If you have a lot of money it doesn't matter, just use oracles and hyper stones.
If you don't have a lot of money then cleric is easier to get into squads to lvl to 100 but archer is probably better at end game for nirvana squads due to aps. For sure their dps not the best but its better than clerics and nobody needs a healer in Nirvana t(-.-t)

On a side not Archers have way way way more fun in rpk and TW (my personal opinion of course XD)

Besides elf wings ftw.

Good At lvling Solo (grinding - Hyper grind - Oracles) = any class really.

Good at lvling in Squads = Cleric ( u are always needed , and even some Nirvanas squads want clerics in there)

Good at TW = depends on what u want , support for others or private killer. In private killing Both Archers and psys are good , with some difference , Archers tend to snipe enemy clerics , wizzies and any arcane or light user class. Psys tend to gang on barbs , heavy armor classes , and generally being the scary guys acting as scapegoats.

Farming = thats difficult , Psy and Archer can kill mobs 1vs1 really quick , with some AoE potential too. Cleric can grind poison mobs like hell. Also Cleric can find friends and run TT , which is quite profitable if done correctly. personally i would vote venomancer for this , but since it isnt in ur options , i would say cleric.

Good at TW? It's very gear dependent. However, archer or psy in this category.

Getting squads? Cleric

Good at farming?

Archer, if solo (though really bm/sin take the cake here since archers do not get BP and their melee DD is the lowest) (I'll put a nod toward veno as well)

Cleric, if squadded

Level speed? All identical

I'll just note that you listed a support class with two damage dealing classes. That will skew your results.

I love cleric, but as one you will deal with fails that if you're good are 1/3 your dd and 1/10 your tanking ability and like to cost you your MP, XP, and time. Sure you can get into FFC squads easy - because clerics are often so crapped on there that many don't want to do it. They get free revive; you don't. They can time hyper activations better; you can't. That said: I wish I'd made a cleric instead of a wiz to start. Clerics have a good mix of physical and magical attacks, aren't so -channeling dependent, have the buffs everyone wants, have a great array of heals, debuffs, purify, aoes, etc.

Never played an archer, but can tell you they're one of those classes that tend to **** others off. Nothing like being a melee and having an archer pull a mob from your atk range, or a fledgling arcane when an archer takes and keeps aggro on a boss that spams phys AoE when range tanked. They aren't desirable for caster or traditional nirvana even if they use claw/ fist (which are str based dmg while archers should stat for pure dex). Archers are mostly desired for glitching which is supposedly grounds for a ban even though 99/100 squads will expect it from you.

Haven't made a Psychic because it can't share weapons with my other arcanes. I see it's not as channeling dependent (has already low channel times) as a wiz (like cleric). It does get a lot more equips from Rank 8 than Archers and Clerics, but again; they aren't shareable with other arcanes.

Careful trying to heed tweakz (thumbs) rants from up on a pedestal, he has no idea what he's talking about.

OP. Having a psychic, archer, and cleric myself, I would suggest for diversity's sake an archer or cleric. But it really depends on what you want. Clerics aren't much damage dealers besides PVP. If you do PVE it isn't necessary to be so heavily refined, and even so, the onus is more on gear than weapon.

Archers endgame do outstanding damage with both fists and bow. They don't have a dedicated fist mastery, but like barbs, they have buffs to add to their damage to make it more comparable to BM's when using fists. A simple archer build will have enough str to use gorenox vanity's, deicide claws, tt100 fists, or any g13/15 Nirvana fist/claw. A truly diverse and useful archer will be using both bow and fist, and of the three classes mentioned, excel the best at farming, though need to be babysat more than the other heavy DPS classes due to not being able to get bloodpaint. Archers can AOE like a beast too.

At low levels the cleric is easiest to play for the sake of healing (archer becomes that when able to kill mobs before they ever reach you on a consistent basis), but note that the least costly to play during low levels is an archer since they get so many of the arrows they need just from drops.
