    Basic spells like pyro and gush, with the same build and weapon, will rival the damage of cyclone and plume shot (without considering elemental defense). The main difference comes with a) 300% weapon damage + xxxx damage nukes, b) 500% weapon damage ultimates (higher base damage on the skills as well) and c) various elemental advantages/undine strike

    Hm, I'd say with the Spammable Skills like Gush and Pyro, They'd do around the same DPS tbh (Not counting Undine), (and if the Cleric has there own MAtk buff, and the Wizard does not)

    Cleric's Have there own MAtk Buff, but there isn't a Mastery for Plume **** (Unless, Metal Mastery affects Plume?) So that could be up to 25% less damage for Plume Shot, but perhaps the MAtk Buff could bring Cyclone's power up to match DPS of Wizzy Skills? Of Course, if the Wizard was Buffed too, his DPS and DPH would be quite a big higher.

    It's quite obvious that Wizards will always hit harder than Clerics with Nukes.

    With my crappy LA Build (Crappy in PvE really) I hit what..8k With Gush/Pyro? 12k+ with Nukes? Can't quite remember lol...

    Wep. Atm is Aquaride +3 with 2 Immaculate Sapphires.

    EDIT: 25% Less Damage for Plume Shot over something like Gush or Pyrogram,

    with same weapon same build cleric's damage is same as wizard.
    Don't start bullcraping around with unbuffed clerics and wizard with undine. A cleric will always be self buffed, unless it's played by Yulk. A wizard will be mostly unbuffed.
    Pure mag clerics hit just as hard as wizards with spam skills. The have quite a good AOE (Razor F) that doesn't require spark with a pretty decent cooldown. Self purify, self heal, plume shell, sleep, freeze, pdef/mdef debuffs. In the hands of a good player, a scary PvPer.
    Unfortunately all the above was the state of game before 5aps/Rank9 and other **** like that. Now a cleric is good for BB and buffs and healing slave for R9s in TW.
