Aion: A Quick Guide to Starter Weapons--Priest

Tags : priests, starter classes, clerics, the most solid,     

 

Priests wield maces and use a combination of spell casting and melee combat to get through the levels. While dealing less damage than the other three starter classes, a priest is the most solid and should never find themselves in a situation where they end up dying. They are the only class with the ability to heal with spells. You can use spells exclusively while questing, but the maces provide additional real damage, and are not just for show. Using spells to cast at a mob until it gets close, then using the mace's abilities, then switching back to spell casting until the melee abilities are off cool down is the typical way to go about killing things. Priests can become Clerics and Chanters.
 
Clerics focus on their spells and healing and learn how to use shields. Out of the two options they are the most similar to the Priest. The three weapon options are very similar to the options a Mage gets; two different maces and a staff. Clerics work best with maces because it allows them to wield shields and since they focus on their spell casting they do not need an offensive melee weapon, just a defensive one.
 
Chanters continue to gain new spells but take a shift from casting most of their damage to gaining more instant damage spells and melee abilities. At this level they should take the staff as it deals more damage and works well with their weapon imbuing abilities, letting them get the most out of their new magic. At higher levels they may want to switch back to a mace and shield, providing higher survivability at the cost of less damage output.
 
 
As long as you do not choose a weapon which you cannot use, then you should be okay. Even if you do, vendors sell lesser versions of all of these weapons, or you can keep using your weapon from before you hit level 10. It can feel lame to choose the wrong weapon, I know I did during beta on my Spiritmaster, but it is a lot better than choosing the wrong class and redoing all 10 levels. The next weapon upgrade is achieved around level 13 or 14, so it is not a huge amount of time to get something new. But it will be harder to do those levels if you have chosen the wrong weapon. Especially if you are a melee class because the line between being able to move through monsters and having to rest between each kill is really close.
