Hello, I’m just starting the game and I’m making a cler2 deiv1 pal3 X inq. I’m unsure about what to pick on the 7th rank. I would like to know if with the magic attack that two handed blunt weapons provide, could be viable to take PD and do some (not optimal but noticeable) damage with incineration and conviction debuff?
Thank you in advance!
Incineration would be a poor option compared to Monk C1, which would give you a spammable damage filler in Double Punch, Bleeding with Palm Strike, and Armor Break from Hand Knife.
With Paladin3/Inquis your damage will be very ‘bursty’, so having Double Punch to fill the gaps will maximize your DPS.
Thank you very much for your response.
I played monk and didn’t really like the way double punch works.
My train of thought behind PD was to have some more support abilities with healing factor and the debuff inmunity one. Secondly, knowing that a 2 handed exclusive skill is on the way, thought incineration could also benefit from the increased magic attack 2 handers provide. I do know i wont see huge numbers but i do wanna know if it could work with decent o at least relevant numbers.
To clarify, my objective is not to maximize but to balance. I do appreciate any more feedback or thought on the matter.
It would be relevant, mace magic attack is still good. Overall PD1 is a really good class since it offers a good balance of offense and defense.
Connecting with incineration would be easy since you are going to have malleus 5 anyways.
Also Pandemic spreads conviction debuff so your other skills like God Smash will deal more damage in an aoe.
During the reset event a few months back I tried out PD, Monk, Kabbalist and Priest C2, each of those had their strengths. Personally I went with Monk but that’s not because it was a clear choice over the others, just what I preferred.
