[QUOTE="Mustrum_Ridcully, post: 3876146, member: 710"] I think a party of Cleric would play very different from playing a single Cleric. If there is only one Cleric, he is the healer (and buffer). If you enjoy that, this is certainly a good class, but if you want to do more, it's difficult. In a party, everybody can heal himself, or only one of the Clerics is delegated to be the healer. The other Clerics can use the fun spells and wade into melee. -- What I really wonder is: How can there be so different experiences with Clerics? What are the differences in the combat I (and others with the "Clerics = unfun" experience) run, and those that enjoy playing their Clerics (if it isn't just that they are fine with being the healer)? I know that I usually play in a group with 3 other party members, and that we often run 25-point buy characters in Paizos Adventure Paths or other published modules, often playing slightly underpowered compared to our opposition.
