it would be safer with 2 clerics + 2 mages and 1 tanker (:

The only people who play safe are little kids and cowards! You gotta take a chance because when you do the rewards will be well worth it.

The other day I had 2 archers and 2 mages in the party with myself as the healer. That was the fastest XP gain I've ever had. We had one archer who was the tanker and we were at King Colls... the monsters dropped so fast that I only had to do like 2-3 heals and he was dead (of course if you have less than 600HP heal it wouldn't work). It was just a stream of mob after mob. I got 60%+ within an hour... crazy~

As much as it'd be nice to have a tank in the party as long as the wannabe-tank has enough HP and def to take at least a hit... you can have a great party... :P

If you can find a party like that sure. Though you just need to find it once and add everyone to yuo FL for the future. xD

The key make up is a good healer that can keep his/her head cool with 5 mobs surrounding the party. And some pty members willing to use some hp stones/pots here and there.

If you need 2 clerics, then one of the following is happening:

- the tank isn't that great of a tank D:
- the clerics aren't that great of clerics D:
- the stuff you're killing is too strong for you D:

IMO

You're forgetting one huge advantage with having two clerics though - longer camp outs when grinding. If you're in a place that takes forever to get to, having two clerics isn't so bad. Once the cleric runs out of stones, the party will usually have to head back or wait for them to return. Having two clerics means longer grind sessions. It's less pressure for the one person too.

Does a cleric ever get a heal all party member spell?

Yeah, at level 65/68 as a paladin though. Unfortunately class 3 hasn't been implemented yet.

I'm sort of excited about those higher levels but at the same time i'm kinda disappointed. Its a pain in the rear end to level up at my current level. The only reason I even got up to level 30 was because of a x4 EXP, x3 drop event that [GM]Steam had going that night. It lasted for 7 hours and I spent every single moment grinding the hell out of it. I went from level 26 to level 28 in Burning Hill then I moved on to Moonlight Tomb and kept fighting until I was almost level 29.

I kept dying so I said eff it and I just went and did some quests. Thankfully enough those quests gave me enough EXP to hit level 30. But now the only way I can even get any decent EXP is by fighting with a group of four other people in Collapsed Prison. And even getting 100+ EXP per kill isn't much. It takes about twenty minutes just to get one bubble. So I can't even begin to imagine how its going to be once I hit the higher levels.
