Clerics can be BOTH one of the game's best healers OR buffers, so I can't really see why the whining.
If you complain you can be only a support class nowadays, look at the so-called "uber" Hibernia : bard, warden and druid are also only viable as support class - almost noone specs any of those classes offensively (though it is possible).
IMHO this is also the reason why Hibernia doesn't really needs buffbots the way Albion does - their existing support classes are already specced as excellent buffers. In Albion the "smite" nerf caused a drastic decline of clerics with most of the smiters (which made out the majority of clerics) abandoning their char, often respeccing as buffbots (about half of the buffbots are former "active" clerics that respecced) to provide buffing.
