[HELP] My Support Battle Priest

Hey there, faithful cleric fellows!

I’ve been looking over specs for this build for a few weeks now. I am currently playing on Orsha, a C1P2, going for C3.

The current look of the build is like this:

Explanations and personal takes

  • Cleric - self explanatory skill distribution
  • Priest
  • Aspersion lvl 10 - Def buff, damage and most of all, synergy with Aspergillum. I would put it at lvl 15, but I had to take point off of something to put in Stone Skin.
  • Monstrance lvl 1 - Insane DEX buff and poor scaling on higher lvls.
  • Blessing lvl 5 - keeping it as low as possible to save points for later. I might respec after rank 5 to lower it to lvl 3. Attributes are very important here.
  • Ressurection lvl 2 - minimum requirement for Revive attribute.
  • Sacrament lvl 10 - Holy damage plus synergy with Last Rites.
  • Revive lvl 2 - Still unsure about this level. If I lower Blessing to lvl 3, I’ll defitely bump this, but not decided on what other skill I could forego to bump up Revive. Duration attribute is very important
  • Mass Heal lvl 10 - awesome skill, not ground based like Heal, no reason to have less than max points in it.
  • Exorcism lvl 0 - looks cool, but it’s not what I’m going for here.
  • Stone Skin lvl 5 - Earth Tower Party Survivability 101
  • Chaplain (never played a Chaplain, all speculative comments)
  • Last Rites lvl 5- looks cool and I like the scaling with Sacrament and increased damage under 40% HP. I will max the attribute to increase the HP cap to 50%.
  • Deploy Cappela lvl 5 - keeping 100% uptime in Stone Skin for tough boss fights, and every other buff at the same time! Just looks like a straight up awesome skill.
  • Magnus Exorcismus lvl 0 - same reason as for Exorcism lvl 0.
  • Aspergillum lvl 5 - More holy damage? That’s my jam.
  • Krivis
  • Really unsure about my rank 6 choice. Going Krivis mostly for Daino, plus some secondary cool buffs. Maybe I should drop Aukuras and go for Zaibas, purely for attacking purposes. Not the focus of this character, though.
  • Kabalist - the number one reason for this choice is Ein Sof, which will retardedly increase my HP and thus, retardedly increase my Mass Heal amount! The synergy explains itself. Also, Ax7 looks cool for keeping me alive. I got one point into each of the “mathematical” skills until I can realy grasp their utility, and Merkabah has a really nice damage.

A few considerations
Attributes are very important on this build. Plate Mastery, Enhance Blessing, Enhance Mass Heal, Increase Duration of Revive, Last Rites, and etc. I will spend a lot of money on learning attributes.

I have been always playing with friends, and even when they’re not online, I am having zero trouble finding a party.
I am going a little organic with the stats distribution. I am lvl 62 and I have 60ish int, and 30is CON/SPR. Really could use a few tips here. I might just go for a INT/SPR build with a good amount of CON.

I really like how this build looks tough, and to me, it fulfils the role of a Paladin better than the Paladin itself in this game.

What are your thoughts, tips, tricks, insights, leveling tips, equipment recommendations, etc? Whatever you have to say, I’ll happilly consider! Just keep in my that I don’t want to go away from the main concept of the character.

Looks like a finished product to me.
Though you shouldn’t go for SPR albeit it’s helpful with skills like aspersion

So, I’m going off what I’ve read, primarily, but here’s my 2 cents:

A lot of people heavily advocate going Cleric circle 2 for the extra heal squares. If you’re going to skip this for Krivis, you may want Plague Doctor over Kabbalist to be able to keep your party alive.

However…it’s really hard to say exactly how much healing is needed, so you may be fine with this build, but that would be one area to be careful of, at least.

I agree with you. This was part of my research, and I’ve learned that SPR scales well with some buffs, mostly Stone Skin. But you’re right. I might just go INT/CON.


Man, that decision is what’s killing me. I didn’t wanna go C2 on Rank 6 just because of the extra heal squares. But I might. If the game gets all that much tougher when I’m reaching rank 6 level, I will drop Krivis and go straight for Daino scrolls.

Also, why do you say Plague Doctor is better for keeping the party alive?

Yea, I figure I’ll wait until C6 to choose either Cleric or Krivis since I’m going cleric, priest x 3 and PD for sure. I figure by that time I’ll know whether the extra heal tiles are worth it.

As for why PD, it’s because of Healing Factor, which looks pretty strong from the vids I’ve seen:
