Caduceus of Sacrament  

 

But now its not worth questing. For about the price of the platinum bars (well, a little more), you can buy a Centi warhammer (I paid 325 for mine, didn't bother to haggle). Not only is the ratio better (15dmg/32dly), but it has wisdom, strength, and stamina modifiers as well. In addition, it is much lighter than this anchor of a weapon, so doesn't suck your stamina down as fast (or contribute to encumberance as much).

Now, I'm not saying not to do the sol-ro armor quests, In fact My cleric was decked out in nearly a full set at one time, since the ac is nice, and the quests are mostly very easy. In fact, the bracers are very nice, and are the only piece of this armor I still use at lvl 44. This weapon, on the other hand, is not so hot. If you want to do the quest, purely for the satisfaction of completing all the sol-ro quests, fell free. But don't do it for the weapon.

For those who say the Cleric in a group should just Med/Heal infinitely, I have one question.

Why continue Meditating if you're FM when your group pulls something?

Add a little more to the damage and hasten the sucker's death- after the tanks land a couple hits, step up and crack the sucker in the noggin a few times until the prime tank is about to need healing. THEN back off and start the Heal/Med cycle.

Aggro? Notice I said to let the tanks get in a few shots first? After that, they should hold the mob's attention easily (unless your tanks are pitiful meelees, you're not gonna outdamage them to draw aggro). And if you're worried about the first Heal drawing aggro onto you when added to the meelee you did, well why d'ye think most tanks have a Taunt skill? Stand still so they can get its attention, then step back slowly out of range. Or, if you're high enough to have it, stop meeleeing a few hits earlier and fire Atone first to cut your aggro back down before you heal.

I've survived fights that had the Cleric from FM to empty in spite of solid Meditation between heals and left all tanks within a couple MOB hits of any given person dying. Why? Because that same Cleric who started at FM used his brain and helped to damage the thing before heals were needed instead of just sitting on his rump. The damage he added made the thing die a couple of rounds earlier, and that's all the time it would have needed to get at least one kill on us.

Every Little Bit Helps. A motto that's kept me alive more times than I care to count.

Just some food for thought.

To the Guy that says any cleric worth his salt will just med, med, med, heal! LOL
so clerics never get jumped from behind while traveling, not to mention just to finish off a mob after root...nuke. Im so tired of all the twinks in this game putting equip down, im playing the game the way its suppposed to be played, by earning everything! and at 30 lvl this would be a nice peace of hardware 8)!

Good weapon for the mid level Cleric. Even better if you are able to get this in the low twenties.
No stats on it, but the damage is very nice.
