I'm a cleric & i love being a cleric so much that i make another cleric alt :eek: but what disappoint me the most as a cleric is that we dont have any skill for us to pull a mob .... i solo a lot & so many time i wish that i have a skill that can pull a mob, insted i have to go real close to the mob in order to pull it & ended up pulling the whole gang !
I hope that Outspark can make some sort of mob pulling skill for a cleric because we are the only class that can't pull....:( i think this is a fair request.

I actually wanted to start a thread like this but seems you have beat me to it >.< lol:D The problem with a thread like this is it raises alot of supporters as well as critics the main reason being that a luring skill for Clerics will only be useful to people who go solo mostly(like me:D) believe me, I would LOVE a luring skill lol, but this skill would be nearly useless to support Clerics who party all the time and theres always the issue of class balancing:rolleyes: thus leaving room for alot of disscussion on why we should get a luring skill...quite debatable I strongly hold firm your opinion... though the soloing capabilities at higher levels namely 60+ "AoE" skill would suffice too lol, this thread could use some higher leveld players insight as well IMO

A competent cleric learns enough about monster aggro that they can walk up to two enemies and aggro the one further away without gaining the attention of the closer one.
All in all, though, a lure skill won't let a cleric level faster, it won't equalise the difference between the classes, and it won't solve the fundamental problem of cleric soloing - the inability to handle more than one enemy at a time - it will just make it a less common event in a cleric's day.
Sure, it would be a luxury, but compared to the ability to AOE, the ability to lure at range is not even remotely close in importance.

DX Guess that means I'm not competent. I can't do that on purpose.

It's all in the monster's facing and particular aggro range. If the monster further away is facing you, and the other monster facing away, then the furthest monster will aggro you, the closest will simply stay where they are unless they're due to move.
Paying attention to which direction the monster is looking allows you to lure either only one monster where you would have got two, or pick and avoid aggroing ranged enemies for your AOE groups.

Clerics are healers.... but they stop getting new levels of Heal at level 57. Need more levels of Heal.
Solo clerics primary source of extra damage is Bash. Clerics stop getting new levels of Bash at level 53. Need more levels of Bash.
Trip/Bleed is so useless there is no point in wasting silver learning the skill. Something needs to be done about that. Improve it, replace it, whatever.

uhh clerics r suppose to HEAL and support they will not give clerics any more battle skills (maybe be some when/if they raise lvl cap, im still skeptical on that too lol), besides why whine about a mob pull, its stupid clerics always fight 1 vs 1 so whats the use of having 6 enemies damaging u when u r damaging only 1?

You two need to remake your mentality on what a Cleric is, true we are supposed to Heal and support other classes but do we NEED to do that ALWAYS? You may like sitting at the back of the party and spamming heal, rejuv, restore and bla bla... but some of us actually like to be at the hem of all the action, so if you guys think Clerics should always support and don't deserve more attack skills, try clicking the link at the bottom of my siggy concerning the AoE thingy and read everything, it's a long read but well worth it...no offence intended, but try to be more broad minded before posting anything
