OTOH, Chardok AE is so incredibly attractive to dummies that it's best to avoid clerics who follow Daldaen's golden rez-bot path or anything similar to it. Learn your class, meet people, build a rep.

I can tell you a LOT of groups totally suck being the "Healer". Bad pulls, AFK people, etc. make for a "just blame the Cleric" why we died thing. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I have always found soloing on a Cleric much more exciting, challenging, rewarding than almost any group. Not counting if you want to quit playing, just quit. No, well crap, I can't find any replacement stuff. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] YMMV.

We are not talking Rocket Science to play a Cleric here. Figuring out what HP the Tank, Assist has, and using the right couple of heal spells, and timing them is pretty much it. Hell a Shaman is a LOT harder to play than a Cleric.

We aren't talking being a Enchanter skill wise with a pet or hell even being a puller for that matter. With a good Tank with the right gear, you can almost pretend you are a Wizard and be AFK half the time.
