I have had Clerics and casters bail on me. It happens. People don't
realize that if they unload that big damage DD or DoT or heal for too
much too soon the mob is going to head straight for them. It can be
hard to hold aggro on a mob when that happens. My Ranger has had to
become good at peeling the mobs off the casters just to keep them
alive. They'll never make it if they run!

I have seen and been involved in total party wipeouts, and they are
no fun! I'd rather the Cleric survive it, maybe we'll get a Rez?

I play a Cleric from time to time as well. He fights to the death
and beyond! So he has a melee mentality!
