The last few days, I have mostly played my Undead priest. (Were are all the lurkers on the Horde side on Tenares?). I just hit level 12 and was mostly finnished with quests in the starting area (that I can do solo at least) so I moved to silver pine forest nad have got into huge problems. It is horribly hard to survive due to a few reasons.
* I have not found any way for a priest (at this level) to keep monsters away from you. Mages (which also are cloth users) seems to have some sort of frost spell for example), meaning I typically end up in melee range quickly.
* I have cloth only and have at the moment less Armor than my starting paladin at level 2!!! This means I take lots of damage.
I have a horrible time fighint same level monster (although this I usualy manage), currently bears and spiders and some odd wolf (worg). However, just moving up to level 13 foes (and most are this level) it is typically a 50/50 chance of me dying or simply being able to get away with 3 lifes left or something but no kill. My Druid on the other hand, cruised through quests at this level, typically fighting monsters 2 or 3 levels above or taking on 2 monsters of the same level at the same time, without a sweat or having to find some optimal skill combination.
Am I missing something? Are there some secrets to how the priest manage at this level? I didn't have much problems before (even with higher level monsters) as long as I stuck fighitng 1v1.

There are three types of people in the world. Those who can count and those who can't.
