Useful Info
Orc priests introduce smiting into the game at levels where smiting is scary. So long as an orc priest is visible, it is capable of instantly dealing 7-17 damage to you in a single turn. Even worse, they usually appear along with a pack of orcs, orc wizards, and orc warriors, and can appear as early as Dungeon:2.
Hill orc characters will immediately be given the opportunity to convert to Beogh upon encountering an orc priest for the first time.
Spells

| Slot3 | Cantrip |
| Slot4 | Smiting (7-17) |
| Slot5 | Heal Other |
| Slot6 | none |
Tips & Tricks
- Orc priests can be neutralized by hiding from their line of sight (they will try to rush you if they can't smite you), making them confused/paralyzed, or trapping them in a throwing net.
- Avoid fights where they get to cast against you for several turns while you have to chop a path through their allies.
- Very early characters may wish to avoid them entirely, if they don't have an easy way of killing them quickly. If you see more than one priest at a time, start running.
History
Prior to 0.13, hill orc characters had to either begin the game as a priest or find an appropriate altar in the Orcish Mines to worship Beogh.
