    At your lvl, I doubt any cleric use seals. People start using it later on, but still mostly for pvp and on bosses, not grinding mobs.

    If you're mainly a PvE Cleric:

    Eventually, you should invest in Elemental Seal (lowers m.def). In Twilight Temple (AKA HH or TT) runs, there are bosses with insane amounts of HP. Unless you want the fight to take forever, you'll want to lower these bosses' defenses!

    Venomancers (you should bring one of these with you on any TT run) can lower p.def very effectively using their Ironwood Scarab spell. However, it usually falls to the Cleric to lower m.def so that Wizards, Venos, and other Clerics can more effectively do damage! This is when you will want Elemental Seal leveled!

    But you won't get invited to TT runs until around level 60, so you have a long time to level Elemental Seal. Leave the others alone, though, at least until you have the coin and SP to spare! For regular grinding, Seals don't make enough of a difference that it is worth it to level them.

    If you're mainly a PvP Cleric:

    Here, defense-lowering Seals might be more worthwhile. Lowering someone's defenses lets you kill more quickly, but also leaves you vulnerable! So use Elemental Seal against Barbs and BMs, and Dimensional Seal against Clerics, Venos, and Wizards. Correct me if I'm wrong on any of this PvP stuff. I really don't fight other players very much.

    For any Cleric:

    Get at least one level of Chromatic Seal! This is your sleeping spell, which is a stun that lasts up to 12 sec at level 1! Pull aggro from the tank in FB? Sleep the mob! Fighting another player? Sleep him and run! Useful to have, but not necessary to max early on. Mine is level 1, and is still good enough for me.

    Hope all this helps!

    Like everybody else will tell you, get your seals later on. You wont have any real use for them yet. I use the def debuffs all the time in TT's and FB's now. I use sleep as a last resort if I pull aggro and paralyze has become a key measure to stop mobs from beating the veno's and DD's to death.

    I prefer to use paralyze over sleep because of the fast cool down compared to sleep., but only on melee mobs.
