MapleStory: Bishops Please! All New Guide For Bossing Bishops Post Jump/Ascension

Many friends have asked me questions relating to the Bishop in Maplestory, with so many changes since Big Bang to Jump/Ascension for the previously "buff-only" bishop, this is the all new Bishop guide for Bishops who love and want to go bossing often SOLO.

Equipment:
1.) Concentrate on pure INT only equipment wherever possible (as you will be going pure INT for the awesome bossing damage, the higher amount of MP won't hurt either), even though the new MA formula factors in LUK as well, pure INT will still overpower the rest.
2.) Elemental wands and staves can be used by Bishops in MapleSEA as far as I know.
#Thankfully for MapleSEA players, we have the onyz, bronze and gold source weapons requiring 0 stats to equip.
3.) Aim for earrings, capes, shields with % INT stats under the potential stats usually those being 6%, 9% or more.
4.) Aim for shoulderpads (120 and above)
5.) Aim for Chaos Horntail Necklace/MoN

Stats to add:
Just add  all of your AP into INT all the way.

Skills to max:
Cleric - Heal, Bless, Teleport, High Wisdom, Invincible, Spell Mastery, MP Eater
Priest - Dispel, Mystic Door, Holy Symbol, Shining Ray, Holy Focus, Holy Magic Shell, Teleport Mastery, Booster
Bishop - Angel Ray, Bahamut, Infinity, Ressurection, Advanced Blessing, Arcane Aim, Buff Mastery, Maple Warrior (Priority is to max first Angel Ray, Arcane Aim, Advanced Blessing, Bahamut and Infinity to solo bosses ASAP once you have advanced to the Bishop.)

Skills for the Bishop that do not need to be maxed:
1.) Genesis - the 30 second cooldown still makes it not so trigger happy
2.) Big Bang - rendered more useless now after the changes made in Jump/Ascension

Potions recommended for 120 and above:
Ginger Ales, Elixirs, Power Elixirs

Buff Potions recommended:
Wizard Elixir, Chicken Soup, Onyx Apple, Energy Drink

Complementary buffs:
Angelic Blessing Ring's Archangel, Dark Angelic Blessing Ring's Darkarchangel, Meditation, Maple Warrior

Bosses very suitable for soloing:
Scarlion, Targa - Level 130 and above
Papulatus - Level 125 and above
Zakum - Level 130 and above
Samurai - Level 110 and above
Angeo - Level 120 and above
