Skills and route selection

For parties prioritize Heal, Kyrie Eleison and well-positioned Sanctuary. Holy damage and physical AGI-Crit are alternative solo routes rather than substitutes for party recovery.

Stats: what to prioritize

Support uses INT, DEX and VIT. Exorcist emphasizes INT/DEX; the physical AGI-Crit route uses STR, AGI and LUK. Support survival still matters after casting is comfortable.

Gear, traits and cards

Support trait priorities are Divine Healing, Radiant Healing and Radiant Cooldown. The guide names Vitata and Obeaune for healing-related effects; damage cards belong to the relevant solo route.

Runes and investment order

The guide favors Holy resonance for healing, with Earth for defensive support or Wind for cooldown help. This is a community choice, not a measured universal optimum.

Complete one coherent route before funding an alternative. The source supports a starting plan; it does not establish current prices or a guaranteed outcome for a particular account.
