The Build

Though there are tons of different build for a character, they are mainly classified into 3 areas - Damage Type, Tanking Type and Hybrid Type.

Damage Type



MAG STR Priest - pump your strength according to the minimum requirement for magical armor and rest of stats into magic. Leave your vit and dex at 5.

This style of priest is sort of a mimic of mage. It has extremely high nuking power. It's main weakness is hp and low def. Hence magic priest works better in party as compared to solo-ing. If a party is not present, such priest can always turn towards kiting for solo. But in PvP, players are not dumb enuff to aim the tanker instead of a MAG Priest which can be killed in 2 to 3 hits. Hence you will require equipment that adds hp (unless you are such a hardcore fan of nuking power, than go for more nuking power for ur equipment) to offset ur weakness.

PROS: High nuking power and healing power.
CONS: Low hp



Tank Type



VIT MAG STR Priest - pump your strength and intelligence according to the minimum requirement for magical armor, rest of points into vitality. leave your dex at 5.

This type of priest has the highest tanking power but at the same time has the lowest nuking/healing power. But the tanking capability is only limited to magical skill since your physical def is still extremely low, it is highly recommended to use light armor instead of magical armor for this build if archer is more common than warrior. But please note that magical armor give you bonus to moving speed (20% if not wrong) which can prove to be really effective when running from mage/warrior/beast/fox (but has no effect against archer since they run... real fast it also has no effect on a warrior that activated his sprint skill and start dashing to u like some insane guy).

PROS: High hp pool and higher physical def
CONS: low nuking power and healing power



Hybrid Type - Recommended Build



MAG VIT STR Priest - pump your strength according to the minimum requirement for magical armor, pump your magic according to the minimum requirement for magical weapon, rest of points into vitality. Leave your dex at 5.

This build grants the priest about 30 to 40% more hp pool as compared to a MAG Priest. But it also cause priest to lose about 20% nuking/healing power. But in a guild fight or PvP what is important is not ur nuking or healing power, it is to survive as long as possible and aid in the combat.

PROS and CONS: it has no pros and no cons since it is a hybrid.



Out of the 3 build, i strongly recommend the hybrid build. Reason is simply because damage is reduced by 75% when in PvP hence having a pure dmg build isn't really that wise. Considering the 2nd fact that most priest main job is not to kill in a PvP/guild war which thus reduce the advantage for having a pure dmg build.

The chart below is for the hybrid type I recommended:

how to use the chart; pump your stats to the value shown at specific levels, the levels that are displayed is the level when u can buy new equipments. obviously the icon displayed beside the levels show the equipment that can be bought. for e.g. at lvl 8, u must get ur str to 7, int to 16 and con to 27. u will be able to equip ur pants/skirt at level 8 and a weapon for level 8 too (lvl 1, 8 and 14 are quest weapon, lvl 20 also has a quest weapon which is not shown in the chart, that weapon can be used till level 30 or so).

I've played on the MY version that has Int and Con and such, but i'm not sure which is Int and which is con. I know the bottom two are str and dex, But i'm not sure which is con and which is Int on the top, PWI changed it to Vit and Magic

Vit = Con
Magic = INT

Hey, love the charts, they come in as a great help. One question though, I'm as new as it gets to this game. And having browsed the forums it seems that most guides focus on either good PVP builds or good full healing builds. I'm desperately looking for a middle road, and i think that this hybrid build is the closest I've gotten. But... my focus is 100% PVE. Does that make a differance? My dreamscenario would be that I'm able to solo the game (im not afraid of neither accepting challanges nor failing them occasionally), but I would also like to be able to join groups and not let anyone down by beeing a weak-*** healer. Hmm... any input would be greatly appreciated.

Hybrid Build is good for that, it give you more HP to tank monster and not die at the same time it give you magic to kill and heal your self for that soloing. I solo myself with hybrid build, and it's worked out great.

appreciated, ill go for that. And ill get you something nice for christmas

very helpfull..thanks a lot

ok i didnt understand much but i know enuff to get started now lol

for the hybrid build, each level you get 5 points, what stats should i put the 5 points into each level?
