"Better safe than sorry"
―Church Guy

Summary

The Priest is a humanoid Campaign NPC that helps you in Buried Alive. He appears in the church during Campaign and you must talk to him to wait for the Key.

Background Story

"The townspeople are starting to notice the disappearances around the town. I have a feeling that by the end of tonight, my work will never be completed. I'm not only worried about my people; most of my concern is the consistent movement of the landscape around us. Eventually, this town will fall and be buried underneath the ground, all alone, never to be submerged from its secrets. Tell me what I can do to finish my work as fast as possible. I am counting on you."

It's been a while. The town, buried deep within the earth, sat lonely in its underground cage. The Priest, having failed his mission to protect the town and its people, locked himself within the confines of the church, all the while pondering on his failures. However, he fought on, believing that God or something else will eventually bring salvation, freeing him and the town from its eternal prison.

Eventually, the liberation that the Priest desired finally arrived from the surface above, just as his mind continued to deteriorate from the loneliness of the zombified town.

Tips

  • The Priest will always trigger the church bell button while obtaining the escape Key, so be prepared to protect the door leading to him.
    • As the door is inside the church, the Priest is vulnerable from attacks from the Ticker and Brute.
  • Don't attempt to bring a Hammer to protect to Priest as the Hammer is banned from the map.
  • You only need to protect the Priest for 3 minutes. After you have grabbed the Key, you no longer need to defend him.
  • Make sure to have people to defend the Priest from outside the church. If any zombies enter the church, the people defending directly defending the Priest can kill them.
  • Abandoning your team while defending the Priest will drastically reduce the chances of the Priest staying alive.

Trivia

  • This is the second mob to not have any attacks, after the Target.
  • In the room where the Priest resides, there is a book with notes on it (transcribed above).
  • This is another mob that can speak English, and the only mob that directly interacts with a player with a conversation.
