im a lv 60 bard/cleric on eldo and rarely die with robes...
i can pt up to lv 73 mobs with good pt and be fine, or more normally around lv 63-64 and still be fine (no real pts on eldo now lol)

but I can also solo pt sniper if no other mobs are near me

LA if you plan on cleric masteries matching bard, robe if you are primarily bard and cleric is lower or a sub with no passives. Also robe is slightly more useful for PvP - not that a bard is made for PvP.

I think with cleric maxed, LA would make for a much stronger 1v1 pvp. My friend has the passives maxed, and once he switches to cleric rod, hard as hell to kill.

Bard already has increased mp for skills and speed, so i'd say LA is better, assuming you can afford it.

I meant the sp cost of maxing the 2 passives. LA is always cheaper since wizards/bard takes robe.

LA is more expensive in lower levels since most will use it with cleric sub

at higher levels, robes are preferred so they get more expensive... warriors and wizards mainly at cap lol and they tend to use robes. rogues stick with light armor often but they aren't as numerous as warrior/wizard
