Aion 2 Cleric Build

Keep the party alive. Bring them back if not.

Cleric is the only pure healer and the only class that can resurrect allies mid-fight, which makes it essential for group PvE and organized PvP. Pick it if you enjoy keeping a team alive more than topping damage charts.

What is the best Cleric build in Aion 2?

A healer build that keeps HoTs rolling and spends the downtime on damage. Chain of Torment sets up Condemnation, Earth Punishment guarantees its crit, and crits keep resetting it. Healing stigmas rotate into the flex slot depending on the content. For PvP, the Unkillable Support (PvP) setup trades some damage for control and survival. Prioritize HP, MP, Combat Speed in PvE.
  • PvE tier A: The only pure healer and only in-combat resurrection, rated S for group play by MetaBot. Low personal damage keeps it out of S overall.
  • PvP tier A: Resurrection, cleanses and Voice of Doom anti-heal are invaluable in organized group PvP, though it is weak in one-on-one fights.

How the Cleric plays

Cleric heals from 20 meters with a mix of heal-over-time, burst heals and cleanses, and still contributes Earth and Wind damage between heals. Light of Regeneration should almost always be running, with Radiant Recovery and Absolution saved for big hits and debuffs. Weaving your basic attack keeps MP healthy. Party buffs like Light of Protection and Yustiel's Power raise group output and survival, while Voice of Doom gives you strong anti-heal in PvP. Solo play is slow, so this class shines with friends or a legion.

Strengths

  • + Only pure healer and only in-combat resurrection
  • + Party damage toggle and a party tolerance cooldown
  • + Salvation grants a short full immunity
  • + Voice of Doom heavily reduces enemy healing and potions

Weaknesses

  • − Slow solo kill speed
  • − Very little hard CC
  • − Smallest share of top Combat Power players

Cleric FAQ

Is Cleric the only healer in Aion 2?＋

Cleric is the only pure healer and the only class with an in-combat resurrection. Chanter can also heal but plays as a hybrid support.

Is Cleric good for solo?＋

It is the weakest solo class. You can farm safely, but your kill speed is slow compared with damage classes.

Should I run Light of Protection with a Chanter in the party?＋

Usually not. Light of Protection and Chanter's Undefeated Mantra do not stack, so coordinate and swap to another stigma if your Chanter is running Mantra.

What are the best stigmas for Cleric?＋

For PvE, run Light of Protection, Earth Punishment, Prayer of Amplification and a flex slot such as Benevolence, Absolution or Summon Resurrection. In PvP, Salvation, Summon Resurrection and Voice of Doom are the core.
