FAQ

How much does the Priest class cost in Drill to Earth's Core?
Priest costs 30,000 Cores (Tier 5 in the Academy). The four Tier 5 classes - Priest among them - sit at the top of the price ladder, so treat the unlock as a savings project rather than an impulse buy.
What does Priest start with?
Priest starts with Priest Armor Set, Priest Staff. Starter gear alone does not decide a class - the four level passives below it do - but it does mean you can use the class the moment you buy it.
What is the Priest Level 3 passive?
Blessed teammates extend their Blessing by 5 seconds whenever they defeat an enemy. Level 3 is the last personal upgrade; Level 4 turns the class into a team asset.
What is the Priest team bonus?
+50% Church spawn rate. Level 4 is the team bonus - it applies to the whole 30-player server and gates on career total depth, not on anything you do in one run.

What Priest actually does

Priest is a Tier 5 Academy class at 30,000 Cores. Like every class in the game, it hands you starter gear (Priest Armor Set, Priest Staff) and then scales through four levels - three personal upgrades and a team bonus at the end.

The Level 1 passive is the identity: Regenerate 1% of your max HP every second. Everything after that builds on the same idea rather than switching lanes.

Level by level

Level Unlock What changes
1 30,000 Cores Regenerate 1% of your max HP every second
2 Class level requirement Blessed teammates instantly revive when defeated
3 Class level requirement Blessed teammates extend their Blessing by 5 seconds whenever they defeat an enemy
4 Career total depth gate +50% Church spawn rate (team bonus)

Level 4 is the team bonus - it applies to the whole 30-player server and gates on career total depth, not on anything you do in one run.

Is Priest worth 30,000 Cores?

At Priest’s price point the question is never whether the class works - it is whether it fixes a problem you actually have. Tier 5 unlocks cost more than everything below them combined, so buy one when your runs are failing for the specific reason this class solves.

Where it fits in a team

The team bonus is what makes Priest show up in multiplayer lobbies: +50% Church spawn rate. In a 30-player server that is a bonus nobody has to spend their own Cores on, which is why team-first classes get picked even by players who main something else.

The healer page covers the medkit-based alternative for teams that prefer burst healing.

If you have not settled your first purchases yet, the all classes page has every Core price, and the best classes tier list explains where Priest lands against the rest of the roster.
