What do you recommend?

[cabbitdos]

I would like to know what you think is the "best build" for my type of cleric:

~I'm putting all my skill points into heal and bash, for increased damage and power and decreased cool time.
~I die easily.
~I am not a good fighter in quests, or PvP. That goes for all classes.
~I would like to have at least enough strength to wipe out monsters without dying or without help, just in case I'm in a situation where I have to solo.


So what do you guys think?

[mehe25]

25 spr/ rest str.

[globule]

Best Build does not exists.
Depending on how you like to play [your preferences] some build will be more enjoyable than others.

To find several, use the search function of the forum and search for 'build', you should have several interesting reads come up.

[akarih]

Yea, it really does depend on you.
How about 25SPR/rest END though? Will build up your def and make you die less easily.

[cabbitdos]

I kind of figured the build depends on me, and so that's why I provided a small list of things on how I play as a cleric. Regarding this list, what should I put?

[mehe25]

I told you, 25 spr/ rest str

[Nephron]

I'm leery of heavy STR builds. I personally recommend a balance of STR and END, maybe with 25 SPR tossed in as well. A hybrid is a middle-of-the-road build: not exceptionally good at anything in particular, but, with a bit of effort, effective in most situations. Hybrids aren't as powerful as full STR builds, but they're also less squishy. By the same token, they don't quite have the survivability that comes with full END, but they're also a bit more powerful.

50 END, 25 SPR, 33 DEX........that's my hybrid build >.>

Does the DEX make a noticeable difference?

50+25+33=108

Atl lvl 89 you only have 104 points so I dont know how you get those stats :P

If you want a good all round cleric that you can use to solo and party then a Hybrid build is the way to go. However I would like to say that once you hit the 6x lvls, and up, for faster levelling the party cleric is the way to go.

The advantages of added stats are:

25 SPR if you are going to do a lot of soloing because it gives you 5% critical attack and some Magic Defense.

50 END because it gives you 5% block rate, more HP and some defense.

25 DEX for an additional 5% Evade and some aim.

STR is self explanatory although you do get a bonus +1 for each +5 you add.

I personally spent a lot of time soloing on my full END cleric till she was lvl 6x and though I killed slow I could kill mobs much higher than my lvl.

im currently going for the 25spr/rest on end/str build..im pretty happy with wat i got..so i guess it might work for you too.

May I ask what level are you?
I'm currently in my 3x and still can play around with my stats a little. But I am conflicted on whether I should go 25spr/rest str, or go 25 spr, 1:1 str:end. Any tips on such a hybrid combi?

[cabbitdos]

Thanks for the good advice, everyone!

Keep 'em coming!

So right now I'm hovering over str, spr, and end... Divide them evenly and equally..
I understand that most of you might think it's ridiculous, but what do you think of it anyway?

[Bonthra]

I say, if it sounds like you'll enjoy it, do it! =D If you later feel you don't like it, save the 10 stat reset scrolls you get at level 30 (from a quest) and move some stats around.

I wish you the best of luck! And a vast sum of patience.

buff. buff plz. buff me you noob. <edited> buff me. buff buffbuffbuffbuff

I'm at lvl 49 and have STR+20 rest END. I like it because I can solo when I need to but I always try to PT when I can (need a cleric @ Epith, gimme a holler: BoneMender's the name)

Quick question for all you experienced clerics: I was thinking of changing myself at lvl50.

Was thinking to change it to SPR+25 rest END. Would that be a good idea, or not? Seeing as how I will prolly pt more after lvl 50 and up?

Goranka in later levels it is definately a lot easier to be a party cleric (END). But in saying that STR clerics can party/solo/duo. Down the track we get to do another job change and from what I have heard it will involve the two builds STR and END as to which path you will choose.

I have a full STR capped cleric and she was no harder to get lvl 89 than the full END cleric, BUT I do duo with my husband and party in guild.

[goranka]

OK! Thank you, I will def go rest END, but I'm not sure whicvh way I'll go with those "extra" 20 points I have in STR now.

Maybe I'll end up putting them into END??

Exciting times!! :D
