    simple conclusion from what i wrote above is: if 100vit and barb buff wont help u at all in other instances -then why bother both on lower ones?
    imagine all classes nerfing their build to make from themsleves semi-tanks to do stuff rofl and refuse to use skills to survive

    JanusZeal has chosen his style of playing, so calling his build a waste does pass some form of judgment. I don't know if he's written any guides or stuff like that, but fellow clerics would be able to read up on the many guides available and decide their paths themselves. So I doubt it's a worry whether or not he criticizes other builds.

    That aside, I mostly agree with your logic for a cleric build. In fact, both my archer and cleric are 5 vit, and I don't have any problems with survivability yet, compared to what some of my peers are complaining about when choosing the same path. The reverse also happens with vit build archers; some complain about their damage output. But I do see where the extra vit and HP is going to help, so I wouldn't deny a vit build either...it's just not my preference. After all, if you can work with low HP, imagine what you can do when you have an abundance of it.

    Your English is fine. I still understand what you're writing.
    And crowd control would be difficult gainst adds surrounding bosses in fb39. Calcid in particular has a group of reavers at a distance that could prove risky for people trying AoE attacks.
    When I was leveling I was in a few squads that insisted on pulling every mob in an instance simply because it was available and it gets slow and frustrating. Mostly fb39 back when that was the hardest instance lol.

    Farren's mobs used to wipe my squad because we didn't know Zeal could pull and we had no full time venos, but ever since we discovered what AOE stun was and that harpies also use physical attacks, we never really needed to pull anymore. As long as people assist attack during Reverex AOEs, the explosions wouldn't happen all at once and it's actually rather safe and fast to do.

    So when I started joining random squads, it frustrated me when everyone in the party insisted in pulling. It took twice as long as to do the instances than it did with my usual squad. In fact, my squad prefers my BM over my cleric in an instance run just for faster runs.

    Everything said... I choose pulling over AOE if the party is made up of randoms who don't know what they're doing or clerics who think I'd die and refuse to heal me.b:surrender

    And I think pulling isn't a form of glitch exploitation. But I have no reason to back it up, except that the veno seems designed to do tanking, healing, and DD, all of which are supposed to belong to other classes, so adding luring to the array doesn't seem to be out of place.

    LOL I'm shocked this has gone on for so many posts (which I'm not helping throughing in my own two cents but...) as the original is an oxymoron;
    Stop telling others how to play
    I commend all of you who are able to think outside of the box and come up with new and more exciting ways to make this game better

    XD See what I mean? Don't know if anyone else caught but seriously. If you can own monsters with a team full of clerics; one tanking, one pulling, etc and so on and so forth than more power to you if you rather do what may come easier to some class types fine. How ever in the spirit of not being a **** about other people's game play please be considerate and keep comments like; "You cleric, you heal! You heal only!" to yourself. There is a fine line between giving gaming advice and trying to control how others play their game. if you are the type to gripe about such nonesense this post is for you. Leave us tanking healers, fire only wielding wizards, and close combat archers alone.b:victory

    Now when it comes to the organizing a party to take down difficult monsters and your teammates are just all over the place causing you to loose battles time and time again now that's something to complain about when it comes to game play, that is another story and another topic.b:laugh

    Keep it up guys, I know we'll all learn something from this.......evenuallyb:laughb:avoid

    Well, to not just Troll then roll xD, I agree with the bare fact that as long as it is a game, and it's free to play, and it's being played by ppl like the above posters, you can do whatever you want, as long as it works out for the best interest of all who play it......and if it fails, try, try again lols. Btw, what is the "declared" aim that every1 must achieve in this game, no matter how ignorant you are?

    Hmm, is the answer...err....idk really o.o, can you all tell me pleaseb:bye Much appreciated everyone ^^
