Is this a good stat build?

My cleric build and right now STR:SPR 1:1 build, is it good? Since it got more damage, more cri.%, more SP, and just have to heal if got to low HP and will still have plenty of SP left to heal yourself with and heal others.

Most clerics (i think) put pts in END... coz both STR and SPR gives u atk power...

so i would think a more even build would be to swap one of those to END.. so u get the endurance and atk power...

but that's purely my opinion... keke

Would High Dmg & Critical Hits w/ High Dmg make up for loss of END? Since you'll kill faster.

only problem is crits arent always conssistant. my self I have a 2: 1: split on end spr

not really.. not for clerics anyway, coz we dont have big base dmg, and we dont hv many atk skills... (only bash.. trip/bleed hardly does anymore than ur normal hit)

clerics wont kill fast enough especially when we're melee based.

If soloing is 100% all you care about, then I don't see any problem with that - just realize you'll be healing more than other people, but yeah, you'll probably make up for it with faster kills.

However, the importance of END is surviving those sticky situations - vs bosses, in KQ, getting trained, in a group with a bad pull, etc etc.

All up to you though =)

Go for 10 STR and then full on END. That's my build and it's good for soloing, and have a balance between hp/sp.

Not that great of a build since most clerics, even if they built themselves to be battle clerics, end up just supporting and healing at higher lvls. Fighters tank and fight, clerics heal and buff. They do fight, but your not gonna be main tank. Just boost End and Spr so you have plenty of SP and plenty of HP

Should I do
Str to 10, stop there, like Zucchini said, then go 1:1 END:SPR?

It's actually not too bad.

If you ever solo, you might kill extremely quickly. On the other hand, your defense, HP, and block rate will suffer. It may only be 50 or so HP points at level 20, but once you hit 50...it's approximately (for me) 150 HP, 1.5% block rate, and about 15 defense bonus.

With a STR:SPR build, you better hope you don't get hit.

If you were to support, END:SPR would be better, or better still, full END. You would be able to take loads of hits and still survive with full END.

For any combat, any build other than some variation of STR:END is useless. Which is why people say clerics are better off being heal slaves. Which is ironic, as I do 200 on Orcs at level 51, and there are some mages and fighters that can't outdamage me. And I'm weak?
