    look at the other classes...epic expensive APS gear, 200k repair fees (per run!), $150 legendary pets...
    and the cleric: potions
    we got it easy enough xD

    Thats true but i still believe our old skills need to be updated with better animation, at the very least stop giving us that disadvantage when we use them. Sleep? Use it and we become too slow to move away from the target. Immobilize them and our attack power is lowered. Debuff them and we debuff ourselves. I mean come on! Our skills are way too underpowered nowadays.

    Correction, you only need bare minimum of 4.5k hp and 4k physical resist to solo FCC as I've done many times.

    mmm, I'm sensing my problem - my crappy (crappiest) gear gives my 3.2k hp and less than 1k pdef...... I have neglected it for many moons........

    Tks also for the previous info Futurelord, I will be working on things as a result.....

    EDIT - holy s**t. I just looked at your gear Future and I need to clarify, I will work on SOME level of gear improvement - I will NEVER have that gear you have......

    What i said before!

    Personally i consider Demon clerics to be outright stronger then Sage clerics, and so far the only comeback they have given me is that they can triple spark more.

    Edit: It may just be that she was lucky but a sage cleric used sleep on me 5 times and each time it lasted the full duration, she says sage sleep makes it last the full duration but there are errors with the description if that's true.

    MageMERC I dont have that gear yet, its a work in progress. For now im working on refining the cape and hat and then sharding both. After that i will move on to getting R9 as i already have R8. Cube necklace will be the last thing i buy and im in the process of upgrading my belt to Chaos. Its the Jungle Ruins belt. Alot cheaper to get and alot cheaper to upgrade.

    i have been with random squads since day 1, i now have a very large list of people i like to BH/TT with( cant FC atm) but unfortunatly i also have a large list of names to avoid... mainly from DDers who, like it was said before, dont know how to control their aggro.

    If i dont know the toons in the squad i am always wary but will give them the best i can( as i hope they would), i will normally forgive a mistake but being a dumba$$ and getting me killed is the quickest way to stay laying in the dirt.

    the biggest thing i have found is that everyone needs to talk about the instance BEFORE they start killing stuff, as "communication is the key"

    peace

    It takes away from the time we could be doing other things like healing or getting ready to nuke them. As we all know immobilize is underpowered on cleric since more then half the time it will wear off within 3 seconds even at max level. In those situations every second counts.

    Tho both my sleep and immobilize is demon i don't have to worry about the side effects, but when i'm comparing the basic power of it and the effect of the sage demon versions i cant help but notice how the newer classes have far better debuffs and without the negative side effects.

    Edit: As some examples. Blademasters have the leaping skills that works almost like wizards teleport skill. It will allow them to move even while immobilized. Teleport on a assassin and Seeker will also work while they are immobilized. The skill is becoming less and less useful as new classes come out.

    The power to reflect debuffs on self to target? The power to cause someone to kill themselves? Even with a healing skills? The power to send an attack right back at you? These new buffs and debuffs are considerably overpowered in comparison to our own. Its been said before on older threads and it still apply to now, old classes, especially clerics and barbs, need their skills improved.

    1st, I should have put it that I had the good skills lvl'ed by 70. For that, my bad.

    2nd, I kept dumping in spirit by doing all quests and grinding to get my skills lvl'ed fast.

    3rd, calling someone else's post "lies" without knowing that person...
    just makes you out to be... how do I put it.... FAIL b:chuckle

    4th, I would go up against you anyday in PVP. That is, when you're not too busy taking PVP lessons from levii... ijs.

    Awww ! I'm so touch u call me fail !

    But it was still a lie !

    Bring your +12 gear any time.
