How it plays
This build maximizes instant-death chance against undead monsters through high LUK and INT. Turn Undead has a success rate formula: every 10 points of LUK increases instant-death rate by 1%. Use /noshift or /ns command to enable Turn Undead and auto-heal effects against undead targets (this must be reapplied each login).
Key rotation: cast Lex Aeterna on the target (doubles Turn Undead damage on failure), then spam Turn Undead. Sanctuary provides area healing, while Resurrection and Holy Light serve as backup damage and healing. Gloria (Luck +30 buff) increases success rate further. Use Kyrie Eleison for melee block and Pneuma for ranged block.
The Bless Ring is critical: Ghostring Shield is not recommended for this build due to its instant-death mechanic.
Versatile offensive support build designed to excel against dark, undead, and demon type MVPs.

How it plays
Open with Sanctuary to debuff the target, then alternate between Magnus Exorcismus and support spells. Signum Crucis serves as an additional debuff that works on MVPs. Use Lex Aeterna only in emergencies due to SP consumption.
If the target is an undead MVP with less than 4 million HP, spam Turn Undead for instant-death chances (minimum 180 LUK for highest success rates). The easiest undead MVP to test is Osiris (found at moc_pryd04). Boss monsters take damage from Turn Undead only if they are also undead property; the formula combines base damage with levels and INT.
Ruwach reveals hidden targets, Meditatio recovers SP, Kaite reflects damage, and Mind Breaker (from Professor jobs) is essential to maximize MATK values. Assumptio boosts survivability.
The Guardian Ring is critical to the build. Ghostring Shield use doubles SP consumption and prevents buffs/heals.
Farming build optimized for Chivalry Emblem collection in the Glastheim Knight maps (gl_knt01, gl_knt02), which are populated with undead and demon enemies.

How it plays
Focus on Holy Light (single-target holy-property MATK) and Heal (used with /noshift or /ns command to damage undead). Sanctuary provides area damage and debuffs. All three skills require the /noshift or /ns command to function against undead/demon enemies; this must be reapplied each login.
Optimal targets: - Raydric - Demi-human, Shadow property (Shadow Lv2) - Khalitzburg - Undead, Undead property (Undead Lv1) - Abyssal Knight - Demi-human, Shadow property (Shadow Lv4) - kill its Khalitzburg slaves for chivalry emblem drops
Chivalry Emblems (item ID 1004) are the target drop. The high STR stat increases item acquisition rate. High INT and DEX ensure damage and cast speed, while VIT 100 grants status immunity.
