Written by me on a day of school that i was just plane bored
Starting: All right as u all know BW priests are UBER but there is just a few starting procedures that are needed to be followed in creation on your BW priest.
Starting Race: Elf (of course)
Starting Class: Healer (duh)
Starting Runes: 1.Lucky (This is a must!)
2.Lightning Reflexes (Must have)
3.The other +10 DEX if u want
Because of the hybrid nature of this class you WILL be short on points!!!!!!!!!! Which means that you will not have all your necessary skills trained before R5 unless you have a buffbot, which would save a bunch of augmentation trains.
Being a BW priest means your not going to be taking out many flyers because you’re on ground with ground weapons and they are not. There is ways however to fight them however but that will be discussed at a later time.
Now is time for the fun part of the template………. Figuring out where to put all those trains and ability points!
Ability Points: All ability points need to go into DEX mostly and the rest in INT (for those who want to proc) or into CON (blade weavers need CON a lot because of their low stamina pool). After you max DEX, which should be around 160 with both starting DEX runes taken at creation you can either put the rest of your ability points into another DEX rune or into CON and INT.
Trains:
Medium Armor-MAX THIS OUT! (Least have 140% this is for defense)
Sword- 110%
Blade Weaving- 110-120% (Higher the better because it increases dmg)
Benediction- 69% (For Summon)
Restoration- 70-80% (Trains in this because of the 2 Stam Heals)
Theurgy- 63% (For sanction)
Abilities: Deciding what abilities to train are based on what the person really wants. But to be good in PVP, GVG, and PVE there is really one path to go.
1.Blessing of Health-GM
2.Blessing of Dexterity-GM
3.Blessing of Protection-GM
4.Sanction-GM (15 second stun, a must have for BW priest)
5.Blessed Alacrity-GM
6.Holy Righteousness-GM
7.Sacred Rejuvenation-8 (For group % stam heal)
8.Benediction of Rejuvenation-1
9.Sacred Healing-1
10.Divine Recovery-1 (Cast and sit for fast healing)
11.Prayer of Haste-10
The rest of your points that you want to spend on abilities could be put into the BW techniques such as find weakness. You can see why this is a hard-pressed points template now eh?
PVP: There are many ways for a BW priest to go about in PVP battles. There is however, some classes you should stay away from until you are sure you can beat them. These classes are Barbs, HA warriors, HA crusaders, and fighterlocks. There are ways to beat these classes, just takes a group to get their health a little lower for you.
The classes that take a little more time and concentration are the flying classes. There are a few ways to go about defeating them just might take a while. First rush the flyer and force them up into the air because you will be to uber for them on the ground. When they fly up you cast sanction, flip on Prayer of Haste, and then make a run for it. DON’T RUN AWAY just stay out of their casting range. They will eventually run out of stam and then they are yours for the taking.
Barbs are a lot more trouble for you than Flyers. To fight a barb with his HP full is kind of dumb on your part. But if u must fight a barb with full HP bar then heres what to do. First cast sanction and start hacking away be sure to Power Block when the sanction is almost up. After that you can either cast Grasp of the all Father (Root) or wait for his stun immunity to run off or just plain run (Grasp of the all Father is breakable by the barb, its only useful when your fighting a dumb barb). But the easiest way to beat a barb is to have someone lower his health for you then you will win no doubt.
High Defense Crusaders and Fighterlocks are those 2 classes you just don’t even want to try to mess with unless you have group support. But if it’s a healer sader, go for it and use the stun power block tactics.
GVG: What ive found easiest in GVG is to not charge with the other tanks but stay in front of the casters and sneak up on enemy healers or casters because they stand no chance against you. After you finish one then go to another. Just note that the enemy will notice you soon and come for you when this happens, stun and run till they give up. Just be cautious on what you do, pick your targets and not rush anyone you see.
That is all for now on the BW priest template. Have fun with it and use your BW priest wisely because a good BW priest is widely known for their combat skills.
