Is Halfling sneak/hide on a Cleric worth it?

[Salahdin]

Be brutally honest.

Its such a low capped skill is it more a gimmic? Aside from sneaking to use merchants.

[Kender]

can be very useful yes

hide on a pull and if it goes bad rez the dead. or use it for afk

sneak can be used for quest handins too

[Lhancelot]

It's not always reliable, but it can be useful. Gamebreaking? No. useful when it works? Yes.

[mr_jon3s]

If you just want hide do a dark elf. You can also do this quest http://wiki.project1999.com/Innoruuk_Symbol_Quests for a clicky snare.

[Lemonhead]

Sneak also lets you use any vendor, anywhere. (that isn't protected by a guard looking at u). The quest thing can be pretty useful too. Hide is great for afk, especially since you have to pay plat to invis (recharges or potions). Oh and they both work about 50% of the time at 50 skill, maybe a bit less.

[xKoopa]

Hide is very useful. Generally only undead and a few select raid mobs can see through it

[Ravager]

I've got a dark elf cleric with that clicky snare. The snare lasts for less than a minute, and the mob doesn't slow down as much as you'd like. From a utility stand point, sneak will find so much more use, though with stacking snare and root, the necklace is good for incredibly slow soloing.

From a fashionquest stand point, dark elf cleric is the only way to go.

[Nymphomancer]

Absolutely worth it if no other reason than peace of mind afk's.

[Lhancelot]

Humans beat dark elves in Fashionquest especially when you compare the velious helms.
Dragon helm, or coneshaped alien mask? Yeah, I will take the dragon helm any day.

[Swish]

I used the necklace in partnership with an enchanter to fear kite (keeping him and his charmed pet healed)...its as useful as you want to make it. Feel free to get in line at the well trodden XP zones if you want to stick to the meta.

I think the snare is only 6 ticks and does have a 6-8 second cast time, so positioning and awareness are important when fear kiting with it.

I'm a child of the 80's. Mullets never go out of style.

[big_ole_jpn]

Sneak allowed me to get ultranerd heallun cleric that was homosexually rebound from firepots to the door to vp out solo so I could give rezzes.

It's not an everyday thing but it can be very good, get you past see invis mobs when invising into dungeons or to corpse, etc. I remember doing all the corpses for a failed vox pickup raid on live on a ranger, was able to go right up behind her and snag.

I still play a human cleric tho cuz I go for style.

Touché!

[kotton05]

It's OP in all aspects. Can be invis while you med or in between ch's. Also real good during a cr etc. you can also sneak pull:)

[Jimjam]

Sneak pull not so easy on cleric, not a lot of ranged options.

Even though you can't use them while casting with the hotkeys bar, you can click hide/sneak in the abilities window while casting. Made for some tricky tricks in the past, especially exploiting lull resists for non-los pulls, dunno if it still works.

When hide worked against undead and you could prevent any adds by being invis while getting aggro this was ridiculously op. Sadly no longer!

[kotton05]

It's pretty easy actually. I've seen getsome do it all the time

[Freakish]

Halfling clerics forgetting how they get asked for sow all the time.

[Erati]

Tunare bracer on high elf > using sneak for some gimmicky situations on a cleric once every 2-3 weeks

[Lhancelot]

Gnomes get bubble-eye helm AND can wear robes, AND can see through walls! More I think about it, gnomes win the debate as to what race is best for clerics.

Humans come in second. Dragonhelm and can wear robes, AND can worship Innoruuk. Awesome.

16 or more years and I still can't figure out why people would want to play a gnome lol

To be honest, when I am on small races there is some charm to how you always feel like you are running fast, even without sow.

Also, all small races got good vision, and they fit in small creviced dungeons.

I wish halflings could wear robes, then they would be the superior cleric race no doubt.

As it stands, they are only in the top 7 of all pickable races.

Suddenly there is an influx use of the word "gay" as an insult as it was many years ago.

Just recently culture had evolved; freedoms were granted, people liberated! Now look at us, already regressing back into baseless troglodytes.

Thanks Trump.

Doesn't make it right. It's not too late to change.

Ok, consider this: Red server, Human cleric of Bertox. Get the disease cloud necklace (stay sick so you and your buddies cannot be Raptured), and faction up with Paineel and get the insta-click See Invis helm like my cleric Havona. And you can wear the Robe. You know the one. SEEYOCK

[Korrupt]

halfling obviously superior race cleric, although dark elfs look better, also female erudites do.

[Castigate]

Being a Halfling is always worth it.
Soon as you look at your character you'll be unable to regret the decision, same goes with Ogre.

Couldn't you also do a gnome bert cleric too, and still get the necklace, AND wear a robe? Obviously anything nome is 100 times better than anything else so...

Dark elves still ahead of both, you got hide, you got style, you got the best city in Norrath.

Dwarf has extra MR,. ;) Plus the STR and STA is no joke.

[Lhancelot]

Did a /who all cleric 60: 3 darkelves, 3 humans, and 1 halfling.

Obviously humans and dark elves are the best race for clerics with halflings at third going by the number of 60 clerics and their races.

Clearly the numbers have spoken. All other races are inferior and should not be played.

In fact going by the numbers here, no one even plays other races other than humans, dark elves, or halflings to 60.

To answer your question OP, sneak/hide for halfling clerics is hardly a reason to choose this race for the cleric class. Go human or dark elf.

[Pumpedup]

halflings are 100% gay

anyone who plays a halfling is 100% Gay

playing a halfling for hide or sneak means you are gay

PS Dark elfs get hide too

gnome clerics are #1

Common wording used by 15 year olds in 2005. Have you not evolved at all since then?

At least you do show some support for gnomes as clerics, I give you points for that.

Be nice if you could express exactly why you like gnome clerics so much.

Gnomes are the perverts' race of choice since they have big noses and their short stature puts them right at crotch sniffing level.

That could explain it. Be nice if he can confirm that's exactly his reasoning though.

[pasi]

Cleric comes down to sneak + exp bonus versus snare neck.
Can't go wrong with either.

[Trollhide]

There's only one race that gets dragon helms, ergo there's only one correct cleric race.
