Leveling + Endgame Build
Flauros - Lost City
Posts: 15 Arc User
So I'm a cleric and I just hit level 30. My current skill apportionment has been
9 mag
1 str
every 2 levels. Is this a good way to go while leveling? Should I continue to do this?
I usually level with a partner, who is a barb.
When I get to endgame, like 60 ish +, will I need to put more points into vit or can I get away with gemming all my gear with hp shards? I noticed I'm a wee bit squishy while soloing
edit: I'm aiming to be a heal/support cleric.

In my opinion you are fine with the build you are doing but if you goal is to be a support/clreric i will recomend to add more attributes to your Vit, and lvl up your buffs and heals as soon as you can. But if your prefer to continue with that build is up to you, 9 mag 1 str, applies more often to full attack clerics and soloing, in case you want to be a full attack cleric i recomend you to READ a lot in the forums and find information about it, before posting more about that build, reason why is becase this has been talked earlier and over and over and over a lot, so it just depends in how you play and how you want to build your character.0

Flauros... thats a pure magic build. Means a lot of mana regeneration, a lot of mana, a lot damage.
Drawnbacks? At higher lvls, maybe when starting HH (twiligh temple) or if you dont pay much attention, not putting points into Vit will be a problem because you will die easily. Many bosses have AoE (area of effect) attacks and you can sometimes even get one shoot if dont have many HP Shard and equip. Besides HP buff from barb increases HP according to your base HP.0 -
Since your on Lost City, your gonna need a minimum of 50 vit. But more closely to 60 or 70. Since your support, aim for 80 or 90. That is, unless of course you like to die in one shot to an archer's crit.0

seeing as your aiming to be support phys def shards and as for stats 6mg 1str 3vit per 2 level untill u have 60 vit then 8mg 1 str an 1 vit
my build i have only 25 vit at lvl 70 and i will be restating to 3 vit at 80 since i can + my armors an use hp shards
personally attack clerics are best since our greater mag attack means greater ironheart heal potential but that is just personal preference0 -
Hi! How I am building my full support cleric is basically this..
vit = my level (I'm level 75, so I have 75 vit)
str = for weps/arcane armor
mag = all the rest
For armor as you level higher, go for those that add mag, hp, and -channeling%.
Also, just add hp shards in your armor. Phys def isn't worth it. Trust me. I've tried the phys def shard route. Isn't awesome. HP helps A TON more. In your HH60 weapon put a magic attack shard. It gives a nice boost to your attack.
If you need to kill a melee physical mob, use the hit and run method, or use plume shell. I used the hit and run method earlier in leveling, and now (since my plume shell is level 10) I just use plume shell to keep myself very well protected.
I do a lot of HH's and fb's, and this build has worked well for me. I wouldn't really suggest adding shards until 60s or 70s. I'm using average shards now.
If you have any questions or just want to tell me I'm a moron, feel free to PM me in game.

um... i think its better if u did 3 mag then 2 on any other skill or 4 on mag and the other spend on anything. but the way ur going i strongly agree that u stay away from pvp. um... u shud really get higher hp and dexterity cuz then u can survive longer and hav a chance at criticals. but im lvl 38 cleric i recommend u lvl ur mag more 2 cuz the mage weps u get at my lvl u req a high mag lvl. thats all i got 2 say0 -

thats wat i do....kinda... only lvl str when the armor is req'd rite? idk about the rest tho lol i mean evry lvl i use 2 go up 4 mag lvls... im currently 100 mag plus the boost from a few items. the last point i use on either hp or dex 4 longer battles and crits. is that good?b:victory0 -
Hmm, I have put 3 points to DEX and I am allready regretting it.. And so I should, shouldnt I?
3 pts wasted that could of been put to MAG, VIT or STR..
Im not going for light armors, but to mostly FAC..
Duh.0 -
Lv60 Endgame? b:shocked0

I wouldn't worry about the 3 points to dex.. I took mine up to 20 for the crit increase and then left it there.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0

I wouldn't put anything in dex, personally. Crit really isn't meant for robed classes. Some will argue with me on that, but I believe having a more steady magic attack is better than going up 1% crit for every 10 dex points you put.0 -

Must be playing vanilla WoW.
On a more serious note, vit does come in handy, just don't put too much into it. I started with a 8 Mag 1 Str 1 Vit per 2 levels up to 50 and then switched to 9 Vit 1 Str per 2 levels first to make leveling not too slow at the lower levels and now to get my health up in preparation for the aoes in TT.
Best course of action is to observe your character and see what you're lacking (low damage? getting hit too hard? etc.) and stat accordingly as you notice issues.0 -
Well for End-game gear... You should consider Mag stat to be your best bet.
At max lvl.... or End-game. You should be level 105...
Put 45 Stats in Str period. Because your lv 100 weapon (Nature Taker, pretty much the best rank Magical weapon requires only 50 Str)
Have around 100ish Base Vit or something... Maybe less because you need more Mag so you can 1 shot more people and you probably already have enough Vit from +12 all your gear and socketing them with G12 HP gems. Or you can put some stats into Vit and put G12 Pdef gems in your armor.. but it's pretty much your choice of more hp or more pdef.
Dump the rest on Mag, to be able to 1 hit ko people. You might even consider getting the legendary Warsoul weapons. But that requires an entire squad of 200 people to farm for you 24/7 for about 6 months. But it's worth it as it has +50 Attack level, increasing the amount of damage you do to other players by 50%, along with the highest Damaging sword in the entire game to rip a hole through the space continuum and cause massive ownage in the server.
Basically use G12 shards on all your 4 socketed armor and 2 socketed weapon. +12 everything all end-game (Except Nature Taker because you will replace it with the Warsoul weapon later on.. so only +7 or +8 it because +12 is a waste of money). You should have around 7k or maybe 10k HP with all +12 armor socketed with +HP/+Pdef gems all G12. Your weapon... Nature Taker should also be socketed with 2 G12 Sapphire Gems and +7/8 to add even more power. When you get the Warsoul Magic weapon, then you can probably NPC your Nature Taker because you can't trade the rank equip and lose about 100 billion coins. Then 2 socket G12 Sapphire gem your Warsoul weapon and +12 it. So your Plume Shot will be able to 1 shot most lv 105 Barbarians with 10k hp and 5k pdef.
Your stats should be around 10k hp unbuffed and 7k pdef unbuffed.
You should max all skills because you have too much spirit and money from many years farming in this game.Position: Professional Forum Troll

Zephyrx, nice post to back up your sig b:chuckle, I like it. Only one thing though, there's actually some useful information about point distribution in your post, most trolls keep that to a minimum.

i never do this, but this post and the server the poster's info says is just plain and simple asking for it.
1st: learn some damn english man!
2nd: PvE server. 'nuff said.i'm pro all classes, and against none in particular..
but the age old QQ about venos is just that. OLD.
QQ'd about a nix lately? check out this thread n tell me who's "OP" lol..

cy@ l8rzSins are Scissors. Psychics are Rocks.
Archers, Venos, Barbs, Wizards, BMs, Mystics, Seekers are Paper.
...and Clerics are Mushrooms.
Paper beats Rock. Scissors beats Paper. Scissors also happens to beat Rock...until Rock gets 50k+ soulforce at which point Rock becomes an unstoppable killing machine that beats Paper... and would beat Scissors but it can't find Scissors, because Scissors are invisible.
So Scissors beat Paper and avoids Rock, and that is called BALANCE. -cheze0 -

Well im lvl 82 and i have 101 vit , 50 str , 5 dex and 325 mag and i very very rarely die in FBs and TTs and im in front with the tank helping tank/heal at the same time . I didnt go by a system , i just think of what i should do to beable to solo my own quests and be able to solo most of my own bosses but ofcourse not all bosses . I have 3360 hp ( over 4k hp with barb burr ) and i survive very well and have also added hp stones to my armor to help . I am very happy with my build . In order to be a good player with any class , just learn to solo your own quests with no help ( except fo most bosses and fbs and tts ) if not then u will never properly learn to play your character correctly and die alot and or get others killed in the process .0
