Paladin build need help for last ranks

Hello !

I would like to create a physical dps, capable of support in group, and centered around Paladin3 and Kabba1.
So, I was thinking of Cleric2/Diev1/Paladin3/Kabba1/? and then, I hesitate between Inquisitor and Zealot.
Diev1 instead of Priest1 add the statues for support and a physical attack for leveling.
But what about Inquisitor and Zealot ? I know a little Inq, because I have the AA build (Krivis/Chap/Inq), but its seems Zealot is mostly use with Krivis to extend buffs durations ? I really don’t know much those 2 classes:/
I also intend to invest mostly STR, is it ok or do you really need some DEX ?

Thanks for your help !

zealot2 is nice for pure str, but normally ppl go krivis and fits better with monks, you can go inqui1 zea1, inqui2 (pvp), zea2 or inqui1 X too as pala and still do good.

Skill Inquisitor build is normaly Cleric C2.
You can put Cleric C3/Diev C1/Priest C1 in it.

Paladin C3 .

Then you have the next filler you can use Pd C1/ Kaba C1/ Oracle C1/Priest C2 /Diev C2.

IT depends on playstyle but i would not go for Inq C2 i think Zea C1 helps you more.

So, you think the damage from Paladin3 and Inq1 full STR would be enough to level up in solo and bring some damage in group ?
I was thinking of something like : Cleric2/Diev1/Paladin3/Kabba1/Inq1/Oracle1, with the damage from Paladin and Inq, and the support from Diev, Paladin, Kabba and Oracle (most of them being cast and forget, which allows me then to contribute to damage), what do you think of it ?

Everything can level up with autoattacks only until around level 280+. That’s not a problem.

This depends on your investment in skill enhancement attributes and gear (especially weapon transcendence and upgrades).

Why not? I’d not play it like this but you can play with whatever looks useful/fun to you.

I can’t really give advice here because I don’t know anything about you, your playing habits,your time investment, your character investment, your goals/ambitions and your personal preferences.

Everything works depending on your previous investment and goals. Not every build can fulfill every role and reach every goal set for you,you’ll have to test out and use your own perception to see if it’s viable for what you want to achieve/expect it to achieve…

Conviction+Godsmash on wheel do good aoe Dmg.
Best with the burn attribute.
With ab bit investment you can deal cap dmg on a good aoe with wheel.

But without wheel your dmg isnt that good.

I was farming huntinggroud with this build (before R9 without demoliton) it works but sometimes you need to stall time and for groupplay the build is good ^^.
But get some Con :stuck_out_tongue:

But the best damage is on Demons/mutants only…

Thanks for your answer !

I like to play on my own, especially when I can’t find a group, but I also like to support when I’m in a group, that’s why I thought about this build to combine both !

Do you think the support from Diev, Paladin, Kabba and Oracle is good ? I’m thinking of it mostly for CM, maybe ET/others instances if I do them one day.

Cleric 2 > Priest 1 > Paladin 3 > Priest 2 / Monk / Kabba > Zealot 2

It’s okay to not have krivis 3 on your zealot. Of course having it is a different story as a pure DPS, but since you like to be capable of supporting with paladin that’s a nice build I could think of.

I have the build but I took monk 1 instead. Would change to priest 2 whenever.

Do you take Priest only for the rez ? I was thinking to Diev for the statue (and the CD and SP reduction may help the Zealot too) I suppose Priest2 is for Rez, Revive and Mass Heal, but will Mass Heal be useful with a STR build ? I love both Revive and the statue (especially the warp one), that’s hard to choose :slight_smile:

Yeah, priest 1 for res and monstrance (good for monk/paladin aspd based skills)

Priest 2 for revive and mass heal. It’s still useful with a str build since there’s a fixed % scaling aside from stat scaling.

Ah, yes, I forgot Monstrance !
Can Restoration enhance the heal from Mass Heal ? I know it works with the Cleric’s Heal, but I don’t know for the Priest one…
So you would really recommend Priest2 instead of Diev1/Kabba1 ?

this is hard to answer because it relies on what you’re doing or supporting.

Kabba can be useful to place on your tank or restore your own SP (probably your main use)
Diev1 is better than priest 2 if you know your team mates don’t need revive at all (tank/not dying/a lot of cc) since diev 1 has 20% cd reduction statue.

But overall priest 2 is the most safe pick, you can never go wrong with it. Just that dps drops a little without the statue.

I have a Priest3, and if I use Revive (doesn’t proc that often, at least for me) and Mass Heal a lot, mainly because I have only Cleric1, I only used Resurrection once, in a CM. So, I can clearly see it usefulness, I was just hoping that another support can be useful too :confused:
Oh, maybe that can help : I never done raid, nor ET for now, I mainly supported in CM, that’s why I was thinking to the statues, as the group don’t move, so you can just renew them off cooldown and forget them.
I would love to pick both Diev1 and Priest2, but that means giving up Zealot, I’m not sure it’ll be a good trade… Maybe with Inq1instead of Zealot in this case ?

Could work, though I like zealot better. Inquisitor is becoming too much of a meme now with that solo farming build.

Anyway, priest 2 is useful for any content that can potentially kill you. This includes raid, raid is easy but can one shot you, revive saves you from that.

I have priest2/3+diev3 friends with miko, no one ever dies or reach a critical point in their HP but you can’t fit paladin as a physical dps all too well in that.

Do you think Zealot1 can work then or does it really shines with circle2 ? With all the SP consumption of this class, that’s also why I was thinking to Diev and Kabba, to support me and my group :slight_smile:
I already have the meme build (that I use as support in group and not for solo xD), so if I can get another class, that’s good for me !

I feel that zealot 1 is really lacking, you could do it if you want to but I’d rather pick a different class if it were me.

I see !
Thanks for all the information, I will probably go for 2 builds :

  • Cleric2/Diev1/Paladin3/Kabba1/Zealot2, dps oriented with a bit of support (full STR or STR/SPR, I don’t think DEX is useful on Zealot)
  • Cleric2/Priest2/Paladin3/I don’t know what yet, really support oriented this time

By the way, for SP problems (I’ve said this on many other threads so you might have seen it)

Use Rikaus cards for purple and Rafene cards for green. 3x10* Rafene cards (+10 All stats) are best for zealot since every stat you get will be useful.

Yeah, I heard a lot about the SP problems of Zealot, that’s one of the reason I was thinking to go Kabbalist !
But I haven’t really look at the cards for now, thanks for the hint :slight_smile:
