Dark elf cleric gimped?

[RayC]

hey all I been playin gs for 20 plus years and have finally capped my bard, so I am now forging and looking at some alts I rolled over a decade ago, one is a dark elf cleric whom is now 14 trains, I respec to a warder cleric and havin fun, as I approached my 18 trains I started doin my homework on rezzin and was dismayed a bit to find my race the lowest in spirit regen, I am not sure why I started out as a dark elf back then but I'm sure rp had a lot in my thought process. my question is will I be a viable rezzer with my spirit now at a 9, or will I be gimped as rezzin cleric, curious as I am considering making a whole nother cleric and startin from zero.I would like to know thoughts on this or any others with a dark elf cleric. thx

Post your skills and stats but I don't think you will really have problems, especially with 9 spirit already. Raise dead(318) changes total spirit loss/drain with cleric spell ranks. https://gswiki.play.net/Raise_Dead_(318)

Slow spirit regen will probably be the only thing that really bothers you. And if you join Voln then Symbol of Dreams will offset it.

well that's good news then, and yes I'm in voln 5th step

I thought I heard that stats could be change before 20, but not sure that's true without a reroll

[Methais]

You can redo your stats and skills up until level 20. I'm not sure if there's a limit to how many times, but pretty sure it's unlimited.

[Orthin]

Stats is limited (think 6 total?) but skills unlimited changes

To change stats you have to check in at the inn versus using the goals verb in SF

[RayC]

ahhh very cool, ill study the stats then, thanks all for the info!

Dark elves make terrible clerics because they don't believe in god

[Gelston]

Once you get the actual resurrection version on 318, spirit isn't as big of a problem.

My cleric is an atheist and he raises people with science.

Yeah, Voln also gives symbol of renewal, which restores spirit. Between meditate, dreams, and renewal (and doesn't 203 boost spirit regen?), you can get spirit back plenty fast.

Even without Voln, the spirit cost of a raise is pretty low once you hit 40 cleric spell ranks. It's only 25% of the target's max spirit, so most raises only take 2 spirit. It's not capped at level, either, so you can train a level 20 pocket cleric up to 340 and raise with no trouble.
