Skylar Cb 0 Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 (edited) About This Guide This may look like a swiss army knife Inquisitor but trust me when I say It's not...This Inquisitor is relyant on 2 aspects & the 3rd is just for support...His main aspects are Gruesome Inquisition & Astute Supremacy for the fact that he's a melee/crowd control Inquisitor...His backup aspect is Nefarious Netherworld...This aspect if you read the guide carefully is just meant for De-Buffing enemies & good attack & defense value through Soul Reaver if you can't find good armor...With that said, Let's get started... Skills and Deity Deity = Testa - Take TESTA because it's a good Divine Gift for clearing out hordes of enemies. Level 02- Concentration - Take this for dual buff usage & reduced regen times with all combat arts (75) Level 50- Constitution - Take this for more hitpoints & better hitpoint regeneration during combat (82) Level 65- Toughness OR Sword Weapons - Toughness for lack of sets or Swords for PvP & better use of swords (80) Note: If you plan to take an Inquisitor level 200...Do pay attention to the numbers to the right of each skill cus that number specifies what level each skill should be at by level 200...And on a side note, the higher level numbers are skills you should try and master first! Attribute Points For a Caster & Dual Wield Inquisitor you would want to assign most of your points to the Attributes of Strength, Stamina & Intelligence. "Why these ones?" Im sure you'll ask...so are you ready? Well here it goes...You want to add your points to these attributes for the sake of being able to spam ultra deadly Combat Arts & that's what Stamina & Intelligence will do. Then when your not spamming Combat Arts (in case that grows boring), you want to assign to Strength so you can HIT & HT HARD. Combos and Buff Usage This is Semi-Straight-Forward...For Buffs...you wanna use the following in order (cus of Concentration): Reverse Polarity --> Soul Reaver --> Purifying Chastisement As for Combos...you wanna use the following in order: Combo 1 (melee attack): Ruthless Mutilation + Callous Execution Combo 2 (debuffer): Dislodged Spirit + Inexorable Subjugation + Mortifying Pillory Combo 3 (crowd control): At lower levels when you don't have Combat Discipline mastered just use everything but Eruptive Desecration.... Raving Thrust + Clustering Maelstrom + Levin Array + Eruptive Desecration Combo 4 (temporary boost/enemy weaken spell): Paralyzing Dread + Frenetic Fervor Combat Art Mods Note: Before we begin, most combat arts I recommend you mod are ones I'd recommend you use...So basically all of them! And also, Numbers next to each of the combat arts means mod them in order of the lowest to highest number specified! Gruesome Inquisition Callous Execution:3 Bronze-Bleed = Chance for open wound Silver-Lacerate = Chance for deep wound Gold-Judgement = Increased chance for critical hits Ruthless Mutilation:2 Bronze-Ire = Increased damage Silver-Petrify = Chance for stun Gold-Frenzy = Chance for double hits Mortifying Pillory:1 Bronze-Disgrace = Reduces opponent's armor class temporarily Silver-Proclamation = Increases the threat the outlaw poses Gold-Mortify = Reduces the opponent's defense value Frenetic Fervor:5 Bronze-Faith = Reduces casting time for spells Silver-Resolve = Increases attack value Gold-Relentless = Increases duration Purifying Chastisement (Buff):4 Bronze-It's your choice depending on which type of damage you use the most Silver-Merciless = Increases the threshold to 35% Gold-Hallow = Adds more damage to the buff Astute Supremacy Levin Array:3 Bronze-Elongation = Increases range of lightning Silver-Hesitation = Briefly decreases enemy attack speed Gold-Dynamic = Increased chance for critical hits Clustering Maelstrom:1 Bronze-Gravitation = Adds damage bonus Silver & Gold-Vortex = Increases the range Raving Thrust:2 Bronze-Bedaze = Adds a chance to stun enemies Silver-Relay = Also knocks back enemies near the targeted opponent Gold-Lesion = Adds a chance to inflict a deep wound Zealous Doppelganger:5 Bronze-Incentive = Increases attack & defense value Silver-Equal = Gives Doppelganger Gruesome Inquisition Aspect Gold-Companion = Doppelganger becomes a permanent buff Reverse Polarity (Buff):4 Bronze-Rebound = Adds chance to reflect magic damage Silver-Counterblow = Adds chance to reflect close combat damage Gold-Exploit = Each party member recieves 5% of damage intended for inquisitor Nefarious Netherworld Dislodged Spirit:1 Bronze-Spite = Increases duration for the soul being held Silver-Deprivation = Further decreases opponent's attribute values while soul is held Gold-Wildfire = Adds physical damage & when person dies, the corpse will explode & inflict area damage Paralyzing Dread:5 In all honesty...I recommend you don't take any mods for this Combat Art after the bronze one! Bronze-Panic = Reduces opponents' attack value Silver-Decrepit = Reduces attack speed even further Gold-Confidence = Increases attack value of Inquisitor Inexorable Subjugation:4 I also recommend you don't go past the bronze slot with this combat art as well! Bronze-Brunt = Inflicts more magic damage per time unit Silver-Menace = Spectral companion poses a higher threat Gold-Probation = Increases spectral companion's life span Eruptive Desecration:2 Bronze-Restore = Corpse damage will heal you Silver-Danger Zone = Increases area of effect Gold-Apocolypse = Increases explosion range Soul Reaver (Buff):3 This buff I recommend that you only mod it if you CAN'T find good equipment! Bronze-Zealot = Increases the lifespan of the reanimated souls Silver-Recreation = Increases hitpoint regen rate when accompanied by souls Gold-Soul Imbiber = Heals the Inquisitor every time he collects a soul Equipment As for equipment...I recommend the use of the Deylen's Power Set for this guy at least if your a console user...reason is...the final set bonus for the Ilgard's Judgement set is bugged and it makes the "Chance to Inflict Serious Open Wounds" effect as I'd like to say an Inquisitor Killer instead of a Bad Guy Killer if you catch my drift! Now if you're a PC player go ahead & enjoy your Ilgard's set! Anyway back to the Deylen's set...if you've noticed...one of the Deylen's set pieces...specifically the chestplate "Deylen's Haughtiness" gives you a nice bonus to the Gruesome Inquisition Aspect as is so there's no reason to worry about that stupid Ilgard's set guys! This Deylen's set has everything you need except for the boss killing aspect of an Inquisitor which can actually be provided if you socket a nice All Combat Arts Bonus into the armor for the sake of that Nefarious Netherworld Aspect! Onto weapons now...For weapons I'd recommend the use of Officer's Sabers socketed with high level Damage/All Skills Rings if your fortunate enough to know someone who can do that for you! If not...stick to Khandar's Slicers or Sword of the Blood Dryads cus on my first couple of builds these things really didn't let me down & also the Sword of Blood Dryad's Damage of Enraged Players effect really helps with raising the hitpoint threshold on your Purifying Chastisement Buff...But also don't rely on just those swords...Find armor & jewelry that has the same effects as the swords if not an All Skills or Armor Bonus bonus cus it will really help this guy out later down the road! Closing I can honestly say that building this character was not easy my first time around...this was actually the design of my 2nd Inquisitor because my 1st one was junk! On a side note too...the reason I chose the combat art skills I did is cus the attributes points that I add give me enough of damage bonus & the focuses are also so in the future after you've modded out the combat arts you can add runes to the Arts with out much of a penalty & still get a good damage bonus! Anyway hope to get good feedback on the guide & I hope it helps! Edited July 7, 2010 by Skylar Cb Link to comment

Yeskalinen 0 Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Same here working through grad school. I only get to play sometimes, I'm more swamped with research right now. Link to comment
Giggles 1 Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Looks like a very fun build to play with. I do have a question though....where are the inbetween skills? Are we just to pick what we like? Link to comment
Sacred Player 0 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 (edited) The inbetween skills were messed up by the Christmas theme that was put on this forum December 2010....If you want to know the other skills that were ther PM me...... EDIT: Just saw that you're on xbox, get ahold of me there instead and mention this forum.... Edited March 23, 2011 by Sacred Guru Link to comment
Little Faith 24 Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Looks like a very fun build to play with. I do have a question though....where are the inbetween skills? Are we just to pick what we like? Lemme hazard a guess: Dual Wield Armor Lore Astute Lore Astute Focus Ruthless Focus Tactics Lore NefNeth Focus Don't hold me up on the order though. Link to comment
