    Surely Sir, you jest!

    Every single cleric-less FC I would go in (not on my cleric obviously) would drain my charm or up my crabmeat usage way more than I'd like...

    Plus, a cleric makes the 2nd boss (and polearm boss) so much easier, unless you glitch I suppose.

    A seeker with BP + good chain-stun with BMs/psys + a decent mystic can do exp room just fine.

    Speaking as a cleric with a mystic alt though...I'd rather not do a normal FC as solo healer on mystic. XD

    Edit - But, no. They haven't lost their usefulness...it's just that you don't necessarily need them for the one part of FC people are usually doing. ((Though most of the shouts I see for it anymore say free to seeker/cleric.))

    Well, you didn't make that clear in your first post. I replied to what I saw ;)


    All of the clericless FC's I've done as a DD were god awful, though that could be my own personal retar.dation at playing a DD or the fact that our mystics sucked... But the EXP room is a pretty poor metric since it's a really easy part of FC :p

    A well geared seeker can BP tank it. Seeing as usually the mobs are stunned and Hf'd and die in under 5 seconds they dont need to take that many hits anyways.

    And last I checked "FC" doesn't mean only big room...

    Oh guise, I herd this rumor dat theirs more booses after heads?? Is dis trew???

    Clerics are still useful in fc as a whole, and also in the experience room. If the tank is not epically geared, then BB for the mobs, and RB for heads/cyclone.

    Are they required in the experience room for heads only? No. Then again, what class is required in there for heads only? Casters have a cast and channel time to worry about, which makes killing heads for them slower, but clerics are still useful.

    @Ariella: Yes. There are four more bosses after heads: Fragrance, Burning Phoenix, Holleen, Holeem: Champion of Frost.

    It was early in the morning and I was being helpful. Not to be rude, but its not exactly easy to randomly guess sarcasm from typed words. There a lot of people who actually don't know about the bosses after heads. b:surrender
