A small confusion about holy symbols. Quoted from players
"...A cleric wearing or holding a magic holy symbol can add its enhancement bonus to the attack rolls and the damage rolls of cleric powers"
So a cleric can wear or hold. Why would they ever hold? (I mean ever)
This has me over a barrel because its like clerics have a "hidden" bonus in that where other classes are obligated to wield implements, clerics get this little joker in that they have there own little special slot for holy symbols.
I used the character builder to see what it would reveal in the topic, but it listed a symbol as an off hand weapon whilst allowing a specialized neck slot! But it gets worse, when I equipped the item by double clicking, it unequipped the shield he had! But I could manually (and legally) force it to equip both.
Confused as buggery and hoping someone has an official clarification they can link me to.
