I think the point of this item is to make it clear to clerics that they are not a melee class :-). My froggie cleric will be getting this and using it for its stat bonuses.
don't EVER think that a cleric can't tank or fight.. heh heh... my dwarf cleric can tank with the best of them, and I don't mean that he can just hit a few times then run away crying... I mean that in most groups I am in with my cleric, I am the puller AND tank. now.. i know when to back off and med for heals... BUT, I tank none the less... and I still have a perfect record of never having ANYONE die in my groups :0)
WOW this thing sucks... i dont even see why they made this...i mean for christ sakes you might as well have made the this one Hammer of Wrath this thing blows
