chiikk0

Hey, i just want a little info . Now i will read the guides for better stats and skills details on a certain type of Wizard . but i just want a little opinion of my fellow players on which kind of WIZARD is best for PVE.

I Have a lvl50 AXE BM and Satisfied with it. Now i want to try a new char and Wizard caught my attention.

1. What type of Wizard is best for PVE? and Why? please answer the why part because i want to learn not just copy.

2. What Skills are a MUST to max with PVE?

Thanks in Advance.

For PvE, in my opinion, the best build is full MAG, but depending on your playing style Light Armor could be better (There are some people that don't bother kitting the monsters, so they get hitted a lot). I've been playing full MAG till my actual level since I started (I've tried VIT/MAG and Light Armor on PvE also) and from all the builds, it seems to be the best one for PvE. But you have to play it in a way to avoid getting hitted much. The extra damage from this build is not that great, and if you are thinking on PvPing later, you are a 2-3 shoots to almost every other class.
So it depends on how you are thinking on playing your Wizard.

If you are thinking on getting hit by the monsters, go Light Armor.
If you are going to avoid getting damaged all you can, go full MAG.
(Don't use VIT build, it doesn't worth it. Wizard's HP modifier is to low.)

Max the first 3 basic skills (Gush, Pyrogram and Stone Rain), you are going to be using these untill end game. Distance Shrink is good to avoid getting hit (But don't max it because if you do, you will be out of range after doing it), Will of Phoenix is nice for this too. Later when you get Sandstorm it's gonna be your first skill on every monster (one of the strongest skills), so you want this maxed.

I think I'm forgetting something, but I don't know what. Mmmm... Well, that's all for now. :P

streaker

Gush
Pyrogram
Stone Rain
Sandstorm
Barrier (earth, pref)
All max.
Level 3-5 Dragon's Breath. (3 for full mag, 5 for LA)

Other skills can be upped whenever you want.
