Who is more expensive Cleric or Venos

And the point of this thread is?

oh yea, gives me +1 post count. b:cute

If you have put the same effort into veno that you have put into your cleric so far you would be far beyond the point where you are right now.

Venos cost ALOT less, u don't necessarily need the best weapons/armour or legendary pets to be able to do things that clerics do, plus they have low repair bills and low charm (if at all) and potions usage. By the time I hit lvl 40 on my veno i had over 1 mil in coins and that was after upgrading several skills and pet skills. I know i haven't lvled it much higher but I know several venos who spend literally nothing while grinding, killing bosses, etc.

some ppl forget that legendary pets dont eat water,... they need expensive foods

And some people forget you can buy a tome for 500k which keeps your pet permanently fed. Providing you don't completely and utterly fail, you shouldn't have to spend much on loyalty.

On topic: Speaking as a 9x cleric and an 8x veno, venomancers pretty much don't have costs.

The only people who will say venomancers have costs are people who only have a venomancer as their only char.
"Skills are expensive." Reality check, other classes have skills too, most of which they actually have to max, unlike a veno who has like 10 skills they actually need (speaking for the cookie cutter caster build which 90% of the venos use).
"Pets are expensive." Once in a lifetime fee of 20-30 mil for a herc, which you don't actually need but are expected to have because it became a social norm. Boo hoo. When I actually played actively I spent that much on gold charms in little over a month.
"We gots to buy expensive food." QQ moar and stop failing so hard. Daily barb repair fees cost more than you should be spending on meat in a week.

Needless to say, they cannot even begin to comprehend the day-to-day costs other classes have, especially barbs and clerics.

Take grinding for instance. Thanks to metabolic boost, nature's grace and soul transfusions, venos don't need charms or pots. At all. I got mine to 86 without ever using one. Hardly any repair fee as you seldom get hit. No ammo costs. Any and all drops you get result in pure profit.

As a cleric, you need mana to grind. Cheapest source of mana is a gold mp charm, which costs 500k. By the time it's gone, when you add in repair fees, you're lucky if the drops leave you with any profit at all, most of the time you just about break even.

Then you have TT. A gold mp charm lasts me on average 3 2-3 runs, 2 if we don't have a veno to tank some of the bosses. So every 3 runs, a veno saves 500k compared to a cleric. And when you start farming TT on a daily basis thats a whoooole lotta munies a veno saves in comparison to a cleric. Not to mention it's usually us who get to heal their soul transfusions.

Long story short, day-to-day upkeep costs of a cleric are nearly enough to fund a legendary pet every month. So the next time a veno tells you they have (high) costs - bitchslap them.

veno = cheaper. Who else has a 25k repair in a complete gamma run? b:cute

its extremely cheap for both classes really if u farm herbs, especially in hell b:chuckle

That depends on if you are content to be a squishy cheerleader for a Herc or if you are a Veno who can tank a boss yourself if need be and is not afraid to mess it up with a group of baddies.

In conclusion, price is dependent upon how you play the game not which class you have.

Big IF.
You guys get a choice. We dont.
As long as there is someone out there attacking that is non-pet, our mp drains whether its a potion or a charm. Every cleric that has gone TT2-2 and up will look at you like you belong in the loony bin if u say cost is a matter of play.
