It depends on what you mean by "trouble". Being a Cleric is easier than other classes due to the fact that they can heal themselves so easily. But the only problem is, is the amount of SP the spells use. I was using up so many SP potions it wasn't even funny. I had over 500 Tier 1 SP potions in my storage about less than a week ago. Now I don't even have 200 of them. I just went back to being my Mage. Besides, Mages are more wanted for parties than Clerics are because there's always too many Clerics. Lol.

Anyways, if you got more defense it'll be easier to solo. You can take hits better and you've got more HP. Also if you use a sword and shield you've got speed and extra END along with the ability to block. And thats increased with END as well. A pure SPR Fighter only has the chance of getting more criticals than a Fighter who isn't pure SPR. But that means he'll never be able to tank as well as someone who's pure END or some other hybrid involving END.

Of course a SPR fighter wouldn't tank as well as and END fighter, but I'm just saying that a SPR fighter can still manage like an END fighter if they want to with more hard work put into (i.e. the both the fighter and the cleric needs to be alert about their health). I'm not saying SPR fighter will be able to tank as many things as an END fighter, but I had no problems going zombie king hunting with a full SPR fighter - and back then there was only him, me (the cleric) and another archer most of the time. I can't say that we didn't die at all (believe me, we did die heaps when we didn't the map very well), but we still managed in the very end.

Mind you, that fighter did do some amazing tanking once in a while at KQs as well - so it's not that hard if you're bothered to put the work into it.

By "trouble", I guess I mean the difficulty of handling mobs/the time taken to kill them/and maybe cost effective wise. Well, from what Dyna told me, it seems pretty tedious to solo as a full END fighter at high 30s and onwards. It seems like it'll take a long time to kill mobs (that gives decent exp at the same time), and because it takes long - they still get hits from the mob and they still have to end up using quite a bit of hp. Then again, I don't know what conditions he was soloing in (whether it was red/orange/yellow mobs o.o) so I'm not sure. However, I'm sure that applies to every class (that is, each class will have its own trouble. For example, a mage/archer will have to constantly eat a stone because one hit may take quite a bit out of them).

I also have something to say about cleric SP usage but that's a whole different topic so I'll leave it out for now.

On a side note, I don't believe a full STR mage = full SPR fighter, I think it's more like full STR mage = full INT fighter. D: SPR can be beneficial to all classes - so yeah. I don't see what's wrong with a full SPR fighter.
