Is a battle cleric at all possible?

Dawnfire, Morningstar of Light makes for fun times in LGuk, KC basement, The Hole undead tower. Even easier with a manastone to get mana back between pulls or do the swing, sit, med tick, stand, swing dance.

The main benefit to leveling as a melee-focus cleric is that your defense skill will be kept at max. It becomes quite a headache to raise defense once you're at the point where mobs hit for 150+ a whack.

At some point (possibly post-SoL, but I don't remember), Clerics got some melee love in the form of bash skill, enhanced undead damage spells, and supe'd up Yaulp line - IIRC.
