[POLL] Pure Battle Bard or Pure Battle Cleric?

*I tried searching and could not find anything*

Based on SOLO-ABILITY/attack power/damage output/damage received/buffs and other bonuses associated with each class, what is "the best"? Let's assume they both DO NOT have a subclass.

Please EXPLAIN your choice as well.

I would like YOUR opinion (please DO NOT say "whatever you like best").

Please no flames. Thanks

bards are have faster nukes than cleric, mana cycle, moving speed,and noise
clerics have heal, slower nukes, holy spell, bless spell, res, force and mental stuff to increase hp/mp/phys or mag def
but since u said battle id go bard

Well cleric has bless spell and the bufs to increase phys defence and mag defence and offering + he has shield and protector.

I'd say cleric

+1, it also has healing skills so the 15second pot delay doesn't affect it too much

Edit: I accidentally voted for Bard insted of Cleric on the Poll ^^

bard is better because you have tambours, noise, speed, and better (and faster) nukes

Well, bard is better imo..

But you can always go bard/cleric for recovery division.

I would say
Bard=>Fast damage & speed & tambours
Cleric=>Slow damage, slow speed, can "tank" more than a bard.

Clerics definitely have survivability, something that a bard would lack. Although a bard also has the advantage of move speed and the fast nukes that have extremely fast cd. For solo, there is no comparison i think its safe to say that a bard does better because of noise + move speed = fast killing alongside the fast nukes.

Ohyeah, I heard bard nukes are somewhat equal to the chinese nukes, but they have much faster cooldown & casting time

I currently have a lvl 32 wizard/bard. Is it worth getting bard skills over wizard skills from now on (meaning that my char will be bard/wizard)? Or should I stay wizard/bard?
NOTE: I DO NOT have the SP to max out both.

Help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

What would be the build and gap necessary to make a battle bard? I mean, only bard, with no sub, for killing, not supporting. I need a good build + skills, and I also need to know which gap would I need (Hopefully 0 since it has no sub)
