edited January 2010 in Cleric
So every few levels, I come back to the forums to check my build. I do pretty decent damage but it still makes me uneasy to not know how I stack up with other clerics. I started out full magic but tried to follow the F.A. Cleric Guide (someone should have slapped me) somewhere around my early 50's.

So... stats - base (+from gear):
dex - 10 (+10) crit = 2%
str - 37 Phys Def. = 686
vit - 49 (+10) HP = 2010
mag - 234 (+3 ) MP = 5617

I've got my HH60 weapon (put a flawless Citrine in) b:shocked
My hits usually from 2.1k to 7k crits: plume is lvl 9, cyclone lvl 5. My 2 main attacks. All buffs are maxed. I've got all except the last 2 seals, No Wield Thunder or Tempest yet. My gear is a mix of 50's, 60's and 40's (3* with 4 sockets and one mold).

How does that sound? Is there something other than questing that I'm supposed to do?
Cleric Power! b:chuckle Clericism movement anyone? =D

    Anyways, looks fine with numbers tbh. There is nothing to indicate that you are on the wrong path. You will need to decide soon though what you want to do with your Vit. Are you going to cap it (like at 50) or are you going to add more.

    I HIGHLY suggest you max out Plume shot, Cyclone and work on getting Wield Thunder!! These are what Clerics mainly have to work with in terms of attacks. Tempest is usually a matter of Spirit, so you can hold off a little while.

    Have you gotten BB (Regeneration Aura)? If not I would HIGHLY recommend this too, as you are around the level where instances might call for BB.

    Also, how are the levels of your heals? IronHeart? b:surrender

    The main things you should be worried about maxing right now is -->

    Plume Shot
    Cyclone
    IronHeart
    WellSpring
    Wield Thunder (getting it)
    Plume Shell (if you have the extra spirit)

    To be honest, the rest can wait until you have the available spirit. Stream, Chromatic Heal and your debuffs will be used much more often later on, not so much now at your level. As such, those can be leveled based on the extra spirit that you may have. You will start to get more at you level and by around 8x, you will start to have enough Spirit to level the not-so-used skills.

    Also, by 7x you can start to AOE grind and as such Razor Feathers and Tempest will be a great asset to you.

    For the spirit, do your quests, crazy stone and BH's everyday. It give you adequte enough Spirit to get the above mentioned skills. b:cute


    PS --> If you have not done already...Purify your Weapon of the Citrine and put in a Sapphire shard, you will get more magic attack that way.

    Okie, I'll get them in that order then. I'm not sure how to purify my sword. I've been neglecting the CS (haven't done it since lvl 58 or so). I suppose I'll start doing it.
    AOE grind... how does that work? Yes, nub question but... yeah. :)

    If you go to the Blacksmith (any), there is an option to "Purify" equipment. Click that option and it will take out the shard you have in it. You will lose it completely, but a Citrine in your weapon just does nothing for you. b:surrender

    Doing your Crazy Stone will give you decent exp and spirit and is VERY easy. just pick it up and turn it in, during the 10minute wait, you can go quest or do whatever until you are back in the area of the NPC to turn it in.

    Nelae has a good beginners guide Here. Also, here is a higher level AOE Cleric Grind video, but the same concept applies.

    Thanks RedsRose!

    Nalae -- Up until my mid to late 50's... I never quested alone. I didn't do much damage, just lots of healing. Until RedsRose asked, I didn't even remember about Cyclone. I don't use it much cause it did crappy damage (now I know why). Thank you also. =)

    I too was a victim of the Full Atk cleric guide LOL

    Im trying to fix my mistake... Plume is max, Cyclone is max, all buffs are max, BB and HW... lvls 1 for both tempest and WT. IH is max, working on WellsP, and rez (lvl 5 at the moment). Im trying to make a full support cleric... I can solo for the most part... but my low vit makes it really hard against phy damage mobs... So im dumping all my points now into vit... I got enough mag for now =)
    b:victory
