Wizard, Blademaster or Cleric?

Since wizards are able to attack they long and deal massive damage, can't they kill a monster before it hits them?

Since blademasters can use heavy armor they have the most def., but they are always fighting in the front, attracting agro and getting hit a lot.

Cleric can basically just heal, but will it help in the midst of combat?

    From around lvls 10 to 40 for my cleric, I died quite often. Usually only takes 4 hits to kill me (even less due to the bug where monsters can get a last hit on you after they die).

    After lvl 40ish, my HP started to catch up and magical mobs are more common so I can take around 10+ hits.

    At lvl 60+, I don't die anymore unless I do something really stupid like pulling 20 poison/wood mobs and find out that my magic buff ran out or attempting to solo/tank magical bosses.

    Edit: I wear robes.

    Then again, I think it depends on the factors. PVE or PVE? Magic or Phys mobs?

    If your talking about your everyday solo questing/grinding, I'd say blademaster.
    This is due to their high defense, great sutra skills for even more defense, and their self-heal skill.

    Warriors are stronger in general
    reasons, they can tank damage and kill fast
    they can wear both light and heavy armor, so in pve, while up against non elemental they can use heavy nd for elemental they can use light.
    they got alter magical marro skill, which + LA is pretty good in pve.

    But wizards at higher levels are very good in pve...

    in pvp i would say a LA mage lasts longer. If you know how to play one. Or again, the warrior is better chain stuns and blade warriors are a force to be reasoned.
    I was going to post a reply... then I realized, you would likely reply in anger and insult me, to which I'd most likely respond with a wittier comment or slay you with a macro and then, onlookers, seeing that comments had been made, would interpret the traffic as interest, thus earning you attention you don't deserve for your **** post. So, when you DON'T see a comment from me, THAT is me saying "FAIL" in a much more effective manner.
