I have came to love that little shadow pet, many times It's helped pool out the mana for me. Mine is an Alch/Tailor so I do have it a tiny bit easier on mana so far, But I don't expect it to last till 85.

But yeah, this is the highest I've ever taken a priest myself, and he started out as an experiment in multi class boxing, which is becoming oh so much easier now, thanks to Lax, and the advice here. I swear I learn something every day here myself. and I'm going on a good day or two posting.
