Ability 1: Holy light (25 CD)
Creates a beam of light that comes from the sky in an area. if it hits an enemy the cleric enters the blessing state for 7 sec getting healed over time and enhancing his other abilities. (this ability has charges CD Between charges is 7 sec )
cast range 30m
1. + 1 charge
2. + Healing regen after hiting an enemy
3. + 120 Dmg

Ability 2: Healing light/ Blessed healing light (10 cd)
Heals a target ally and deals spirit dmg to the cleric (he stays at 1 hp if the ability would take more hp then he has), if the cleric is in blessing state the heal is doubled.
cast range 35m, buff duration 5 sec
1. The heal gives the ally bullet and melee resistance
2. The heal give the ally spirit resistance
3. This heal also targets +2 nearby allies for 75% of it´s value

Ability 3: Holy fire/Blessed Holy fire (30 cd)
Target an enemy and set them on fire, they take dmg over time, are slowed, can´t use any movement ability and lose one stamina bar, if the cleric is in blessing state it reduces the enemy spirit and bullet resisitance.
Cast range of 30m and duration of 4s
1. - 6 cd
2. After 1 sec, If enemys are 10m or closer (goes through walls) it jumps over to them aswell.
3. Radius to jump over goes up to 30m

Ability 4: Judgement (180 CD)
The cleric flies up to the sky (similar to abrams and seven) He then can choose an area on which a giant beam of light from the heaven strikes. this ability goes through walls. It deals dmg to enemys and heals allies. If the cleric is in blessing state, the blessing state will have cd refreshed (since you might lose some time before striking), enemys hit get silenced and teammates get spirit resist and bullet resist.
cast range 40m, buff and debuff duration of 5 sec
1. + 5m width
2. Cleric becomes unstoppable when he activates it until he chooses the location to hit
3. Enemys hit are blinded for 0.5 sec (like a flashbang in a shooter)
 
It would be neat to have a healing cleric (Could be Orthodox) to compare to the Catholic "IRA DOMINI!" Venator. He could also use his censer more and have it be his weapon (A mace censer that bellows smoke)

I think the kit needs some work.

1 - Is it an instant beam or is it like a circle AOE that fills up before the beam? If takes some seconds. If it takes like a second, it could be a way to force people to debate on either moving or taking the ability, knowing it buffs you. Though you say it gives you HP regen on hit, but the second upgrade says the same thing. Does it start with regen or not? Or is upgrade 2 just a buff to the regen?

2 - I like the idea of a self sacrificing heal. Venator had an old ability where he healed people with his censor, so maybe we could something with that. He raises his censer mace which bellows healing smoke.

3 - Is it a projectile or hitscan?

4 - I'm having visions of Overwatch. I don't know about this ability. I wouldn't put it in the game because I can see it being hard to react to (As you said, it goes through walls. With Abrams, you can get away and see where he's looking. Seven is super obvious. Do you just see the range like Seven's ult and your only option is to leave the entire area?).
 
1. the one is pretty much what ended up being celeste 3 abilities, like this was how I imagined it. Yes it is an upgrade to the healing
2. yeah that sounds good :D
3. it´s hit scan I imagined it to be similar to brand E from league, but I wouldn´t mind it to be a skill shot either.
4. it´s not dealing as much dmg and it can stay and deal dmg over time instead to not make it a burst ability. I imagined it kinda like a supportive Celeste 3, but I like the idea of it staying for some seconds and healing/dealing dmg over time so people have time to react and go out or in
 
since I have 0 art skills and I´m more of a thinker and writer, I created a picture with AI to atleast show how I would imagine his design, I think valve would be more creative my only wish is that his weapon is like the holy weapon in the picture since I love those I feel like they are super cool and I wish he could be a good character that just wants to do the right thing.Priest concept art (alpha).jpg
