Cleric Build Calculator
The Dark and Darker Cleric build calculator on MetaBot lets you experiment with every piece of gear available to the Cleric, covering all armor slots, both weapon slots, rings, necklaces, and utility items, and see your full stat totals update in real time as you make each change. Armor rating, magic resistance, weapon damage, move speed, action speed, and all attribute bonuses are calculated from the actual item database, so every number in the stat panel reflects what you would genuinely have in a dungeon run at that exact gear combination. The item picker automatically filters to only show gear the Cleric can legally equip, so you are always choosing from valid options without needing to memorize class restrictions yourself. Skills, spells, and perks are all selectable from the Cleric's complete pool, letting you factor in ability based stat bonuses and passive effects alongside your gear choices. The training dummy section calculates expected damage output against different enemy armor values so you can compare weapon choices numerically before spending gold on the market. When your build is finalized, save it and generate a shareable link. Anyone who opens it loads the exact same Cleric configuration in the calculator. The community tab shows the highest voted Cleric builds submitted by other MetaBot users, ranked by upvotes, giving you starting points across every budget and playstyle. Load any community build directly into the calculator to inspect each item choice, tweak individual slots, and see exactly how changes affect your stats before committing the build to a real dungeon run.
