Revamped Physician Guide and Tips

Konnichiwa!~ MilleFiyu desu!

I. Quick Introduction

I'm playing Physician since 50 cap and gained a lot of experience from it and I just wanted to share my knowledge about it.
Physician has a lot of duties both PVE and PVP. They are one of the best support class in the game. (I think next to Saint)
Physician can also be the main support like the Saint if handled very good. So I'm here to share some tips to the aspiring Physicians out there.

Now that the Physician Revamp has come to DN SEA server, there would be some changes in our class.
Our role is still the same which is a support and a mini-dps class. A lot of skills have changed in the revamp, so we must adjust a little.
So I would like to share to you guys my ideas and thoughts about these changes, and how are we going to deal with it.

Please feel free to share your thoughts and ideas as well.

Okay so let’s start~


II. Some Questions

Q1: Why Physician?
A: Because it's a Loli!!! and the class is very useful in every way the game goes
Q2: Is Physician good for Main?
A: For me it is good too if you are not that into DPS type of player.
Q3: How good is the Physician DPS?
A: Sad to say but it isn't quite good. But if you are really a geared type of player, you can still feel its damage.
Q4: How good is the Physician Support?
A: It is very good if you ask. They can also overdo the Saint's job if handled very good.

Okay so let's begin!



III. Skill Description

First is knowing the Physician's role in PVE. They are one of the best support in game that can do various of work for the party.
Physician has a bit of a DPS, a very good Support, a very good Debuffer, and a very good Buffer.



Skill Tree

I'll be tackling the important skills on each tree and try to explain their use.


Academic Tree

Wax (Max) - This skill is very important. It gives an additional speed buff of 50% and a falling rate of 33% (for small to medium type of monsters). It must be maxed to decrease cooldown the skill cooldown.
Force Out (Max) - Force Out is one of the core skills for Physician on their mini-dps. Max this to boost the damage of the Class Master III.
Auto Dispenser - The best packed lunch. The Loli will summon a food dispenser which is packed with healing and buffing items randomly.

Bubble Bubble [Revamped] – As of today, the skill description is bugged, but I will try my best to explain its effect and changes. The skill has the same use from before. You can still use it to immobilize your target for a small amount of time, or to shield you allies. The buff effect of the skill has changed into a Super Armor Shield, granting your allies 40% SA (maxed) when they got hit.




Alchemist Tree


Bubble Charging Skills:These skills gives "Bubble". What is Bubble? Bubble is one of the most important part on playing the Alchemist. Every time you use these skills, the Alchemist will gain Bubble. These Bubbles can be stack up to 20 times and will be useful for some of the Alchemist Skills.

Injector (Max) - The Physician's most used skill. The damage is decent and is very spammable. Use this skill very often to generate bubbles fast.
Magma Punch - for debuff and bubble charging purposes only
Icing Punch - bubble charging purposes only
Disease (Max) - This skill is very important for the Physician's mini-dps. The poisoning last for 10 seconds with a 5% damage for 7 times.

Poison Charging [Revamped] - Changed from Passive to Active. You can still use the skill like before, by pressing Left Mouse Button after Tumble.This skill is one of the Utility skills of the Alchemist. This skill has a low damage increment and the sole purpose of the skill is to spam bubble and Poison Break EX.

Ice Palm (Optional) - damage & summon filler +1 bubble
Icing Mass (Optional) - damage filler & bubble charging


Bubble Using Skills: These skills uses Bubble. The bubbles are automatically used when the skill is used.

Summon Slime - The slime is the squishy best friend of Physician. They have a big role on supporting the Physician. The slime can be summoned twice. They last for 60 seconds.

• 2 Bubbles = Fire Attack
• 4 Bubbles = Poison Attack
• 6 Bubbles = Ice Attack - This is the most important skill of the Slime. It is highly recommended to summon them with 6 Bubbles and will serve as an ice stacker for the party. If the enemies are frozen, more damage.

Magma Wall (Optional) - The Alchemist will summon a circle of magma walls around her and deals damage.

• 3 Bubbles = 50% Damage Increase
• 5 Bubbles = 100% Damage Increase

Mixed Infection (Max) - The Physician's best dps skill. A giant bubble will be summoned and burst on the ground.

• 3 Bubbles = 50% Damage Increase
• 5 Bubbles = 100% Damage Increase

Magma Wave (Optional) - for damage and dps. You can upgrade this skill to level 6 if you want some burst.

• 3 Bubbles = 50% Damage Increase and enhances to 2.5m Radius
• 5 Bubbles = 100% Damage Increase and enhances to 3m Radius

Poison Break (Max) - One of the best damaging skill of the Physician.

• 3 Bubbles = 50% Damage Increase
• 5 Bubbles = 100% Damage Increase

Poison Pool (SS) - Max this skill to attain the maximum damage.

• 3 Bubbles = 40% Damage Increase
• 5 Bubbles = 80 Damage Increase

Sacrifice- This will detonate the slime and damage the surrounding enemies. It will also give a buff that recovers 1% (0.4% before) of HP for 25 seconds.

Cocktail [Revamped] - The skill does not consume bubbles anymore. The skill duration is changed to 900 seconds (pretty long) and the effect is retained. Cooldown changed from 10 seconds to 5 seconds.

• +50% INT
• +10% Healing Skills Recovery Rate (33% before)
• +25% Cooldown Reduction (22% before)

Passive:

Eureka - Received damage reduces by 0.75% per bubble. A total of 15% damage reduction from 20 Bubbles.
Hypnosis - Utility skill, can be use after Injector by pressing the right mouse button.


Bubble Enhancers: These 2 passive skills of Alchemist will enhance the Bubble Charging skills from 1 Bubble to 2 Bubbles.

Chemical Bubble Charging - Obtains 2 bubbles from dark and healing skills: Injector, Poison Charging, Disease, Love Virus, Heal Shower
Elemental Bubble Charging - Obtain 2 bubble from fire and ice skills: Magma Punch, Icing Punch. Obtain 1 Bubble from: Icing Mass, Ice Palm, Napalm Bomb

Awakening Tree

Poison Strike [Revamped] - This skill is the best dps skill of the Physician now. It has 16750% of damage (pretty good) with a wide range of effect that also damage surrounding enemies. The casting range to hit the target is also increased (less clumsy loli now) and has a cooldown of 17 seconds. (13 seconds cooldown when Cocktail is on, so it is very spammable)

Awakened Love Virus [Revamped] - The area and the range of Love Virus is enhanced. Love Virus deals continuous damage along its path.



IV. Skill Build


Set A (Pure PVE Physician)

Set A skill build is for the Pure PVE Physicians. This skill build requires to max the Skills in the Physician Tree aside from Poison Charging. Why? Because the damage increment on each level of the skill is not that high, and we need to sacrifice some SP for other skills such as, Poison Cure (New skill that requires 10 SP), Bubble Bubble [Revamped] (for shielding and SA buff), Love Virus [Revamped] (better damage) and Force Out.



Set B (PVE + Magma Skills)

Set B is for the love of Magma Skills, like Magma Wall and Magma Wave. These 2 Alchemist Skill is also useful on clearing and wiping a wide area of enemies like in Daily Quests and the Gold Goblin Dungeon.



Set C (PVE&PVP Build)

Lastly is the Set C, for PVE and/or PVP players out there. Getting the Magma skills for AOE, Icing mass for slow and range.



V. The Supporting Role

As I said earlier, Physician has one of the best supporting role in the game. They can Heal, Cure, Buff and Debuff for the party.
So here are some tips to effectively fulfill the support role of your Physician.


A. Healing and Buffing

The Physician has three Healing with Buff Abilities, these are the: Auto Dispenser, Sacrifice and Heal Shower

Auto Dispenser - Always spam this skill whenever it is ready. It gives different set of 6 random items (Healing and Buffing) that will support your party.
I highly recommend to get +1 Skill Accessory for this skill to give a total of 8 items.

Sacrifice - This skill is also useful for your party. It recovers 1% of HP every 2 seconds. HP Recovery Buff is applied that is 10% base of your magic attack, also every 2 seconds. The buff also gives 5% Attack increase for you and your team mates. The buff lasts for 25 seconds.

Heal Shower - The main healing ability of Physician. It recovers 20% of Max HP.
NOTE: Class Mastery I boost the Physician attack for 10 seconds, whenever she uses her dark and healing abilities: Injector, Disease, Poison Charging, Love Virus and Healing Shower

Wax - Always spam this skill too to boost you and your party's mobility.

Injector - We Physicians always spam this skill to gain bubbles, and now, it also give 10% action speed buff. Party member/s who gets hit by the Injector will also receive the action speed buff. Spam Injector on boss, near the team mates who are dps-ing the boss, make sure you hit most of the DPS type class in the party.

Bubble Bubble - This skill is revamped and it gives 40% SA when maxed. It may be a little hard for you to use this on your party members, but it is also useful when you learn when and where you will shoot the skill. The bubble will travel and will give the shielding effect to any party members it hit. The best thing to do is use it in a close range while your team mates are dps-ing in one spot. Target this on the ground so more members will get hit.


B. Curing and Debuffing

After the current Physician revamp, the cure from Poison Break has been removed. New skill is added in the Physician Tree to replace the curing skill of Physician.

Poison Cure [New Skill] - Creates a gigantic heart that continuously cure any negative buffs on you and your allies every 2 seconds. The skill has 60 seconds cooldown and lasts for 10 seconds.

NOTE: Not all debuff effects can be cured esp. in Raid Nests

Physician also have the abilities to debuff their target:

Magma Punch - reduces the target's elemental resist by 20%, good for elemental type and raid party.

Love Virus - increases the damage to the target by 20%

Summon Slime - The Ice Attack of Slime that freezes the enemy will give additional damage. (Search "Ice Stacking" for more info.)


NOTE: Always start by buffing yourself and your party. Before starting the attack, make sure that you as the Physician, debuffed the target first. This will help your party to deal more damage.


Utilizing your Slimes: To maximize the use of your slimes, make sure you have enough bubbles (6 or more) to get the useful attack of your slime. Watch your slime carefully after summoning. If you saw the slime casted the Ice Attack, you can now Sacrifice it for the party buff and healing. Spam your Injector to replenish the cooldown of Summon Slime.

Waxing: Wax is another important skill of the Academic. It gives an additional 50% movement speed to anyone who step on it, that last for 9 seconds. Always spam your Wax near or on the boss, this will help you and your party to move in and out of the boss' distance in any situations.

VI. The Mini-DPS Role

The Physician is far weaker than its counterpart Adept, but it doesn't mean that we don't have damage. We can still manage to DPS on our own and solo nests. *heh XD*
The best Skill of the Physician is the Mixed Infection, followed by Poison Break and Poison Pool (SS).

NOTE: Disease boosts the Mixed Infection and Poison Break damage


Forced Mix Infection

The damage of Mixed Infection is highly boosted from the Class Mastery III. To maximize the damage of the Mixed Infection, debuff first the target (Love Virus & Magma Punch) followed by Disease (which increases the Mixed Infection damage by 100%) and Force Out (which enhances the explosion damage by 200%)


Force Out Slime


Mixed Infection Explosion


NOTE: Make sure that you will successfully hit the SLIME from Force Out to obtain the additional explosion damage.


Poison Breaking - The Poison Break is also one of the best damaging skill of the Physician. It has a low cooldown and the instant Poison Break does not share cooldown. You should always use this skill next to Disease to maximize its damage.

Poison Striking - The Poison Strike is now the best damaging skill of the Physician. It has a cooldown of 13 seconds (with Cocktail Buff). Always spam this skill whenever it is ready.


VII. Skill Rotation

Here are some set of skill rotations and combinations that you can use to DPS as a Physician. First, you should always start by having 20 maximum bubbles and Cocktail Buff. Always use Love Virus and Magma Punch first because this will debuff your target. Love Virus gives 20% additional damage to the target. While Magma Punch decreases the elemental resist by 20% to the target.

This is my best skill rotation for the Revamped Physician

Slime Pool (If ready, you can also skip this and start with...) > Love Virus > Magma Punch > Disease > Poison Strike > Force Out > Mixed Infection > Poison Break > Poison Charging > Disease (if ready) > Poison Break Instant (click it really fast after casting Disease)

VIII. Physician Equipment

The Physician is an INT type and a pure DARK element skills. Boosting the Physician's INT will greatly enhance its Magic Attack. Pumping your Physician's DARK Attack will also help boost the damage of your skills.
The amount of Magic Attack that your Physician have, will greatly increase the amount of Heal Shower recovery. Equipment that boost the INT, Magic Attack, and DARK Attack is a big MUST.

To help your Physician do her role, having a high HP, Defense, and Magic Defense is also important. In the regular FOUR MAN NEST, it is okay to focus on your DPS and attacks, but in EIGHT MAN RAID NEST, it is very important to make sure you can withstand any attacks without getting one-hit. The support role of Physician in RAID NESTS are very important.

Suggested Equipment:

Important Stats: INT / Magic Attack / Max HP / Defense / Magic Defense / Dark Attack
Other/Optional Stats: Critical / Critical Damage / AGI / Final Damage

For Starters:
- The most convenient is the Neris Equipment (Can be bought on the Black Smith or loot on 95 Dungeons) and enhance it to +20
- If you got enough gold or materials, you can upgrade your +20 Neris Equipment to Medea Equipment
- Unique Rune Dragon Equipment is also an option and can be upgraded to Medea Equipment even without enhancing it
- After getting Medea Equipment Tier 1 and enhance it to +20, you can set your goal on attaining the Medea Tier 2. This is the best starter equipment now.

Optional:
- You can get Legend Ice Dragon Equipment from Ice Dragon Nest or Legend Rune Dragon Equipment from Rune Dragon Nest, but this costs a lot.
- The best end game equipment is the Calypse Equipment which also cost a lot of gold.
- The Slayer Equipment that can be obtain by luck on Slayer Mode Nest.

Title: Title that boosts INT, Magic Attack or Dark Attack is a must.

Accessories:
- Skill Accessories (Mixed Infection, Disease, Poison Break, Auto Dispenser) Recommended for starters
- Legend Ice Dragon Accessories
- Legend Rune Dragon Accessories
- Genesis/Refined Accessories (BEST)
- Green Dragon Accessories (Unique for starters, Legend for end gears)

Heraldry:

- Health
- Life Vitality
- Iron Wall
- Tent
- Wind
- Fatal
Optional: Limitation, Ultimate, Attack

Optional: Wax CD


Talisman:

- Health
- Life Vitality
- Iron Wall

MAGIC ATTACK JADES (for boosting heal effect)

Necklace & Earrings: Same with Armors

Rings: Same with Weapons

*I usually use DARK JADES on my Weapons and MAGIC JADES on my Rings*

"This guide is still on work for clean ups, changes, and corrections"

Special Thanks to: Xenocho -Senpai for mentioning and correcting my mistakes. And also for adding important details for the guide. Hontouni~ Arigatou Gozaimasu!

[MilleFiyu]

*reserved*

[Saphie]

it's desu*

[MilleFiyu]

waaaaa gomen desuuu~ >w<

[Xenocho]

Hi Mille. Will there be more details under the underconstruction section?

also the skill tree cannot be seen

[MilleFiyu]

Hello Senpai!! Yah I was wondering about the Physician Revamp Section so I'm reserving one for it. Teehee ^_^" still new on forums so theres still a lot of mistake i make hahaha

[elvesguild]

Finally, an updated guide for physicians!! Thank you very much for this!

[MilleFiyu]

thank you too for the support, i will try to improve the guide more

[elvesguild]

Some questions/clarifications (mainly because I do not have access to DN right now so I cannot check it for myself, forgive me):

1. "Wax (Max) - for cooldown decrease."
Wax decreases the cooldown of all skills nowadays??

2. "Force Out (Max) - to maximize the damage of Mixed Infection (Class Mastery III)"
How does maxing the skill increase the Mixed Infection damage? I thought it's an additional 200% flat, no matter what the skill level of Force Out is?

3. "Summon Slime - the slime will mostly serve as the party ICE STACKER. You must summon the slime at 6 bubbles to get the Ice Attack."
I think I asked this back in CherryCredits forum but I cannot remember, sorry
So what if I had 4 bubbles and I summoned a Slime. It will not do ice attack, right?
What if I gained 6 bubbles a few moments after. Will the existing Slime do ice attack? Or do I have to resummon it?

4. "Cocktail - the alchemist buff, use this whenever you have 6 bubbles to obtain the highest effect of the buff."
Same question with #3. Will the number of bubbles subsequently acquired AFTER casting Cocktail add the buff effects? Or do I have to cast Cocktail again?

5. I do not get the Poison Slime behaviour that much. So if I understand that correctly:
a. Poison Slimes will generally do nothing except to home on a target and then explode, right? What triggers the explosion? Also, if I did not do the trigger, will it explode by itself?
b. Poison Pools are generated from Disease, Poison Strike, and Poison Pool?
c. Only the pool from Poison Strike and Poison Pool will generate slime?
d. Poison Break will cause the three poison pools (from #5b) to explode, thereby damaging the enemy and stopping the respawning of the Poison Slimes.
e. Will the Disease debuff increase the damage from Poison Pool/Poison Slime explosion?

6. Would you recommend a skill build that does not have Elemental Bubble Charging/Ice Palm/Magma Wave? That's what I have at the moment, but I don't think my DPS capabilities are optimised.

7. I don't think I will ever have access to RDN/IDN/Genesis accessories. Would you recommend Skill accessories (random stats) than Chiron accessories (flat increase in stats) for me?

8. For the upcoming Physician Revamp. I'm a bit excited about it yet at the same time, nervous. Do you think it will have a considerable effect on the skill builds that we have right now?

Thank you for the input! Once again, great guide!

[aberkadaber]

2. As shown on the pics above that 200% damage comes from the slime of force out that will explode upon being hit with mixed infection
3. Slimes gain additional attacks/element base on the amount of bubble used to summon it- 2: fire(min) 4: poison 6: ice,

5.
a. They'll just go boom when they're close to the enemy
b. The other awakening skill is called [Slime pool]
Thus a distinction should be made with poison pool (ult), poison pool (disease awk- the bubbling mess that spawn on hit), and the soon to be outdated slime pool (+the mini ver from poison strike)

[MilleFiyu]

ow yah, my big mistake, it was Slime Pool and NOT Poison Pool. I got mixed it up and I didn't realize the name was wrong. Thanks Senpai Xenocho

[elvesguild]

Thank you, all of you guys. I appreciate it very much!!

[MilleFiyu]

so to answer your questions,

1. to decrease the wax cooldown, the skill itself

2. force out cm3 *maximize* i used this word to emphasize how they must use the skill for, and it is to maximize the damage of mixed infection aside from the buff and debuffs you have.

3. what i mean by slime as an ice stacker, is because the most useful attack from the slime is the ice attack that freezes the enemies. this is very useful in a party or in a raid without elestra. everytime you summon your slime with 6 bubbles, it will automatically use the ice attack. so summoning them again and again for ice stack and sacrifice is its main purpose.

4.cocktail buff effect depends on the bubbles. 2 bubbles gives additional 50% int, 4 bubbles gives 33% recovery rate from healing skills, 6 bubbles gives 22% cooldown rate. using this skill in 6 bubbles, you will attain the 3 effects of the buff.

5. a. yes the poison slimes will automatically go and explode on its nearby target.
b. poison pool has 2 definitions: 1. Poison Pool SS 2. Poison Pool (Awakened Disease) The last one is SLIME POOL *my mistake*
c. yes
d. only the Poison Pool (Awakened Disease) will explode
e. sadly nope, only Poison Break and Mixed Infection has the effect
Note: altho i heard something before about poison stack? not so sure what it meant or if its still exist or beneficial

6. yah, if you mainly go only for the physician tree, your skills are less making you stand by while other skills are on cooldown. actually that is okay too if you're only aiming for the support role of the physician. I kindda want to post my skill build too but mine is pve/pvp hybrid type.

7. yes i recommend 90 or 93 skill accessories over chiron accessories. its okay to start with random stats until you have enough mats or gold to buy the perfect stats on each.

8. yes me too, im so excited. it will have a little effect on our skill build with the addition of the new skill and the enhancement of the physician skill damage. not so sure yet if the actual changes are good or bad (or nothing changes at all) so let's wait for it ^_^

[Saphie]

wa senpai
i got question regarding the skill build senpai
why u take magma wall and magma wave and the ice skills

[MilleFiyu]

yes in raid you can't use the skills much since we're mostly focused on supporting. but in some mech, physicians are also required to dps even a little. dont worry about wasting bubbles, i think its not that hard to replenish it by spamming injector, magma punch, love virus, disease and poison charging. the fire skills has decent damage, so you can use it while your main skills are on cd.

[Saphie]

>"but in some mech, physicians are also required to dps even a little"
this part here i believe you need near end game gears for this (still wont do much probably) and all dpsing should be left to the dps, they are capable of dpsing, thats their purpose. like you said, physicians are focus on supporting

>"the fire skills has decent damage"
poison strike can be used as filler too, as well as injector
injector is spammable too, can spam for both bubbles and dps
also, as a phy, ur fire% is much lesser than ur dark% too

>"so you can use it while your main skills are on cd"
the skills cd aint that long eh
main skill on cd, debuff process again, and more skills should be up alr
likewise, you can also spam injector

[MilleFiyu]

yah it isn't that long, but it is still useful in some occasions. overall it is still optional to get the fire skills.

[Xenocho]

Hi Mille. I've looked through the guide and found a few things which could be addressed to improve the content of this guide.

A few errors in this guide:
1. Elemental Bubble Charging - obtain 1 bubble from skills that does not give off bubble: Icing Mass,Ice Palm, Napalm Bomb
This is incorrect. Elemental Bubble Charging basically +1 bubble gain from Magma Punch, Ice Punch, Icing Mass, Ice Palm, Napalm Bomb. Skills which gain 1 bubble originally now gain 2 bubble, while 0 bubble gain becomes 1 bubble gain.

2. Chemical Bubble Charging - obtains 2 bubbles from poison and healing abilities: Injector, Poison Charging, Disease, Love Virus, Heal Shower
Similar to the above, this statement is incorrect. As the skill description says, it doubles the bubble gain; 1 bubble gain becomes 2 bubble gain. Since there are no Poison or Healing skills which do not give bubble, we cannot observe 0 bubble gain becoming 1 bubble gain.

3. Class Mastery III - boost the damage of Force Out by 700% and boost the damage of Mixed Infection by 200%.
The 2nd part of this sentence is incorrect. The explosion damage from the CM III slime is actually 200% of the Force Out hit damage.

4.Auto Dispenser - Always spam this skill whenever it is ready. It gives different set of 6 random items (Healing and Buffing) that will support your party.
I highly recommend to get +1 Skill Accessory for this skill to lower the cooldown and gives off 2 more items.
+1 to Auto-Dispenser does not reduce the CD of the skill.

A few comments on the content:
1. There is an overal lack of information on the skill descriptions provided. Personally, I prefer skills in table which show the damage and CD, but this is a personal preference. That way, more information can be shared and allows users to compare between skills.

2. Why is Poison Charging left at lvl 8 in the skill builds? This does not make any sense as skills should be left at 1, 6, 11 or 16.

3. Why so many skill rotations? Shouldn't there be the best way to rotate a skill to deal maximum damage to a target?

4. Not enough content on how to play a physician. In general, do you really need fire and ice skills to improve bubble gain when you can just spam Injector? Will you really run out of skills if you do not learn fire and ice skills?

The supporting role section also focuses mainly on description of skills and lacks tips on playing a physician. I think the following info can be useful: summon Slime with 6 bubbles could apply Ice debuff, keeping either PB EXi or PB EX for 1 cure for emergency purposes.

As for the Mini-DPS role, I think there is information lacking. What about Poison Strike and Slime Pool? Those also contribute a lot to DPS. If Magma Wave is very strong, it could also be mentioned here. Last but not least, sharing skill details for playing Phy as DPS will be very helpful.

That is all I have for now. I'll not comment on the gear section. Again, thank you for putting together a physician guide for the benefit of the forum.

[MilleFiyu]

aya, you're right senpai, theres still a lot of information to be added and sentences to be rephrased. thank you very much, this will help a lot ^_^ will be editing this and check this from time to time.

[Xenocho]

Here are some information which may be useful to the guide. I did not include Love Virus due to poor damage atm. However, I have included fire skills to compare them to dark skills. As mentioned above, do note that Dark ATK is usually higher than Fire or Ice ATK, so their final skill damage may be higher than shown below. Also, realistically, there is not enough SP to max fire skills without sacrificing dark/support skills.

[Saphie]

most important imo is the fact that injector can be spammed and in the same amount of time, it prolly does more dmg in total compared to the fire skills ww
and poison strike is also a good filler as while waiting for slime pool cd, you probably can use poison strike another 2-3 times before slime pool is up

also hi remmy xoxo

[MilleFiyu]

sugoiii senpai!! i cant make that kind of evaluation and presentation. thank you very much for this <3

[MilleFiyu]

the reason why i get the fire skills is because i'm very used to it already hehehe. and i think its not that bad. it is still optional in general.

[elvesguild]

Any tips/skill build for PvP in general?
(Sorry if this seems a bit offtopic. But if I'm not mistaken, going pure dark/poison skills isn't that good in PvP?)

[MilleFiyu]

hello, sorry for the late reply. yes, having pure dark/poison skill will be very hard. so having fire/ice skills are very important in pvp.
the skill builds i showed above is also applicable for pvp since i also play pvp *only sometimes now*
tips in pvp:
- distance is important, use wax, poison charging, forceout or disease to assure your distance from your enemy/s (adept is good on this since they have magma jump)
- make sure your love virus will hit the target (much better in teamplays, use love virus on a distance while they are clashing)
- avoid using poison strike (it is very dangerous if it doesn't hit)
- always spam your disease (your enemy/s will always avoid the poison pool *some players dont*)

[elvesguild]

Thank you MilleFiyu!!

I have another offtopic question:
Any particular uses of Ice Mass and Icing Punch in PvE? I had those skills before and I always cast them before DPSing, but since I resetted, I did not get those two skills (and I plan to leave them permanently). Does that sound viable?

[MilleFiyu]

most of the time, your ice skills will only serve as a filler or bubble charging. if you plan for a pure pve build, i think its okay too if you leave those skills unlearned.
i just have them since 50 cap, and i really love using those skills on different occasions, whether pve or pvp. overall it is still up to your convenience

and you're very welcome!

How long does the slime from CM3 last? wondering if Mixed Infection should be used right after Force Out.

[MilleFiyu]

The Slime from CM3 lasts for 4 seconds. This is enough time for you to cast the Mixed Infection and for the bubble to hit the slime. And yes, it should be casted right away.

Current Revamped Physician Bugs

So after trying the new Physician, I have seen some bugs in the skills and skill description.
Here are the following bugs I discovered:

1. Bubble Bubble Skill Description (As shown in the image below) *FIXED*



2. Love Virus does not giving any bubbles (Check the image below) *FIXED*
Currently having 1 Alchemy Bubble


After casting Love Virus, the Alchemy Bubble remains 1

3. Injector EX action speed buff is not shown in the Status Bar below your character's portrait. Also I think that there is no changes in your character's Action Speed after the buff is applied. (See image below) *FIXED*

Without Injector EX Buff
After Injector Ex Buff is applied, the movement speed remains the same. (You can't feel any action speed boost either)

[Dreamcatcher]

Thanks for this. Never realized that there is a bug with the new physician revamped skills

[MilleFiyu]

All bugs are already FIXED.
Gee, thanks ED

Hi Mille, thanks so much for your guide. I am an avid user of physician as well and find your guide super helpful in skill builds and skills rotational. I want to seek your guidance again for the new physician revamp. Below i have come up with a PVE skill build focusing mainly on pure dark attack side, what are your thoughts?

[MilleFiyu]

hello your skill build is actually okay, but ill still recommend you or consider to get or do:
- Air Bomb (Passive/Academic Tree)
- Force Out (Max for CM3)
- Hypnosis (Utility I-frame = useful when youre spamming injector and theres and incoming attack that you cant dodge while spamming)
- and lastly, you can leave Magma Punch at level 1 cause we only use it for debuff
thank you very much for the support

[Dreamcatcher]

Thanks mille, i will need to reset skills to get max force out and hypnosis, but wont be picking up air bomb as i seldom use it
