Role

The Priest is the Acolyte's second job. Priests keep the party alive and strong: Sanctuary heals your side on a 5 × 5 area, Kyrie Eleison puts up a shield against hits, Impositio Manus, Gloria and Magnificat strengthen the party, Resurrection brings the fallen back. Against undead and demons they have Turn Undead, Magnus Exorcismus and Aspersio, a holy weapon. Acolyte skills stay.

Job change

  • Where: the Prontera church; Bishop Paul accepts the application.
  • Requirements: an Acolyte at Job Lv 40 or higher. Spend all skill points on Acolyte skills: unspent points don't carry over to the second job, and the Bishop won't change your job while you have them.
  • Pilgrimage: visit Father Rubalkabara (north-east of the Prontera ruins), Sister Mathilda (the desert north of Morroc) and Father Yosuke (the lake north-west of Prontera). Each sets your respawn point next to them. At Job Lv 50 you can skip the pilgrimage.
  • Spiritual training: Peter S. Alberto takes you to the test hall. Hall 1: 13 zombies in 5 minutes; the corridor: turn down four tempters; hall 3: six mummies. The training is solo, one Acolyte in the hall at a time; if you die or leave, you start over.
  • Vow: Sister Cecilia asks eight questions; one mistake and you take the vow again.
  • Reward: a Book, or a Bible at Job Lv 50.

The quest log walks you through every step and shows who to go to.

Stats

Main Extra
INT DEX, VIT

A healer wants INT (Heal and Sanctuary power, SP) and DEX (faster casting), VIT to survive. A battle Priest with a mace goes STR and Mace Mastery.

Tips

  • The second job's "Skills" window has "First" and "Second" tabs.
  • Sanctuary, Magnus Exorcismus and Resurrection use a Blue Gemstone, Aspersio uses a Holy Water (the Acolyte's Aqua Benedicta makes it). Carry spares.
  • B.S. Sacramenti needs two more Acolytes or Priests at your sides.
  • Lex Aeterna doubles the next damage to the target: cast it before the party's big hit.
  • The quest skill Redemptio (raises every fallen party member nearby) is taught by Sister Linus in the church to a Priest with Resurrection: 30 Holy Water and 20 Blue Gemstone. It doesn't always work; the chance grows with Job Lv and Resurrection level, and a failure costs one of each.
