I may have oversold the "priests are terrible at worshiping gods" thing, but on the other hand my experience with newbies is that tryign to melee stuff with the fighter and trying to worship gods with the Priest are the top two things most likely to drive someone away from the game when it comes to stuff you can actually write up on the wiki.
