As a newbie cleric, which skills should I really focus on? Which should I ignore? and what levels should I get them too? So that I can be a great help to those who need a cleric.

    Short Version: Read what I've posted below
    Long Version: Find a guide online

    (in order of importance)
    Heal Spells:
    Ironheart Blessing
    Wellspring Surge
    Stream of Rejuvination
    Blue Bubble/Regeneration Aura (BB)
    Chromatic Healing Beam
    Blessing of the Purehearted<---DON'T LEVEL THIS UP

    Buffs:
    Vanguard Spirit
    Spirit's Gift
    Magic Shell
    Celestial Guardian Seal
    1 Hour buffs

    Damage Spells:
    Plume Shot
    Great Cyclone
    Wield Thunder
    Metal Mastery
    Razor Feathers
    Tempest <---Optional
    Siren's Kiss <--- Optional
    Thunderball <---DON'T LEVEL THIS UP PAST 1

    Debuffs:
    Elemental Seal
    Chromatic Seal
    Silent Seal
    Dimensional Seal

    Other Spells:
    Purify <---AT LEAST LEVEL 1
    Plume Shell <---AT LEAST LEVEL 1
    Revive <---AT LEAST LEVEL 1
    Heaven's Wrath
    Wings of Protection
    Guardian Light

    All skills should be maxed at endgame, but until then, just focus on the first 3-4 skills for each section.
    Healing spells go first, then damage, then buffs, then the other stuffs.
    Can't comment on level 100 skills 'cause I'm not level 100 yet...

    I generally agree with the above list, but Purify and Chromatic should definitely be maxed by about 80 if you plan on doing FC/BH/TT. Also, Stream can be left at like 3 or so for awhile, but BB should be learned as soon as you do you your 59 culti. Many situations will soon require BB.

    Razor Feathers and Siren's Kiss are also nice for AOE grinding poison mobs at 60/70+.

    max p.shell...

    Celestial Guardian Seal
    this **** can wait a bit

    Stream of Rejuvination
    learn to use it before 80s, then focus to lvl it

    Wield Thunder
    expensive, so optional too

    Chromatic Seal
    Silent Seal
    expensive so u will prolly lvl it bit slower

    ironheart = fast channel, heal over time

    purehearted = slow channel instant heal (high amount of hp)

    wellspring = fast channel, instant heal (low amount of hp)

    IH, is a heal over time and is stackable up to 3 times.

    Pureheart is only really good with Demon/Sage vers, but then again takes to long to cast (i use it for LOLz.... mine is about a 8k non sparked heal)

    wellspring is good for Arcane/LA for the most part, they normaly have lowest hp and its a fast cast.

    without any channeling gear up to 5 times before first cast runs out, but in reality you just spam it on the tank most of the time... solo questing: you may cast one at yourself before you attack. it stacks not only with otself but also with stream of rejuvenation.
    Pureheart is only really good with Demon/Sage vers, but then again takes to long to cast (i use it for LOLz.... mine is about a 8k non sparked heal)
    at 70-80s lvl 1 bop becomes your main chi building skill, its cheap and gives 30 chi each cast. sage version heals A LOT for cheap, i use it after the fight to fill up bms and barbs hp.
    wellspring is good for Arcane/LA for the most part, they normaly have lowest hp and its a fast cast.
    also as lifesaver for most classess when you arent sure you will have time to cast anything bigger, or when you have someone very concerned with their charm and want to prevent a tick

    I mostly agree with Nuallan's list, but I would like to add that while revive must be at least at lvl 1, you would want to lvl it... people tend to get angry at clerics with a low lvl res. Wings of Protection and Guardian Light are lvl 79 skills that each need 20 apocalypse pages (~40k-50k) and 10 medium inks (105k coins each I believe) to get. If you can't afford both, get Wings of Protection. It's very convenient in FCC, cooldown time aside.
    Syredrae ~ lvl 100 Cleric (main character)

    Auryl ~ lvl 100 Venomancer

    Mainas ~ lvl 80 Barbarian

    Suirune ~ lvl 2X Psychic

    Not really, I did fine with level 5 of both in all of those things. If you have the coin, sure, max it, but they aren't really priorities to max compared to other skills.
