Hi guys,
I've been thinking on that for a while and I think it's better to ask everyone. I see some people running with Archangel stuffs on their clerics, but some other peeps say, I should go rank 8. Now, my question is, which is the armor, that gives more extra stuff?
I know that Archangel armor set gives extra help, if I collect more items, the more extra I get.
Now, I'd like to ask, which gives better HP, MP and -chan? And of course, if I plan to stop lvling on 100, which set would be more helpful?
I'm basically a healer cleric, but (due to the noob beginner times) I have good HP to tank too. b:victory

So please help me to decide my end-game gear!!
Thankies <3

    rank 8/nirvy weapon
    rank 8 top
    nirvy pants
    arch boots and wrists


    Rank gear does not have "set" bonuses, rank 8 pants are useless due to their adds.
    Clerics need candies to get rank wrists and boots?

    You'll get 6% wrists, 3% set, 6% top, idr pants or weapon since im not a cleric b:laugh

    That is what I would go for endgame, if not full nirvy with the exception of top.

    Rank 9 is out of the question

    Thank you for your answer.
    I would like to ask if there is someone who has full Archangel set?
    I'm very... well... interested in the full set extras b:dirty

    I saw it as armor and it looks beautiful. Even more beautiful then the rank armor. I know on an armor it's not important how it looks, but still, I care about how my character looks without fashion <.< (TT90 arcane sucks)

    I dunno anything about the candy stuff, but I guess so. I haven't heard any different way.

    Thank you for your answer and I hope a full archangel cleric will help me too :)

    2 items give Channeling -3%
    4 items give Vitality +15
    6 items give Critical +3%

    Thatd be for TT99 gold arcane arch set.

    Which for the crit is useless, don't get magic ornas >.< warsong/anything is better lol...

    Shadow of Nirvana(TTnirvy)

    2 items give 5 attack level
    5 items give 10 def
    6 items give 3 def

    Pretty sure its same for light, which is lunar

    TT90 is godly compared to the garbage you get before, its like an arcane quantum leap >:O. Pity About the price of TT99 gold mats though, would defo be cheaper to get Rank8 (weapon more useful then armor) and then work on your TT99 stuff from there if you going Nirvana.

    Getting in 3-x squads is not easy though if you are not well known or don't have an awesome faction. If you do farm TT might wanna check out a guide first coz it can get pretty nasty in there.
    PWI b:bye

    None of the original classes have rank wrists or boots. That is unless they were recently added and I am not aware.

    The rank 8 top is very good to have (+hp and -chan) and far better than the adds on the Archangel top. Also, tt99 top requires illusion stones which have jumped in price quite a bit since the TT "fix."

    The extra bonuses from either the nirvy or tt99 sets is just not worth the full complect (the auras look fairly neat though, so if you care about looks then go for it).

    If you care about HP, toss the sets up in pwcalc and find out which gives the most (though refining tt99/rank 8 garners far less per refine than nirvana). As for maxed -chan: it's r8 top, nirvy pants, tt99 boots, t99 wrists, oht orns with as much -chan as you can get, r8 ring, and lunar ring. (Keep pdef orns to swap with mag ones. Don't use mag orns exclusively. That's a big mark-o-fail.) With that you get 30+ (depending on OHT orns) already. If you use the r8 weap (you should even though you'll look like everyone else) you'll have 36+

    R8 is better than TT99. And a lot cheaper. Considering the awesome weapon you get with it ;o

    This is outside the OP's point, but...

    Personally, I wouldn't even bother with the TT99 boots or wrists either (unless the -3 chan is a huge deal-breaker for you), but I like mix and match ****. OHT boots (and wrists) are easy enough to make and you can get better adds with time/luck/patience or you can farm yourself the lower grade OVS boots (g10-13 all refine the same as the g14 ones). I knew an archer who farmed the g13 versions of the hat and the boots, so it is possible with patience (never seen anyone farm the g14 ones...)

    I would go with R8 for wep/ring/chest and the rest Nirvana (wrist, legs, feet, helm, possibly cape if you so desire, or Cloudcharger) with ws/cube orns and lunar ring. Tome = magic tome (+15 or higher) or some combo tome like Voidlands, Pan Gu, LU&D, etc. Gearing up clerics is rather simple.
