I read the guides, but they only touch upon Warlock skills, never actually mentioning which ones.

I'm pure Int maining in Cleric skills, and am thinking about Warlock as a subclass when I get to Lv4x-5x, to help me out. (and to only have to change rods, and not rod+shield for staff if using wizard sub) Does anyone have any suggestions on what skills I might start looking at? Both offensive and maybe handy PvP skills. Any help is appreciated.

I know Cleric/Wizard is the popular build (of an unpopular class) so I kinda want to stand out a little. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

I've been thinking about this myself. Except treating both as the characters main class. Would take a lot of farming, but the thought process was: debuff and DoT with warlock, switch to cleric rod and just heal yourself till they die, using cleric nukes when the opportunity comes up.

I'm a warlock/cleric. Lvl 30 atm.

I don't really see this combination to be more efficient than some other but there are some nice abilities that come with it.

You are almost always needed in a party. Everyone loves clerics. And if they already have a cleric, you can do your job as a warlock. (Come to think of it, I've only seen 1 or 2 warlocks on Mars besides me...) Warlocks are especially useful in a party when fighting strong mobs, meaning giants and party mobs. The debuffs make them go down a lot faster.

Also, a warlock who knows what he's doing is a life saver. Mobs tend to attack the cleric for some reason, and clerics go down fast if they're ganged. By using stun and sleep I've managed to keep our cleric alive many times, thus saving the whole party. Coz if the cleric dies, the rest of the party start dropping like flies...

Warlock also has a good chance to survive himself using stun and sleep.

Also switching between cleric and warlock is easy since you only have to switch the rod.

And using both classes in a party is useful too. You can debuff the enemy, then switch to cleric and start healing. And if there's a bigger fight going on, some party members killed and the cleric is busy healing others, just cast the debuffs (then you've basically done your part) and you can change to cleric and start ressing ppl.

As I said I'm only lvl 30 so I don't really know how a warlock/cleric will perform on higher levels.

If memory serves, Da_Realest is some sort of warlock specialist. Maybe he could tell more about high level locks....

for warlock i would think cleric would help a lot. it can help for pvp. u use stun skill then quckly swich to cleric rod and use offering skill

I was partying with a Warlock last night and their status skills drained the enemies a lot.

Would this be a worthy investment for a Cleric to sub with in higher levels? Inflict a ton of statuses then just stall it out with self-buffing and healing?

I will say best sub is bard, reason is bard is supportive as well and with your main cleric is equal to the ultimate supportive character.

My only concern is some buffs not lasting after a weapon switch, and having to switch both my Cleric Rod and shield back on.

This is the main reason Clr/Wlk and Wlk/Clr are comboed. Aggro control and healing. If you can afford the SP you could also take the Raze line to help with party giants/bosses.



Party clerics really don't need to sub bard. So many X/Bards in euro someone will have moving march. If you plan to solo a lot then okay...Noise will be useful. Why choose cleric if you are gonna solo a lot?
