Hey guys, i realize this is not the even close to being an endgame build. But this is my going to be my build once i reach 100. What do you recommend i go after next? I am going sage for sure. I plan on getting Warsoul of Earth, a lunar cape, and also refining everything eventually. Now i guess the main question is what should i go for first? And also what do you recommend at a sage sin? Nirvana Barrier thorns for the -.1 int? or any other recommendations? dont use pw calc to show me please, i have to check from my phone, so all advice please type out for me. TY
my build is http://pwcalc.com/e32d1024131fdac3

i dont have much experience with sage as i am demon but i can try and help, high int weapons would be best so going for a pangu and barrier thorns would be beneficial so you can windshield up to 5 aps[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -
In order of priority:
Warsoul of Earth
Shadow Ashura Greaves
Refines to +5-6
Barrier Thorn: Nirvana
Sign of Frost: Chaos
Refines to +7-8
Ancestral Divine Hat
Pan Gu, Creator
Refines to +9-10
Energetic Robe: Lunar Glade
Personally I'm looking like this right now. My refines aren't up to par just because there hasn't been any good refine sales recently.
Ancestral Divine Hat and Energetic Robe: Lunar Glade have rather low priority in upgrading mostly because their greatest value is in higher refines, which is something you'll be something rather late. Pan Gu, Creator on the other hand costs a lot and 3.33 APS is plenty.I am Olba. Not Ol, not Baze nor Blaze. And even less would I go by Olblaze. Please, take a second to read a person's username.
If you see b:cute be sure to take a second, calm look at anything I said.0 -
Lunar cape should be one of your last goals as the TM cape should do just fine. I would suggest just socketing the thing with the socket stones you get from your BH 100 when you get to it and shard an extra 2 citrines.
and while typing this I realize oblaze had my whole item progression idea written down already..... you know what just read what he wrote.0 -

Only reason to go Demon with a sin: more APS early on.
I went Demon and I really regret it. I'd respec to Sage if I hadn't been stupid and invested in several Demon skills already.Demon_Troll: "takes on the appearance of an innocent archer but turns into a mindless idiot once you hear him speak"

Also gear versatility (because your gear gives you aps so you don't need to focus your gear around just that), better endgame weapons, more dps, more dph, longer stuns...Seven 100+ characters leveled the hard way. Free to play. Mystic, Psychic, and Wizard left to level. b:victory0 -

You say that like Sages have to get to 4.0 base or they're ****. And that they somehow cannot use Rank 9.
Funny thing is, I've seen a 2.86 R9 Sage do things I've never seen anyone else do. Similarly, the notoriously famous instance of Assassin herb farming was done with 3.33 sparked APS.
Arguing DPS and DPH is kinda redundant since any Assassin still has more DPS than the any similar BM.
The stuns/sleep/interrupt are only really applicable if you plan to PvP.I am Olba. Not Ol, not Baze nor Blaze. And even less would I go by Olblaze. Please, take a second to read a person's username.

Pretty sure the same things the 2.86 R9 +12s sages on our server the 4.0 R9 +12 demon's can do.
Not to mention the herb farming video is of a demon sin. Because he's R9 3.33 demon he out DD's any sage, and as I said above, the reason he dropped to 3.33 is because he changed his ornies to a G16 cube neck to kill harpy because the demon spark allows gear versatility while maintaining high aps and perma spark.
I agree, it becomes a bit of moot point when we are talking the difference between 150k sage dps and 3% paint vs 215k demon dps and 2% paint because both are still really high damage outputs and bloodpaint heal rates.
As I said before, I went demon because I liked demon skills better and I believe survivability stops being a real issue in any instance around +8 - +10. I've gotten **** for saying this before but sage paint is only worth something when demon paint isn't already keeping your hp completely full. In otherwords if I'm taking 5k damage a second and I'm healing 9k damage on demon paint it doesn't really matter which I use, right? Same thing with sage spark. So for me, looking at super endgame, defensively I'm fine with either culti. Offensively, I'm also fine with either culti, just demon has more growth.

I thought you could only permaspark at 4.0+0 -

you can almost perma-spark at 4 if you use inner harmony
with 1 use of RDS you can almost perma-spark at 3.33 and with 2xRDS you can almost permaspark at 2.89you only purge once #yopo0 -

3.33 R9 +12 Demon: 232,204 dps
4.0 G15 +12 Sage: 232,330 dps
I deliberately lowered the quantity of DoTs until the DPS numbers were identical. Harpy Wraith is actually one of the cases where Sage Wolf Emblem shows its superiority. Also, the Sage gets the freedom to shard DoTs simply because they get higher effective life due to their spark. Of course, the Sage does have notably lower defenses. But then again I could've just given the sage three piece of recast R8 and skipped the ornaments.
And besides, my point wasn't even that. Soloing Harpy Wraith can and should be considered the greatest soloing achievement in the game, considering the difficulty. The fact that cheze is deliberately lowering his APS in favor of defense levels is pretty the best proof as to the argument about APS leading to Demon being superior being moot. Also notably I've heard 2.86 R9 +12 Sages doing teh same thing.I am Olba. Not Ol, not Baze nor Blaze. And even less would I go by Olblaze. Please, take a second to read a person's username.
