    Pure Int (magic) --> 9 mag, 1 str every two levels.

    "+ Highly offensive build. Very low survivability. High damage and healing power.
    - 9 MAG
    - 1 STR"


    Or you could try this -->

    "+ Offensive build. Low survivability. High damage and healing power.
    - 7-8 MAG
    - 1 STR
    - 1-2 VIT"

    LA is Light Armor.

    Eh...there is some debate about Clerics having this build. You could find many threads and differing opinions on this.

    I personally do not think this is a viable end game build and takes away greatly from a Clerics attack and healing power.

    Essentially it gives more pdef and a better Crit rate. Archers and some Wizzies tend to follow the LA build. For every level is tend to be -- 1 Dex, 1 Str and 3 magic if a Cleric was to do this. For an Archer, the extras would be put into Dex for a pure Dex build.

    Depends, for maximum heals as well as maximum damage, Full Mag (9 Magic, 1 Strength every 2 levels). Heals are directly proportional to magic damage.
    For Maximum survivability, Full Vit (6 Magic, 3 Vitality, 1 Strength every 2 levels) Your heals are weaker, but you can survive longer.
    Now there is really no such thing as full support (Let the flame fest begin) because you will need to level up your attack skills. The reason is that you will be soloing quite a bit early on for your quests and such. Most people choose a hybrid of these two builds. If you decide to go full mag, you'll want to use HP shards and refine your gear to make up for the lack of HP.

    Full support cleric doesn't exist. All skills are cleric skills, balance them out.

    I suggest not trying to be "Full Support". Especially since your just starting out and you will have to level some sort of attack skill. I dont want you to get discouraged and quit the game. Clerics are some of the harder classes to level in this game, unless your like me (or the many other people) that have high lvl alts and got the money to get both HP and MP charms. With the charms on i got to lvl 50 in 3 weeks flat. Now, i suggest you read the guide at the top of clerics forum and follow his skill guidelines, Primary being the skills you should level up first. Secondary should be skills you level up only if there arnt any primary skills to level. (Now you can make exceptions to this, and level some secondary over some primary, i kno i definately did to get all my buffs) But all you will need is Plume Shot and Cyclone. Dont level any other attack skills until lvl 44 when you get Wield thunder. Now your going to have to get Thunderball and Sirens kiss in order to get wield thunder, but keep both of them at lvl 1. The only healing skill you will need to level past 1 is Ironheart Blessing. Thats teh only healing skill i used from lvl 1 to 49 when i got stream of rejuv. I only use ironheart because it is a stackable skill. Meaning that if it heals 500 over 15 seconds if you cast it once, when u cast it on the same target twice, it will heal 1000 over 15 seconds.

    (this was simply used as an "Example" i am not positive on the exact way it stacks)

    Full Support is pretty fail in my opinion.

    Arcane gear with hp sharps works better.

    Stat points, should be pure build or hybrid for more hp.

    La armor isn't worth wasting so many points for.

    Higher damage = better healing spells. Stay Arcane armor and just add some to vit every now and then.

    = Min. str to wear Arcane gear, Rest into Magic with the occasional points into vit.

    Fail otherwise. Just my opinion tho,
