The main purpose of this guide is to provide information on the gear progression for Magic Damage and Full Support Cardinal Builds. For Magic builds, this guide should be read in tandem with [[Choi's Guide To Magic]] which provides more general information about magic classes. However, as the gear and concepts are similar across different builds, this guide should also be helpful for other magic builds. Please feel free to reach out to me (IGN: Choi or Tokki) for any questions or feedback!

Due to it being full support, Cardinal focuses more heavily on stats and bonuses that other classes might not focus as much on. Cardinal is also a pretty flexible build, so you can adjust your build according to what works best for you! Whether you want to be the tankiest cardinal on the server, buff your friends 10 times per second, or have the strongest heal you can have, it's totally up to you. However, here is how I, personally, prioritize my stats:

Cardinal is also a pretty flexible build, so you can adjust your build according to what works best for you! Whether you want to be the tankiest cardinal on the server, buff your friends 10 times per second, or have the strongest heal you can have, it's totally up to you. However, here is how I, personally, prioritize my stats:  
# Cast Time Reduction: Generally, your goal will be to reach instant cast or near instant cast in the end game, so you will want to make sure you have enough FCT Reduction and VCT Reduction. Due to the +17 int and dex provided by {{#skill:2041}} and the stats you can afford not indexing into damage, I opt for VCT reduction through Stats rather than gear. This means you will want reduction by getting your ((Dex x 2) + INT) = 530.

This means you will want reduction by getting your ((Dex x 2) + INT) = 530. However, 100% VCT reduction through gear is just as viable, and you can opt for this route as well.  
# Tankiness: Overall, HP and resists, are super effective on Cardinal. Since {{#skill:5269}} scales off the target's HP, your healing will scale off your own HP if you cast it on yourself. Additionally, since you won't be sacrificing stats for damage, you can afford to invest in tank stats.

# After Cast Delay Reduction: Many of a Cardinal's main supportive abilities have zero to low cooldowns but high after cast delay. For example, {{#skill:54}} has 0 cooldown but 3s After Cast Delay. As such, After Cast Delay Reduction is a stat that I index very highly into.

# Attack Speed: Attack Speed decreases the animation delay of your skills. Once you hit enough After Cast Delay Reduction, your skills will start being gated by your attack speed. As such, Attack Speed is a very useful stat for Cardinals

# Healing Effectiveness and H.Plus: Boosts the strength of your heals. If you think you are already tanky enough and have enough ACD and ASPD, then healing effectiveness will help boost your support abilities.

There are other useful abilities, but these are the ones that I use the most often. In general, playing Cardinal may feel like playing the piano with all the keys you will press!

Also big shout out to Soothing and [[Fuka's_Serious_Guide_for_FS_Cardinal]] both of whom I used as a reference for this phase.  
The {{#item:15399}} and the {{#item:32248}}/{{#item:32249}} and {{#item:32251}} will provide much more tanky stats. The {{#item:450182}}{{#item:490120}}{{#item:490121}} will provide more ACD Reduction.

I personally prefer the Glade Rune Boots over the Hero Boots-LT, as the Glade Rune Boots provides more bonus HP. However, the {{#item:310912}} provides a chance of +100 vit when receiving attacks, albeit at a low proc chance. Additionally, switching to the Glade Rune Boots allows a slot for the Light of Cure.
In this phase, I would consider whether you will go for VCT Reduction through Stats or through Gears.
* For VCT through Stats, you can ignore any enchants that provide VCT reduction %. Instead, lean more towards Dex over Vit enchants, but having some Vit enchants is not bad. You will want to find a balance though. Generally, if you are using more DEX than VIT in your base stats VIT to get instant cast, then DEX enchants are better and vis-versa.
* For VCT through Gear, you will forgo any DEX enchants and opt for VIT instead. Additionally, you should look for more VCT Reduction %, but just make sure that you aren't wasting any enchants or gears after you hit 100% VCT Reduction.
Some gears and enchants to consider when going through VCT through Gear:
* {{#item:19480}} and {{#item:400465}} will provide you VCT%, whereas {{#item:18972}} and {{#item:400537}} will not.
* VCT% enchants will be important on {{#item:16099}}, {{#item: 590049}}, and {{#item:1659}}
* {{#item:490163}} and {{#item:32231}} can provide you VCT%, whereas {{#item:2864}} will not.  
* {{#item:24749}} and {{#item:24750}} can be used instead of {{#item:24339}} and {{#item:24340}}
* Note that your shadow gear can also be enchanted with VCT% options.

=== Notes ===
=== Notes ===
DPS Cardinal is a very fun build that provides a mix of supportive abilities and damage that allows you to thrive in both solo play and group play. While you won't be as tanky or have as many supportive abilities as the Full Support Cardinal, you will still have access to some useful buffs and skills like {{#skill:2041}} or {{#skill:54}}. Additionally, Arch Bishop's zero to low fixed cast requirements on Adoramus and Arbitrium make it fairly newbie friendly. However, due to its main fourth class damage skill being Holy element, you will have to be careful where you level and farm, as you won't be able to damage holy element.


Big shout out to Chyester for helping me test a few Cardinal builds.


=== Relevant Skills ===
=== Relevant Skills ===
'''Talisman''':
* {{#skill:5273}}: Your main damaging abilities. Provides very strong damage to a target in a 9x9 AOE. This will be your highest DPS skill.  
* {{#skill:5429}}: Your main ability while leveling. It provides good damage and a large 11x11 ground targeted AOE.
* {{#skill:5279}}: A very powerful ground targeted ability with a 11x11 AOE. It does neutral damage which will be helpful against holy mobs. However, this skill has a 5s cooldown, so it should not be your main skill.  
* {{#skill:5427}}: Has a huge 15x15 AOE around the caster but provides significantly less damage than Black Tortoise. However, it is super useful for farming and once you get your Time Dimension Combo, every time you cast White Tiger, you will auto-cast Black Tortoise.  
* {{#skill:5284}}: Provides decent damage to a target in a 7x7 AOE. It does significantly less damage than Arbitrium, but this skill only has a shorter .3s cooldown.
* {{#skill:5431}}: A powerful ability but its main benefit is that it activates the Blessing of the Four Directions which provides a very significant buff to all of your Talisman Skills. To activate it, you cast Blue Dragon -> White Tiger -> Red Phoenix -> Black Tortoise -> Circle of Direction and Elementals. It's confusing at first, but you'll quickly get the hang of it!
* {{#skill:2046}}: Decreases Holy resistances of all enemies on screen with a 90% chance.
* {{#skill:5428}} and {{#skill:5426}}: While not powerful on their own, the combo becomes very powerful for single targets with the Time Dimension combo that auto-casts Red Phoenix when Blue Dragon is cast.
* {{#skill:5281}}: Gives SPL/WIS/STA to a target.
 
* {{#skill:5271}}: Provides a buff to the target that allows them to ignore 25% MRES.
'''EXO''':
* {{#skill:5278}}: Restores HP and SP in an AOE and provides a huge 50 P.ATK and S.ATK buff.  
* {{#skill:5425}}: Your main skill in the EXO build. It is very powerful and has a large 13x13 AOE around the caster.
* {{#skill:2040}}: For early leveling, Adoramus will be your main skill before you become a cardinal. {{#item:12333}} will make the skill do neutral damage.
* {{#skill:5421}}: Allows the user to collect souls while {{#skill:2609}} is active. Everytime you use EXO, you will have to cast Soul Gathering, so your combo will be Soul Gathering -> EXO -> Soul Gathering -> EXO, and so on.
* {{#skill:5422}}: A really useful supportive skill that provides HP and SP in an AOE. However, it also provides a huge buff to EXO when the user is under the Totem of Tutelary effect.
 
'''General''':
* {{#skill:425}}: A super useful ability that allows you to change the element of your damaging abilities. Use this effectively to take advantage of [[Elements|elemental weaknesses]].
* {{#skill:426}}: A movement ability that allows you to leap a decent distance and over terrain.  
* {{#skill:420}}: A self buff that provides a 20% chance of blocking long ranged abilities.
* {{#skill:465}}: Provides a buff that resurrects you when you die. But surely you won't ever die if you follow my guide right?
* {{#skill:463}}: Provides a buff that trades some of your SP to gain HP whenever you are hit.  
* {{#skill:2612}}: On the other hand, trades some of your HP to gain SP.
* {{#skill:5424}}: A damaging ability that also restores some of your SP.
* {{#skill:2601}}: Curses a target making it take increased damage from Shadow element.
 
'''Supportive''':
* {{#skill:2599}} Fairy Soul: Provides MATK and VCT% reduction
* {{#skill:5420}}: Provides S.MATK
* {{#skill:5423}}: Provides an increase in damage against water, wind, earth, fire, and neutral element
* {{#skill:5432}}: A party buff that provides a large buff in damage and recovers AP
* {{#skill:5418}}: Provides HP recovery every 3 seconds
* {{#skill:5419}}: Provides P.ATK
* {{#skill:2598}} Falcon Soul: Provides ATK and HIT
* {{#skill:2596}} Golem Soul: Provides DEF and MDEF
* {{#skill:2597}} Shadow Soul: Provides Critical and ASPD
* {{#skill:2605}}: A party buff that provides HP recovery every 3 seconds
Generally, if I am playing by myself, Fairy Soul, Talisman of Magician, Talisman of Protection, and Talisman of Five Elements are the main buffs that I provide to myself. If I have the available skill points for Soul of Heaven and Earth, then I will cast that on myself as well.
 
'''Leveling''' is a bit difficult for Soul Reaper before reaching Soul Ascetic due to the Soul requirements on skills. As such, I recommend leveling with either {{#skill:2602}} and {{#skill:2604}} or {{#skill:2600}} and {{#skill:2601}}.
* {{#skill:2602}}: At level 10, Espa has no soul requirements, so is easy to spam. Affected by {{#skill:425}}
* {{#skill:2604}}: Very powerful ability but can only be used after Espa has been cast. Consumes 1 soul energy at level 10. Affected by {{#skill:425}}
* {{#skill:2600}}: Has no soul requirements, so it is easy to spam. It does Shadow damage.
* {{#skill:2601}}: Curses a target making it take increased damage from {{#skill:2600}} and increased damage from Shadow element. Consumes 3 Soul Energy

At Level 170, you will have access to the [[Illusion_of_Labyrinth_Equipment| Illusion of Labyrinth and its related equipment]]. The Illusion Morpheus Set will provide a good boost in damage, and a +9 {{#item:19428}} will give you Skill Cast Interruption Protection. <br>

Lastly, the Advanced Paradise Equipment does not provide a Middle or Lower Headgear, so getting middle and lower headgears will provide an easy upgrade.

Additionally, while you are leveling as an Arch Bishop, you may want to invest in {{#item:24305}} and {{#item:24292}} as well as {{#item:25709}} and {{#item:25707}}, as both combos will reduce Adoramus Cooldown by 1s each. If you don't want to break the Advanced Paradise Shadow Combo, then you can just get the {{#item:25709}} and {{#item:25707}} combo.

1.5s Fixed Cast Reduction is what you need. If you haven't already, your focus will be on getting {{#item:470088}} with the {{#item:310602}} or any other 1s FCT reduction shoe.
1s Fixed Cast Reduction is what you need. However, 1.5s is better since some of your supportive skills have 1.5s Fixed Cast. It's up to you to decide whether you want to upgrade to 1.5s by getting the {{#item:470088}} with the {{#item:310602}} or whether you want to sit on the {{#item:470021}} until Phase Three. {{#skill:5279}} has a 2s Fixed Cast time, but you can worry about that later.


The [[Brilliant_Light_Accessories| Brilliant]]/[[Sinful_Accessories| Sinful]] Sapphire Accessory Pairs give a good amount of damage and provide .2s and .3s FCT reduction respectively. With the {{#item:25170}} that gives .3s FCT reduction, you'll have a total of 1.5s or 1.6s FCT reduction. I do not recommend getting a {{#item:25067}} if it's too expensive, as you'll already have enough FCT!<br>

For Talisman Builds, the Time Dimension Combo will be the biggest upgrade for the build, and you will be dropping Vesper Helm for the TD Crown. However, Depth 2 is a very difficult map, so you won't be able to farm there until Phase 5. That being said, feel free to Grade and upgrade your Vesper Helm or keep it at +9 or +12 or continue to use the Survival Circlet-LT until you can get to the TD Combo.

For EXO Builds, you will continue to use the Vesper Helm, so you will want to Grade and Enhance it.
