Well, let me put it like this. A cleric might as well have a white +0. That's how great their attack is.

But if u don't have teva and will lose exp go with cleric, they hardly ever die. XD
But if there was a dd cleric and a tanker fighter, cleric will be more fun.

ive played both to 7x, and ive found fighters to be much more fun in terms of soloing (assuming both go full str/25 spr, rest str). fighters solo much faster than clerics by far, but it much more expensive than clerics in terms of stones. likewise, fighters have such a variety of skills and an aoe stun, while clerics are stuck with bash and trip/bleed all the way to 89.

In terms of 'fun' I find a cleric much more entertaining to play compared a fighter, as well as the rest of the classes. I just enjoy being a support class. And plus, listening to all the hapless nublets beg for buffs while I walk around is so silly to listen to. And plus, the fact that I only die when I've got ten or fifteen red mobs on me, or when fighting someone level 80+ makes it rather enjoyable.

Fighters....eh....

In terms of fun, they bore me. Maybe because they don't have sparkles with their skills, so they seem bland. Even devastate with it's explosion thingy, still seems bland to me. I am just bored by fighters it seems.

And in solo terms, yes a fighter will win. Why must you ask a question like that? It is just silly.

Trickster, duh.

I like both. Long term, money wise, and just out of sheer love for the character, cleric. Ive always loved soloing on a cleric more than any character. For a few reasons. One, above all theyre far superior in terms of self sustainment. You require nothing but sp stones. With full +9 gear on my former lvl58 cleric I dealt reasonable dmg (113x~1188), with 1k defense without scrolls. I easily grind 4~5 straight hrs in lvl6x abyss before having to return. All at the cost of some sp stones. Hence the reason I had full +9 before lvl60 without ever using sc. If you wish to be financially saavy from a low lvl I think clerics are best. If, you can sustain a reasonable amount of dmg. thats just my opinion :)

A comprehensive look at the two classes......

First a detailed view of Clerics....

Clerics are and should be played primarily as support.

They are not for tanking (some whining moron of a cleric will no doubt argue with this point but srsly, they are not for tanking, they should be healing in a party situation and should never eveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer be attacking a boss in a KQ), no aggro grab skills and a feather duster as a weapon means they should not be used for attacking at all... ever... ever. Unless soloing ofc, but no cleric in their right mind wants to solo grind after around Lv75 cos it takes longer to kill a single target than it takes a mage to destroy an entire map.

Clerics are cheap. Very cheap. You'll never need any pots (though they are handy to carry for when things get cagey in KQ or grinds). They never ever ever die, unless being controlled by a drunk blindfolded squirrel (excluding the number one killer of all, lag).

They can get by with minimal gears, even a full NPC cleric is gonna be able to kill anything around their level albeit very slowly. Instead of +'d weapons the money is better spent on +'d shields and armours. I can't tell you how much it annoys me in a KQ when I see a cleric with a +9/10 hammer and +0 shield :mad:

Now an indepth look at fighters

Fighters get killed by mages... a lot. ;)

Also, despite your plea for us to not point this out, this is the PvP section... Class discussion is Thataway --> (http://www.outspark.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=23)
