Brig vs Hauberk

Speaking from a cleric standpoint, Is it worth the extra 400/80 Ptp/Mtp to be fully trained in hauberk?

Does brig do well enough for clerics or are you that much better off going for hauberk?

Continuing on my current path, I will be fully trained for hauberk by 118.

Otherwise I will stop with Brig at 38.

Yes, go for hauberk.

Are you not able to single in armor use? reg

my cleric is in chain mail.. the spell failure rate sucks, but I'll live with it.

Brig spell failure is what... 7%? Chain mail failure is 8%.. no big whoop.

Hauberk, OTOH, has a MUCH higher failure rate.

13 or 12 is it?
def worth it with growing pains coming, i trying to get my cleric in plate by cap 19 percent hindrance is a killer but i got a feeling he'll be swingin much more later on... reg
Hauberk is 12% hinderance, fully trained.

Taernath, I wasn't able to single and train how I wanted for the levels I wanted. I tried to train on a path that I know I can hunt..

Rats until 8,
Dirges and the bog area until 12,
Wolfshades until about 19,
Woodsmen + Wights until about 27.
Pooka's until I can get mares and steeds.
Then off to teras to swing at the living for awhile.

Other areas that I thought of for hunting grounds were Varanur, where brig would come in handy at 38 (40ish critters) and the corpses are good leveling at 23-30.

I wanted to hit various marks throughout my training, 5 ranks of Scroll Reading so I can get into the MC, Climbing and Swimming to certain points so I can access various areas in Solhaven easily. I didn't see much of a problem with getting brig at 38 instead of 30 because I will most likely be hunting things that can't touch me at those levels, and the brig will only be more hinderance and overkill.
