Class and Rank Wizard
#1

I want to mainly be a taoist in ReBuild , here is what i thought of :
1 - Psychokino
2 - Taoist
3 - sage
4 - Featherfoot

1 for Packing and some dps
2 for Main dps skills
3 for good aoes , and convenience skills , even survivability skills
4 for healing

With that i hope to be able to be in the melee, pack the mobs aoeing everything , then heal myself when i need it
Plz tell me if you think of faults or a better build , explain in the same fashion i did plz :), easier for me ^^

First of all, you build has 5 ranks, the max in rebuild is 4 (1 base class + 3 classes of your choice)

Taoist is best paired with AoE elemental dps classes, for 2 main reasons:

  1. AoE dps is not the main purpose of Taoist.
  2. Tri-disaster charm boosts Ice, lightning and fire damage by up to +80%.

So it’s best paired with Pyro, Cryo, Elementalist, and to a lesser extent, Onmyoji too. That’s not to say it would be bad with other classes, since Taoist is pretty strong to carry any build.

Here’s an example of a build: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jXjwMhYtPE

  1. Taoist boosts his Pyromancer and Elementalist damage (Tri-disaster charm, Upper level)
  2. Pyro and Elementalist give him all the AoE dps he needs
  3. Elementalist has good synergy with Pyro (fireball->storm dust combo, Elemental essence)
  4. Taoist gives all the single-target damage he needs, since both Pyro and Ele are not very good at bossing.

I also recommend reading this post, it has all the taoist changes in detail: http://kiyoshiro-ritsu.tumblr.com/post/181184049419/rebuild-taoist-overview-and-first-impressions

And of course, play around with the build simulator: https://tos.guru/ktest/simulator

isnt it 4 class of our choice , i thought the base classe WAS amongst the 4 class offered as choices for r1
Cauz on the dev blog , the picture talking about class show 4 column of choices possibles

Nope, its 1 base class + 3 of your choice. The base class is obligatory.

And you are making a big mistake, all classes (besides hidden ones like Runecaster) are available at any rank.

ok thanks for the advices and clarifications :slight_smile:

I will go for Pyro Cryo Taoist. I think Pyro is a good class combined with Taoist as Pyro has Fire Pillar which is good to make enemies stay at the same place.
