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 undead foes with 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.

== Early Game Leveling ==
=== Levels 1–10 ===
At the start, players begin in '''Nevaris''', the main town. The first training area is '''Sunny Meadows''', where most classes learn the basics of combat. 


* Until you unlock '''Holy Light''', rely on basic melee attacks to defeat weaker enemies. 
<!--
* Focus on raising your Job Level quickly so that you can obtain Holy Light as soon as possible. 
== Job Advancement ==
* Once you have Holy Light, you can continue leveling in Sunny Meadows or move to the early parts of the '''Forest Labyrinth'''. 


Recommended Maps:
{{JobAdvancementBox
* '''Sunny Meadows (Lv 1–10):''' Beginner-friendly map, easy enemies, good for Job EXP. 
| FirstClass = Priest
* '''Forest Labyrinth (Lv 4–10):''' Slightly harder, with multiple levels of monsters. Acolytes can handle it well after unlocking Holy Light.
| SecondClass = Monk
 
| ThirdClass = ???
Stat Priority: 
* All points → [[File:Intelligence.png|15px]] [[Attributes#Intelligence_(INT)|INT]]
 
----
 
=== Levels 10–30 ===
During this stage, Acolytes gain their foundational class abilities that affect specific targets, namely the Undead. '''Festering Woods''' is the best choice for leveling. 
 
* Most enemies here are '''Undead''' or '''Shadow''' type, meaning they are weak to '''Holy Light'''. 
* '''Heal''' can also be used offensively against Undead enemies once it is leveled. This makes you both self-sustaining and highly effective against mobs. 
* Stay in Festering Woods until at least level 30. While here, try to collect useful card and equipment drops that will boost your cast speed and holy damage. 
 
Recommended Maps:
* '''Festering Woods (Lv 19–25):''' Challenging when you first enter, but Acolytes thrive here thanks to their Holy skills.
 
Stat Priority:
* First → Finish [[File:Intelligence.png|15px]] [[Attributes#Intelligence_(INT)|INT]] 70 
* Then → Start investing in [[File:Dexterity.png|15px]] [[Attributes#Dexterity_(DEX)|DEX]] (goal 40)
 
----
 
=== Levels 30–40 ===
The final part of the early game is spent in '''Fairy Glen'''. This zone is more difficult for Acolytes because most enemies are '''Holy-aligned''', and will take reduced damage from both '''Holy Light''' and '''Exorcism'''. 
 
* Invest into '''Exorcism''' for AoE damage. While it is also a Holy spell, the ability to strike multiple targets at once makes it efficient despite the damage reduction. 
* Try to gather multiple mobs before casting Exorcism for best results. 
* Several important equipment drops are found here, so it is recommended to remain in Fairy Glen until Lv 40 even if leveling feels slower. 
* '''Important Note:''' Fairy Glen is the first map where you will find monsters with the '''Spell Shield''' skill, which will reflect one spell and deal full damage to the player. This will reflect Holy Light, but not Exorcism.
 
Recommended Maps:
* '''Fairy Glen (Lv 26–32):''' Holy enemies resist single-target holy spells, but grouping mobs and using Exorcism makes this map viable. Good for farming key items before moving on.
 
Stat Priority:

== Mid Game Leveling ==
== Additional Guides ==
 
=== Levels 40–60 ===
At this stage, Acolytes gain access to stronger AoE spells and supportive skills that allow them to thrive in densely packed maps. The best choice for this bracket is the '''Goblin Cave''', which is filled with Undead monsters that naturally take extra damage from holy-based abilities. 
 
* Gather large groups of Goblins and position yourself so they cluster tightly. 
* Cast '''Exorcism''' in the center of the pack to deal heavy AoE damage. 
* Place '''Sanctuary''' on the edge of your Exorcism field to heal yourself and allies while also damaging Undead caught in the area. 
* Spam '''Mass Heal''' offensively on groups for additional Holy damage. 
* Use '''Holy Light''' as a filler when other skills are on cooldown. 
* Focus on fast clears rather than drops here — Goblin Cave is primarily for efficient leveling. 
 
Recommended Map: 
* '''Goblin Cave (Lv 40–60):''' Undead-filled dungeon ideal for AoE-heavy leveling with holy skills.
 
Stat Priority: 
* Push [[File:Vitality.png|15px]] [[Attributes#Vitality_(VIT)|VIT]] steadily toward 40 if not already complete 
* Remaining points → [[File:Intelligence.png|15px]] [[Attributes#Intelligence_(INT)|INT]] up to 99
 
=== Levels 60–80 ===
For this stage, the best option is the '''Crystal Cave'''. This map is shaped like a horseshoe and filled with tightly packed Water-type enemies. While Acolytes do not gain a natural elemental advantage here, the density of mobs and the quality of drops make it one of the strongest choices for progression. 
 
* Use '''Exorcism''' to clear groups efficiently as enemies tend to bunch together in the curved layout. 
* '''Sanctuary''' can keep you safe while farming in larger pulls, especially if you mismanage aggro. 
* Exercise caution when using '''Holy Light''', as many enemies here cast '''Spell Shield''', which reflects single-target magic damage. 
* This zone is particularly valuable due to its drops: 
** The '''Weaver Set''' – a direct upgrade from Spellthread, with two slots per piece, allowing three additional cards across the set. 
** '''Resonant Headphones''' – a powerful headgear option that reduces cast time and lowers MP cost. 
 
Recommended Map: 
* '''Crystal Cave (Lv 60–80):''' High mob density, strong item drops, but beware of Spell Shield.
 
Stat Priority: 
* Continue raising [[File:Intelligence.png|15px]] [[Attributes#Intelligence_(INT)|INT]] toward 99 
* After INT is maxed, put additional points into [[File:Vitality.png|15px]] [[Attributes#Vitality_(VIT)|VIT]] for survivability
 
== Late Game Leveling ==


This section is the last part of the leveling section of the page, and it should focus on providing the best possible avenues for leveling, places where the best possible gear can be found, and further goals to aim for.

Work In Progress 


== Endgame Overview ==
== See Also ==
This section goes into depth on how the class will play, and how it should function at the highest level. While this is temporary as advanced classes will replace this completely, it is still useful for players at the current time so that they can test out the higher levels.


== Tips and Tricks ==
{{Template:Navbox}}
Just the usual section where miscellaneous bits of info can be provided that doesn't fit anywhere else in the guide. Sections aren't probably needed, and instead bullet points can be used. Most likely the most customized part of the guide, as each class will handle their tips and tricks differently. Aco, for example, would probably mention things about killing undead, buff timers, and the current healing meta.
