I've read on various websites that the GUARD spell is an additional spell line
to the Armor series (Holy, Spirit, etc) and the Courage series (Center, Daring,
etc). On other websites, GUARD is listed as the next upgrade to Spirit Armor.

What is the HP bonus for the 2nd line of Symbols spells? I'm at level 23 and
fairly excited (I bought all the 24th level spells and the reagents for the
next Symbol line and keep them in a backpack with me) about my new buffs.

Could one of you higher-level Clerics tell us the truth on these two spells?

Also - Besides a Heal or GHeal, what's the best taunt for a cleric? I've found
that Flash of Light (or whatever that level 1 spell is called) is fairly decent.
Sometimes, if my Ranger buddy is taking too much of a beating, I'd like to step
in and take some pressure off of him temporarily so that he can cast a few DD
and Entangle spells.

One last point - I've come to the conclusion that my 1HB weapon isn't going to
cut the mustard in days to come - is it too late for me to start working on my
2HB skill? Can I take it from 3 (I'm guessing) up to my current skill level of
1HB? Or will I advance in 5 point increments with each level from this point
forward? I'm only asking because I saw a level 29-ish cleric with a big staff
beat the tar out of a Greater Zombie in Lake Rath the other day. He was giving
almost as good as he got without using spells. Needless to say, I was in awe.

Forgive me if I'm rehashing old material, but I'm fairly new to this site and
I'm sure there are others like me who would love to hear suggestions and helpful
hints from the WISER clerics out there. <Grin> If no one has time for this
answer (no pressure mind you) then please let us know where we can get this
info.

Sending my best wishes from Cazic Thule!!
