In short, the statement that clerics are "immensely powerful" undead soloers is hyperbole. They can manage, but they're slower than every other caster class, i.e. not very good.

Stop and think for a second. The best healing class in the game can potentially solo from 1-60 (and definitely 1-53). Doesn't that say something about the strength/flexibility of a cleric? I'd say that's overpowered, and I love it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Spectre camp....

My necro fear kites a spec, takes him maybe 90 seconds with dot stacking and moving around.

My cleric roots the spec, nukes 3 times, and sits back down after about 20 seconds and meds for the next one.

Don't forum lawyer me on clerics being bad or slow soloers, they're not...and there's enough undead at all levels that they don't get "stuck" having to group (until 53 at least).

EDIT: I'd be interested to see a shaman's XP root rotting spectres/festering hags/other undead versus a cleric's DD and how that compares over an hour. I think its safe to say we aren't the "worst caster class" for soloing.
