THANK YOU!! Thatas what I have been trying to say since
the game came out! Your righ6t on every point.. Only thing you didn't hit on
is this debate on better weapons for clerics>>Basically We are not ment to
deal out damage like Paladins there fore we will not have a weapon that is
ever as goosd as good as a paladin, warrior...etc Clerics are healers and
buffers thats it we are not warriors or tanks. I knew that when I started my
cleric. Don't get me wrong hell I love hitting soem little annoying gnoll
for 40 hp a round but My personally fits a cleric exactly sop thats what I
choose( Yall say there is no really awsome weapon for clerics well, put it
this way noone that anyone has found ! there could be a weaopn that is 17dmg
+7wis Yaulp 3 or something oh yeah 40 delay but noone has found it and they
still aren't done making the new zones which mean new weapons) So everyone
sit back and be patient. Oh about the lag all I can do is laugh try playing
EQ the first few weeks when it came out hahahah that was herll the lag in
BlackBurrow compared to tEQ's status the first week is like having a perfect
cable connection..
