A recent post mentioned something about human clerics of Innoruuk having access to a ton of cool items, and it piqued my interest. For Green, I'd been thinking I'd roll up a druid for some casual fun out in the Karanas since they're pretty decent in lower level groups and obviously great soloers. However, I'm now thinking I may want to roll up an evil cleric and hunt down these neat items.

I guess my main question is are clerics pretty decent soloers in straight classic? They're pretty weak soloers on blue, but that's mostly relative to fungi twinks with 1/2 ratio weapons and the like. When gear is pretty bad all around, do they stack up better? Undead nukes are pretty efficient and they can pull, root, stun, etc. Seems like they might not be half bad in a twink-free environment?

Ultimately I'd want to group as much as possible, but I'd like having the option to solo here and there when I'm short on time.

I played a cleric and did end game raiding stuff till just after Planes of Power.

Clerics are not good soloers, they are inefficient and slow. Undead is basically the only thing you have a chance with and even then it's not quick.

Bad dmg mitigation considering they wear plate and melee dmg is terrible. Even with a planes of power Tallon Zek proc hammer, hammer pet and the latest melee buffs they are just not good solo.

Much easier to group.
