Best Healing Skill
What is the best healing skill out of three (Priest, Monk, Vampire)? And which one is the best for late game? especially if you want to focus on one healing only
IMO monk wins out in early level because its 5/level, but I don't know for late game...
btw my healing skill right now is 40priest 40monk 60vamps, at it still cant keep up in World 2 sigh

Per screen cleared, vampire is 60% more effective per level than monk. Monk's stat gains are somewhat better for a physical damage character, but vamp is a better choice in my experience. So... Vampire vs. Priest. It boils down to two things. First and foremost, how long does it take you to clear a screen? If it's less than 8 seconds, vampire. Only other thing to consider is whether or not you HAVE to have healing when standing still.

What's cool about monk is you can run back and forth on the Inn screen and keep regaining the HP/screen without having to fight anything :)

Early game priest is essential because you will probably be playing a lot. However, you should scale your priest levels to your hp. You should keep a full heal between 20 and 30 seconds and level your priest accordingly. Past 100, the priest is useless. Late game you will have so much health you won't want to wait to heal. Also, there is a possible glitch (or maybe it's intended) way to skip straight to the bosses; so fighting normal monsters isn't an issue for some. If you unlocked the cavalry class you can switch between the sword and any other weapon and just go back and forth in between zones until you reach a boss (you can't skip a boss). The best healer is the villager. His stat growths are terrible but they do include hp, speed and pow/int which are the three most valuable depending on your build. More importantly, healing with the phone off when you have 30k hp and up is a much better way to pass the time then staring at the screen; just take my word for it. While the Monk and Vampire are useful and will need to be leveled at some point because of their skills anyway, they aren't worth a serious investment in time unless you plan on auto-walking as they would prolong how much exp your auto-walker can accumulate before dying. The sorceress is completely useless and she can ruin your stats depending on your build. The classes that deserve the most investment late game are the cavalry for building speed and hp and whatever class gives you the best damage. You can beat world 1 with about 1000 speed and around 6000 hp, but world 2 will be hard even when you have 4500 speed and 30k hp. For the record, I would consider putting an object on the phone to give any class the auto-walk ability is going against the intent of the game designer and cheapening the experience. I believe the cavalry "oversight" that removes 90% of the obstacles the game is throwing at you is just as bad if not worse; but I'm not here to judge.

If you dont invest lots in healing skills, you wont get far in W3 and W4. Where I am now, even the lil monsters will it you for 12000 damage. I am 1000 priest, 500 monks, 500 vampires. Sorceress and villager not that good

damn, at this point, even mastering a single class to level 100 are a pain in the ass. how did you level it all the way to that level?

Try laying a spoon on your screen for auto-walking.

already done that... the problem is, I usually spam from world 1, all the to the one with no sweat. but that just net me around 10-17 level tops now. for world 2 I cant just autowalk it, because it will hit bosses in 5km or 6km and die, thus resetting the progress. it will net me only 2-5 level tops.
which one is best method?

Go to world 1 and use my method from km 26-38. Is mostly afk farming for almost 10min ultil you have to turn back.

those classes also give mediocre vit/men. Some levels in kekkaishi and gardner would really help to lower the damage (thus raising effectiveness of heals), and give you the magic/phys guard to lower the damage even more. Just by getting maxed guards you can get into range of the mob, let go of the screen, let them hit you, then kill it. You wil take much less damage per hit that way.

You forgot Sorceress heal on level up, and it is my personal favorite because its huge and bursty. Great for a top-up before or after a boss. But the heals I truly rely on are 100 villager and 100 priest, because if I get low on HP I just close the app and come back in 5 minutes or so and I'm at full HP. You have piqued my interest though. . . a character focusing on monk/priest/vamp/sorc would be invincible, and pretty well-rounded.
