Right now i've a recently level 20 dark elf cleric. Clerics are, and i must
stress this, NOT soloers! Even against undead, lets say you fight an even
level dry bone, needless to say he has a 3/4 chance of kicking your ass :)
My role in a group consists of healing and expulsing/smiting, my melee is
just in there for fun. Also, my two hand blunt skill is at 3 i believe, but
since in a group youre a healer and not a tank, it is fully easy for you to
raise your skill while not taking damage.
Theres my 10 coppers.
