FS Cleric - Str or Dex ?

Hi, i just started Rose again (Haven't played since IRose Beta haha). I started a cleric last week and am now around 160, i have followed different guides and read many posts in the forums but i still hesitate between Int-Dex, Int-Str or Int-Dex-Con.
I play full support most of the time that's to say i don't often engage mobs, i just would like to know High Lvl Cleric opinions.

Int-Dex : without con, just for the dodge ? is the amount of dodge obtained sufficient ?
Int-Str : drop the dex-con and just go for +hp and def ? If you don't want to engage monsters and just play PVM isn't a better def and hp the best ?
Int-Dex-Con : The build i've seen in the cleric guide sticky on this page. Do you experienced clerics really find it interesting to be able to atk monsters ? Wouldn't you want more dodge or def to support better ?

Personally i think a FS should have max int for buffs and the best defense (dex or str?), because you need to be alive to keep your party alive. But it's also true it can be annoying not being able to touch any mob.

What do you guys think ?

Being a FS cleric would be in a FULL INT stat base . After making it to max/400, put some in STR. But I'll just remind u 1 thing on being a FS cleric. You will get bored easily on just giving buffs. With my experience on my cleric, I've used a stat reset just to rebuild my stats, making it to a battle cleric that can farm would be nice on my opinion. Having a 400/max int does a difference on your buffs/self buffs but still u will learn at the end of the day that you will think of a cleric that can kill and at the same time be a support type.

Full int left pts dex->pve (dodge clerics are not that strong in pvp/war at the moment ;( )
Full int left pts Str->more pvp FS cleric but also pve possible
but there are also other builds...

if your an FS id go for INT-STR... your name tells it all.. FULL SUPPORT..
but if you want to support but able to handle mons as well.. id go INT-DEX.. is it true DEX add a little AP?
i stand corrected if not..

right now i have a 130+ cleric.. im not party lvling coz i go farming alot.. so i did INT-DEX-CON cleric.. i maxed out AP stat-wise and equipment-wise.. well then if self-support applies thats me.. LOL!

yes dex gives atk power to clerics
i use int/str build on mine

I've always used a int/str build on my clerics and been satisfied in pvm. However, I never really enjoyed PvP so I can't confirm if it's good or not, even though I heard it was.

I actually like to kill instead of standing around buffing and healing when farming or leveling. So I went max int, then con to my level or a bit higher, then the rest str for defense. Seems to work well for me, but I also have the stuns and mute for attack. I wear int gear for buffs and I have def gear for farming and wars. At any monster in game I can stand in the middle of the mobs and still buff and heal with the def gear on. When you use skills on a mob or person they are 100% reliable but if your con isn't high enough then you don't do much damage.

I think if you go max int and str or dex for now you will be ok. If you like to hit some add con to your level. I am sure once you are higher you might change ur stats. It all depends on what you like to do and how you play. Good luck and welcome back.
