For warlock huh..

Cleric;
Pros:
Survivability
Great buffs
Most powerful attack in the game
Holy spell, resistance to status effects
Res
..list goes on ;\

Cons:
Slowish attacks
Slow movement (unless you buy speed drugs)
Excess amount of clerics on each server most of these r bots and suck at clericing(personal opinion) so this point depends on your ability
SP costs

Bard;
Pros:
Fast attacks
Movement speed (110% at 100 cap)
Great party buffs, especially if another bard around
Unique build
Noise to run past all general mobs
Mana cycle / orbit can save you lots of money on MP pots if you solo as a lock this wont be true u r not gonna stop every 16 seconds just for free mana waste of grind time
Blood flower followed by booming chord on a debuffed player is a very effective way to kill someone
save money by not buying speed drugs :p
Less SP intensive this depends purely on skills and bard may cost more sp depending on the skills u take(goto nivlam and think of your skills for a second)

Cons:
Very vulnerable when by yourself
Harder to tank giants (again, by yourself.. but can do it as a warlock I suppose!)
Drawing a blank >_>.


I've played my friends bardlock at 90, it's really, really fun. Either build will be good imo, up to you
