Preparing for a HT run.

I hate to say this but... true and experienced Bishops DO NOT spam heal. It really irks me when I see a Bishop spamming heal. The only time you could be spamming heal is if you are in a party attacking the Tail or following Seduce.

At least one bishop in the seduce party should be spamming heal at all times, even when no one is seduced, so that the main seduce will get healed right after HB if dispelled, and in case the seduce symbol lags (as it often does). Seriously, spamming heal has been covered by my own MP regen since I was a priest, so why not? Especially at HT, when things happen fast and you might lag.

If you see black wyverns, at any time, stop what you're doing and spam magic guard until they're killed. They'll dispel your MG, and if you're not watching yourself that can get you killed right there. Luckily, in a place like HT, black wyverns stay around about as long as a fart in the wind, so this shouldn't be much of an issue for you. You won't let your party down by spamming MG during this period because the wyverns should all be killed in less than 10 seconds.

Awesome way to get the main seduce killed. Alternate between Heal and MG... Or better yet, learn to notice when you get dispelled and MG then... Papping a lot helps, since the head's dispel is similar to Pap's dispel.

Some groups will not allow Genesis, due to lag.

o.O If your computer can handle HT, it can surely handle Genesis. Most of HT's attacks are flashier than Gen...


Also, 4700 HP to take a tail hit as a bishop. You only need about 20k MP, too, not 30k or Infinity. Don't forget about Invincible.


Note that Zerking carries the risk that if you get mass seduced and your bishop is not spamming heal, you can be 1/1ed and hit within a few seconds, too fast for you to use Will and pot.


If you are the right side bishop, stay between the rocks and the rope. If you sit on the rocks, you can be KBed out past the rope at the wrong moment.
