin. Barrier can be bought from pardoners.

Not sure what u are expecting on your build though.

Well… Skill distribution is pretty bad. Are you building for PvP or just pure PvE?

Not really. The only elemental damage both builds have are Heal, Cure, and Energy Blast which are all holy. But that’s not how you take advantage of Conviction. You take advantage of Conviction by getting all Fire, Ice, Earth, Poison and Lightning property attack. You could easily do this with headgears but I’ll include this anyway.

For each all of those elements (doesn’t need to have high value), the Conviction debuff will add 100 (or 120 with Divine Might) of each of those element to attacks they receive.

Monk doesn’t have a Slash bonus damage

Yes

I personally enjoy the Monk1-Druid2-Inquisitor build. The class path that you did is okay, but the skill points distribution is not okay

pure PvE.

thx is has been usefull and appriciated.

sry confused with strike bonus. >.>

Thx again, what about strike bonus on AoE? it work or is only for single target?

thx Sir this has been usefull. i was plan to going paladin c3 for more resistence and be some kind of off tank dps. the bonus to magic/element is nice.

at this point have to decide if go full dps with monk or split for some utility in party.

for the monk build can you suggest me what points are wrong? i still don’t know if more intrested in monk or paladin.

for field farm (open world map) and ET wich one may be better?

If u are getting orcale for the stake of more stamina. It can be solved by stamina pot. Instead u can get diev2 for silence which can help your party more

thx but is stamina pot easy to have?

i got some at start of game and never seen it again.

btw yes, oracle was exacly for the buff.

also intrested on some field farm like manahas and oracle is usefull. :smiley:

Cleric:

  • Always max your Heal

Diev

  • Carve Attack is actually pretty good for fighting Leather armoured targets
  • Leave Vakarine at Lv.1

Monk

  • You’ll want Lv.1 Hand Knife for the armour break
  • Maxed Energy Blast for your AoE
  • Iron Skin also has its uses if you want to block some attacks but it’s okay to skip

Oracle

  • You can just use stamina pills for Stamina. No need to max that skill
  • Counterspell is the best thing from Oracle. You should definitely max it. When a player enters Counterspell, they take up 1 “target”. When they leave, the is wasted. When they re-enter, they take up another count of the “target”. Maxing it might be good so it doesn’t randomly end before the duration

Inquisitor

  • I personally prefer God Smash over Malleus

If field farm is a factor then definitely Monk

Thanks alot.

going to skip iron b/c will go for high dex, (so should be 80% EVA a part for super accuracy archers) and also plate armor + aspersion should be ok.

tell me if is better now:

and if have any suggestion :slight_smile:
also with this build what is the recommended CON? all the rest i will put in dex.

oh and about:

is more worth 900 dmg more on God Smash, than another skill?

Looks good except for Monstrance. You should still take it at level 1 (and not higher)

Don’t bother with Lv.5 asperion. Just get Lv.17 from Pardoners

Oke, thx.

about the CONS ? :smiley: not wan’t to be tank, not even squishy.

Just go by feel. Personally, I have 39 CON on my Inquisitor. It’s also going to depend a lot on your gears

You might want to look into this build though if u cant decide to go pala or monk.

Cleric c2> priest 1 > paladin 3 > monk 1 > inq

You can be a dps and support at the same time

don’t lose to much compared to monk c2 and oracle c1?

for this i keep divided the two builds.

how they work together?
