But dun forget cleric is a lousy tank at high lvl abt 20. He can't fight
his way as a semi tank + healer. On the other hand, if we r talking abt
undead terriority, I think he can fight on par with warrior due to his holy
skills ;)
Troll dun have cleric btw, only shaman. Talk abt shaman, I think they can
fight better than cleric, but their healing abilities is somewhat one step
behind cleric's. Comparing cleric and shaman, cleric is better in defend
(healing) while the latter is better in offence, both healer/fighters.
Troll shaman gain additional edge by regenerating HP, so still can 'tong'
a while.
One thing abt high lvl cleric (lvl 40 and above), they will be healing 95%
of the time. Kinda boring if u ask me. But they will be forever welcome by
all groups. Esp high lvl cleric can help to train low lvl char by bringing
them to fight high lvl monsters and healing them. Oh, they are so damn
holy - basically serving others more than themselves! If u know a lvl 40+
cleric who is willing to spend a day with u in high lvl dungeon, I think u
can easily gain 10-20 lvl (someone in Innoruuk ever told me a high lvl
cleric help a newbie to gain up to lvl 22 in just 1 day!).
Hey, u got any high lvl cleric friend to introduce? ;)

a Gnome/Human Cleric that stands back and heal. I've had many bad
experiences like you guys where your Dear Cleric is trying to tank those
Dervs/Crocos. That is complete crap. But of course, you have got to let him
take a few go at the monsters if not SI BEI SIAN!
