Academia di Curatio

[rendet]

Heyas, sam, I love playing with you on my characters other than cleric.

I hate playing my cleric. Can your Academia di Curatio change that?

Basically, I hate healing and watching red bars and not enjoying the game.

Who says being a cleric means you can't enjoy the game? Give yourself a little strength, grab a weapon and help out with some dps
Cheaper than casting offensive spells and believe it or not clerics can do respectible numbers with some gear. I dual wield longswords and self buffed have a 42/42 +to hit. Base number is 25 and I crit for 65 base with my min2's. And that's all with 14 strength base.

I know what you meant.
This works if you are soloing. It is in some groups people prefer you not to aggro any monster.

Usually in those groups, you're not enjoying the game. I prefer playing my arcane casters than my divine casters any ways. My capped bard just sells stuff for me and my cleric is sitting at the bank gathering dust. I'll probably solo the cleric to 20 and then TR to FvS and forget about it.

Yeah, its a shame how some people think of clerics. Those people are really going to hate my new version of my cleric (although I'll probably boot them out of the group anyways). I TRed him recently (he is level 7 atm). He has intimidate, so the whole thing about not getting agro, just goes out the window. How am I supposed to get mana back if nobody is swinging on me? If I'm mass healing, I might as well be taking damage and getting mana.

I'm looking forward to the radiant servant. Should be set up well for that.

Anyways, if you are in a group where they don't want the cleric to get agro, I think you are playing with some unskilled players anyways. Most of the people I group with actually think less of a cleric who doesn't do anything worthy of agro.

The Academia di Curatio will be meeting this Sunday 5/16 at 11 AM EST. I'll put up an LFM as last time. We shall be discussing mass healing. I'll post more later on in the week.

I guess the idea of this has fallen by the wayside huh, based on the date of the last post?

Ironic post of the day: You resurrected a dead thread about clerics.

Yes, I am no longer organizing the Academia di Curatio. There wasn't alot of attendance (3-6 per session). I was looking for a venue for passing on playstyle techniques to people still learning in a way that would sponsor discussion among knowledgeable players.

I felt it would be better to offer up ideas in my original thread to a larger audience in an indellible form so that my wisdom would be passed on through the ages...


Now - Some people call me Tim. What is your favorite color? Blue, I mean red aaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh, thunk.

Problem: Sunday morning EST is not a good time for me.

It is probably not a good time for a lot of other people too.

That is probably why there were not much interest.
