Preserve life can't heal anyone up to more than half maximum hp, so it's not like having an extra Heal spell at all?For fairly low levels, you have:Let's say both are used, we then get 17.5 vs 25.5, or 45% higher rate of healing, not 200%. The same goes for the higher level versions of these spells, at least until level 17.I think it's important to differentiate between in combat healing (which dramatically changes how tough opponents the party can handle) and out of combat healing (which affects how many combats the party can have in a day). Therefore, I think rate of healing, which is what you first mentioned is the thing to look for, or at least look at primarily.I also think that levels 1-10 are the most interesting ones. If you start looking at level 11-20 you start getting really funky things like the druid that can give himself close to infinite temp hp through shape changing.Anyway, I think the Life Cleric looks good, but it's not triple the rate of healing, it looks more like +30-50%. It's maybe triple the amount, but that is something I am fine with. It's out of combat and won't affect the balance in the game nearly as much as in combat healing rate.</blockquote>
