    But, to be fair to spirea, undine strike only reduces resistances by 60%, and someone with a level 43 cleric's Magic Shell...

    Still no chance against a sutra combo.

    same thing can be said about a wizz.
    ToP, charm, HP restore pots, etc.
    We can go on forever.

    I don't know what level 30's you target, but simply popping sutra will not win you any fight at a decent level, you can get stunned out of it, you can die while doing it and honestly in most cases it won't kill your target either. Wizards will seal, clerics can purify your undine and heal themselves or put you to sleep, BM/Barbs can stun and have enough HP to tank a lot of it if not all if there's no crits, Archers can stun and have winged shell + wings of grace and you're **** if you waste sutra on an archer anyway. Veno's can stun/bramble.

    Do you even know what plume shell does? It's not going to do anything against a wizard using sutra, it does nothing for magic damage. It's only for Blade Tempest since it's half physical.
    Wondering how much longer these **** packs are going to be around.

    Clerics will more likely sleep ya, best to use adrenaline surge as you begin and hope they don't run out of range or kill you. Still Sutra's not great against robes.

    I didn't say the sutra combo it's flawless. But I do know that a succesful one kills any player (arcane with undine effect). Any class can get intrerupted, stuned or have its skill resisted (pots). All I'm saying is wizards are seen as being weak because they get their pvp skills at lvl 79. 90+ the wizard isn't weak at all.

    That is true. Plume doesn't block magic.

    You're not gonna tell me now that clerics can win against a wizard at 90+ like they do at lvl30.

    no, they obviously can't.
    But still they are a menace.
    Sleep/tempest does some nice dmg, problem is after the first hit the opponent wakes up. So it's not like u sleep someone for 30 sec and u have time to hit it with whatever during that. What sleep does is ensure the other is not attaking.
    Now, wizzies one awaken can FoW and the cleric wont attk for about 5 sec. We can squeeze some nice dmg in there, sleep at end and get another hit if needed. That's in theory without sleep res pots/genie , cause then the discussion becomes endless.

    Sins are Scissors. Psychics are Rocks.
    Archers, Venos, Barbs, Wizards, BMs, Mystics, Seekers are Paper.
    ...and Clerics are Mushrooms.
    Paper beats Rock. Scissors beats Paper. Scissors also happens to beat Rock...until Rock gets 50k+ soulforce at which point Rock becomes an unstoppable killing machine that beats Paper... and would beat Scissors but it can't find Scissors, because Scissors are invisible.
    So Scissors beat Paper and avoids Rock, and that is called BALANCE. -cheze

    Yes, they do.

    I don't believe it. Even in arcane, TT armors combined with physical ornaments and with demon earthshield wizards have more physical defense than magic defense. Plume shot and razor feathers become nonfactors even with demon/heaven spark. The debuffs of the cleric are not enough to lower any of the wizards defenses enough for a sure victory every time.

    In order to have your physical defence above magic defence, you'll have to really compromise hp for defence, unless of course you plan to up your armors past +7.
    Anyhow, how about I change my phrase a little:
    A 90+ cleric versus wizard battle is nothing short of a hiero ****.
    You can't kill him, and he probably can't kill you either.

    I avoid clerics for that reason.
    Most clerics around my level have 5.5k - 6k hp.
    That's like 8k with hp buff. Its way too hard to kill them.

    I agree with u on that.
    But what Temblor was asking in the end was if clerics have the same ease killing wizzies at high lvl as at low lvl. The answer that even u gave with the above quote is: no.
    These 2 chars are so equally matched at high lvls that unless one of them gets a lucky crit on a ultimate or spark or whatever, they will just waste time and hero trying to kill eachother.

    Ah, so I answered him without even realizing it.
    My apologies then.
    Yes, we give clerics a much harder time at the higher levels.
    I hope it gives y'all a lil more faith in the mage community now ;)

    So I was messing around with pretty much maxed out gear builds (not using rank equipment) and fully buffed a mage can have higher phys def than a blademaster that is not using alter marrow physical.

    the HP difference is obviously huge though. I was really bored 0.0
    I even messed around with a light armor Mage using about the same gear except slotted fully with HP stones and It had about 4k more hp 6% more critical, 4k less mag resist and 4k or so less base mag att. The phys defence was actually almost exactly the same.

    Turn on Heaven/Hell Magical Marrow.

    Heaven = 22k magic defense.
    Hell = 20k magic defenfese.

    No problem. Just wanted to point out that a wizard is not exactly weak when the good armors and weapons come out.

    Is it true a +12 rank 8 weapon on a wiz will hit 10k with gush? Or is it more like 5k? I mean without undine.

    3-4k would seem about right, to heavies at least. Without undine as well.
