The way of the cleric

ok.... with love:

BofP description bit biased, 11lvl - is just bad

The lv11 descriptions lack a bit because I REALLY don't see an advantage with their effect. Might be handy to elaborate on it, though.

---

IH description over-sweeted as usual. IH is great spell but it have disadvantages.
it takes 5 seconds before first IH tick will heal you with just 1/5 of total spell power.

this make IH slowest healing spell ever. Even CHB is faster (4.5s).

sage description kinda sucks too. how anyone can complain that some heal is too strong and u may not need it? i sugest doing something harder than bh

I actually haven't done BH in months now. Over-sweeted, maybe. But IH IS very important. And I wouldn't say it is the slowest heal (in theory, maybe) because a stacked IH ticks constantly. It isn't suited for fast heals like wellspring though, in that aspect it is indeed the slowest.
Kinda see that I stated the sage description wrong though. What I actually meant is that spamming IH will do the job just fine without the added 10%.

---

CHB 11 descriptions biased again. and btw i think that u you arent aware that all demon/sage heals are much stronger than 10lvls (attacks also) dont read just bonuses..

I know that very well, but since both demon and sage get the same increase I kind of ignored it. But you're right, should be mentioned.

---

SoR read whole 11 description

Spelling error I see, needs to be fixed b:laugh . Demon version needs a bit more of an explanation.

---

Plume shell - phy type damage* and read whole 11lvl descritpion
Can't believe I forgot about that...

---

p.def buff - sage description..
Yeah.. that's bad..

---

mp/hp buff - so this regen hp and mp by 'significat amount'?..
At lower levels I really noticed a big jump in my mp regen when I had lv10 of it on. Could use a better explanation though.

---

mag buff - mistake in demon description. it always bust up just urs mag even if u cast it on someone else. and that '150% weapon bonus' is 75% of 1st spark power in reality. still great skill
Didn't know about it being self-only but what exactly do you mean with 75% spark power?

---

revive - sage description is biased and fail and demon is quick enough to rez tank too if he die :P
Hmm yes, I guess so. Still can't think of a good use for those 17 extra meters of range though.

---

debuffs - no info about other class equivalent skills
Indeed

---

silent seal - it dont reduce ur dmg by 50%... and it s not freeze - silenced mob cant hurt u even if ranged or magic

Didn't know that either, mainly because I never used the skill myself.

---

red ball - at least write what it does actualy: 20% speed buff and 50% of 1st spark power
yeah not a big problem.

Some notes for you after reviewing the updated version:

Great Cyclone: you can use Wield Thunder once learned then Cyclone on ranged mobs and the effect will work the same. You do not always have to open with Cyclone.
Most ranged mobs still have to walk a bit to get into range (assuming you are attacking from max range) so a slow still helps a slight bit, but the result is probably the same whether you use cyclone first or not.

Razor Feather: This skill is hit and miss at higher levels due to the channel time of the skill. One might be better off debuffing and using WT or even sticking with Plume Shot since it will have greater damage overall due to spammability.
My guess is that it has just about the same results when fighting a robe user, after you've slept/debuffed I'd rather use razor feathers than plume shot though, since it gives you the chance to cast longer skills.


Siren's Kiss: Downfall to this skill is the short range, but is great in AOE grinding as a last hit if needed.
chi is really important in (solo) AoE grinding to purify with and I always find myself almost out of chi after a bunch of mobs. Should you be grinding on monsters that don't use poison, then it would indeed be a good finisher.

Tempest: Slower channel and easily interrupted, means that in PvP you must know your opponent and timing of the skill. Against melee, it is often good to seal, debuff, tempest and then freeze (if needed) to kite if not dead and you need a final blow. Often better used in PvP when charm of the opponent is on cool-down.
As you might've guessed from my server, I'm not a big PvPer. But that is certainly worth mentioning.

Blessing of Purehearted: Works great as a chi builder later on.
true.

IronHeart: Stacks 5 times, not infinitely and will not always keep your tank alive later on (which is when WellSpring and SoR come more into play).
All true, though wasn't too sure about the stacking since it's a bit hard to test that myself.

BB: Heals a set 300hp + 20% of your base magic.
read over the 200 hp part when checking my skilltree apparently, thanks for pointing that out.

Celestial Guardian Seal: This skill will override MP recovery pots if someone is using, so beware.
Totally forgot about that one, certainly good to mention.

Silent Seal: If an opponent is ranged, they can still attack, they just cannot move from where they are standing. Making this much better for use on melee classes in PvP. You can purify the magic attack reduction. Also, this is a skill that gets better with leveling. Level one might not seem like it is anything since it is UP to 6 seconds, but at level 10 UP to 16.8 seconds can and does make a difference.
Kept hearing different things about this, so I went to test it and what you said is indeed true.

RB: This INCREASES the channeling and attack speed of squad members not decreases. It is often used with another cleric or when a veno is tanking.
''decreases channeling TIME (=faster) and increases attack SPEED.(=faster)'' Might aswell change that to avoid confusion.

Guardian Light: Do not discount this skill. Works wonders in PvP, TW and in instances if caught off-guard.
I dismiss it mainly because I have to rely on the opinion of clerics I know that have it, since I don't (didn't sound very useful to me, still doesn't actually) and they all said it wasn't worth the money. It does indeed seem to have good uses in emergencies, though.

Looking better.

Only other thing is I would try to keep more consistency. Such as when listing Sage/Demon add-on's, keep Sage first then Demon (or vis-a-versa) for all skills.
That was my idea too, to keep sage first and then demon. But there's a few mistakes that got in there with copy-pasting from the former layout.
