RE: High priest gear setup
I personally don't like the aco combo for ME. I do like the extra exp from demons/undead, the +10 vit, and??the 30% resist to demons/undead, but the autocast skills tend to kill me when I'm trying to heal. Enchanted peach tree's heal sucks because I need to be physically attacking in order for it's autocast to work, and since you're attacking with magic, it's essentially a wasted slot. And since you'll be attacking with magic, and the best staffs/wands for ME are typically not slotted,??Seal is majorly out of place (you don't need hit or crit)
I tend to mob with around 30-40 vit, 90+ base int, and 99 Base dex. At 99, it has around 9-13 k Max HP depending on gearing, unless I can cast fast enough to not get hit,??I typically wear Orlean's robe so I??can cast without getting interupted. With assumptio, it only dies to overmob and status like stun.
Divine cross combo is good for pure dex. It's good on smaller mobs that can be taken out easily like the things in skellington that??have fairly hard hitters in both demon and undead stuffs (dulluhan/disguise in nif) or in places you don't really care much about like geffen 3.
Most other places i find SoP and shields more beneficial, like Demon pungus would be stupid without a Medusa carded shield (can't prevent stone with anything else but Evil Druid, and can't heal with that on). Owls have High mdef, SoP is quite a bit more powerful against most things in Nameless and you get more undead resistance from Teddy bear than Divine cross.
In most instances, SoP provides more power than divine cross, and Racial shields provide more resistances for survivability. Stack that with Armor def (+7 Vidar's Boots are NICE) and Resistance from Raydric and it's going to live through a lot.
If you feel like sacrificing a little casting speed and your max HP a little. I ABSOLUTELY ADORE Requiem hat. You get +4% Max Hp at??+0, but as you refine it, you lose that boost, BUT,??Each refine on the hat gives you 1% Mdef Bypassing, and 1% more damage on Demons. Put that together with a Book weapon, every Refine on the book gives 1% more matk. On a book like??a Principles of Magic (20% Matk on it's own), you get a lot of Matk and mdef piercing with a LOVELY boost against demons. And since the hat has 7 base def, you'd be getting a lot of armor def at high refines.??
However you'd have to either pay a fortune for a hat to break, get lucky with the Bloody branches and summon a Midnight Jack, or wait until halloween again =/
