You know I just thought, what would be awesome for clerics. b:surrender

We're sick of holy pathing after barbs in fc to heal and bb? Tired of having to kill mobs ro rez?

D< I wish some times clerics had a speed boost that kept up with a barb and that they could stealth to get to rezing without being killed D:

It would be cool right? XD

Let's keep this thread going with what else might be neat to have? b:chuckle

    Meh, too many people would whine about the stealth thing I know, but I'd love it if clerics got a speed skill. The only way I can keep up is with holy path, while everyone else has a skill. >.<

    Oh how I hated certain parts of FF, where I'd need to holy path twice just to keep up with the barb and then not be able to use absolute domain while BB was going up. :|

    they should learn to wait for the slower classes , that happens in BHs and TT as well.
    A reason im going to take Guardian Light as well as Wings of Protection at lvl 79 is just this

    Or... could do with a skill like genie expel that works on multiple friendly targets so everyone can't move while you buff them (with a loooong range) b:laugh j/k

    G Light isn't really efficient as a method of keeping up - cooldown is waaaaay too long.
    Holy Path and speed pots are your best bet.

    @OP - Barbs aren't the smartest of the classes...you may need to let them die to help in the learning process.

    Clerics are slow since they have ranged attacks. Meele have speed buffs, otherwise it would be too overpowerd. But HELL YEAH im dreaming of a Cleric on Speed :)

    I've always held the belief that the players are sadists due to the decision to utilize strategies that involve the slowest class trying to keep pace with the fastest.

    I had to restat my genie to be able to do two holy paths in quick succession to be able to catch those darn sage barbs. b:surrender

    I just started playing with the general mind of:

    1. If you run when I'm buffing you obviously don't need them that much.

    2. If you run before I am ready, I will do my best to keep up, but I can't change the cooldown of my genie skills or speed pots.

    3. Yelling at me to 'run faster' when you've done something stupid to get me killed after I have used my res scroll will be met with sarcastic remarks about hopping on my magical cleric rocket skates.

    lol "magic cleric rocket skates"

    i usually try to do a good job of making sure my team cleric has my 10minute 15% speed buff on at all times. although it annoys me when they holypath right after i cast it and completely ruin the buff

    (kind of like when low level clerics cast the hp/mp buff on me when i'm using focus powder)

    I always completely just burn through speed buffs people put on me. b:surrender

    I have to holy path so often its pretty much just wasted on me if I wanna actually keep up.

    I did have this great run where the archer kept accidentally putting that speed boost on me instead of himself in FC. I'd be like -run run run ZOOOOOOM!, overshoot the shade, hit the wall, put up a clumsy BB - "dude wtf was that?" "damn it! I had the damn cleric targeted!"

    -two minutes later after cooldown-

    -run run run ZOOOM!- "damn it not again!"

    i wonder what the devs were smoking when they decided the speed of the squishy squad healer that keeps everyone alive....

    "...maybe if we make this class the slowest, they'll find it fun.."
    "That'll never work, your an idiot."

    maybe they made a mistake and were supose to give us the veno speed but since they gave it to the venoby mistake and were lazy to change it back, they probably thought like pff nvm lets leave them slow now and add speed pots what makes them waste more moneys? o:

    But I like running at 11.5 m/s! D:

    TBH, the rest of us hate that clerics are slow runners (those of us that notice they lag behind, anyway). Although oddly enough, the last few times I've slowed down and stuck with the cleric I got yelled at for not running ahead and clearing the path. :S

    I tried giving speed pots too, but was told it was insulting. Maybe rocket skates are the next thing to try, rofl.

    It's a balance to achieve when running with squads. A barb friend of mine I used to run with often knew to allow me to re-heal before pulling the next wave, but he was also stong enough to start clearing ahead, and live until I could catch up for the next heal.

    Speed would be great, but tbh, us currently being slow can provide insight as to what kind of people we are grouping with. I always do my best to keep up. If a group member isn't smart enough to make sure they don't get in over their head before I can get in range, I know it's not likely someone I want on my FL b:laugh

    Squads aren't designed for everyone to run full throttle individually, part of being a good player is recognizing, compensating, and utilizing the different strengths & weakness of everyone in your team.

    If they run ahead and die because they thought I could heal them when they were down the block and around the corner, it's their problem. Fortunately, I don't usually have this problem with Barbs. They're usually considerate towards me and often wait until I'm within reach.

    Sins, on the other hand, run ahead by themselves and usually get themselves or the squad wiped or put me on crazy healing duty. Of course in the case of a wipe, it's my fault because I can't bust out a insta-heal all. After about two or three times I tell them to slow down. If they don't, I let them die and then I res them at my own leisure. There's nothing like death to slow somebody down. b:chuckle
