    Look at the stats. Particularly, the difference in defenses and attack/defense levels.

    Even though it is a necro, I'll leave it open due to the question at hand.

    Ok but u are R8 why???

    What is the difference between between this: http://pwcalc.com/5e348bfabf781f99

    And this: http://pwcalc.com/e2c873b91ffc5d70

    Well, first off you forgot to add +10 refines to the cape. But a few things to note, since PWcalc is down atm:

    -G16 Nirvana has a good 800 or so hp more at +10 refines. That's significant for a caster.
    -G16 Nirvana has much higher base defenses, which with cleric buffs amplifies even more.
    -G16 Nirvana has more defense and attack levels. Both will help increase your survivability.
    -G16 Nirvana looks pretty fancy, since you're into the looks of gear as well.

    I'm currently 5 pieces g16 Nirv with r8r def level wep and Cloudcharger cape because I am waiting on a rank sale so I can go r9rr. My reasoning beforehand for not going r9 was to have a good set of gear I could acc stash...which I guess it's worked out as now my mystic+mage+any other caster alts I make can still use my cleric's old gear which is "okay" while my cleric ends up OP as **** (...eventually...hopefully...). With NW now though, it'd be sorta dumb not to go r9rr.

    Anyway, I'm sure you can look at the numbers yourself to see the difference between g15 and g16 Nirvana. It is quite a bit of difference in terms of HP/pdef/mdef/matk and literally all you need to do is go into Warsong/Lunar to farm badges, molds, and essences to get that upgrade.

    Ok so if I farm Warsong I can get that G16 gear very easily but what will the minimum gear to farm it like R8 or TT99 something that I can work with something that is cheap as temporary gear

    You could use +5ish or so R8/Tier 2 Nirvy gear and that should be fine for the time being.

    As a cleric you'll probably be duoing a pavilion with someone else, so it'll be less strain on your part.

    Ok I will probably go with the R8 cause then I can just Recast the Weapon to have my weapon so then have +5 gears will be sufficient and I could do it with a Mystic friend or another cleric or Eoria is she wants to play with a noob clericlike me b:thanks
