Unless you're a raiding cleric, or exclusively do content where your manapool to CH is the primary focus. Otherwise you're a complete waste of time like a petless mage, or a dps warrior using a shield in an xp group to not be max cha. Absolutely hamstrings the class into doing healing only, which for the vast amount of content is the least efficient way to play.
Cleric's a very active class. It gets worse and worse the more reactively you play it; all the way down to sitting in a wall pressing CH in order (ie, the soul destroying shittiest way to play/a nessesary evil).

This is very delusional.
Cleric's job is to heal. You have to press C-heal at high levels, a lot, or you're simply being inefficient. You can do some more active stuff, but at the end of the day a group's capability of grinding through MOB's is going to be largely based on how much the Cleric can heal; other classes can do those "active" things in the Cleric's kit. Wisdom is the most important stat overall because more mana = more ability to save the group when things get rough (which doesn't just mean healing, it also means having mana to cast another Root).
Charisma only really affects Lull spells for the Cleric (Divine Intervention on themself is not something that will be used much). Yes it's helpful to have more ability there, it can even be the most important stat if you plan on doing a specific Duo where the Cleric is needed for crowd control capability, but overall Raiding and Grouping (or Duo with an Enchanter), is more common than a Cleric spending their time in a Duo with a Magician or something.
