    Another question, if you're light armor build would you use elemental neck/belts or something else? I seem to be dieing faster and potting more now that I've gone LA. =\

    robe wizard also can have high p.def.. after 89, atm i have lvl 74 and 2,5 p.def with robe , after lvl 89 if you have $ to refine your gear you can get to 8-10p.def and 10k+ m.def.. the only thing is how much real $ you will spend into refine your gear:surrender
    PD: i use elemental ornaments for grind , p.def for pk,tw

    So which is better for PVP, TW, and PVE: LA or full int? I started full int but I think I can pull LA off if need be. ^^
    As the sun sets in the fire-blown sky, the advent of war falls upon us. I will go, fight for my nation, for my people. I will use my magic, to strike from a distance, never backing down. I will go, and bring glory to our kind. Because the time has come for this war to end. We need to band together and defeat the Wraiths. I will help make that happen. For I am a Wizard.

    After reading things it seems like between LA and Pure there really are so few differences that there isn't a "best" build. LA is more balanced and Pure has better pure damage. My highly subjective take: For PvE if you have at least one person to level with, Pure will probably come out ontop, if you're soloing you might consider LA. For PvP its all a matter of trades. LA trades magic damage to be able to survive better against the physical attack classes. It seems like the damage you lose as a LA grows with level, which makes it more attractive earlier but less attractive if you can stick it out as pure.

    Pure int is way better for soloing that LA. You wil simply not get hit before the mob reaches you, making the extra defense you get from LA pointless. Would you rather not get hit, or have more defense, less damage, and have to worry about hp when soloing. I think the answer is pretty obvious.

    As far as ranged mobs, magic mobs, who cares. Dots that tick for 24 dmg is hardly a threat. Archers will probably hit you once if your lazy like me and don't feel like kiting them. Big deal, 1 hit is nothing, I can take at least 3 before my hiero pops, which at that point I just stop to heal myself and then continue the slaughter.

    YOU HAVE ONLY 5 POINTS INTO DEX? So are you using a level 1 bow or something? How much damage are you doing at level 45?

    ^ Wizards don't use bows.

    Well, I use a level 1 bow to **** people off sometimes.. but that doesn't count.
