Best Solo Melee class ?Follow

Are we playing the same game?! Even with thier smite spells thier DPS is abysmal to say the least undead or not they wouldnt even rank top 5...

You dare say wrong plate armor does not make a good tank there is mitigation, discs and AAs that pallys SK's and warr's get that clerics never see. just because they can heal themselves dont make them a good tank that makes them a mana sponge.

Clerics are very tough but to even call them a real tank class is silly, They couldnt hold aggro to save thier lives (Healing dont generate the aggro you think it does) on top of the constant downtime there would be from them having to constantly heal themselves.

And if everything you said was even true your looking at it the wrong way everything you listed as a plus for clerics should be listed under pallys because of the fact they have better mitigation more HP's and AA's that make a tank well...a tank. Lastly if you really think clerics are that great of tanks you have not seen some skilled SK's a good SK with the gear and AA's are very impressive to watch between the ability to tap tank, pull and snare that with the mitigation and AA's trumps the cleric as well.

Besides the question was "whats best solo melee class" clerics are definately not that.

i have two clerics, one is a lvl 68 high elf, the other is a 51 human. the reason i started the second cleric, is because of how well healing does pull aggro.. my high elf is a wus, and couldnt take the punishment dealt out when i would heal and get aggro. My human cleric is much better equiped to take a beating, ie augs, aa's in sta, dex, all the things i didnt think i needed with the first one. i realize im only 51, but i can solo a yellow mob, or two white at a time. i wouldnt class myself as a solo class, but, i can handle my self if need be.

the reason i didnt go aa instead of re rolling, is she was a sit on her butt cleric all her life... which means she has no defensive or offensive skills... in order to get def up i would have to take some kind of beating which she couldnt...i started her back in 2000 when clerics were supposed to sit and stare at their book while others had all the fun. also, back then, she was created when you put your own points in, and being my first toon, she wasnt created very well... i play EQ to have fun.. is why i pay for 4 accts. If re rolling is what it took for me to enjoy playing a cleric...so be it... im actually having fun with her..revisiting all the old zones, camping for my epic 1, etc... so, suffice it to say, im Glad i re rolled;) one thing that helps, is my hubby has a 68 war he created back in 2000 as well. like me, he didnt make it too well.. so, he is having fun playin a lil war again as well. we make a pretty good duo.

im sure you can.. but to me, re- rolling, visiting old zones, getting in the action instead of sitting, getting old keys, flags and doin progression, is fun... more fun then standing in the arena, and letting someone hit me enough to build up 68 lvls worth of defense... thanks for the input tho..

I can solo very well with my Ber. very fast kills lots of fun can even kite if i want to . fear kite or normal kite lol.can solo easy in sunderrock
