Tournament High Priest Part II: Equipments and Tournament Agenda
This is a sequel to my post on some useful stats and skills for the High Priest jobclass in Ragnarok Online. In this post we will talk about equipments and other tips on how to power play your High Priest. As in the first part, we have Skeelo, a Philippine Ragnarok Online High Priest with tournament experiences, as resource person.
AS: What are the recommended priest equips for tournaments when there is a no-boss card, no immune, limited potions rule? Discuss the cards and the equips you recommend.
Skee: For headgear, the recommended equipment is either Poo Poo Hat or Feather Beret. Any headgear actually, as long as it reduces damages taken from demi humans by a percentage, example 10%. You can also use Drooping Kitty that gives 15 Magic Defense and tolerance against frozen status.
For armor, Silk Robe is the best because of its additional 10 Magic Defense, not to mention a slot where you can compound a card suitable for you in PVP, WOE or Tournament. For Weapon, rod is very useful when compounded with four cards of Drops Cards or Fabre Cards depending on your build. If your Priest is lacking in Vit or HP due to excess of other stats, a quadruple carded rod will be useful in battle or leveling.
- I recommend you compound 4 pieces of Fabre Cards.
- And, for lessening the casting time, Drop Cards
For shield, a slotted buckler must be compounded with a Thara Frog Card because it gives 30% less damage taken from demi humans. For your garment, a Muffler with a Raydric Card is the best for tournaments since most of the damage that you’re gonna take is a neutral property.
For Footgear, I recommend slotted shoes compounded with Matyr Card for a better boost of HP and SP or you can also use a Crystal Pumps to protection against frozen status (useful since Frost Jokes and Storm Gust are widely used in tournaments).
For accessories, Hiding Clip or Hiding Rosary is best, depending also on the rules of the tournament. If hiding is restricted, A no-slot Rosary or a Nimble Rosary will do, and will protect from frozen Status because of the +5 Magic Defense. Zerom Card will at least lessen the time and delay of casting support skills.
AS: In a 2 on 2 PVP battle, What is a priest’s best choice of other character to support? Why?
Skee: A Wizard. This jobclass is very powerful but they have low HP and killing them is very easy, so they need support the most.
Wizards can also dictate the outcome of the battle because of their magical spells, support spells and status spells such as Storm Gust, Frost Diver, Frost Nova, Garbantein and Napalm Vulcan. These are only some of the reasons why they are very important, especially in a tournament. They can at least hold or freeze a bunch of opponents, making it easy for team mates to pick off the enemies one by one.
