Alright, so after seeing some warrior action, I decided to try my hand at the warrior (especially for the phys + morale screens). At first, I was going to make my warrior 1h and cleric, but then I saw Vapore's warrior-warlock video and decided to try a warrior-warlock. Right now, I've got my warlock mastery only at 24 and my warrior mastery at 40, only 1 hand masteries trained up at the moment. The thing is, warlock sub-class takes a ton of SP, and there aren't many euro parties in pacific, nor do I especially want to go to insanely long powerlevels. Plus, I like the look of the Dare Devil skill (damage and animation!), so I'm thinking of going back with my 1h - 2h - cleric plan.

I'd like to be OK at 1v1, but I figure I might be useful as a resser and with recovery division particularly if I'm partying with mostly Chinese, which will be the case 90% of the time, and being useful in group battle is my main goal.

Thanks for your help!

i will vote for for warlock, cause de-buffs+1h skills+ stronger than 2h skills. plus warlock have curses which look pretty cool, and are pretty helpful :).but if you wanna shine in a party, cleric sub would be better.

Off Topic: Your avator is hilarious :P :D.

I wont vote because I would go for warlock but because you dont like to farm so much for it, you'd be better off with cleric getting recovery division/bless/reverse obligation and the other blesses..(dont forget holy word/spell btw) =]

If you want awesome damage and killing fast; warlock!
If you want awesome defense and killing a bit slower; cleric!

I would stay warlock, cause it is a bitch to delvl a mastery, or start over from scratch. Warlock is also good at group battles cause u will hav AoE debuffs and leech skills. Also, most group battles will already have a full time cleric, and at least 1 other with a cleric sub, so why not be different and take warlock as ur sub. :D

As for ur sp problem I would either open up a gap, or since u seem around 40, farm at peneons at 52. Also, 1h+2h+cleric will cost u more sp than 1h/warlock.

OK just to clarify--
a) money / delvling is not really a problem, and I'll be mulling over this anyway, since I'll just take warrior to at least 64 before I decide for sure.

b) Very few main clerics in Pacific, if it were Venus its another thing, though there are sub-clerics.

c) Thanks for your responses everyone. I think I definitely won't rush to delvl warlock quickly anymore, I'll wait to see if the guild would rather I be another resser

BTW switching to warlock in group PvP won't happen much.... why would I debuff someone if it means all the wizards and rogues (most of the euros in my guild) die?
