Okay, heres my story, my brother and i are starting a duo, i'm going to be a cleric, he's going to be a BM, what i was wondering, was the build he should take, because i'm gonna basically be 100% pure, 9 mag, 1 str or so, i was wondering how he should build, because of my insane heal compared to a hybrid, or semi-vit/mag cleric, i was looking at fist/axe build for him, but what of hitpoints? any suggestions or corrections? would love to hear what you think.

    Fist/axe is definitely one of the better bm builds, good damage, good accuracy, and with a cleric around to keep you healed (at least until you get diamond sutra), you wouldn't need a massive amount of hitpoints.

    Practically speaking tho, the earliest i think you could get the skills for multiple weapon paths is the 40s. Drain the exp from bh and/or the tideborn quests to your genie, and you'll have a good amount of leftover spirit.

    Before that, I would suggest using the fist/axe build and using the fb trial spear, or the supply stash hammers.

    If you are going to duo PvE, he won't need high HP. Any TT (which i assume you also plan to solo) up to 3-1 (excluding 2-3 Belial) can be tanked by him. So from duo PvE aspects 3/2 BM and pure arcane Cleric can pretty much do anything that doesn't require a full party.

    ...... No
    ...... Just
    ...... No

    1st use the right neck and belt (evasion lunar neck is useless, use either pdef lunar or pdef cube neck).

    2nd your using a rank belt which is magic res, however none of your other gear requires rank so your wasting coins on it, get warsong pdef or if you need the mdef for some reason get warsong mdef belt.

    3rd your boots are HH nirvana not lunar nirvana costing you the 6 piece set bonus of +3 def level at no gain.

    4th you have the LA cape (I dont know if this will effect the set bonus the arcane cape is 200 pdef)

    5th your using a level 1 ring that isnt in the game and the level 100 PQ ring, 2 lunars is significantly cheaper and just as effective.

    6th Sharding G12 pdef stones costs (15millx6 almost 90 mill per stone) whereas sharding defence levels offers greater protection at a mere 20 mill per stone for +2 def level.

    He won't be able to do 2-3 splitter boss, or 2-2 splitter boss with just one cleric.

    I'm sorry, but if I see you as a cleric with that gear on....I'll personally stalk you just to kill you the moment you turn white named b:surrender

    What boss is that? I duo all bosses in 2-2 and 2-3 (w/o Belial) with a lvl 85 Cleric. 2-3 Wurlord sometimes 1 shots me while pulling but other than that...

    I am talking about Wurlord. At our level with good gear yes, but there is no way in hell a BM is going to tank that boss at the level you need it for your armor/weapons (8x and/or early 9x in order to get your 90 gear).

    I just assumed the OP wanted to farm TT at higher levels since his pwcalc build showed 105 Cleric...besides with that much budget on his hands I'm sure he could build an incredibly OP BM to easily tank Wurlord. All he needs to know is how to avoid his mag attacks.
