are you planning to solo to cap or to party to cap?

partying is almost a guarenteed bard. Less you go like this

bard till 79, 9 gap at cahsers barding with 70 bard

delvl bard to 0 and lvl cleric.



bard gives you almost NO advantage in pvp.

cleric ftw.

After spending some time experimenting with different builds, I just recently decided to stick with my Rogue/Cleric. The reason why I chose to stick with that build was because it's reliable and very solid. Cleric is a good sub mastery for any build.

If you like to PVP and job, then go with cleric. You'll have bless spell, recovery division, holy spell, healing cycle... It makes surviving much easier. Cleric is also helpful with giants, imo. I usually grind on mobs a lot higher than me (around 3-5 levels higher sometimes), and if I have trouble with a giant, I just put on bless spell on and heal my HP with healing cycle.

I can kill higher level mobs easy without noise, and I can buy moving speed scrolls or speed potions if I want to move faster. Compared to a rogue/bard, I don't grind as fast but I can survive in PVP a lot longer.

The only downside to choosing cleric would be not having noise/moving march (which you can live without) and the MP it takes just to cast some of the cleric skills (not a lot of MP for a pure STR).

Bard has it's good points, too. A lot of people who don't like to PVP choose bard so they can grind quicker. It's also helpful if you like to hunt uniques and party play. You can still PVP well without cleric, but it'll be a lot harder. I'm actually considering switching cleric for bard just so I can grind quicker.

Like I've said before, both are really good choices. It just depends on your style of playing.

another way to look at it is:
Rogue/cleric-->a LOT more farming for skills
Rogue/bard--->u only need xbow +moving/swing march and noise so u can almost 0 gap to cap i thnk

You would be able to 0 gap if you had a premium and SP ticket. Without one, you'd probably would only need to keep a small gap.
