support clerics should focus on spr:end with spr being the greater point amount, that way you have plenty of sp for buffs and healing, and can still take some damage if you have to.

My advice is this, and is only my personal opinion...DON'T make a support cleric build and here's the reasons why.

1: If you make scrolls, the mentality one will add more SP points then SPR will for quite awhile.
2: If a party member dies, YOU get the blame. People don't seem to understand clerics have a cooldown as well.
3: Not good for making any money because you're tone in back casting healing spells, while the fighters are the ones picking up loot. I've left parties because of this as tey wouldn't take it off free allocation.
4: You actually may lose money as you're the one who has to spend stones and SP pots to keep healing up to 4 other people, while they won't use a HP stone of their own.
5: It's hard to keep track of 4 other people's health even with the stats in the party info area.
6: You can't solo effectively due to lack of str and end, so you're basically stuck needing a party to level up.

A Cleric shouldn't really worry about SPR until after level 30 anyhow. in CB 2 I didn't add one single SPR point to my level 31 cleric, and he was able to solo AND party effectively. Adding 1 point into SPR only gives 5 SP points anyhow. if you want the SPR, I'd go with rings.

The CP parties I've been in they usually, for the most part, put on sequencial. Also, I warn them that if they are heavy grinders (non-stop) they had better have their own supply of HP stones on the side in case things get hectic.

And yes, you will get blamed on occasion for things. The other day I was in a party with a fellow cleric. The archer wandered off and trained some high level stuff into our midst, I died. The cleric ran off to help the archer then came back for me. Guess what? The fighter complained for a straight 10 minutes about it. In defense of the cleric, I told her she did the right thing reviving me because if the other cleric fell, then they'd be out of luck entirely.

In the end, they lived only because I was able to get back up on my feet and assist in the mob control (there was some 7-8 mobs in the middle of 1 fighter, 2 archers, the cleric and myself).

However, if you know your job, know how hard people get hit and know how to balance your spells over the whole party (especially in non-stop heavy grinding), you'll be praised like no other. I enjoy the praise.

Plus there's always the revive. People love that when in the middle of nowhere and you get them back up on their feet. Not everyone will thank you but the nice ones will.

The one I love is the shouts for a revive.... Ummm we're NOT psychic, coords on the map may help. I'm too old to be playing hide and seek :)

I am full end. And it rocks! I can take about 5 mobs at my level at a time without dying. Healing alot but still safe XD Aside from that protect helps and if you get the mobs attention away from the tank by healing there is a great chance you won't die cause of your defense :D

BTW If you're not a cleric and you need a revive. TELL ME YOUR FREAKING COORDINATES! ^^

Thanks qwter, I have been thinking about making a cleric character but I was unsure of what build to use.

Hi Wet_Won, glad that the guide is usefull to you. Check it on and off as I put more tips in there. The tips/info does not always mean for cleric, it could be for playing in fiesta like the Armor Scroll tips I added recently.

There is a few more tips I have in mind to share but I have to balance play time and forum time ^.^

I seldom have to rest/Home key with my cleric ... when I do, I can Alt-Tab to read / write on the forum (which is very seldom ^.^ )
