Cayeon's Guide on Full Attack Clerics

Here's a question- any advice on how to protect yourself/handle PKers while trying to level an ATK cleric? Yesterday I was in the Heaven's Tear area and at least 3 different PKs showed up and killed me, the archer I was squadding with, and everyone else around, it seemed. This was my first encounter with PK, and I'd like to know what I can do. In Heaven's Tear, two attacked me at once, and I figure one of them was at least 10 lvs above me. I'm now a lv 31. I got killed several times. It took 2 shots to kill me.

Thanks, cayeon, this is the kind of information I was hoping to get.

My little adventure did motivate me to do something about my low health. I was wearing an HP seal at the time, but still got killed in 2 shots. The first must have been a stun, because it didn't break the seal. At any rate, I nearly emptied my in-game cash buying 3-star armor and equipping it with the highest lv citrine shards it would take. Also bought the fastest wings the CS offers for my lv. Glitter flaps look a little silly on a male character, but they go fast, and the only other thing I see to help this is use a widget, but I don't know what to do with that yet.

I'm glad you're still monitoring the thread because it gives me the opportunity to thank you for making this guide available. It gave me some understanding of the type of strategy this game offers as well as inspired me to take the challenge of playing this type of character. I don't know yet whether I'll find myself proficient enough to do it justice, but I'm having fun giving it a go. I think if I can get it into the 50's, I'll start to see the potential grow.

I took the time to make a spreadsheet of all the skills along with comments from your guide and projected skilling/leveling for the next 10 levels. I probably don't have exactly what you had in mind, but it at least gave me the opportunity to roadmap a plan in developing my character.

I noticed a skill come up that isn't mentioned in the guide, nor does it appear in the skill tree in the game. It's called:
Spark Eruption- discharge 1 spark to acquire 200% extra physical attack from weapons for 10 seconds & become invincible for 1 second aftger the discharge.

I skilled it since it only cost 8 spirit (yes, 8). Since it uses one spark, I haven't tried it out, but I wondered if you or anyone else knew anything about it. Is this a new skill, or have I overlooked something?

The description of spark eruption is wrong, it not only gives an increase in physical attack but also greatly increases your magical attack! I always use this skill on a mob with +hp or just before a wield thunder in PVP, since I dont have tempest yet and dont have any other uses for my spark.

Thanks for your very clear answer Cayeon! I'll go with the seals!

Cayeon, mostly stuck to your guide. Am up to level 64 now and it's great.
I did notice something. When I cast chromatic seal on someone during a duel and then proceed to cast elemental seal debuff, they wake up. I thought they were suppose to stay asleep until I actually damage then? From the looks of it, they seem to wake up even if I debuff them.

Thanks for the reply Cayeon. I did not realize that the debuffs can wear off before the xxx seconds. And yes, my chromatic seal is only at level 1. I'll level it up more.

cayeon, I'm sorry I'm still very new here. I want to ask you. I've read in this thread that weapon type really is up to somebody's preference. but how about the requirement?
most of the magical swords require str to go up to a certain point. is that only true to some magical sword or is that true for all magic swords?

I saw your stats that you put everything into MAG, so how do you equip all the other equips? armor, shoes, gloves, etc need str requirement too...
can you please give me more info about this?

thank you very much Cayeon

This inspired me... I started making a full attack cleric. It's at level 9 at the moment. Really, great job on the guide!

That was REALLY inspiring... and it lead me to make this account
So far I'm enjoying it, but then again, it's only level 13.... So I'll see in a bit.

Thanks for writing this guide!!

I'm a full attack cleric too, but find I can easily take on the role of support cleric when needed. I did lvl my pdef and mdef buffs to 10 and ironheart blessing to 8, which is all I need to be support.

Off course I'd rather deal damage, but when me and my guildie's we're doing some HH60 runs I had a tank and some dmg dealers but no extra healer, but I was easily able to get my party through it.

So this class is more flexible then I thought, people don't even complain that much about my res being lvl 1!

You're essentially through the part that I'm finding a challenge. If you don't mind, what did you skill in the 40s, and then in the 50s? At what point did you feel like you could effectively handle the support role?

In the 40s I put my main focus on the skills Cayeon advises (spirits gift, cyclone, plume shot, plume shell, metal mastery) and lvld the pdef buff and ironheart whenever I had leftover sp. I only lvld ironheart to the point at which it could effectively heal myself. Then, at lvl 49 I got a LOT of sp from the cultivation quest so I maxed the pdef, got some points into the mdef buff and got ironheart to 6 or 7 (cant remember). Then in my 50s I got ironheart to 8, maxed the mdef buff, got metal mastery to 5 and started to lvl Chromatic seal while always keeping wield thunder maxed.

I think I have been able to take on the support role from the point I had ironheart at like lvl 5-6, since it stacks it doesnt matter much what lvl it is if you spam it, except for the range.

hi im a cleric and i dead much u we know some for not dead ?b:sad

I forgot to say that I also got elemental seal to lvl 6 in my 50s, then got it to lvl 9 with the sp from my 59 culti, a lot of which I also used for chromatic seal. (I didnt have enough sp to keep it maxed for my lvl until lvl 59, and I got the first 2 lvls of it at like lvl 56, not right away at lvl 50).
