Cleric your favorite Tier 1 twists priority

[firemedium_jt]

Endless Faith or Endless turning or Unearthy Reactions (+6 reflex) or Radiance power or Healing power?

Thinking

Endless Faith always
Unearthy Reactions for EE or all?
Cocoon
Endless turning (for zerg EH)
Radiance Power
Healing Power

in that order of importance?

Include how you run if different Destinies and your favorite Destiny?

[Silverleafeon]

Are you in Angel or Unyielding?

Are you melee or caster offensively?

Are you pure or monk/pally splash?

Do you intend to heal much?


Favorites for caster cleric

First slot Tsunami (tier 3) OR Energy Burst (tier 4) whatever energy you like best

Second slot
If in Angel 2) Endless Faith (tier 1)
If in Unyielding 2) Renewal ~ with empowered healing and enlarge applied (tier 3)

Third Slot Cocoon ~ with empowered healing and optional enlarge metamagics applied (tier 1)


Tsunami, Renewal, Cocoon is fairly rare combo to see, it require max fate points and uses a fair amount of sp.
However it is effective for an Unyielding divine.

You would probably prefer Endless Faith to Tsunami.
But the walk across spheres is truly worth it for Cocoon.
Cheap heals mean more sp to spend elsewhere.
For the same reason, Renewal is worth twisting in for Unyielding.

A cleric does not get as much out of Angel as a Favored Soul does,
however a Morninglord Divine Disciple might consider it.
Once Divine Wrath is charged up, keeping it going every 15 second is easier with a large amount of mobs present.

[firemedium_jt]

Yeah I forgot Cocoon in there. amended.

Cocoon is the one that does not need line of sight right? and nice range?

It is a Melee Cleric mainly, but more of a Generalist. The plan is to stay in FOTW for melee role in EH with Grimm Precision or Lay Waste? Momentum Swing and Endless Faith for mana.

For a Healing role zerg EH with Exalted Angel with Sense Weakness, Momentum swing and Endless turning.

For a EE or raid healing then in Exalted Angel for spell points with Cocoon, Unearthly Reactions, and Endless Turning or Healing Power.

The plan is to mostly go FOTW melee unless optimal healing is needed. He has some Generalist casting spell power if needed if short on casters. Endless faith is needed cause his mana is low.

[firemedium_jt]

Sense weakness, Improved power attack, and, depending on quest, either healing power or tunnel vision.

That's what I carry : )


Ok, but what is your Destiny?

[Makkuroi]

For my clonk: brace for impact + legendary tactics + evocation specialist,

Im planning to replace evo specialist with sense weakness (serious dps increase on a clonk) once I can upgrade the slot to tier 4 (need 3 more fate points). Occasionally slotting energy burst (fire) seems interesting, too.

Im currently running FoTW to unlock primal epic destiny feats (perfect TWF and mass frog), but might want to go back to GMoF as primary destiny some time.

disclaimer: Im mostly running EH, often solo.

edit: with aura and ameliorating strike, i get a lot of free healing, so I think cocoon is overkill.

edit2: build: 18/2 clonk, wis based, full twf, grave wrappings with stunning fist (thus legendary tactics), radiant aura + ameliorating strike, no spellpen (except +7 from PLs) and no heighten but decent evo dc from high wis, +3 evo from feats +3 from magister evo twist +4 (+5 at 26) from wheelon necklace.

[firemedium_jt]

If you all could edit and give a brief summary of your builds. What kinda caster clerics and what kind of melee clerics.



+1
Ameliorating strike is very helpful for mass healing/supplemental healing. I use it alot. It is just the melees should let me get it in to top them off before they kill the last monster, lol.

[SirValentine]

As others have said, it depends on build, and on quest. I'm fond of caster divines. I'd pretty much always be in Exalted Angel.

A typical set-up for me for EEs would be:

Evocation Specialist
Precise Evocation
Acute Instincts



Though I might go defensive and do this for, say, FoT:

Energy Sheath
Cocoon
Draconic Perception



Or to plough through easy content even faster (Hard CitW, e.g.)

Energy Burst
Wild Shots
Boulder Toss



The wonderful thing about twists (and gear) is that you can easily change them all the time as needed. Unlike other parts of your build where you really do need to plan carefully and stick to the optimum.

Energy sheath looks good.

What do u mean by energy burst?

Thx for the details based on build and content.

I think Unearthly might be better than perception.

[Vellrad]

What do u mean by energy burst?



Draconic T4,

1d15+15 damage per level, (acid/fire/cold/elec), reflex save for half, DC20+int/cha+half level

[axel15810]

I run a melee cleric.

I like the +30 spellpower from angel. If raiding, I'll swap to cocoon.

Other than that my 2 other commonly used twists are improved power attack and momentum swing, this is while in Fury of the Wild.
