Ah, the solo Cleric.
The best option then is to actually not do anything that you've listed. Your first application is to heal thyself for at least 3 points. Next would be Invincibility so you would build your defenses. It's critical that you alternate between these two since Clerics are one of the most weakest in the game for defenses, but keep Heal as your top priority. Holy Arrow, Bless, and MP Eater (especially MP Eater) don't need a lot of work at the moment. Right now it's best to to Heal and Invincibility.
You can apply points to Bless, but that's more of a party-support ability. However, since you'll be on your own, it's not too important (but it is important sometimes). It will provide a slight curve to your Avoidability, Weapon and Magic Defenses, but it's best to save that for maybe third on your list for applying points. Holy Arrow can also be third or fourth, depending on your preference, but for the first six levels, it's attack range is unstable, and can give you only 5-30 damages sometimes (but on undead monsters, it's a different story) which is a waste of MP.
MP Eater is actually sort of useless. Even though it's a passive ability, there isn't a lot of monsters that's worth the trouble for a precious SP or two or three. Even at my level, I haven't put anything on it.
Teleport comes in handy sometimes when you want to teleport between levels, make a quick get-away from anything, move faster, go behind a monster and back, etc., so you can also apply some points to it. It's going to be slightly hazardous though because your MP isn't all that high when you first start out for the first several levels, and with Teleport, it's going to do some formidable sapping to it.
This isn't everything though. Everyone has their different version of making their Cleric, whether solo or supportive. I'm just giving you suggestions based on how I've been doing so far.
Also, remember to do one more thing: PACE YOURSELF. If you don't want to spend so much money on pots and want to keep them for emergencies, take a sit somewhere, hang on a rope, and just wait a little. The game isn't going anywhere.

Erm, okay, you asked for help, and the next minute you bash on him? HArdly seems fair.
I don't have a cleric, but my brother does. And from what I've learned, by the end you should have Heal, Invincibility, Bless, and Holy Arrow Maxed. This is so that You're not pathetically weak and useless and only good for healing. If any points are left go do whatever you want. MP Eater doesnt help that much.
Seriously, don't ask for help unless you're going to accept what comes towards you, its not fair. Also, this should've been posted in 'Maple Help', this forum is used for introductions and newcomers. Sure you're a newcomer, but still, wrong forum.

In other words, he doesn't want to train with anyone and doesn't want to be a Supportive Cleric. He wants to train by HIMSELF. There are no Clerics in the game that's useless to the world. What a party pretty much wants is to be healed. That's it. Bless is just a bonus.I haven't gotten around to moving this thread yet, but I'll try to do that now.

Well, if you want to be a solo cleric than you should first max out heal(like always) then spread your points between holy arrow, mp eater, and invicibility.Leave the remaining points for teleport and if you want to, you can get bless but its not really helpful for a soloist.

heres a guide As a normal magician, you will need to keep your luk +3 above your level, that is possibly common knowledge for you people but just for the people that doesn't know. The proper first job build... You should have maxed MP recovery, maxed max MP increase, maxed magic guard, magic claw, and level 1 bolt. Cleric builds 1 Teleport -> 30 Heal -> 20 Teleport -> 20 Mp eater -> 5 inv -> 20 bless -> finish inv -> 11 free points Explanation: This build actually saves alot more money than going MP eater first unless you don't use teleport often (like me, one of the reasons why I didnt realise this earlier because I <3 speed equips), also 20 teleport is very useful at wraith maps. 1 Teleport -> 30 heal -> 5 invincible -> 20 bless -> 20 teleport -> 20 mp eater -> finish invincible -> 11 free point Explanation: Not recommended to go this build. As you can see, this build maxes the party skills early, but during early cleric levels soloing is much better exp than partying (IMO anyways), and also bless is not much useful anyways, if not counting the accuracy, the defence and avoid it gives is pretty much useless to any classes, accuracy is useful for warriors but all dexless/low dex warriors are usually funded enough and are able to hit the monster with 100% acc anyways. 1 Teleport -> 30 heal -> 30 holy arrow -> 20 teleport -> 5 inv -> 20 bless -> finish inv -> 1 free point Explanation: If you're gonna get holy arrow, you might as well get it early, getting it during 5x or 6x is not a good idea. Teleport Pros -Money saver -Allow you to teleport further -Useful in Guild PQ -Enable to teleport through fat monsters to avoid damage(although not needed) Cons -Boring at second job (personal preference) Holy Arrow Pros -Fun (completely personal preference) -Finally we get to use something other than magic claw -Enables you to kill faster 1v1 Cons -Usually high leveled priests regret getting it -It will become replaced by shining ray eventually -Save less money because of higher mp cost of teleport -Unable to Guild PQ if you're the only mage -Slower leveling due to heal being able to kill mobs + faster  that shoud help on Skill Point distribute and what u should put it in.

I choose 1. max everything except leave holy arrow at lvl 11, because you will probably get into parties easier with that one. Other than that, it is overall your choice.

My suggestion is that you don't touch holy arrow until you've maxed heal, after that, your going to be a good cleric, put holy arrow at 5, 10 and then leave it. Then work on bless.

Eh, i'm spending some money on nx to get my mp eater points into holy arrow.
The best build would be:
Heal: Maxed (First Priority, besides first point into mp eater)
Holy Arrow: Maxed (Second on the list)
Invincibility: Maxed (Third, for it reduces a lot)
Bless: Maxed (fourth/fifth for accuracy)
Teleport: Maxed (fifth/fourth, so you can move far)
This would be the best build for solo, since in your third job, Shining Ray is very very slow, and if you want to kill something really fast, like a boss, without wasting more mp, you would best use holy arrow. But this is my build.
If you want you can have it this way for money, and solo:
Heal: Maxed (First Priority, besides first point into tele)
Mp Eater: Maxed (Second on the list)
Invincibility: Maxed (Third, for it reduces a lot)
Bless: Maxed (fourth/fifth for accuracy)
Teleport: Maxed (fifth/fourth, so you can move far)
Holy Arrow: 11 points (eh, might as well)
I prefer the first build the best!

I thought MP Eater was essential, because it saved money?
