Clerics get a fraction of what damage dealing classes get on event days

It sickens me to hear that clerics aren't allowed to heal themselves much cause they spend less on health potions when event day drops are based upon kills, which means the damage dealing classes get way more drops and wealth than clerics get. Can't heal self in game or in PvP for some lame excuse as gold, while non cleric classes up their health easily through dailies and attacking.

At least you guys still have a place in every Dungeon. People are starting to realise you still don't actually need a tank.
Rewards from the event aren't based on kills. If you do ANY damage to the mob, you get the same chance at a drop from it as anyone else.
Any level 20 cleric is better off in this event than a level 60 GF or TR.
Use Sunburst, Chains, Glow, Daunting Light.... ANY of your AoE skills.
Healing... in this game.... is an issue but its not preventing you from getting loot. Its a lot better than nearly ZERO healing for everyone else.
Also, gold is not wealth. Gold is virtually worthless, all you buy with it are injury kits and those only if you do difficult group content a lot. An hour of solo play here and there more than covers this, or doing leadership quests. Gold just piles up ... no use for it.
Couple of times in the event, 3 clerics put chains on the spawn portal at once, mobs spawn and die instantly, and ONLY the clerics get any loot.
clerics will also fair way lower on the dungeon rating charts, which means they don't get as good as rewards, nor do they tend to win blue items in PvP as often
that is BS from what I can tell, if I do damage in the mobs but don't get kills I don't tend to get anything at all, perhaps on the bosses I might but upon nothing else, but even if what you claim is true playing around CW's often mean they kill everything enmass before you even get an attack, especially if they keep setting endless avalanche
That leaves everyone with nothing to hit, so no drops, maybe one for the spammer.
I found with my CW the best rate was with Icy Terrain and Chilling Cloud and only make huge explosions when we are getting overwhelmed. Just low level AoE damage and let the grunts do the running
TIP:
Those scrolls you get do only little damage, but in a wide area and last a decent while. It's a nice way for any level to get some damage in.
Regardless of class, if you have a fast mount and just run around capping points, you will be on top of about 7/10 games. Of course this is boring as all get out.
I will say on my CW I can do the same thing and pretty much get top score on every game. Just swing by the big fight while flipping points and get some bonus kills.
thanks for the tested feedback... and I'm also guessing the enchantment rank is also affected
there aren't any healers in this game... if you think there are you haven't seen the <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> spells that this game calls healing (any health potion will heal you for more and faster)
We didn't specifically track this, but our mage commonly get up to 4 rank 4 per match, where my healer gets about 1 rank for every 4 matches.
Indeed.. pointless to fight others in this form of "pvp" even more so for a healing class that cant really heal (how would he if ppl oneshot or twoshot eachother constantly ^^) Hope something changes there,else i either turn into a botter
Anyway,as for the event.. clerics still have it better then TRs from what i experienced on mine atleast.. So meh,its more AoE rules over Single target,this time.. anything else is clearly dps > heals..
And people wonder why it's hard to find a cleric when they want to run dungeons.
mine rarely gets rank 4's, usually has to combine rank 3's... its at level 60 and has decent cleric gear
Party with a wizard and a rogue gg .
makes you wonder how screwed over low damage classes such as the cleric is in terms of treasure, enchantments, and all around wealth all the time they are leveling up and how this likely makes the cleric even less competitive at level 60 due to lack of comparative gear unless cash bought
as far as playing around a mage, I hate it as a cleric in the event area, they do so much damage and kill so fast I barely get any drops relative to when they aren't around
Me thinks someone is doing it wrong.
what level of enchants are you receiving and how many of them are high level... this question is what we have been trying to address here ... at level 60 I'm coming nowhere close to 4 level 4's per instance that mages evidently are able to get
And i've only been doing this a few hours a night, for the last 3 nights. Hardly grinding by anyone's standards.
Apparently, u can get blue dog from the bag too (got 2 yesterday. both from the bag). So you should try your luck there
evidently you are doing something right cause I can only make two rank 6's, though it didn't help that around 57 of 60 attempts from rank 4 to 5 failed (60% success rate, yeah right)
I'm the same way, I never win item rolls anymore. Might as well not be part of any group, sure wouldn't affect what I get any.
