Hi, I’m new to the game.
To avoid a rude shock when leveling later, is it possible to complete Priest2, swap over to complete Paladin1, and back over to Priest 3?
If so, do I need to do the priest quest again after Paladin1?
Priest is just horrendous to grind with, which is why I wanted to grab Paladin for Smite ASAP. (Maybe I’m doing it wrong? Feel free to share any advice you may have to progress faster.)
Priest is actually one of the best grinders (part of the reason they are used for bots)… so if you think priest is bad your going to think everything is bad.
You can pick and choose class circles whenever you want. You could pick priest c1 at rank 2 and priest c2 at rank 6, doesnt matter. The quest you’re given will be the same one no matter when you decide to take it.
Priests don’t die easily so that’s perfect for botting, but the damage is really lacking…? I’m not sure what I can do about it at my level.
Ok, great. 
Maybe I wasn’t clear - do you need to re-take the priest quest at, say, rank 6, after you have changed to another class in between?
have you maxed your blessing attributes. They should be maxed around 50.
I’ve activated some, but not maxed it out. Will go work on that. Thank you.
Each circle of a class has it’s own unique quest.
You just pick the class or circle you want on the class advancement screen when you reach class level 15, and you get the quest given to you that corresponds to that circle of the selected class automatically. This works the same no matter what your previous rank was.
And as mentioned, Priest has some of the simplest yet most effective ways of dealing damage. Blessing with Sacrament and the Cafrisun set : smooth leveling.
That should make things much easier as the attribute maxed gives you +100 per blessing hit so if you have sacrament on thats +200 each attack.
What @thebloodyaugust said is important, but remember classes such as Priest and Monk are sustainable damage not burst damage. Yes, we kill bosses slower, but when you’re dead, even burst damage has no place. If you want burst damage and minimal support, I suggest you look at other builds.

[/quote]The advancement quests are not related at all between subclasses. Whether you take a Cleric2 at rank 2 or at rank 7, you still have to do the advancement quest. I’m not sure what you were expecting.
In addition, for grinding, you want your priest to have cafrisun set. With sacrament, that’ll be +300 each Z hit.

[/quote]Priest1 are not for survivability but for extra damage. Priest2 is for survivability. Those bots are there to ks people better.

[/quote]I can vouch for this. At low levels, Cleric2/Diev builds are horrible for me because they rely on burst damage, and I gotta chug down SP pots and if I have no SP then I might as well run around instead of whacking enemy with my terrible melee. Melee of STR builds at early levels can’t beat maxed blessing.
as a priest using this, it outputs crazy damage.
+5 thresh sword (lucky random drop, use what you got)
cafrisun set
15+ Aspersion from a Pardoner
10+ Sacrament from a Pardoner
your own maxed Blessing
mobs just cannot get out of your way fast enough.

15+ Aspersion from a Pardoner[/quote]Sounds like I need to start investing on buying this. As a Priest I’d always been too lazy to buy the buffs.
if you’re too lazy to get the buffs… there’s basically no reason to play a priest in the first place.
As a Priest, leveling, your priority should be Blessing
if you’re going for Pardoner, to sell buffs, your priority should be Aspersion and Sacrament… because Blessing is a waste of money. (150 hit limit, ew…)
They really need to make a modified value for that when you sell it via pardoner. Even like 500 would be nice
I think you got my point wrong.
I’m lazy to BUY the buffs from the spellshop, not get the buffs for myself.
I have Blessing and Sacrament but I left aspersion at 1 and never use it.
You are saying that if one wants to grind, buying Aspersion lv15 is a good investment. But I never bother buying Aspersion and always use my own Sacrament and Blessing because they end up cheaper even if after I do the maths (20 Gylostis is cheaper than 1h sacrament price)
So I’m nodding my head at the fact that I should spend 2k or so buying 1h lv15 aspersion buffs.
We’re on the same page now?
Like I said, I’m new to the game. Like, I haven’t even been on for 24 hours yet.
I started in Orsha - how do I get the Cafrisun set? Since it’s a drop from the Klaipedia Region.
Yes, I love how I have a crapton of SP. (Right now, my stats are 20 CON, 18 INT and 20 SPR.) But it’ll be a while till I can max my blessing. :X
Don’t worry we’re just infodumping on you.
If you want to farm it, go to Klapedia after buying the Warp Scroll from Item Merchant. It’s not that hard.
I only realized about this set after I was lv60 or so, so I bought it from the Market Manager.
On stat distribution, make sure you know what you want to spend it on. SPR is for pure support. Most non-support builds don’t spend on SPR. I am a Monk and I never spend on SPR. CON is important, but if you want to go Pally3, make sure you spend a healthy amount in STR/DEX. But I’ve seen STR/INT/SPR Pally builds. Just don’t spend a bit in each just because you think it can be useful.
On blessing, don’t worry, just spend money on it slowly. I think I was lv80 by the time my blessing is maxed. But I’ve seen lv130s running around with less than +40 blessing (which is bad)
EDIT: Oh also, if you want to go Pally3, consider not taking Priest and going Cleric2>Diev or something. I’ve seen a lot of Priest2/Pally running around but this forum seem to favor Cleric2/Diev/Pally more. Just consider the pros and cons, you don’t have to be a traditional RO-style cleric.
ahhhhh lol. now i’m getting what you mean.
yes, spending money on Pardoners in town is definitely worth the investment.
i mean, i’m only lv 60, and it still only takes me a couple of minutes to earn back the money i spent on it.
you’re probably done for Con and Int, then… unless you have a long-term plan for a Caster cleric.
don’t overspend in stats that are giving you limited returns.
yes, a buttload of HP is nice… but you also have Heals when you need.
you should go to the Item Merchant, and buy a Klaipeda Warp Scroll
this warps you to Klaipeda city, and you can start the entire quest line from there as well, and “double up”.
Its not a overly expensive set either. On the klapedia server you can get it for 40-60k which might sound like alot at your lvl but priests can wear the set to lvl ~170ish some people push it to 200

[/quote]Wat? In Orsha server it’s less than 30k for the whole set in average…

[/quote]lv130, got 200k under my account and no Arde. Sometimes I wanna cry at my careless spending.
I have to be careful in further spending…
