My Thaum Build<3

Hello everyone this will be my support Thaum build focusing on trying to be a tanky support mage as once i get Thaum i can focus on CON with Transpose + its attribute i will always gain some int from it

is the build i want to try this CBT so i am sure i will need a party to level with but with the buffs hopefully it will be helpful to everyone so parties wont be too hard to come by

Please let me know what you guys think

Honestly if you don’t plan on going Cryomancer 3 I hardly recommending being a Cryo 2. You’ve an interesting build nonetheless, but I think that considering you’re planning on being a Thauma, and thus focusing mostly on supporting and having little to none offensive skills, becoming a Linker on Rank 3 would maybe be more interesting for you than a Cryo 2.

With Joint Penalty’s low cooldown, you’d never have to worry about killing one enemy at a time.

If you’re ever thinking about PvP, I would get Earthquake instead of Energy Bolt because of the disrupt and you’re basically replacing Energy Bolt with Ice Bolt and Ice Pike AFAIK but that’s just my opinion since I’m not really into Energy Bolt without Linker and even then I think Earthquake (not sure if it still breaks the links or not) would be better.

Truthfully, I’m not so sure about Transpose as a skill unless you go Full CON or Full INT because with the attribute if I’m understanding it correctly, makes it so the average of your 2 stats will become the new stat when you’re buffed with Transpose.

I also think that you might have trouble overall with the DPS since you’d be relying on 2-4 skills but seeing as you’re trying to go for Tank/Support Wiz, that’s a great build because of CC Freeze of Cryomancer and the buffs are straight damage and defense.

My only gripe with your choice of Thaumaturge skills is Swell Body and Shrink Body. I think that you should switch the two skill points around since Swell Body just seems to make the enemy harder but gives more rewards so it sounds like a buff for the mob you’re “Debuffing”. Transpose also could use some love with more Skill points but that’s just my take on it.

note: I should write smaller posts because the Forum server keeps getting overloaded. :cry:

I’m surprised you didn’t get Swell Brain. The INT bonus is pretty nice.

@Garrnett Swell body also gives double exp/drop rate its for mostly blue named boss^^

With the attribute point into Transpose you get the benefit of it without losing INT or CON so if i go full INT then switch to CON both stats will get a bonus while it is active so if i have 125 INT and 50 CON i would gain the average of INT and CON so i would gain about 80 to each stat instead of losing all my int. i was thinking about Swell Brain

@Kiyoshiro but since your magic attack scales more with weapons from what i heard and the INT/STR/DEX scaling more as you level up i think 10%? i am okay not getting it as any other wizard besides myself would almost be full INT but i can drop 5 from Swell Body and put the remaining 5 into Swell Mind =D

@Dastev interesting i didnt think of that, i will play around and give that a try/thoought thank you for your feed back!

Tell me if I’m wrong, but Transpose mechanic was changed and the data in ToS Base is outdated. I don’t know for certain what it does now, though.

What you need to know is that the three friendly Swell Skills (Swell Left Arm, Right Arm, and Brain) are AoE skills that affect you and nearby party members. Just one cast is enough to buff your party in one go, provided that your party flocked to you when you cast those skills.

Oh, and some skills scale really well with stats, INT is no exception. So yeah, you should get Swell Brain.

Yeah i played around and i have a new build that uses Swell Brain and Linker like Dae suggested, i know the Swell skills are AoE^^ and hopefully the transpose mechanic is not too bad, as the skill tool tip was updated on ToS Base recently it was in pure korean earlier

http://www.tosbase.com/tools/skill-simulator/build/8be2501yj9/ is the new build

I think for wizard c1 should go like this

Energy Bolt - lv 1 for damage in early game
Lethargy - lv 3 that you can get Lethargy: Enhance
Sleep - lv 5 for cc
Reflect Shield - lv 5 for reduce damage taken from shooting damage with Reflect Shield: Reflect Damage
Earthquake - lv 1 for damage in early game and cc
