Should I just Start Over or Continue on (

Class and Rank Cleric
#1

Just recently installed the game (Completely new to the game)
After playing for 2 days and reaching lvl 161. Things are getting significally slower for me to actually kill things with my auto attack. And I want to know If I royally fcked up my build. I tried to follow some of the build but since I really dont know what to do. I just spent randomly on points
(Currently I haven’t died once nor even reached the red zone I dont know if doing it right or Im just really careful)

My Current Build (Now don’t throw up in disgust.)
1 Cleric > 3 Priest >1 Paladin

120 Str>60 Con>30SPR
Cleric> 5Heal 5 Protect Zone 5 Cure
Priest>5 aspersio 15 blessing 7 sacrament and 3 revive and mass heal
Paladin 5 smite 5 turn undead 5 resistant

I want to know If I fcked up big time or just try to continue on

If i do reset: I want to know what build is perfect for me
-Mostly Solo
-Auto Attack is better? /Or cure bombing (I perfer Auto attack but if AOE is better im fine with that)
-Pure PVM not doing and PVP
-Cheap but effective

You should went SPR instead of STR for the buffs, you feel slower due to the lack of SPR.

You can continue, but I suggest you to take the buffs from the shops now, till you get your hands on a stats reset.

But if you feel it’s fast to make a new char, do that, leave the old one there for when a reset event hit clerics again or a general reset event.

auto-attack with pardoner buffs from town is always going to be faster than skills until you are well over level 200.

An important thing to do in this game is to plan out your build from start to finish, using a skill planner. It doesnt have to be perfect but it is important to at least think it out.

This is the best resource for skill planning. Priest3 is fine for any build really so you can build from there.

Hi,

Do you really want to have a Cleric? I would recommend a wiz farmer for first character. Like wiz2linker2thau3 Sage2

#5

You could look in the meta AA Cleric build. It’s a little over powered in Challenge Mode right now.
Though, it does require about 20 million silver for an attribute, so that’s a pretty expensive start.

If you want, you could use the rank down system on Paladin and get Chaplain. They’re more focused on AA than Paladin.

#6

Yeah, pretty much if you “like” AA and you went paladin then you chose “conflicting” classes.

Like @JacktheRipper said, you can rank down and get chaplain. If you truly prefer AA. I suggest playing around with paladin 1st to see if you truly don’t like it. Cast smite off cd, you might like it (might not).

If you want to pursue an AA build, get a cafrisun set. Some people say it’s an “only pre 200 content” set but I’ve used it past 300 content even in cm stage 5 (I have no CON so can’t do stage 6 and 7).

#7

I’d say reroll. Outside of particular builds, you want Cleric2 for Divine Might and the increased number of Heal tiles. Ranking down won’t fix that.

Beyond that, I agree with the other comments. If you want an AA Cleric build, Chaplain is the way to go. And don’t worry too much about rerolling; 160 isn’t a big deal. As you mentioned, you made it in just two days.

#8

Thanks for your guys feedback.

Im actually about to get a skill reset potion from the journal rewards.

So what build can I salvage with A 2Priest/1Cleric/2Paladin ?
With 120 Str and No DEX
Both AA or AOE is fine with me

(Edit: Oh wow Im 1 shotting enemies with the pardoner buff i bought guess Im sticking with buying buffs)

#9

Just off the top of my head, that base might work as a pseudo-tank (I say pseudo because ToS isn’t really designed to follow the Holy Trinity model. Outside of niche content, every build should be able to do at least some damage). It would end up looking something like this: https://tos.neet.tv/skill-planner#41122bbbgg.1a243a5561.21456595.1f27338a6575.7a688a1191

In terms of stats, you’d still want STR along with some CON (50-100 points). SPR would help too but the exact amount would depend on whether you want to focus on being a tanky support (SPR>STR) or a bulky DPS with support capabilities (STR>SPR).

#10

Thanks for the sample build. I might actually try this one before I make a new character

Before that I want to ask some question for the Build

-So having 0 for Both Blessing and Sacrament would expect me to buy buff from sellers.
-With A few points left In Priest .Is Monstrane worth it for later bosses Or is it as useless as everybody says? If thats the case should I just max out Sacrament or Blessing?

#11

The reason I left the buffs off is because they end up being pretty lackluster compared to the ones from Pardoner shops. That’s mostly due to much lower SPR investment on normal characters versus those that are just meant to collect silver for their players.

You could take one or more just in case you or someone in your party forgets to buy them or they run out in the middle of an instance. Most people have gotten into the rhythm of refreshing shop buffs before they get into anything but it certainly wouldn’t hurt to have them in a pinch.

#12

You could go with a 2H zealot.

It’s not an AA build though.

#13

If you don’t want to reroll I recommend trying out the single class reset (reset your last taken class) so you can switch Paladin1 to a Chaplain. There you can build a Cleric1 | Priest3 | Chaplain | Krivis3 | Inquisitor auto attack build.

The aforementioned build is a meta auto attack build which is relatively cheap to build and effective. It fits what you mentioned to a tee. :3

As for the 120str, I recommend that you keep it without resetting for now. Just treat it as an investment for Inquisitor skills until you are at a stage where you are min-maxing your stats and gear at end game. There should be some events in future that has a stat reset potion, ToS has such events periodically.

#14

That mostly apply to classes that don’t have healing abilities tbh. For Cleric I think you can go up to 360 no problem, but probably not good on Raid, not sure tho.

#15

Ok after taking the time to actually read some of the character builds you guy suggested. And Some other builds I now have atleast some understanding on my future build.
Raganarok PTSD Flashbacks*

For the meantime Im gonna use ‘Timeshadow’s’ Sample Build until I hit a roadblock but obviously Im gonna make a new Cleric
(farming silver ATM)
(What you need a token to transfer silver Ughhhh)

Beforehand I actually want to know if Healbombing (INT Builds is more effective that ‘AA’ AOE (STR) or atleast a build more straightforward for a new player without much funds

#16

Well, considering that the Heal: Enhance Damage attribute is pretty cheap ( Since it’s a Rank 1 skill ), it’s pretty good. But you need to be atleast Cleric 2 for good potential, Level 5 isn’t going to cut it. And that you need to have Blessing up, so your heals will deal x2 damage.

But then again, you’ll have a hard time hitting flying mobs because heal doesn’t hit them. And that you’ll have a hard time killing R8-R9 mobs because of their Health Spike.

Anyways, back to topic, I’d actually go with the new C1-Priest3-Chaplain-Krivis3-Inquisitor build. TBH, it’s already fine without the Inqui Burn attribute. You’ll only need this attribute if you’re really packing up huge waves of mobs or if you’re rich. Other than that, it’s a REALLY CHEAP build. But you need to prepare a lot of catalysts for Last Rites, and Aspergillum ( because you’ll buy Sacrament and Blessing from Pardoner Shops anyway ).

#17

I’ll keep this in mind
Can you share what Stat points for this build

#18

Honestly, pardoner buffs will carry you up to 300 (not kidding) so AA builds that don’t rely on cd’s are more reliable going up.

Heal bombing, aside from the flying issue, is also cd based so you are going to do a lot of waiting. Do note heal hits 2x per tile if you have blessing on you (can activate with pardoner buffs).

Try out the cafrisun set if you dont have it yet (even if you are going to experiment with the inqui).
