Cleric classes

Skills/abilities
- Restoration. Enhancement. Debilitation. Clerics keep their team in the fight by bolstering their combat abilities and cursing their enemies. Far from simply supporting their allies through healing, a Cleric is also capable of wielding destructive force in the face of danger.[1]
- There will be a healthy combination of healing and offensive spells available to allow a Cleric to level and progress as a solo player. It's left to the player to decide whether they will spec into more solo or support-oriented group-focussed gameplay. Choice of a secondary archetype will enable further customization in this respect.[2][3]
- There's going to be a significant amount of offensive capability for the Cleric because we don't want to create that dynamic where cleric as a support class is inoperable without a companion or a party to go with. We want that Cleric to still be able to survive on their own: to be able to level and progress as a solo player.[3] – Steven Sharif

- Clerics have control over life and this may relate to utility abilities that relate to corruption.[9]
Cleric augments
Classes with Cleric as a secondary archetype are able to choose between life or death augments.[10][11]
- Choosing life augments will provide self-healing benefits as well as limited life-giving benefits to other players.[12][13][10]
- Some cleric augments applied to certain skills will indirectly provide the ability to heal others. These will not replace the need for a cleric archetype.[14]
- Cleric augments will radically change the type of summons available from the summoner primary archetype.[15]
- Any class that's going to choose Cleric as a secondary class will have the ability to pick from those augments to influence their skills to affect the life of others around you.[10] – Steven Sharif
