    LA wiz is disadvantaged against arcane wizards due to lower dmg and lower magic resistance but gain survivability against archers and melee classes.

    You didn't read my pre-empt response in that post you quoted did you?
    Sure, the comparison between me and other LA wizzies was unfair, but the other comparisons were already analyzed.

    Alimion (LA wiz) and I (arcane wiz) can both take down archers and melee classes with the same level of ease, just using different strategies. If you read our convo in this post, you'll understand. However, it takes more skill to use Ali's strat than mine, so I've had more success in duels compared to the average LA wiz (the reason being that most wizzies just go for the quick kill, like my strat does --- expanding on this point: arcane serves this purpose better than LA). To actually try to survive as a wizzie (Ali's strat) long enough to survive a combo and making sure when to use which skill takes a lot more practice because the combo's aren't set in stone, unlike mine (most of the time, or with a slight variation). Last note - Ali's armor helps him survive, but he reaps the benefits of it by tailoring his strat to suit his armor (which as I've said, is not the average wiz).

    I suggest you re-read my post without blindly quoting too and actually try to understand the points I'm making before responding w/ a generic statement that ignores all the analysis I've done.
    On the other hand, it's true - I have an advantage over magic-dealing classes since I wear arcane armor - goes without saying.

    Wizzy at high level 100+ can easily own all classes. Everything just depend on tactic. That's the most difficult thing to find proper tactic for every class. But with expel is it MUCH easier in PvP.
