    So many ways to play...so many ways to build.
    Just remember as clerics,we get the best per point usage out of the magic stat.
    Sure its nice to swing a big burly sword,or flail with your fists...Gah even I went with heavy armor for a while(early levels)

    Learn what works and what does not.I find that heavy armor is not worth the constant investment in strength to make it viable.Yes you get a small boost to melee dps but really.With Plume shot the way it is I can't see a point.Fortunately boosting my strength up just makes it easier for me to shift to light armor.

    Remember your main attack skills (plume shot,ect) will outstrip your melee damage all things being equal.Not having to be within claws reach is a ...humm...huge advantage.We don't get the same health pool as a BM/barb

    My advice is to look into the light armor paths...develop a few of the basic cleric attack skills and weigh them against your current melee build.Even if you go with Plume(counts as a physical attack defense wise),one of the magic spell skills (for +defense mobs).Dont forget your buff skills. +pdef+mdef+hp regen +Sprit regen and +mattack are all helpful buffs. From a solo point of view.

    I would say you are fighting one way or another if soloing quests and using robes.

    From the looks of it it is as though you are going more for an LA build.

    3 mag, 1 str and 1 dex every level.

    This in my opinion is not a viable build.

    If you want to stick to a more mag build, leave your str where it is as you will not need any higher for the rest of your Cleric life. Str does not really does anything for this class.

    All of a Clerics power is in Mag, so the less mag you have the less powerful your attacks and your heals will be b:surrender

    lol i 100+ str that gives me like 1.4k phys attack. Awesome when out of mana! b:shy

    Well..first off I'm a girl. ;]

    See, I could never be a full on cleric because I'm shy and keep to myself most of the time. If I wasn't self sufficient, I would never make it. But I like being able to occasionally revive someone when they really need it.

    First: If you are shy and keep to yourself then being a cleric is a good choice because people desire your help more often, enabling you not to have to work too hard for friends or squads to get things done.

    I'm relatively new to the game (this is my first character) but clerics are very self sufficient if you build them correctly. I'm 59 now and have solo'd my way there completely excluding some FBs and boss quests. Even a lot of the bosses I did myself most notably of which is probably Suzerix whom I did solo at 46 when i acquired the quest. I would doubt very much that there is any other class in the game that can do that, excluding possibly a veno or barb. My knowledge of other classes isn't that great yet so I'm not sure on that one.

    I'm a full mag build giving str only enough points to wear new armor as i level. Focusing on mostly attack spells, save Pureheart and Spirit's Gift and 'o wee bit of plume shell.

    Earliest levels are arguably the hardest because cyclones snare is unreliable and plume shell can get mana intensive. But work through them and the rest is gravy, once cyclone is level 7-10 you will never take damage from any normal mob unless you choose to do so. Kiting is your friend.

    Spirit Charms help immensely though >.> hp charms are meh, but as we know charms are expensive, if you have extra money though i definitely recommend one. especially in the early levels. A gold one can last a week give or take and make the lower mmore frustrating levels a breeze.
