High Priest skills by role
Assumptio, Meditatio, and Basilica benefit every High Priest route. Support then adds Heal Light, Coluseo Heal, and Lex Aeterna for party recovery, cleansing, and a valuable damage window.
Battle needs Duple Light to attach Holy damage to its rapid hammer attacks. Exorcist uses Judex as its main advanced offensive spell while retaining the class's support utility.
| Build | Stat direction | Advanced focus | Recommended content |
|---|---|---|---|
| Support | DEX → INT | Heal Light, Coluseo Heal, Lex Aeterna | Dungeons, raids, GVG |
| Battle | AGI/LUK → STR | Duple Light and attack-trigger traits | Solo farming |
| Exorcist | DEX → INT | Judex and Holy-damage traits | AOE farming and magic damage |
Support High Priest equipment traits
Overhealing is the first level-70 weapon trait because it converts excess healing into a shield. Mater Misericordiae and Healing Light are strong follow-ups, but do not discard a high-quality Divine Healing trait simply because it comes from the earlier pool.
The finished support kit already contains shields, party damage reduction, two regular party heals, and a healing ultimate. Prioritize reliability and cooldown flow over stacking a redundant sixth emergency button.
Battle and Exorcist trait packages
- Exorcist: Auto Rebirth and Judex Cross are the core pair. Choose Heretic Judex for proc-based burst or Vulnerable Light for steadier Holy damage.
- Battle: Renovatio Hammer or Auto Light must be on the weapon. Add the stronger available option between Heretic Judex and Vulnerable Light.
- Battle's higher attack frequency gives Heretic Judex more chances to trigger, while Exorcist may prefer the consistency of Vulnerable Light.
Rune Engine and cards
Support should reach level-3 Holy Resonance, then choose Wind for faster casts and cooldowns or Earth for stronger personal survival. Exorcist uses Water and Fire for magic damage. Battle uses Wind and Water for ASPD and physical output.
Support spends card slots on healing, INT, DEX, HP, and defensive conversions. Battle wants STR, AGI, physical damage, CRIT, and ASPD. Exorcist wants INT, MATK, DEX, magic damage, and Holy damage. Keep encounter-specific race, size, and element cards for both damage builds.
Which High Priest build should you invest in first?
Support remains the best main build for accounts that join dungeons, raids, and guild content. Exorcist is the most efficient second build because it shares INT, DEX, magic gear, and many defensive resources with Support while clearing open-world groups quickly.
Battle is enjoyable and complete after its trigger traits are online, but it requires a more separate physical card and stat package. Treat it as the higher-cost alternative unless it is your primary playstyle.
Frequently asked questions
Which High Priest build is most wanted in parties?
Support is the most consistently requested route because its healing, shielding, cleansing, mitigation, and damage buffs directly increase group success.
What stats should Support High Priest use?
Prioritize DEX until important casts feel reliable, then invest in INT for healing, SP, and magic scaling. Gear and resonance determine the final balance.
Should Support replace Divine Healing?
Not automatically. Divine Healing from the earlier trait pool can remain stronger than a weaker level-70 option, so compare the actual trait quality and function.
What is the best second build for a Support High Priest?
Exorcist is the efficient second build because it shares INT, DEX, magic gear, and many defensive resources with Support.
