Snuffletrout:
Clerics and Rouges are the best if you want to focus on just one Character. Both of them have the possibility to cover all aspects, or nearly at least. While Rouge can't be a pure healer the Bard is an excellent Support healer.

Warriors can: DPS, Tank
Mages can: DPS, Heal
Rouges can: DPS, Support, Tank
Clerics can: DPS, Off-heal, Heal, Tank

The downside with Clerics is as they say "Jack of all trades but master of none", because while they're supposed to be best Healer, there's a lot of people complaining the Mage's Chloromancer is the best healer. However as a Cleric you can switch between 3 pure healing specs and create great syngeries between them, and have several healing roles for different types of uses, for example its good to have a Sentinel/Purifier spec and a Sentinel/Warden spec to switch between, and Sent/Warden is always very welcomed in PvP and can do some massive healing.

Another thing that is good with Clerics and Rouges is that while their abilities do scale, both Healing and Barding doesn't really call for high end gear, just good timing and a good role. So basically you can jump in on much higher tier events in these roles then as a Mage or Warrior. And there's always room for you in a dungeon group, while Warriors seem to have some problems there -if they are DPS that is.

Turned out to be a lot of text... Sorry  :wink:

Yeah I understand all that, I've done a lot of reading :)

I'm probably going to try healing as full Sentinel first because from what I understand it plays a lot like a holy priest, which was my bread and butter in WoW. Probably going to try to stay away from warden just cause I hate trying to maintain HoTs. I mean, as a secondary soul I'm sure it'll be fine but I don't see my self enjoying full warden.

That is, if I still end up playing at all. Evidently there's an issue specific to ASUS laptops (what I'm playing on) that cause the game to be practically unplayable due to FPS issues half of the time. They'll have to fix that first before I go spend money on this thing.

Snuffletrout:
Generally full of anything is bad for Clerics (except DPS).
You get some points over anyway, I recommend Purifier as your second soul and Warden as third just for the free Healing Spray which is a nice Instant.
Its what I used as my healing spec up until lvl 50. 32/34 Puri/Sent is great and makes some nice synergies. :)

Im sorry to hear about your FPS issues :(
