Priest
The priest is a cloth armored class which specializes in a staff with long ranged supportive healing capabilities. Power granted by the blessing of Shakan to enhance their powers and great worshipers of Yurian, the God of Justice, as they rely solely on him to aid in combat when healing is necessary the most.
Gearing
Gearing a Priest depends on many factors such as critical resistance factor, knowledge of dungeon mechanics and skills in pvp/pve. First, your priority is Crit Factor, then Endurance to survive most dungeon mechanics. The last thing is power, but first you must understand your class.
Weapon
Top Stat Roll
Decreases skill cooldowns by 7.2% (Recommended) – Cooldown reduction is extremely important to keep up with your team when it comes to Kaia’s Shield, Divine Charge, Energy Stars and other skills. This is especially important to lower the cooldown of Edict of Judgement even more so.
Bottom Stat Rolls
Decreases skill cooldowns by 7.2% (Recommended) – The same reasoning as why you should need it on the Top Stat Roll.
Increases attack speed by 4.5% (Recommended) – If you could add more Cooldown Reduction, you would go that route. However, Attack Speed is what you want to go with as it’s just as important.
Increases your healing skills by 6% (Recommended) – Though recommended, if you’re focusing on a bit more DPS output, you can switch this out with Damage by 6% or alternatively, Increases damage by 9.3% when attacking enraged monsters to get a bit more damage out of your Edict of Judgement.
Replenishes 0.6% of total MP instantly when you use a skill – This roll is important, as you’ll need MP.

Swift Niveot: Increases Movement Speed by 18 while in combat.
2x Brilliant Niveot: Replenishes 43MP per 5 sec.
Carving Niveot: Increases the chance to crit by 3.3%.
Robe
Top Stat Roll
Decreases cooldown of Kaia’s Shield by 10% (Recommended) – Kaia’s Shield is one of the most important skills for Priests. So naturally, having the skill’s cooldown being reduced is of top priority. Though Protective Response allows the cooldown of Kaia’s Shield to be lowered through Divine Radiance’s third attack, this still allows you to keep it short and sweet. In fact, if ping allows it, you can keep up Kaia’s Shield throughout the entire fight.
Bottom Stat Rolls
Raises max HP by 8% (Recommended) – More health points is always a good thing, especially as end game dungeons start giving more and more damage.
Decreases damage taken by 6% (Recommended) – This is a must, the less damage you take, the more you survive.
Decreases damage taken by enraged monsters by 10% (Recommended) – This is especially important to take, as you’ll notice that during enrage some bosses or monsters will hit you for much more.
Decreases damage taken from frontal attacks by 6.9% – Again, the less damage you take, the more you survive.
