Bishop is a branch of the Explorer Magician class. Upon reaching Level 30, an Explorer Magician can become a Bishop by choosing to become a Cleric after completing the 2nd Job Advancement at Level 30.Their second job is Cleric, their third job is Priest, and their fourth job is Bishop.

Class Specifics

The Bishop job branch specializes in Holy elemental skills as well as party support, including the following:

• Bless, which increases the Attack Power and Magic Attack of party members, getting upgraded to Advanced Blessing later on.
• Holy Symbol, which increases the EXP given to the player and their party.
• Heal, which, as the name suggests, heals the player and their party members within range. Angel Ray, a main attacking skill in 4th job, also has this function.
• Dispel, which cancels out most Abnormal Statuses left on the player and their party members by enemies.
• Holy Fountain, which sets up a fountain that heals party members nearby.
• Mystic Door, which sets up a door to the nearest town and back.
• Holy Magic Shell, which guards against up to 10 hits.
• Resurrection, which revives fallen party members.

Their job specialty skill is Blessed Ensemble, which gives the player extra damage for each party buff given to party members, as well as extra EXP for each job of the Cleric branch in the party. Their hyper skill Righteously Indignant also converts Angel Ray from an efficient mobbing attack to a single-target devastator; toggle it on or off as the situation requires, but be aware that many abilities are locked when single-target mode is active.

Job Advancements

1st Job Advancement

When the player reaches Level 10 as a Beginner, aspiring Magicians will be sent to the Magic Library in Ellinia to talk to Grendel the Really Old, who will advance the player to a Magician. The player will be given an HP and MP boost, as well as a basic magician weapon.

2nd Job Advancement

After saving Maple Island with the help of a Mysterious Voice, the player will reach Level 30 and talk to Athena Pierce, who will send the player back to the Magic Library to talk with Grendel the Really Old. He will allow the player to choose to advance to either a Wizard (Fire, Poison), Wizard (Ice, Lightning), or Cleric; a player that desires to become a Bishop will want to advance to a Cleric. After talking with Grendel the Really Old again, he will then advance the player from a Magician to a Cleric.

3rd Job Advancement

At Level 60, the player will receive a lightbulb above their head. Talk to Camila in Henesys, who will then send the player to Six Path Crossway, where Rondo will be. After knocking his hat off, go to the bottom of the Six Path Crossway and grab the Old Wisconsin hat. Return to Rondo, and use the Interdimensional Portal to travel to Pantheon and talk to Cartalion. Rondo will inquire about finding other Anima like him, and Cartalion will warn not to travel past Pantheon's borders due to the Specter Invasion, sending the player and Rondo to the East Pantheon Border. After defeating 50 Specters, Rondo will give up and thank the player for trying to help.

After talking to Rondo, the player will be given words of encouragement from the Mysterious Voice, granting a new kind of power. The player will be prompted to return to Grendel the Really Old once again, who will teleport the player to the Chief's Residence in El Nath to speak with Robeira. She will then advance the player from a Cleric to a Priest.

4th Job Advancement

At Level 100, the player will receive a lightbulb on the side from Athena Pierce, asking the Explorers to check on the various towns in Victoria Island. The player first plans to go to Perion and Ellinia, but Tess offers to travel there in exchange for the player traveling to the Nautilus. The player talks to Kyrin, who mentions meeting Tess and finding him suspiciously more advanced than other Explorers, while also feeling a strange cloudy energy from him that weakened her.

The player confronts Tess, who reveals that he's secretly Kyrin's older brother. He explains that centuries ago, his father Destonen encountered a follower of the Black Mage named Kirston, who placed a curse on his family's bloodline that would only disappear when the Black Mage was killed. After Destonen explained the curse to Athena Pierce and Tess, he died shortly after and the curse passed on to Tess and Kyrin, causing them to both become weak whenever they were in close proximity. Tess, realizing the danger, decided to leave Ellin Forest and not formally introduce himself to Kyrin until Black Mage was defeated.

After talking to Tess, the player will be given more words of encouragement from the Mysterious Voice, granting a new kind of power. The player will be prompted to return to Robeira once again, who will teleport the player to the Forest of the Priest in Leafre to speak with Gritto. She will then advance the player from a Priest to a Bishop.
