Pure spellcasters get meditate sooner than Priest classes.
Just like pure spellcasters get their spells sooners than priest classes.
This is a tradeoff you make since you get more melee skills than spell casters
I see clerics that can actually afford to be hit a few times at higher
levels. Whereas, with pure spellcasters, even at 35+ in level, they
are being nearly killed (and killed) by MOBs MUCH lower in level
than them. if you get a MOB on THEM during a dungeon crawl, you
HAVE to get the MOB off right away.
Be patient. Level 8 will come. My druid is having some of the same impatience
problems being level 13 with level 14 dangling in front of her eyes :)
EVERY level of spells, by the time it becomes close to time to your
next level, starts to look weak against the monsters. Similarly with
meditate. I don't think anything needs to change. This just shows that
they chose a good place to put the skill in, whenyou absolutely
can not stand to wait any longer :)
