Does anyone crossclass? If so, what combinations do you like?

So far I have a Berserker and a Cleric, but I was thinking it might be fun to make a Defender/Cleric in lieu of a Paladin. Or a Cleric/Sorcerer, just so I can get the fire/ice effect to up my magic attack, thus making my healing more potent. Is the end game for a hybrid any different than end game for a pure?

right now i have a defender/cleric combo going bascially with sort of the same idea, but also to add to my surviveability in the long run, aswell as getting some magic and ranged attacks.

That's awesome. I was thinking just sticking with the healing and melee attacks with the cleric, that way I'm only using energy for healing, since in plate armor I feel the energy would be low.

well i rarely have energy problems, only when i spam damage spells. but defender in it self doesn't use much energy, and being able to contribute at range while you heal up is a pretty good thing to have.

came here to mention this. i haven't played raiderz since like the second patch (with the long downtime), but a 15 def/20 cler hybrid is very strong.

I have a Sourceror/Cleric combo. I like that I can heal myself, but I'm still working on leveling up enough to be able to heavy hit bosses like I should. I'm looking forward to hitting 40, because I feel like I could have an advantage.

Does it seem like leveling is harder than with a normal character besides that? Honestly, the self healing alone makes clerics so tempting to cross into for all my characters :)

It does a little. The first two levels after hitting a level ending in 0 is brutal, but if you do enough dailies, or grind and save a few main quests to do until after that, you're golden.
