Before getting into the builds of Clerics, you must first know what they have to offer for players in-game. They are devoted followers of a powerful deity, using their faith and divine magic to aid their allies and smite their enemies. Moreover, Clerics can heal wounds and cleanse curses which can help you and your companions in a pinch.
