Is it me or are Clerics boring to solo with?

I feel bored soloing with my cleric. I don't really like partying since they might be bad, so I solo.

Anyone else feel this way too?

Soloing is boring. For one, you only have two attacks you can use.

But, on the other hand, clerics can probably solo grind longer than any other class.

Nahh, my fighter can solo longer than any 47 cleric i've met

I seriously doubt that...that must be some terrible clerics then.... Because clerics can use all their stones and I mean ALL of them before they have to go back because of their healing ability. If they can time it right they run out of each one about the same time. So unless you have like 300+ pots at your disposal at all times its not very likely...even if you have all +9s or something.

Really...that is just your opinion...but clerics bash actually damages about twice the damage as their actually attack when its empowered if not more. And if you decrease cool time thats 2x your actually attack every 4.5 seconds and even if you use your one skill to get rid of cool time for your next attack then thats even better. Which on top of that if you use SC you can even have a lot of critical so its incredible how much a cleric can actually hit. You would be suprised. And I have heard from a couple people that some clerics that are full STR are actually pretty close to being just as strong as some full STR fighters in the 8xs...because of the equipment and use of SC. So it is really easy for a cleric to solo if he really wanted to. On pretty much any level even though it is probably more useful on the higher levels.

Sorry if these seem kind of negative comments but thats just kind of how I feel about this kind of stuff haha

Yeah, cleric are slow at killing, and we only have 1 (well 2 but i personally think the other one is useless) attacking skill...

that's why I like building up my crit rate and a +9 so i can see flashy dmg just to make things a little bit more interesting....

Yesssss omggg clerics are SOOO boring to solo with. Well, for one, I'm not a STR build and I haven't used +9 weapons until my 50s, so it was hell to solo. I went through my first 40+ levels before all the new fancy quests came out, so we had to level up the old way. I never solo'd. It was so boring. No +9 to make high damage, I just click and hit, and occasionally press a 3 to heal myself, while I wait for about 5 minutes to kill a mob /exaggeration

I guess it's a different story if you're full STR or something and can deal lots of damage. Otherwise, boring.

It is a boring class to solo hands down. I couldn't stand soloing with my Cleric the first time around. But now I have one that is full STR and it is much better. That with crit items makes it better for sure.

**Hessah** · 10-14-2008, 03:44 AM

btw.. when i solo on my cleric (fighting yellow mobs for my license)

i can do multiple things such as play another flash game, read threads on fiesta fan... update wiki... (no kidding)

i just hit a mob, cast restore... then i dont have to come back to my character for a good 10-20 sec... just gotta make sure you dont have multiple mobs hitting you, otherwise you'll find yourself dead when u come back to the game LOL

**Blaaaaaaaah** · 10-14-2008, 04:06 AM

I used to be able to do something similar on the odd times that I solo. I'll have my firefox in a smaller box so I can keep an eye on my HP at the same time.

But my comp is too slow for that now.

soloing with a cleric will just waste your time mostly :/ you might as well br partying. clerics just dont deal enough dmg, even with +9's. even full str, they still kill slower than other classes at times.
