Aion Class Preview - The Cleric 1

Immerse Yourself In The ClericThe Cleric is one of only two healing classes in Aion; both come from the priest archetype, but the Cleric is the closest to a traditional healer of the two. Armed with an arsenal of player buffs, heal over time and direct heal spells, the Cleric is an essential element of any complete group. Strengths:Ability to wear chain armor, allowing for higher survivability than cloth casters. Powerful heals that when used properly can make the Cleric nearly impossible to kill. Bulk of their power comes from ranged abilities, further enhancing survivabilityLow damage output when soloClerics are Aion's healers of the mind and bodyThe Cleric possesses the ability to resurrect its allies which no other class can do. While the Chanter is more of a dedicated group buff class with strong damage potential, the Cleric is very much the healbot or walking potion of the group. Healing in Aion, however, is a very dynamic process and resource management is key to being an effective healer here.Unique AbilitesClerics learn a race specific Divine Power skill at level 10. The Elyos get Salvation while the Asmodians get Pandaemonium's Protection , a different name for the same ability that allows the player to trade two thousand Divine Power points for 50% of their maximum mana and hit points. Divine Power (DP) is accumulated by killing mobs or Baldur, it is not a resourse to be used lightly as it is not gained quickly or easily.
