Bishop's 5th Job skill is unrealistic!
From the patch notes:
Bishop
Intense Prayer: Creates a sacred area to bless others through intense prayer.
Level 1: MP Cost: 1000. Duration: 31 seconds. Final Damage of all party members within range: +10%. Periodically recovers 2% MaxHP/MaxMP and clears certain statuses. Final Damage: +1% per 1500 INT up to +51% max. HP/MP Recovery: +1% per 2000 INT up to +15% max. Attack Speed: +1 per 10000 INT up to +3 max.You only receive 40% of the Final Damage bonus. Can be toggled. Cooldown: 120 seconds.
The problem with this skill is how unrealistic these requirements are for most Bishops. With decent funding, one can get around 2k or 3k INT at around level 200, but an insane amount of funding and NX spending would be needed to get 30k INT to take advantage of +3 attack speed to give to party members. Even worse is that we don't get a lot of benefit out of the buff ourselves, and getting 40% of what is essentially 11 or 12% of Final Damage is pathetic. Most of us won't even be able to get up to 10k INT just for a slight uptick in attack speed (getting Speed Infusion would be much easier).
In Reboot, meeting those high INT numbers will be near to impossible because scrolls are not available. It's just not doable to push a Bishop to 5th job in Reboot because of this.
Bishop's Intense Prayer is the most useless 5th Job Skill of the entire set, and I wish those bonus requirements can be adjusted to make playing a 5th job Bishop actually worth playing again without the need to spend copious amounts of NX just to keep up with everyone else...
TL;DR: Bishop's Intense Prayer's INT requirements for bonus effects is unrealistic for most Bishops, especially those in Reboot. Except if you spend lots of NX.
