It looks like most of people didn't see further than their own
nose again, so I try to clarify my priestly ideas for you again.

Atm. the only mages,psis and channellers can join conjurers,
which are essential for doing almost anything. For certain
reasons mages are most used combo for this and since mages are
very expcostly guild, its not well suitable for midbies (at
this moment almost everyone is highbie and in mage guild,
0 psis and one channeller)

If priests could join conjurers, midbies could do eq and such
more easily since priests are fairly cheap guild.

This would make exping and everything more easy for everyone,
since conjus are a must in almost any party combination,
except offutrains, but then again, priests wont fit that party
anyways. Since most mages are highbies and want just to do
exp/eq with friends. It's quite common that there just isn't
enough conjurers for every party.

Priests are crimson guild of casters, but could be made more
interesting for everyone with this slight change.

And if you are thinking "but priests are evil religious and
conjurers belong to magical background", think about some
recent guildtunes, we already have multiple background guilds.

Conjurers are not a must in eqparties. I've done eq where I've protted the
party with just a druid and we did ok. I've also done eq where I've protted
the party with folklorists and we still did ok.
They weren't topend stuff, but hey, nobody would expect to do a 1M monsie
without conjurers anyway.
And to give conjurers to priests would be giving way too much power to
evil_religious people, I can just think of the reaverpriestconjurer soloing
whatever he feels like.
There are alternatives to the conjurers anyway, priests get PFG, nuns PFE,
civilized has folklorists, runemages, even bards to some extent. Then there
are druids that do ok for frontrow protters.
Then there's nothing really wrong with good old channellerconjurer either.
Except the fact that no oldbie wants them in their party because "they suck
too much".
So, giving conjurers to evil_religious would only give the backround even more
power than it already has, and I would dare say it's already the most powerful
backround we have. Just don't do it.
P.S. I do agree that priests are a wee bit boring as it is, but there are
other ways to make it work than this.

Reavers, tigers, whatever could be easily outcluded
from joining conjurers, problem fixed.
