Hello, I finally taken level 50 and I did a hybrid build:

http://www.ro2skills...EeBdDrbeEen2OqA

But I was talking about with a friend and he dont think a Hybrid Priest can heal "good" Random Hard Dungeon and Raids.

So my question is: Can a Hybrid Priest heal without problems in Random Hard Dungeon and Raids? Or maybe a Hybrid Priest have other finality in raids/Dungeons? Is there a really big different with a Pure Support Healer?

Is my Build correct?

Really thanks and I appreciate your help.

Hybrid priest can easily heal anything in RO2 including all raids in hard mode. I would recommend to get at least 1 point if not max Gloria rather than more points in dps spell. Most raid/RHD you will hardly use any of the DoT, so it's solely for farm mob or pvp.

As you and other people or guildmates get gear, PvE content starts to become trivial to the point that I right now just place Renovatio on the tank and other players when needed and act as a 4th dps in RHD situations. Havn't had a problem healing as a hybrid pvp based priest so far in PvE Arena or Baphomet Hardmode yet.

Knowing fights or knowing when damage is coming will probably be your biggest advantage if you are afraid that you arn't going to do enough healing as a hybrid priest.

As far as your build goes, leave all your dots at level 1. The increase in damage from leveling it up is so trivial. Oratio only goes up by 1% for every level up so yeah...

If you're going hybrid, you can put the 2 points in sacrement into something else, maybe work your way to archangel. Archangel is good for when say a boss does a large aoe on the group which only happens every now and again. Archangel also it powers up your damage as well as your healing so it's even more useful for hybrid priests.

Gloria is debatable, totally up to you to leave it at level 1 or max it based on your playstyle and how many points you have left.

This is my build based on my playstyle.

Thanks for the advices ^^.

If a hybrid Priest can heal perfectly in every ocassion, what is really the use for a pure Support and Healer Priest? Because could sound a bit silly forget all your dps skills for heal more when really you dont need it for do your job.

FS can heal better since they will max some lv 1 skills on hybrid (Gloria, sanctuary, etc)

My current build. Never use sacrament. Never have a problem healing. Level 4 Sanc is just amazing in my opinion. Saves the day numerous times because you don't have to use it as long as level 1 (4 seconds is usually enough to get everyone topped off) and you're back to healing normally.

DoT effects aren't really worth the extra points. Most don't even net you an extra 100 damage at level 5 from level 1....until you're in all hardmode raid gear.
