i ment i see the clerics good in DEFENCE. that includes that double miracle stuff. standing somewhere and someone enters would set him quite in a bad shape.
in HUNTING, as the fight against rex, and as explained above for the taniels, all your miracles but the preparations are rather useless, especially when you need to follow your enemy.
a crit version for miracles, some way of beeing unpredictable, would change that and meanwhile the defence would be lowered with not beeing (that much) able to use the double miracle effect and the chance to be interrupted.
what i finally am suggesting is increasing clerics operation zone in hunting and decreasing clerics strength on one place.

The double miracle "trick" is to request a miracle and "hold" it without releasing it, then requesting a second one. Right as the second one is going to be granted, release the first one and a split second later the second one (using your favourite macro/stopwatch to calculate this).Aslak wrote:I think he meant possible crit effects on miracles, real crits that can kill instant.
Adding variance to casting time will drastically reduce cleric's ability to do this.

Variable cast time is kinda weird. Melee don't have variable swing time and archers don't have variable load time. I wouldn't mind crit spells, but keeping cast times the same. Especially if spells can be interrupted.
The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world.

yep, spears and swords are simply awful.
