Cleric out damage mages lol - again

It's not? Looked like that to me =] You know I'm right tho b:laugh
Peace out b:victory

Remember, hes not talking of a usual situation. Outdamaging a wiz would be unlikely, yes. Hes talking about THE perfect situation and senario that can be used to test it out. There is nothing bad about experimenting and exploring. Most of the pple on the forum seem to shun these threads just because it doesnt fit their description of the norm and even go their way to post to belittle them.

you do realize this is a game, and in that people can do what they want. I see nothing wrong with a FA Cleric. If someone wishes to do it let them

Saying that guide is a total waste of space and that the build is just a waste of time is just being childish.

Let people do what they want, I personally love the ideas and builds people have come up with.

Everyone just needs to calm down and chill, enough with the bashing and play the game

this is the forum, not the game. i'll do what i please here. fac doesn't exist after 60, who cares. you don't even matter until 9x.

the thing is, the term "full attack" is taken too literally. that's why i say it the way i do. i've met people my level with NO healing ability. no res ability. nothing. why? they read that fac guide, they saw "full attack" and went with it. if anything, change it to "attack cleric", or "combat cleric" or something. "full attack" is too direct.

a cleric with no heal/rez is so useless

yes, useless to you. . but maybe they want to play that type of character. . why is it wrong for them to try??





and yes I agree with you forp in the sense that most ppl really are just attack clerics. . but just because someone tries to be a FA cleric does not make them useless

Look you can do what ever you want, have xxxxxx999 sparks and still they would do more dmg.
Like i said, i went to see can i take aggro from a mage my lv, same build.
Answer is NO, and i mean NO like even if i had my demon skills the fact would not change.

?Soooo..???? Its not your problem if he wants to test things out and find out for his own? Hes not forcing you to watch, spend your money, much less borrow your gear or your time.

This forum has lost all credibilty on what is possible and what isn't. Anyone trying to disprove mysticflex who is not a cleric with the listed demon skills should never over-estimate themselves as being an expert when they have never even tried it. Trying seems to be too much effort instead of simply typing.

Also, just because someone can't do something, doesn't mean all clerics can't do it. Never under-estimate how bad of a cleric you are at these times.

Same icon debuffs do not stack, they end up over-writing with the most recent one being the active one. This was tested with the Elemental Seal being used with a veno pet's ele debuff skill. The veno then used their scarab with no weapon equipped so that their dmg was only 1 possible number. That said, I think different icon debuffs do stack in a way. This part I'm not as sure about, I know we tested with the phys debuff and dimensional seal debuff, but it's been 3 months since we did it. Would recommend someone retesting that to double check, instead of just saying no. Just remember taking away the concept same icon doesn't stack from the whole test.

EDIT: Mstic, you should drop the effect of demon SG down to 150% from 220%. They are right in that a wizard will get the SG buff in about every possible time, they just can't count on it getting cast every 10 secs. So the 150% can be counted for the cleric only, and no one will really have an arguement against that.

Also, has anyone tried to see if the 100% sage boost on wellspring lasts the full duration? Considering the demon one isn't much better, and only lasts 10 secs, I'd throw out the guess that it was simply omitted by accident for the sage benefit as well. That would be too large a power gap between the respective celestial skills

But out of "CURIOSITY" if a cleric did the following
Chromatic seal - 34 seconds
Elemental seal - 30% magic defence reduction for 20 seconds
Demons spirits gift - +220% weapon damage for 10 seconds
Weild Thunder - 30% metal defence reduction - 10 seconds
Demons spirits gift - +220% weapon damage for 10 seconds
Demons tempest - 620% weapon damage + 13503.0

I was trying to understand this combo, so I went to ecatacomb and then made up some details:

Start range 26.5 meters, target awake has not attacked yet
...level 10 Chromatic seal costs 30 chi, 637 mana, sleeps target
time: +1.0 seconds (target asleep)
...level 10 elemental seal, gains 10 chi, costs 192 mana, -30% mdef
time: +2.0 seconds (target asleep)
...demon spirit give, gains 10 chi, costs 595 mana, +150% m attack
time: +3.0 seconds (target asleep)
...demon wield thunder, gains 10 chi, costs 595 mana
......metal damage:
.........base magic damage has +150% m attack against -30% mdef
.........+200% weapon damage against -30% mdef
.........+6365 damage against -30% mdef
time: +5.5 seconds (target awake or dead)

Here you threw in another demon spirit's gift but I am pretty sure you should not bother because they do not stack. Or, if they did stack, you should have chained several of them together before you attacked. But I am pretty sure they do not stack.

wield thunder reduces your target's metal defense by 30%. But you had already reduced your target's metal defense by 30% with elemental seal. Do they stack with each other? I do not know. Has anyone tried this? Do we know if any of these skills have significant bugs or documentation problems?

...demon tempest, requires 2 spark, costs 655 mana
......metal damage
........base magic damage +150% m attack against -30% or -60% mdef
........+400% weapon damage against -30% or -60% mdef
........+13503 damage against -30% or -60% mdef
time: +9.5 seconds

Presumably, for this exercise to be working properly, your target would have been alive and sitting there ignoring you when you cast tempest? (Otherwise you might have been interrupted).

I do not know but... you might be right here? You could certainly dish out lots of damage. But even with me making stuff up I have too many variables to figure out even approximately how much damage you would be delivering. (I would need to know your gear, your target, your target's defenses, and health and... maybe how much you paid your target so he would stand still for this.)

-30% elemental reduction, -10% from metal. that stacks, it's 2 different debuffs. -40% from metal. 1 undine strike is -60% from the 3 elements a mage uses.

mage wins in debuff.

tempest, as compared to black ice dragon, blace ice dragon does more in base damage alone.

he keeps adding +150% magic attack, which is null, seeing as that's weaker than a level 29 "spark eruption", for a second less than it.

both have the ability to use a demon spark(3 sparks), and a chi pot to use their tempest. demon spirit's gift does not stack with spark, it overrides it, so it comes down to base damage+debuff. in both areas, the mage wins.

Yup mages own in DD, and i think enuff was said about this.

Let's get this straight. Probably under 30, clerics will outDD mages. But pretty much after that, mages will outDD clerics and outDD FACs around lv40-45. The only way a cleric can outDD a mage is if they get interrupted like, on every spell or something.

Prof - Harshlands wrote: »

mages in the lower levels have the same attack power as a cleric until level 6. after than, mage is stronger.

They do, but dunno. Just with my experience, clerics seem to outdamage mages in the lower levels. Don't ask why cause I don't know.
