from what i've seen from the stats it seems orc mystics are going towards more magical-path. overlord i'm assuming? i'd say robe because of the clan-wide heals.
the pdef you get is not worth the casting you lose. i'd say heavy+blunt for solo pve and robe+staff for party pve and/or pvp :d
what about wolfs ? are they strong like in previous chronicles? if yes, then go robe, blunt with acu and your wolf pet. mana won`t be a problem, and robe is better for pp/clan activities too. depends on your play style.
main build for ol: a-grade: maj robe+bomt+acu, better in pvp with dc robe s-grade: major+am+acu pvp/pve after 86 i never play ol xp
indeed, take heavy as ol to reduce your max mp (aka the amount of mp you get from herbs) and your cast for oshit-i-need-to-drain moments. and don't ever use soul guard. so pro. heavy is nearly useless before 85. robe + soul guard is at least as good if not better, even for regen phases, even with ss lag.
