He/she sets out on the journey after getting permission from the head of the Church. Following teachings, he/she does not use weapons that can hurt others. Instead, 

he/she is a supporter that uses skills when used on others, increases their fighting abilities and heals them as well.

==Jobchange Guide==
{{:Acolyte Job Change Guide}}

==Builds==
''See [[Priest#Builds|Priest Builds]] or [[Monk#Builds|Monk Builds]] for build strategies.''

* Learn [[Battle Mode]] before turning Priest. The Acolyte skills probably won't fill up more than one hot key bar, but just getting used to [[battle mode]]'s quirks will make the transition to [[Priest]] much easier. 

* If this is a starting character then one should consider getting [[Warp Portal]] early on as they can make a little extra money warping people to places like Louyang at a lower price than the NPC can (and still make profit since it only costs them 600z for the Blue Gem). 

* Making a high INT Acolyte isn't recommended for people who don't like to help others. If anyone sees an Acolyte sitting in town they will possibly ask them for [[buffs]], heals, and maybe if they have a warp to a certain map. The Acolyte of course don't have to do any of these things for strangers, but keep in mind that the way a person treats others is the treatment they get in return. 

* Acolytes are some of the most frequently [[KS|KSed]] first classes. Unless the person [[KS|KSes]] one repeatedly, try to just shrug it off.

=== Support Priest (WoE) ===
====Stats====
Can be the same as support PVM, if one wants to get lower VIT in order to protect against skills that pierce defense then they should vary their amounts of VIT and DEX.

Starting stats

* [[STR]]: 1
* [[AGI]]: 1
* [[VIT]]: 5
* [[INT]]: 9
* [[DEX]]: 4
* [[LUK]]: 9 

Rough stats before Priest job change (bonuses not included). This will likely be around base level 65, possibly lower if the Acolyte levels on monsters with unusual base/job EXP ratios.

* [[STR]]: 1
* [[AGI]]: 1
* [[VIT]]: Low, just starting to add
* [[INT]]: Very high, but 99 isn't necessary
* [[DEX]]: 4
* [[LUK]]: 9 

====Skills====
Can be the exact same as PvM FS, but may consider working [[Decrease AGI]] into build, and possibly not getting [[Angelus]] until [[Priest]] or not at all.

Skills at job 50 (any FS PvM Acolyte not intending to go the entire 50 jobs should not bother making one at all, they can't hold a candle to job 50 Acolytes). These skills can be gotten in any order (outside of the prerequisites), but this is one common way. The number after the skill name indicates how many points to put into it, not necessarily the level to take the skill to.

==== Skills ====
Also note that not all of these skills are a requirement for all PvM FS Acolytes, some people have different playing styles, but almost all of them are used as other Acolyte skill prerequisites, Priest skill prerequisites (these will be noted) or are just extremely useful.


Two skills that no two Acolytes turning Support Priest will ever agree on are [[Cure]] and [[Decrease AGI]]. One should do their research before choosing to get or not get either, as both options have pros and cons. If the Acolyte doesn't get [[Cure]] or [[Decrease AGI]] then they'll be putting those points into [[Angelus]].

*[[Heal]] 10
*[[Divine Protection]] 5

===Stats===
*[[STR]]: Increases [[Weight Limit]] and [[ATK]].
*[[AGI]]: Increases [[ASPD]] and [[Flee]].
*[[VIT]]: Increases max[[HP]], HP regeneration, resistance against several [[Status Effects]], Soft[[DEF]], Soft[[mDEF]] and the efficiency of healing items.
*[[INT]]: Increases [[mATK]], max[[SP]], SP regeneration, resistance against several [[Status Effects]], Soft[[mDEF]], the efficiency of SP recovery items and the amount of your [[Heal]].
*[[DEX]]: Increases [[Hit]], [[ASPD]], and [[ATK]].
*[[LUK]]: Increases [[Critical]], [[ATK]], [[Perfect Dodge]] and resistance against several [[Status Effects]].
