Rude Peoples?!?!!

**Leesa** · 10-14-2008, 10:38 AM

Clerics, how do you deal with all the rude peoples? When I'm on my cleric and everythings killing everyone and I do my best for a whlie to keep everyone alive but just doesn't work out, I get yelled at! It isn't easy to keep everyone alive, some people might think its just clicking a button every few seconds but things could happen, you could get hit and you need to know who to heal first and which heal should you do? When should you invinc.? Should you fight and get it off you or try to manage both your heal and your party's health? No no easy =/ So watcha think? I want especially clerics to comment and say they're experience

*ugh* Same problem here..

Well i try to remain calm in those situations ^^
It depends what kind of party it is ( AoE or KQ ) and for lvl 79+ there wont
be a problem with ''who to heal first''

oh and btw use stones/pots for urself and heal the others..
''Cleric'' is in my opinion ment for support and not fighting in a party.

I use HP regen on the high defs and spam heal the squishies. When both are getting hit fairly bad, I throw Rejuvenate into the jumble. I invincible the squishies, because that gives time for the tanks to take back aggro, and save the day :P. I can't wait till I become a paladin and get the AOE heal. If they're rude, I just don't bother responding, because if you respond, it shows that you aren't healing and instead concentrating on the rebuttal (this is of course assuming it's a high-adrenalin situation, when someone actually dies, otherwise, chat away).

My experience as a cleric has been that I may have been doing a great job. Everyone is happy and healty pulling mobs. Confidence grows and the pull gets larger even to the point of double pulls. Then, of couse, its my fault when someone dies or at least some plp think so. In a huge pull I generally will not use my invince because I can only use it on one person and who am I to choose who may live and who should die? If every one dies I will be faced with a huge mob. If I must choose who may live and who should die the choice is clear.

Ok fine, clerics support a party. The key word there is support. The ultimate responsablity lies with the one that must face the concequences.

Ok first you really have to realize how much damage you can handle as a cleric. For me I can handle a fairly good amount of damage so usually I don't worry so much about healing myself and just heal my teammates. I can use some stones on myself if necessary and clerics receive a fair amount of them so you have a pretty good supply. Although it should be the fighter's job to use mock or something to take the enemies from you. Those are the fighters' who actually know how to play. I'd recommend if someone is a squishy teammate as said before heal them and use an invincible on them so you can heal the fighter once or twice before having to go back to the squishy one. From how it sounds the fighter should at least have a pretty good amount of hp/def if they are tanking so should be able to handle a lot of damage and not have to be healed every second. And the hp Regen skill clerics have is good to use on anyone and even in those parties if your fast enough I'd say use it on everyone who is getting hit because it will help out a lot.

before you say people are rude there are 2 possibilities:

1) They are having a bad day
this is also their fault for taking it out on others but after a bad day people sometimes have a short fuse
2) They are ****holes ^^

It's not easy at all to make sure you don't die (because if you do, other party members will likely do too), and keep the party members alive. From my experience, those that appreciate clerics' heals are ONLY those that have had a cleric character before and knows the pain and the difficulties to healing.

Others? They just don't care. They only care about whether they're alive or not. If they die, they always blame it on the clerics. Why do they not think about using stones and potions? I don't know, perhaps because they're selfish? Or perhaps because they're ill-mannered? :/

Having a fighter as my second main, I always thank clerics for any heals, buffs and blame myself (because it was partly my fault) if any party member dies. Since I know how hard it is from the clerics' point of views, I know I shouldn't blame everything on clerics, and order them to heal me, rudely.
