    Nah you choose to post and continue this argument, I guess I like to see people express their opinions, Instead of a level 80 coming up and saying "this is better than that debate over"

    People throw a pile of **** at me then I'll take that pile of **** and throw it right back because that is just my personality.

    Also as for what you said remember this, I don't reframe to "personal" insults I believe that is preschool ****.
    What I don't understand is rather than calling me and idiot wouldn't it be better off proving me wrong with facts?
    Actaully if someone posts an actual fact about Mages being better than clerics then they will have my respect, I never insulted you at the beginning you insult me and with that said I repeat "throw a pile of **** at me then I'll take that pile of **** and throw it right back"
    Let me make a start for you,

    The topic was never about FACs. It was clerics vs. mages, as stated in the title. And by the first few posts, any intelligent reader should also figure out that it is comparing similar build for stats at the same time, otherwise comparing skills like it did is worthless. So full mag cleric vs full mag wizard, or vit cleric vs vit mage.

    The first thing to derail this to even including FACs is Rundora's post which is #10. Ever since mid 40s I stopped referring to my cleric as FAC since I leveled my IB and pulled healer duty on most fbs. Started saying assault cleric, attack cleric, or battle cleric since I prefer damage, but understand I can assist over-all party damage more by tossing off heals or using celestial skill buffs to achieve more damage than a simple FAC mentality.

    So if you want to talk about FACs, then you are right in that they hold no place in TW, or groups. They are a solo style build, and will out-pve level most if not all builds by virtue of self-buff dmg and solo AoE. Doesn't mean that duo combos or zhen party can't beat them though. A FAC is for solo play, though can sub in for DDs. But if they sub in a cleric, why not take a small hit in damage ability and grab a cleric that did level buffs and revive.

    Maybe people saw the phrase attack cleric, mentally added the full before it, and then felt the need to rant and wail about that. Maybe should just switch to full mag builds that prefer damage as assault clerics instead of attack or the more misused FAC to prevent mislabeling. Some kid will whine about yet another new label, but he prolly gets beat on in HS, so it works out.

    a wizard and a cleric are equal in ability. a cleric is defensive, a wizard is offensive. a cleric has heals, a wizard has attacks. a wizard out damages a cleric. a wizard dominates 3 elements, a cleric dominates 1. a cleric cannot 1 hit a wizard, a wizard can 1 hit a cleric. what are we getting at? the wizard will win if you let them, the cleric will win if you let them. it doesn't matter, it's whoever got the jump on who.
    People throw a pile of **** at me then I'll take that pile of **** and throw it right back because that is just my personality.
    what? this doesn't make any sense. explain your logic.

    reframe? personal insults? preschool ****? what? you lost me.

    i never called you an idiot, but i could if you want.

    it has been posted that wizards are a great deal stronger, but people only look at ults. let's look at some lower skills here people, clerics only have 1 level 49 attack(wield thunder) and it's not that great. show me facts that a cleric is better. the only thing we got is a physical plume shot and wield thunder. ultimate's aren't there in a 1v1, time to use one is often not given.
    Let me make a start for you,

    wizards have both physical and magic damage, this isn't exclusive to only priest.

    i'm listening, explain.

    i thought you didn't take insults personally?
    4) You are correct you never called me an idiot you called me a fool - otherwords an idiot
    Definitions of fool on the Web:

    # make a fool or dupe of
    # fritter: spend frivolously and unwisely; "Fritter away one's inheritance"
    # a person who lacks good judgment
    # gull: fool or hoax; "The immigrant was duped because he trusted everyone"; "You can't fool me!"
    # chump: a person who is gullible and easy to take advantage of
    # horse around: indulge in horseplay; "Enough horsing around--let's get back to work!"; "The bored children were fooling about"
    # jester: a professional clown employed to entertain a king or nobleman in the Middle Ages
    5) We have Razor feathers as well - twice as good as plume
    and 3x the channeling/casting time. often enough, when faced off against a wizard, you'll just be fow'd out of it.
    6) Umm look at what this thread is for dude! when I said argument I ment between you and me not between clerics and mages, you simple minded hippo. be quiet
    again, what? if you're going to try to mimic me, do it correctly. and, if you're going to whine about what you call an unnecessary insult, don't try to insult me. hypocrite. why don't you just stop posting?

    how would you know our emotions? we could be as giddy as a bunch of little school girls.
    1) Wizards have BT which is half physical - plume shell, no?
    a wizard could cast force of will, a 5 second seal, which will give them enough time to cast blade tempest and release its full fury upon you. they aren't going to use it while you have plume shell out.
    2) Basically you wanna diss a cleric i'll diss a mage?
    i'm not "dissing" a cleric, i am a damn cleric you idiot.
    3) I said it was unappropiate - never said i took it personally
    you did take it personally, hush.
    4) Fool - *A person who is easy to take advantage of* *A person who lacks good judgement* that would be an idiot
    fine fine, so be it. from now on i'll refer to you as an idiot. idiot.
    5) So I assume you never used Razor feathers and sleep? - Fail
    why would you waste your sleep for a measly ~1,500 damage? you're just hitting their charm, which, odds are, all they have to do is use fow and blink and its already cooled down.
    6) Honestly I don't know what you are complaining about here
    i'm not complaining, you are. now, please, for the love of god, do everybody a favor and shut up.

    forp is right...
    wiz has force of will to silence opponents and we also have a sleep spell that is INSTANT! so either works and if you try to sleep a wiz more than likely they are gonna sleep you first. oyasuminasaib:chuckle
    i see why forp is in the wiz forums. He supports wizzes. WTG FORPb:victory
    cleric can never outdamage a mage and that is a fact of life. i dueled my friend at lvl 51 and i was lvl 40 and i brought his health down by half even though he spammed ironheart before the duel. He was even healing through the duel but i still lost but i kicked butt doing it.

    Instead of fighting, lets just team up and call it a day. A lot of wizzes moves really shine with a cleric,like dragons breath. If a cleric heals the wiz can last all day(with MP charms etc)
    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

    Eh.......

    Right after the sleep is done, most likely you would get sealed. So that wouldn't really work.

    Cleric USUALLY beats wizard. By usually I mean 9 times out of 10. But pit a wizard against a BM or Barb, and it'll tick its charm a lot faster than a cleric can.

    wizard is the most expensive class for a reason. we need all of our skills(some exceptions) if a wizard has a up to date skill set he shouldnt have any trouble especially at lvl 80+ that is where wiz gets really fun to play.
    as for outdamaging, pandora a LA wiz did 25,xxx damage at lvl 90. Lets see a LA cleric at lvl 90 beat that lolz

    Most expensive? Really?

    I don't go through charms NEAR as fast as any other class, whether it be in TT or Zhen parties, and I find saving money isn't much of an issue.

    wizards aren't more expensive to play, but their skills surely cost a lot. an ult cost 4,060,000 coin to max. you have 3 of them. and you have a lot of mid-level nukes that fall between that, and important skills that are vital for your survival.

    wizards are definitly pricy.

    Lolwut? Maxed razors deals just the same damage as two maxed plume shots - and every decent wizard of +/- same lvl and equipment (I was 70lvl FAC) need at least THREE plume shot (2nd sparked of course). That is without charm, with it on - five. Only when razors crit you can PROBABLY bring down a wizard with one shot. (Or when wiz is full mag with really ****ty equipment, but I do not consider that.)

    This is the part where I usually facepalm but to be honest I could see that coming.

    The truth does smack most in the face.

    Let's take a simple spell...Ironheart. At level 10 it heals 714hp + 30% of your base mAtk.

    Need a calculator or does your genius force you to admit that a full Mag cleric will heal more than a non-full Mag cleric?

    well forp how come clerics are buying fancy stuff with their money, oh wait nvm i figured out why, stupid guild and your damn pricesb:chuckle


    but seriously, wiz does more damage than a cleric and FAC heals more just cause of "base magic attack". i wonder if a wiz uses iron heart how much will it heal(heals 25k Hp lolz jk)

    wow such long topic.

    A few things, the one that said that pure magic clerics are sucicde is an idiot, I have 420 magic, 20 vit (bonus included, my base vit is 5), almost 2.7k hp (3.2k if I replace garnets for citrines but I dont wanna xD) and almost 2.7K def (3.6k with golden bell and yes I use robes, steepenwolf is my actual armor) I am VERY hard to kill, my heal is next to almighty, and so is my damage, the monster has to either 1hko me ( and for those that can do it I have gears to prevent them from doing it cough saky with citrines, cough spare gear with +defense +hp and/or citrines cough) or deal really large damage (close to 60% of hp) to stand a chance.

    I dont care about pvp at all, but the comparison between wizard and clerics is stupid, wizards has their pros and cons same with clerics, in pve wizards are better DDs because they have access to more elements and can have elemental advantage while the cleric is limited only to wood.

    Another thing is the reatrded FAC or any other stupid build, build the damned character the way you want, read the skill description, build the character the way you like, whoever posted that clerics should not be healing is an idiot too.

    Understand your place in a party/squad/group, I am 88 and If I go to a FB with a level 60-70 wizie will I DDs while the wizie heal? no, I will heal and the wizie will DDs, if there are more than one cleric in the party, then one of them can too DD, if you are selfish and you dont like to heal (not even yourself ?)and think DD is your thing and you can solo everything, you should not have picked a cleric.

    look here EP are mostly heal based, they don't have much attacks and some attacks require time to cooldown(except plumeshot have fastest cooldown), while mages have tons of attack options + they have more elemental skills unlike Ep only have Metal

    IT DEPENDS. Cleric can't outdmg a wiz against, say, water mob, especially if wiz have undine strike. No one can, in fact. So archer and veno are not DD anymore? ROFL. Take BM with maxed marrow magical on, what can wiz do if he does not have 2 sparks? Now cleric easily outdamages wizard with just a plumeshot.
    look here EP are mostly heal based,
    Yeah, thats why cleric have wield thunder and tempest. To heal better. Lol. Cleric have MORE attack spells than healing ones. I don't tell you that cleric is not healer, but so don't tell me that "cleric is healing based and is not attacker" sh*t. "Healing-based" char cannot wipe out fb faster than wizard and cannot bring down enemies in pvp in two shots.
    they don't have much attacks and some attacks require time to cooldown
    ROFLMAO. Time to cooldown, what a surprise. You want to tell me that wiz (or any other class) have attacks that do not require cooldown time?
    while mages have tons of attack options + they have more elemental skills unlike Ep only have Metal
    This is not exactly true. There are more attacks, yes. But not THAT more. Wizard cannot spam attacks of some chosen element, except of earth, so in PvE he really outdamages cleric only against metal and water mobs - two of six types. And wiz is totally helpless against magical resistant mobs. In pvp, wider choice of elements is not an advantage at all. What makes wiz POTENTIALLY better dmg dealer in pvp, it is essential sutra for insane spike damage. But in fact it is not about char skills, it is about player skill. Wizard that uses sutra here and there when it is not needed is far worse DD than thinking cleric that wisely uses his debuffs and attacks and shield and whatnot.
