Tanking is one thing - but my cleric duos with hubby's ranger and now that we hit level 10 and he has critical shot (and other goodies), there is no way in heaven or hell that I'm taking aggro away from him unless I get really lucky. For that, a pally might be (should be?) better.
My melee damage is laughable, too. Oh, I'm competent solo, but if I solo for an hour or so and then duo up with him, I usually fall about laughing for the first 5 minutes as stuff that took me ages to kill folds up like wet tissue paper under his attacks.
Funny thing is, I usually play offensive-fighter types myself - but I'm really enjoying the cleric enormously. I might take forever to kill things, but they sure can't kill *me*, even when they bring 2 buddies along.
