[QUOTE="jgsugden, post: 8386348, member: 2629"] I have two Order Clerics - a 100% Cleric of Order, and an archer PC with a mix of classes (Gloom Stalker 5, Divine Soul 7, Cleric of Order 1, Assassin 4, Battlemaster 3). My Githyanki full time Cleric of Order gets to use bigger weapons, but he stays in the front line to absorb damage more than he is concerned with damage dealing. He casts Spiritual Weapon and Spirit Guardian a lot, but he also casts out of combat spells like Aid and Death Ward that last and benefit the group and do not require concentration. However, his go to - the spell he casts more than any other - is healing word using a low level slot. As a Cleric of Order, this allows his allies to make an attack as a reaction. I am not rolling the attack or damage, but it makes a huge difference in the battle to have the rogue make an extra sneak attack, the paladin lay down another extra huge hit, etc... The healing is beside the point. He is about to learn Divine Word, and it will be hilarious hen he casts it and includes a healthy ally in it that will not be effected by it other than getting that attack. The archer also does a lot of healing words with a bonus action, although she also casts a lot of quickened haste, fireballs, invisiblity, etc... [/QUOTE]
