[QUOTE="Victim, post: 4347364, member: 78"] Unlike wizard walls, Blade Barrier only does damage to people in/moving through the wall, not to adjacent people. Also, as a wall it has limitations about shape - you can't double up on wall thickness, so a tightly packed group won't all be hit with the initial effect. And Wall 5 is pretty small as far as walls go. Also, Flamestrike adds your WIS to the ongoing damage. That's a pretty sweet and unusual feature. Flamestrike is also selective damage, so you can drop it on enemies mixed with your party. Searing Light is far less effective against creatures with additional senses. Break the Will also combos nicely with Divine Oracle. Divine Aid is mostly nice because it actually grants an unnamed bonus to the save. It's not exactly the best choice, IMO, but depending on what other powers you have it still might be worthwhile. A cleric lacking in other powers to affect saves might want to retrain into at higher levels. [/QUOTE]
