Bard or Cleric sub?

I know it's been asked before, but I'm doubting for my Rogue to go with Bard or with Cleric sub.

- Bard: Noise and speed
- Cleric: Healing, bless, ress

My main problem is the Mana points. I looked at Rev6, and at lvl 40 I'll have 1277 MP as pure Strength. To cast Recovery Division at lvl 40, it costs 1272. This means I'll need a full mana bar and will have it empty after casting this single spell. This seems pretty annoying, and is my biggest reason not to go for cleric. But I'd like to hear from people with experience (so pure strength and cleric sub), what skills they use and if you have enough MP.

I know Bard is mainly PvE and Cleric PvP, but I'm more worried about the amount of MP.

The MP is not a problem at all, just buy large pots or so, the MP will continue to restore, and you can always put MP and INT blues on your gears.

I only use Recovery Division and in emergency situations, like when youre fighting a giant or 5+ mobs are attacking you simultaneously, just put Bless on, if you want also use Healing Cycle.

Dont mind about your mp if you need to recast recovery division.. mind more about your hp, you will save alot of hp pots. In addition if your playing xbow your hp potion needed amount will be near zero (just use some at a mob group, pt mobs or giants). In other situations at normal mobs you wont need more than 1 or 2 hits.

Get speed with speed drugs, but dont waste Cleric for this. :)

Cleric is very usefull in pvp, fortress, job and parties. not for solo.

Bard is also very usefull in parties. and soloing ofcourse. (speed)

All your choise but i would go Cleric :)
