Also keep in mind that the 1:3 ratio for mana:hp means that for a Cleric HP items add 1/3rd their value to your mana pool each CH cycle. So if you sacrifice, say 40 wis for 300 HP you've given up 400 mana in your pool but you've added 100 mana to each Manastone cycle.
You'd have a smaller mana pool but you'd be regenerating it faster, so swapping wis for HP is only a good call if you regularly can stop for about 30 seconds between fights to stone up for a full cycle. It's not for everyone but it certainly could help in some situations. Cleric's soloability isn't exactly legendary, which is a shame because solo situations would be ideal for hp-oriented gearing. Also, some HP items give a significant boost in the slot compared to equivalent wis items (earring and rings being the most notable) while some slots (primary/offhand/boots/shoulders) should probably stay wis no matter what.
