Priest (Archetype)

The EQWiki - Your source for random EverQuest knowledge

The Priest Archetype includes three classes: Cleric, Druid and Shaman. While they share certain characteristics with the Purecaster, such as feeble weapons skills (weapon bonus damage does not apply), and an emphasis on casting, the similarity ends there. Priest classes, unlike Purecasters, are Wisdom casters; i.e. Wisdom determines the size of their mana pool and progression in casting skills. Also, unlike Purecasters, they do not wear cloth armor. Priest classes are the best healers in the game. While able to cast damage spells, and having a variety of spell crits available to them, Priests also have a huge variety of healing AAs available to them within their archetype.
