Best SP Distributation for Solo Clerics?

[tsukiro]

I'm new at being a cleric and I'm going solo.
I read Yuki's guide and
Iv'e decided to put full STR besides the 25 to SPR.

I'm lvl 17 right now, and dont want to grind anymore until I have this planned out.

So does anyone have any suggestions as solo clerics on where to put my SP?

Bash cool down max and power would be your best bet though you should think about empowering heal and rejuvenate power and cool down fully also since they will work weather you solo or even if you wanna party sometimes.

For skills ... max everything for Bash and Heal. That is 15 points each for a total of 30.

Then you might want to start saving ... or use 10 points on Invin ... or Trip/Bleed depending on your weapon of choice. I currently have saved 7 points for my level 100 skills. Not quite sure which one to enhance yet.

For stats ... I have equal Str, End, Dex and Spr. This is really good for about any PvE situation ... PvP ... not very good.

Hmmm this is very interesting. I currently have 10 str(mistake), 50 end and 25 spr. I understand that after 50 end, the increase in block rate is not as high as before so I was wondering if I should put any into dex at all. any ideas?

Well ... I looked at it this way ... what don't hit you can't kill you. Stun/Devastate and similar moves are a cleric's worst enemy. So if a little dex makes them miss ... then you just became more survivible.

As a mostly solo player until 8x, which the exception of CC I'll give some input. Currently I play my HK, and I have a noobie pvp kq cleric too :D

Level..............Distribution
1-23...........Bash Full CD/Power (Do not empower SP consumption, you have stones and potions)
25-33........Heal Full Power (Do not empower SP consumption)
35-43.......Bleed Full CD (You don't want points into Power unless they fix the bonus)
45-53.......Heal Full Cooldown

After this you have options. Since at some point it will be more valuable to party, or you will be taking a lot of damage anyway you can do 10 points into Rejuvenate CD and Power.

Things to not waste points on...
Bleed Power, any Invincible empowerments, anything on Recover, anything on Awaken.

If you play to Prestige you'll want to go Holy Knight. You are going to want 20 points by that time.

5 into Cooldown for Quicken
5 into Cooldown for Deadly Blessing
5 into Cooldown for Benediction
5 into Cooldown for Mighty Chop.

Those are the empowerments if you plan to really solo a lot and/or farm. If you are planning to save the 20 points for prestige cooldowns I suggest either not empowering Rejuvenate, or only doing the Power. With the addition of Silence and Extinguish you honestly might just want to not empower Rejuvenate at all so you have points for those as well. Another option too would be to not cooldown Benediction so you can use those 5 points on Silence/Extinguish. Use a Cross set at 95 so you get the max benefit of soloing with Deadly Blessing.
