Want to maximize the damage of Aspergillum
To max Asperlligum damage,
INT increases your magic attack
SPR increases Aspersion damage
But cleric stat bonus provides STR and INT as class rank bonus(10% per rank), so going INT will give you more DPS with Asperlligum overall. (Actually your total DPS, not just Asperlligum)
Thanks i will reroll now coz im con/spr 
If you get full blessing you may do more damage overall with SPR

You absolutely want to take SPR over INT, due to Blessing primarily. Your damage comes from Blessing proccing on all your lines of damage, not the lines themselves.

I would recommend Con/Spr over Con/Int, mostly because you have skills that scale with Spr like Stone Skin and Blessing scales with Spr 3 times more than Int.
Remember you have Sacrament āandā Last Rites, improving your Blessing is more beneficial to you, since it adds more damage to each individual hit of you basic attack and Spr still adds some damage to Aspergillum.
Since youāre going Chaplain, youāre going to be all about auto-attacks, so youāll want to increase the damage of your overall auto-attack combo, rather than just Aspergillum. Look around the forums, a Chaplain is more efficient with Spr than Int.

Although that being said, Iād not recommend INT chap over SPR chap. Going int, surely, will max out your DPS, going SPR will lower that DPS by a little but will provide you more Support Capability, like āStone Skinā, remember that end game contents monsters hit really hard.
Iād sacrifice my DPS for a little for just a strong Stone Skin.
This is absolutely wrong. SPR offers more damage than INT.

is it ok to not have resu? coz i max aspe, blessing and stone skin, lvl5 mass heal and lvl 4 revive? am i noob coz i dont take resu?
INT will increase you damage, SPR will increase your buffs.
so int increases your aspergillium damage, not spr, so if youre looking for apergillium dmg, go int. hope this helps.
i would go a little spr ( like 50-100) then a little con (like 50-100) then rest int.
and i would take ressuerect.
and spr will not increase your aspergillium damage

Sad to say no points left now, level15 aspe, 15 blessings, 5 mass heal, 4 revive, 1 sacra, 5 stone skinā¦
Spr does increase Aspergillum dmg since Spr affects Aspersion dmg.
Aspersion gets bonus dmg from Spr the same way skills like Cure and Zaibas get bonus dmg from Int. So Spr does in fact increase Aspersion dmg, although not as much as Int would.

I would recommend getting a skill reset and get 0 Aspersion, unless you plan to use the lvl 15 Aspersion for the defence buff.
The reason I say that is because Aspergillum will automatically use level 1 Aspersion even though you havenāt learned it and you can still increase itās damage through the Enhance attribute from the Priest Master.
If youāre just leveling Aspersion for damage then thatās not a great idea, because the flat amount of damage you gain from leveling it up is very very small compared to the utility of leveling up other skills.
At the moment I have:
Aspersion 0 (Which Aspergillum uses 1 by default.)
Blessing 15
Resurrection 1
Sacrament 10
Revive 4
Mass Heal 10
Stone Skin 5
However Iām going to get a skill reset and make the following changes:
Resurrection -> 5
Mass Heal <- 5
Mostly because Mass Heal healing a little less is worth it for the faster cast on Resurrection, since itās a single cast in an area in from of you.
Also see this thread:
You get more damage from spells with Int, but you get more damage with auto-attacks from Spr. Make your decision after reading through that, good luck with your Chaplain.

My reason for it is because the higher you level it, the more Holy damage it adds to each line, which also increases the amount of holy damage Last Rites adds per line.
Iāve done some testing and found Last Rites adds approximately 25% more Holy damage (rounded up or down where applicable) than Sacrament. So at level 10 Sacrament (+40 Holy damage), Last Rites adds +50 holy damage. Turn on Divine Might or get a Sacrament Gem and level 11 Sacrament adds +43 Holy damage with Last Rites adding +54 Holy damage.
Like I said in my post before, I would recommend dropping Aspersion to 0, since Aspergillum will use level 1 by default, and then max Resurrect and Sacrament. Youād have 1 point left over, so if you want you could get level 1 Aspersion just to cast for the defence buff if you wanted.
If you really want to level Aspersion a little higher, you can bring Sacrament to 5, that way itās duration matches Last Rites so you can cast both at the same time.
Itās your character, so do what you really want. Just research everything before you reset your skills.
Since the exorcise will be fixed to work well with magnus later, this adds more reason to go INT instead of SPRā¦ Also, due to the bonus of 10% each rank making a total 100% INT bonus , (asuming final rank is 10), then you can roughly count the 0.02 scaling of Blessing as double insteadā¦ which is 0.04 vs 0.06. Not that much difference as initially presented, plus you get more bonus like more healing and more magic damage.
What sandwich saidā¦ Magnus is a big flashy AoE now. Vids we got of it are pre-280s doing 150k dmg to packs of demons in one Magnus. Thatās pretty decent. So you could go with chap and then for later ranks support it with another matk class.
But most of what news weāre getting from kToS doesnāt mention chaps. KToS seems to be more focused on the Krivis Taoist/Druid and Bokor Plague doctor builds.
Sorry if that doesnāt help much. Here are the links to the vids thanks to @arkgolf from the kToS thread:
These changes were in just the last patch. So there maybe some theorycrafting and builds coming out of it.
I read somewhere that hidden classes (and therefore its changes) wont be mentioned in patch notes at all.
Iām talking about the the theorycrafting and meta builds. We have dataminers that keep detailed information on all the classes. You would have to insulate yourself from the forums and websites like tosbase or os-kr.neet.tv to avoid hearing about changes to existing hidden classes or implementations of new ones.
