It is meaningful when Bishops level at 1/4th the speed of other jobs, when they are also fully playing their roles in a party. Assuming you can't afford +3000 int, that is. Which should be the majority of Maplers.
It's funny, actually. Bishops used to sell leech to people hanging on ropes, being the fastest levelers. Now Bishops hang on ropes leeching from other people, being the slowest levelers. While some might call this karma or divine justice, I call it poor game design.
Bishop's gameplay should be very simple and solid: Stay on the front lines along with attackers dispelling, healing, buffing, shielding, AND casting powerful holy spells in-between so they also get good chunks of exp. But right now you'd just rather hang on a rope.
