Magnus Exorcismus is an offensive Priest skill that consecrates a patch of ground, scorching every enemy that stands within it with repeated waves of holy fire.
Overview
Magnus Exorcismus is cast on the ground and creates a large cross-shaped holy field, covering a 7 × 7 area, that lasts for several seconds. While the field is active it pulses at regular intervals, dealing Holy-element magic damage to enemies inside. It is the Priest's signature area attack against the undead and demonic.
Mechanics
The field pulses once every 3 seconds for its full duration. Each pulse strikes enemies inside the area, with the number of hits per pulse equal to the skill level. Each hit deals Holy-element magic damage based on the caster's MATK.
Damage formula: Damage per hit = 75% of MATK
Against Undead-property, Demon-race or Dark-element targets, each hit instead deals:
Damage formula (vs Undead, Demon or Dark): Damage per hit = 100% of MATK
A target can be struck only once per pulse, so it is hit at most once every 3 seconds. The number of hits per pulse rises with skill level, so higher levels concentrate far more damage on each enemy in the field. Casting the skill consumes 1 Blue Gemstone.

Notes
The field deals its full damage against Undead-property, Demon-race and Dark-element enemies, making it a powerful clearing tool in undead-heavy areas. Because each target is hit only once per 3-second pulse, longer field durations matter most for keeping enemies under fire while higher levels raise the hits landed on each pulse.
