Ideal for players who enjoy support roles with a touch of offense.''”</div>

Acolytes embody faith and support, channeling holy power to heal and protect allies. Perfect for players who enjoy supportive roles, Acolytes excel at keeping parties alive through healing magic while also banishing [[File:UndeadIcon.png|15px]] [[Elements#Undead|Undead]] foes with [[File:HolyIcon.png|15px]] [[Elements#Holy|Holy]] attacks.  

Their spellbook grants them access to both defensive and offensive light-based abilities, allowing them to adapt to many situations. Though not as durable as a Knight or as damaging as a Mage, their value lies in enabling their team to survive even the harshest encounters.  

As a Base Class, the Acolyte is the cornerstone of supportive play, offering stability, healing, and guidance to groups venturing into dangerous battles.
