Using bless protection and divine strike is better than using smite. I theory tested this build to the limits already and smite is undeniably a wasted slot. If you must keep smite put faithfulness on, and run high PDR, with no divine protection.
@@brissywink yea, thats paladin cleric the second viable cleric meta. And arguably the best build in the game right now, though I believe move speed cleric is better.
@@smalldevils2929 sorry, new player here and im confused. is this video the move speed cleric build? but with some spells instead of smite? what else is different? do you still use divine protection?
I will forever say that you have one of the biggest influences in dnd I can’t go 3 games without seeing a build you created. Just killed a double cleric in duos running this exact build. Come to yt and see this. Cheer firebox keep it up.
I run this build with a PoS warlock + the beer perk- prio Agi since you’ll be gaining ~30+ str from buffs. (They can also PoS you if they need more healing in a ranged fight) People get baited to fight you, then when they realize they need to run they can’t because of the smite faithfulness slows 💀 You will stat check and run over Barbs I run a Warmaul secondary for blockers and keep a shield in the inventory if I need to push ranged and smite punch them to death
Been killing geared fighters, rouges, druids, spell clerics and the occational mid geared ranger with this, i have to remove chest plate to stand a chance against wizards and warlocks but it's been working really well
I'm curious... if smites only there to apply the slow for faithfulness, why not run spell cleric and use divine strike? Is it having to rest, cast time in fights, or something else. I'd love to hear opinions
Well you’d lose out on 1 of the really good skills u run in this build. You’d have much lower pdr cuz you’d need high will to do damage as well as some knowledge to have enuf spell memory for ur setup. On top of that casting makes u mad slow and people could definitely just play from a farther range than ur divine strike or just run from u if u miss one or don’t hit one in them to start
i think brewmaster is underrated u can get 10 strength with the perk plus 4 strength for 15sec for 8 gold, basically free and can go higher with better ale
wizards? no, no wizards for sure. but at least half the lobby is warlocks for quite some time now :P and the other half is usually just druids, bow fighters, and bards.
Yeah 40% PDR with 1/3rd plate 313 MS. Then in teams 2 sancs that just wash away all the mistakes of the fight. Cleric might need a buff! Good video as always tho.
I was wondering about this build with divine protection and instead of smite and faithfulness you rather take spell mastery and something else like brew master for more dmg or holy aura for even more tankiness. As spells I was thinking about bless, protection, divine strike, lesser heal and whatever. Extra dmg and protection from these spells. How would that work chat, what do you think?
Imagine getting killed and having your legendary armor and weapons taken. Then having to buy them back from the guy who killed you from the Market. That's hurt^2'd
havent watched the video yet but based off the first fight i feel like against kiting wizards and warlocks with the same gear range youd be mega screwed edit: i guess movement speed and no wizards helps the build a lot. warlocks are still a problem though cause they can phantomize out of the faithful slow and they are built to be fast
even with phantomize if they want to actually gain distance they need to stow their weapon because the faithful slow negates the phantomize speed boost
nice video even if i didnt understand everything ive been playing the f2p version its actually a banger but i want the real game so bad anyone can help me out (i am on steam)
This build might be really strong due to the high agi stats... enjoy the video!
Reminds me of high agi/dex/ phys power/action speed cleric build from last season using divine protection

Been loving your content lately man! Glad I found the channel.
@@earth2Utube thanks appreciate it!
All I could think when you asked "do I fight the warlock?". Was.. for science!
The amount of satisfaction I got watching you run that rogue down after he ripped his chestpiece off is indescribable c:
love your attitude and vibe man. really good content creator
Great videos Firebox. For 3v3's with backline cleric, what do you recommend the knowledge cap being before you start going for will gear? Thanks
I do not play 3v3s , so I don't have any advice here

I run a Warmaul secondary for blockers and keep a shield in the inventory if I need to push ranged and smite punch them to death
Is this build pretty gear dependent?
I just played about 5 rounds of duos with this build(not quite as good of gear but same idea) absolutely smacks
Been killing geared fighters, rouges, druids, spell clerics and the occational mid geared ranger with this, i have to remove chest plate to stand a chance against wizards and warlocks but it's been working really well
Imo you can switch Lightfoot Boot for Laced Turnshoe if you have low budget
is the smite+faithfulness synergy intended? has it always been like this?
was ballin with war maul + smite & faithfulness (they didn't see it coming) 🥦
Firebox. Instead of perseverance, What about taking the drunk perk for 10 Str.
What do you think?

Yeah that uh....sounds like a cleric. The whole point is is isnt using spells lol
That was a fun video. Man's hoarding up on gear, tearing through the dungeon like that.
Firebox thank you for the work you do. My favorite cleric!
You've created a pandemic with this build lmao so many clerics in my games with this exact build
How can I get in touch to give you a cleric build you haven’t done yet but is probably the best build in the game currently, id like you to review it.
Bruh the description has his discord server and his twitch in it
can you make a youtube short so we can see
@@bayleaf2383 I aint a fan,
@@jasong345tg7 good idea ill post some clips of me rinsing people to youtube in the coming weeks
@@smalldevils2929You’re not a fan, but at the same time want to get in touch with the dude, so you can show him a build?
lol bro said "I got this one thing for this one guy I met..."
Been playing this exact build in normals for the longgesst (the dont mess with me or die build)
paladin build?
ran into bro in solo gobby caves and he had to team with another healer cleric to kill me…. pretty cool guy

so disappointed in the druid than walked into a trap in rat form 😭
I feel like you can just run judgement instead of getting insane pdr for 4 seconds
Feel like solo druid only counter wizard right now lol
Now i know the Sun
War maul is funny, if you land a hit, people are SOOOOOO slow... And with faithfulness it's going to be complete cancer. 65%+ slow on hit
that build is old as fck, stil gg good video
Soon you will reach true enlightenment and you will play this build with a few minor tweaks and a Warmaul.
But the move speed debuff....it would be so hard to catch some classes..
The worst fights that could have been shown. Rogues, druids, warlocks...
sup
nice video even if i didnt understand everything ive been playing the f2p version its actually a banger but i want the real game so bad anyone can help me out (i am on steam)
No spell cleric sounds bad giving up all my buffs and heals is silly no offense
I'm begging you please stop the cleric vids, i cant handle dying to any more bonks from guys with male pattern baldness in full bis
