Tao Gunka Effect For Priest

[Boklek]

i think the effect of TGK will be the same as mage class.since priest has a low HP

[Boklek]

or add EWL for the valk items

[zergling]

no i don't agree a priest has buffs on top of the fact that priests can safety wall as well as pneuma allowing them to have even more HP is too much. they can hold plenty of seeds and whatever else they need the class doesn't need more of a bonus.

I've never had any problems on my High Priest and I am playing it for a longer time now. This isn't necessary in my opinion.

[Rayray]

I seriously say that the OP haven't met a good priest yet. giving them more hp is not necessary.

[Genesis]

I'd potentially agree to having a damage boost for Priests is that is what is required to make them appear in PvP more often apart from just a support role.

[Rayray]

Yeah, I agree on a damage boost. how about damage boost on holy light without needing to sort for a Soul Link?(of course if that is implemented, SL for priests should be removed).. i dunno if that is a stupid suggestion, my brain is full of fuck after coding Ruby for 12 hours.

If that happens, i prefer to keep the SL for priests instead. :\

How about boosting Cookie card effect instead? Instead of giving 10% more damage w/ HL how about 20~40%?

Edit :

to stick w/ the topic : Nah, High Priest's already fine the way they are, since they can always Assumptio and Safety wall themselves.

^ what I meant was, increase holy light's damage that you won't need the SL buff. in short, make a card/weapon that gives you like a permanent SL buff for priest. honestly, having the trouble of having a buff SL for your priest for you to pvp then having the damage negated by GTB is rather unpleasant. or just call me lazy.

[zergling]

the priest class was never meant to main damage in pvp the damage they have now is plenty high it doesn't need another increase all you need is the valk wep for the class and the damage can be massive.

[Rayray]

there are a lot of classes in RO that aren't meant for damage but are doing well in FRO. And the fact that you actually need to get a valk weapon to pvp further states that the priest class actually need something more. Profs doesn't need the valk weapon to be at least decent in pvp, snipers and sinx and clowns, are fine just having the elite weapons. so why not give the priests a chance?

[Xtopher]

Ok, so... I'm a veteran priest player. Hell, I would go so far as to say I'm the best battle priest on this server.

Here's my take on the issue:

You can't buff holy light damage anymore. With full gear and link my priest is popping off 300k+ holy lights. With this build I have approximately 220k hp... this means 1 maya reflect and I'm dead. Holy light build doesn't work well on this server other than warping into a pvp zone and randoming people then running away. In any legit battle/duel the enemy will just gtb/angeling/or even worse maya you and you'll reflect kill yourself in 1-2 holy lights.

Now, if you really want priests in pvp I say give them like a 2% chance at casting lvl 3 asura from strike eagle. Remove the 10% holy light damage from strike eagle because the priest book is for HL build, not the scythe. People seem to be reluctant of this because "well what if you auto attack someone with reflect?" It's called double FBH's. With two fbh you have so little mana that asura will do shit damage and you'll take very little reflect dmg.

Another thing that could be done is giving them improve weight limit like all the mages and even stalkers have. They don't need more hp but holding more seeds would be very beneficial.

TL;DR: Priests don't need more hp. I have almost 400k hp on my tank priest... I tank full asura with gtb/skolls. There are other ways to buff the class.

[zergling]

^ agreed the class is perfectly fine as far as HP goes because of the assump that they have. perhaps other types of buffs might be better suited for the class.

[Veracity]

Players have spoken against increasing HP for priest so we will not do this, but if you have any alternative ideas to increase the effectiveness of the class feel free to make a new suggestion! Thank you!
