Soon to be Elementalist. Build Acceptable?

Class and Rank
#1

Hey everyone :smile:
This will be my first time playing ToS and im already excited and since days i try to collect info on everything that seems interesting to me.

I tryed to think of a build i wanna do and its really hard since there are so many skills i want but only so few skillpoints. but i guess im not the only one with that problem^^ now i finally got a build together wich kind of pleases me. Thought i dont know how practical it will be. I’m not really a PvP person so i mainly want to use it for Grinding and fighting Bosses.

Why i took what i took:

Wizard 1:

  • Energy Bolt: Looks like a Basic skill wich is good to have
  • Sleep: early CC wich seems nice
  • Earthquake: Saw a video that at the beginning its a nice AOE wich makes killing bigger groups faster

Cryomancer 1:

  • Ice Bolt: Had to pick something
  • Ice Pike: Kinda cool also didnt know what else to pick
  • Ice Wall: People love frostwall. seems good.

Psychokino 1:

  • Telekinesis: CC that does dmg. kinda nice i guess.
  • Swap: Might come in handy (also in case i ever decide to do some pvp(bet you can mess around with this alot))
  • Teleportation: Its teleportation o.o whats not to love about it?!

Elementalist 1:

  • Electrocute: Its a chain lightning wich seems really cool and strong.
  • Stone Curse: a nice CC. also AoE
  • Hail: Stationairy AoE with freezing effect. good for alot of things i guess

Elementalist 2:

  • Electrocute: See Above
  • Meteor: Its a Meteor. It drops on enemys and lays waste to everything!

Elementalist 3:

  • Electrocute: See Above
  • Meteor: See Above
  • Rain: Another Stationary AoE with nice effects (can many stationary AoE’s overlap? is the dmg on this one good?)
  • Frost Cloud: Not entirely sure how good it is. but seemed nice.

Im not sure what freezing sphere does and how it looks (yeah i know it does dmg). so i didnt pick it. if its awesome i might reconsider.

well i would be happy if some people can share their opinions about the skills i chose and if it would work how i think it would (many aoe’s in one place for example for MAX dmg on bosses).

since it CBT with a wipe, why not put all with at least 1 point for you to feel is you need the skill or not. and then finalize your build for OBT/release based on your personal tests?

#3

cooldown and castime soo long to pve, this is a good skill tree to PVP. And the bosses in tos… haha … is for a great party

#4

I would go for reflect shield or lethargy instead of energy bolt because you will use ice bolt in cyro tree.
In the psychokino branch, psychic pressure is a good skill with high damage although it cost high sp and when you use telekinesis you can’t move so you can be hit badly if lure too much creeps :grin: yeah it’s CBT so you should put at least 1 point to all dps skills to find what suit you most :wink:
Well in ele, we don’t have much information about freezing sphere or frost cloud so you should try both and give feedback on forum :grin: ppl also said that Promience is worth to pick because it’s the only skill in ele that don’t have cast time and hard to dodge in pvp too :smiley:

Your build is okay. C1 Psychokino is pretty weak though, but if you choose to stick with it, here’s what I would recommend.

Psychic Pressure Lv 5 - The SP cost will be really high, but it does pretty good damage on its own, and combos well when used on Ice Wall.

Telekinesis Lv 5 - It’s pretty weak since it’s only 3 hits, but it’s a nice displacement skill.

Swap Lv 1-5 - Each level increases the number of targets you can swap, but the range is really small, so you don’t need too many levels on it.

Teleport Lv 1-5 - The distance on this skill is bad in the lower levels, and you have to run towards the direction you want to go, or else you end up in a random location.

Everything else in your build is fine. Cryomancer is a great class to have with Electrocute.

thanks on all the answers :smiley:

i guess i dont need that high of a level in swap so maybe one point. Psychic pressure sounds interesting.
I wanted Promience too but i saw it in a video against a boss and it was just horrible. it barely ever hit huge boss. like i said i mainly go for PvE

not sure about reflect shield? at first i wanted it too but than i read that it almost doesnt help? im not sure.

all in all i dont really wanna put points everywhere. at least not in my first char. maybe i will make a second char (also want some jobs for creating items and such) and put points different there.

and lethargy? is it good o.o i saw on lvl 5 it lowers dmg by 18? is that worth putting points in?

Also should i leave Petrify and put these 5 points rather in another dmg skill?

anyway thanks for the fast replays! i will change my build a bit with the new information :smile:

Petrify doesn’t work on bosses though
And i think Lethargy worth because its attribute add 20% damage on strike-type not the terrible damage reduction

[/quote]The distance traveled will still be random too. Direction determination also doesn’t work very well with mouse control. :frowning:

ok the extra dmg from Lethargy sounds interesting and the debuff lasts a while so probably not bad.

sad to hear that about teleport <-< sounds like its more use in pvp in case another mage swaps you inside a icewall cage or something like this (well only if you dont freeze)

damn why dont we have the 27th already xD
