Based on a forum user's concerns the Cleric couldn't beat the Arc, I tried to recreate some challenges the user was having.
First, Clerics not only beat the arc but have the low level records for doing so. This stress test is more for recreational purposes than fact-finding. EDIT Note: Everything was done on HARD.
Second, a lot of the challenges the player was having were self-imposed like running into a room to fight every one at once or not using shock resistance equipment.
But, hey, just to see if a Cleric could brute out a few fights in the arc:
A Level 18 Cleric entering with pre-arc equipment was able to clear the arc in one go (all of it, including the ending). Involved resting in the arc with batteries found in the arc.
A Level 18 Cleric with pre-arc equipment was able to beat TWO wizards and THREE spiders, with Radiation balls AT THE SAME TIME.
A Level 18 Cleric with pre-arc equipment was able to beat ONE Wizard and THREE spiders WITH TAKING ALL THE FIRE DAMAGE at the same time.
A Level 18 Cleric with arc equipment (but not using batteries for the emp) was able to take on the Battle Droid and all the spiders in the room at the same time. With batteries the same all-at-once fight is alot easier.
Obviously, the last three above are not examples of ideal combat tactics. But picking a large fight helps stress test the Cleric.
The cleric is a very durable class capable of surviving some insane onslaughts and capable of doing some pretty solid damage.
