Question about PVE build

Hello! b:bye I made a cleric, and I'm enjoying it.

My plan is basically to be a slave to my barbarian husband, so I plan to be pure arcane upon hitting 90. (Doing vit/arcane at the moment.)

I just wanted to check I was getting it right.

Ignoring PVP entirely, what is the best way to build my cleric by 90, for best heals, buffs etc. At the moment I've only trained 3 attack spells just so I can level and I don't plan on any more save tempest and sleep.

And about my HH90 armor, how much of it should be garnets and how much citrenes. Entirely based on PVE.


Thanks so much in advanced. I tried to use search but it keeps erroring and shutting down mozilla.

    welcome to PW international here we say TT90

    for entirely PVE go full mag.

    Depending on the mobs you grind on,
    -if you think you will grind on magic mobs more, go citrine shards.
    -If normal mobs, go mix of citrine and garnet shards.
    -If you have charm and dont care what you kill pve, go pdef garnet shards.

    Lmao good point. TT, woman, remember TT. And yes I plan to try that aoe grind at 7x on the mag mobs. Sounds like mega fun. So just citrenes? I can do that!

    Thank you, Deceptistar!

    wat dep said

    u may want to have some vit stat before 90s so u can meet tt requiremnts for drum and soul and then reset (otherwise it may be bit too expensive to ref/shard so much at 60/70lvls)

    rest full mag (and highest base stat u can get) since u may end up as main DD if u gonna duo with ur hub often

    but u know that already prolly


    and for 90s and pve.. u still dont need epic p.def - u have p-shell

    Ah many thanks! and yes i've been vit/arcane for now, figuring it'd give me that extra pack of survival.

    thank you too, Paramedic, for your help. :D

    ~50ish vit is all you ever need, even that is too much if you look after your gear.

    Thanks! But I have one more question. If I shared my TT90 with all immaculate citrenes and capped my vit at 50. How much HP should I expect at level 90? Unbuffed, buffed?

    Depends what you're going to be doing. For most TT90, cleric HP isnt really a huge factor- unless ur the type who find they somehow get agro alot! b:chuckle

    TT2-3 last boss (ancient evil) is probably the only one where you'd need some reasonable HP/phys so that might be difficult if you go pure. Though it is still possible with pots and plume shell, probably something around 5.2HP and 4k phys (+BM/WB buffs) should be enough to avoid getting 1 shot by the worst of its aoe.

    If you're not doing that boss or pvping at all I dont think there's that much else to be too worried about. Extra HP might be useful when you're aoe grinding on poison spiders tho! =D

    No panic then! I tried to make 2 reasonable builds in PWI calculator and I think both are over 5k hp buffed. Not uber sure on p.def though.

    Thank youuuu! :)

    ahh just to clarify the 5.2k HP was unbuffed so with HP buff it would be ~6.8kish.

    Maybe someone can confirm 5.2k HP 4K phys is minimum to never get 1 shot. I'm kinda going from memory of what I worked out like a year ago. 0_X

    You must be kidding me? 5.2k HP unbuffed for 2-3?
    Last time i check you need ~4.3kHP if you only look after HP.
    And much less with good p.def, and good timing on def charms also reduces the amount of HP needed.

    5.2kHP unbuffed w/o 90 armor is just wrong...

    If you plan on being completely PvE and as you say a slave (wish I had one) the typical and best build would be Arcane with HP shards and channelling build. I don’t know if you cashshop or money making skills so here’s a typical mid build id suggest:

    http://pwcalc.ru/pwi/?char=eb2baaed1683157f

    -The top is rank 4, 5000 Rep; I use it all the time in PvE even at Lv 100.

    -Rings are a staple but I would switch them for channel builds if possible.

    -Ive put the taurin cape as default because I can’t build a drop cape, but anything with HP X2 stats can be switched out for this.

    -Also the fish sword I know allot of people, including myself diss it for being, well ****, but it’s probably the best PvE magic weapon at 90. then channel -6% is a big boost and most cleric healing skills work of the principle of base magic attack, and this weapon has the highest lowest end magic attack.

    It was supposed to be with TT90 armor and the HP would be dependent on phys defence. Gosh i was sure it was something over 5K HP (for ~4k phys) to survive being 1 shot by highest possible aoe. I probably forgotten! =______=

    lol of course you can do it with much less HP using charms/pots/shell etc- we've all run belial with 4.xk HP at some point! b:chuckle
