Ascendant question

[Revanroi]

I want to play a caster type Cipher, what do you think is better: Ascendant single class or multiclass with something like Rogue, Paladin, Devoted...

[TheDogProfessor]

Check some of the earlier threads anout multiclass options. The ciphers seem to be quite popular and have been talked about a lot. You should be able to find some useful info.

It deppends on what your playstile and whan you want.

 

I'll play a paladin bw/ascendant using fod to try and get 1 hit max focus .. then spamming. It will work also with an assasin/ascendant where you could backstab from stealth and then escape to range before starting the spam (then smoke cloud or shadowing beyond and repeat).

 

But if you are going more for melee (devoted or assasin) i think soulblade will be better and use the focus to do soul annihilation.

 

 

Edit: As a note that still needs testing, the lvl 9 passive for cipher gives you +1% area for each pp, with a pure ascendant you will be casting at that lvl all your skills at 150+ pp so +150% area on all skills.
