During Combat The cleric casts magic weapon and shield of faith. If she has minions, she orders them to attack so she can use magic from a distance. She casts darkness to hide in and channels negative energy. If forced out of the darkness, she disables targets with bestow curse, blindness, and poison, then uses her spiked chain.
