Cleric PVP epic gear questions

Hey guys, I was wondering about the cleric epic items, and I'm a little confused here, hope the more experienced clerics can help.

When I start playing, I looked for the cleric best stats for PVP, and always find defense, regeneration, deflect and recovery as the best stats for a cleric in pvp.

Looking at the gear, T1 and T2 PVP, the stats are:

T1:
+1252 power
+1252 recovery
+945 defense
+779 life steal
+11 AC

T2:
+1322 power
+1322 recovery
+990 defense
+1047 life steal
+12 AC

Then this come to me, why cleric gear have life steal? I can't see it working good for clerics as for dps classes. Does it really works for clerics in pvp?

With the data I gather till now, I start thinking that cleric's best pvp gear are blues oO

Please brothers in faith, enlight me! lol

Thanks again guys!

    Yes, it is indeed. Blues with Regeneration and Defense. Until they either remove Righteousness (so that big heals would affect yourself a lot), or they re-design the epic sets....blues will outperform epics for DC PvP.

    Life steal is almost useless since most of the times you are getting focused and pop stuff to survive. One can argue that You can Astral Seal/Brand of the Sun and watch your life ticking back, but that's not the case.

    Lol really not the case. Life steal is useless for clerics, even with "DPS spec". Man, I can't believe it lol! Now I got to get a full bloonie for pvp lol!

    Indeed. I followed GCTRL's build and got entirely bored of it. Then I thought I would give an epic set a chance, and I am now roaming PuGs with Divine Emissary.

    Have you tested with Miracle Healer's or Grand Templar's set?

    Only Miracle Healer. It's OK, but Emissary's bonus also helps passively the people that you want to keep around you (high def, high deflect) and 31% crit chance of Emissary's gear allows me to spec into Restoration Mastery for more Def.

    Nothing ground breaking, but at least I get to roll a DC that uses Wisdom over lolDEX.
