Our resource person for this round of tips on how to use a priest in tournament level Ragnarok Online playing is Skeelo, a.k.a. NastyGirl, playing a priest character in Philippine Ragnarok Online for 5 years. If you want to jobchange into a priest but don’t know how to, here’s the link to our guide on jobchanging from acolyte to priest.

Part I: Stats and Skills

AS: Hi Skee. So which priest skills are most useful during guild battle?
Skee: Hi Alessa. There are many! But the two must-have skills for a support priest are Safety Wall and Sanctuary. These and the rest of the other skills make your guild or partymates more stable during battle, whether in offense or defense.

AS: Is high Vitality still important in a Party Priest?
Skee: Vitality is very important not only to a priest but to all classes in Ragnarok, because the higher your Vit is, the more immunity you have to Stun and Silence. Not to mention the fact that it gives good defense as well as being capable of surviving in long battles.

AS: What skills should not be forgotten when building a tournament style priest? Why?
Skee: A tournament-style priest MUST have the following skills, and more importantly, must assign hotkeys to access these skills quickly:

• Status Recovery
• Blessing
• Lex Aeterna
• Suffragium and
• Kyrie Eleison.

I did not include Heal and Increase Agility as the most important skills because party mates in a tournament have healing potions. Casting Increase Agility on all your party mates only wastes the time of casting other support buffs particularly when in a tournament, when the time pressure is high and all important status buffs must be cast before the main clash is on.
