Hey frands.

Does anyone know of a guide that has information about different orb transmutation options ?

I seriously hate the design of most of the orbs I find in game. If I have to have something floating next to me, I feel like it should just be a particle effect, similar to like how a ball of energy might look, or a willow wisp ( lol ).

Tell me I'm not the only one who things the orb of elemental earth looks like a cooked turkey ?

    Look through the first thread "show us your wizard screen shots" is probably the closest thing to what you are looking for.

    Btw, just plain round orbs (I use nightmare) are close to what you describe when enchanted

    You can get a flying book. Or at least you used to be able to. I can't remember where it came from, but I think the bazaar.

    Yup.. my partner got the book for her CW. I got a Graycloak's Orb for mine.. it's a nice, small orb, reminiscent of the remotes on Star Wars.

    I think I'll try the nightmare orb. Right now it looks like I've got a giant floating dream catcher next to me.

    And how come every robe I find is more like a loin cloth ? Very questionable design choices by the devs, but whatever. ( I firmly believe I should have a staff and that ugly orb should be atop it but meh. )

    Speaking of robes, any actual robes anywhere ? Some npc's wear them, so the models have to be somewhere

    Look in the Wondrous Bazaar. They have some proper wizard-y transmutes in there... to include robes and an Elminster-ish hat.

    Pound for pound, though, I think my favorite CW armor is the Guild Gear.

    Pay attention, though.

    Different orbs might induce a different animation for the Daily of Oppressive Force. Most of them simply use the basic animation for the oppressive Force, however depending upon the orb you might see some unique animations whilst casting a daily spell, usually it'll be a super-sized orb shape.

    Animation is surely one of the things to pay heed to when choosing the orb, especially in the combination with the perfect enchantments and above.

    There is an invisible orb in game. The
    orb of Fanewatcher from chasm. Or rather it should look like an eye and it does in gear preview but in game it is invisible. Screw flying rocks true wizards don't need weapons B)

    Does the particle effect from your weapon still show up with the one from chasm ?

    Nope. No matter what it's only visible in gear preview. Actually I didn't pay attention to notice if it's showing in oppressive force animation but all the other powers don't show it
