Best DPS God?

[Vandiyan]

<DIV>Just looking for the best diety to follow for pure DPS as a Monk.  I started Marr but that tends to give more to Monks that tank.  I usually only tank in regular groups and not on T7 raids.  </DIV>

<DIV>If you want Pure DPS, the only option you have is to exile and follow Rallos Zek.</DIV>

Sol Ro would be nice if we had more attacks that deal heat damage.  From what I understand, Brell has some pretty okay stuff for folks that go both ways.  But yeah.  The evils got the good ones, it seems.  *snicker*  I do like Valorous Guard though, if only because this little midget honor guard comes out and beats on things for a few seconds.  Plus, the AE stun on that is nice for when we get too many non-linked adds.Cusahorn's right though- if you want the best dps god for melees, you'll have to exile and go Zek.  Even though the pet is a fat baby in a diaper.  Er.  Little giant.  Yeah.  Little giant.<div></div>

Thanks for the replies.  I don't plan on betraying so I will have to stick with either one of the "good" Gods or "neutral" Gods.

I recommend Marr highly.  His quests are something of a pain, but the blessings and miracles are nice.  Just be sure to read the fine print.  The second miracle is a 75% heal on anyone but you in your group, at the cost of 50% of your health.  The third miracle is an AE stun + nice group heal, but you don't get healed at all.  The final miracle is a ward that absorbs all damage from ten attacks.  The cloak and pet are nice though- +str/wis on the cat and +str on the cloak, iirc.Quellious would be a good roleplay choice for a monk, but the miracles/blessings are things like mezzes and detaunts.  The pet is +wis, which is nice for resists.  It looks cool, even though I have NO effing clue what it is.<div></div>

<DIV>The first Quellious miracle isn't too bad. 15% increase in duration on all your combat arts, DoTs and attacks for the duration of the spell.</DIV>

Brell is ok for dps. (look there for a list : http://www.eq2i.com/articles/Brell_Serilis )<div></div>

<P>couldn't you just like go exile...pick up rallos cloak...</P> <P>then get qeynos faction back up and go home?</P>

[Vandiyan]

Yeah but if I exile I loose all of my master spells and probably the relic armour that I already have.  So that isn't an option.

[morningmists]

well for someone who doesn't care about the masters, or doesn't have any...would what i asked be possible?

<div></div>To have an evil god as your diety you only have to become exile. That means you stay as a monk with all your master spells etc. Its only if you finish betraying by doing a load of faction quests that you lose your spells and monk specific stuff. There are downsides to being exile, you have mo house and cannot use your shared bank slots...a few other I think but I don't know what. Oh and unless its been changed I don't think you can use other peoples altars,whcih would mean you can't get miracles or blessings <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> <div></div><p>Message Edited by MadBarman on <span class=date_text>12-22-2006</span> <span class=time_text>03:46 PM</span>

<div></div><div></div>Aside from miracles, which are used rarely due to favor being a pricey commodity, you only have the cloak and pet to boost DPS on a regular fight-to-fight basis.Marr has the best melee DPS cloak.  The cloak of Valor has a proc that causes you to grow in size by 40%, while your DPS is increased by 15% and your STR is increased by 50 for 30 seconds.  The pet also gives a STR buff.The cloak is very difficult to obtain, compared to most other god cloaks.  You have to work for it.<div></div><p>Message Edited by AcidicBlob on <span class="date_text">12-23-2006</span> <span class="time_text">05:57 PM</span></p><p>Message Edited by AcidicBlob on <span class=date_text>12-23-2006</span> <span class=time_text>05:58 PM</span>
