Darza’s Dominion Apothecary Class Guide

This guide will be showing you some of the best tips on how to use the Apothecary class in Darza’s Dominion.

Introduction

Apothecary is a healer-focused support class.

Their equipment consists of a Bow, Leather Armor, and a Healing Mortar as the ability.

The main topics I will be covering in this guide are Equipment, Tips, and Mortars.

Equipment

Bows

Know that since Apoth uses a bow, their damage will be pretty bad early on. If you want to get loot as an Apothecary:

• Upgrade your bow as soon as possible
• Max out Attack and Dexterity
• Try to not get into Dungeons having 10+ players inside

Currently, the state of Tiered Bows is pretty bad in this game. You should try to get a Tier 8-10 Bow as soon as possible.

The best bows in the game are the Unique-Tier Bows. However, since Unique items are extremely rare, you will have to likely grind out essences or buy them from another player.

• Ominous Arebalest would easily replace a Tiered Bow
• Cadaverous Greed is the one you are most likely to get. Exchanges rate of fire for high damage and range. You should still keep a Tiered Bow for Crowd Clearing even if you get this Bow
• Scorch Recurve can make enemies Bleed, but with less range and one shot. Should be used as a secondary bow.

Mortars

When the Apothecary uses a Mortar, a ring of particles will spawn on your cursor. After a second or two, a grenade-like particle will come down and everyone in that circle will get healed.

In my opinion, just keep using the Starter Tier (Tier 0) Mortar as it is the most mana efficient. Only a measly 40 mana cost for a 70 heal is very very good. However, if you want to, you can keep a higher-tiered Mortar around in your inventory and use it when your health is extremely low.

There is a Unique Mortar known as the Venomous Pestle that can Paralyze enemies, but it is only a 175 mana cost and the Paralyze lasts 2 seconds. I would only really use it if you don’t need heals and have to stop a boss from moving.

Leather Armor

Tiered Leather is good enough. If you want to, you can go for the Unique Leathers.

• If you want to spam your ability more, get the Cicipalti Hauberk.

Rings

Generally just depends on what you want to focus on.

• The most recommended one is WIS rings as it will further boost your MP regen and you can get more Mortar heals in.
• MP ring will only get you an extra initial Mortar use
• For general survival, you can use HP / ARM / VIT ring
• ATK/DEX rings can help newer players get loot more easily

Tips

Aiming the Mortar

• It is important to keep in mind that the Mortar Circle spawns on your MOUSE CURSOR POSITION. If you are not in that circle, you will not be healed. The range of the mortar is pretty big, so it should not be hard to master using it.
• If you are constantly moving, aim it at where you are going to be. This might be hard to do when you’re moving from all sorts of angles.
• If you are rushing a dungeon, aim the Mortar a bit of a distance ahead of you. Sometimes you might have to slow down to be in the circle.
