I was reading the news about the seeker's w.e they are.. and they were mentioning direct damage for earth and fire. I can only assume this means seekers have a fire tree. If that's the case, I guess genie spark can't be listed as one of the benefits for being a wizard.. as it will no longer be class specific. Obviously there is also the continuous aoe and whatnot.. so that begs the question.. what did we do to **** off the devs (not sure any other class has lost there niche to the extent that we have)? Any ideas would be appretiated.

    I think the dev. run out of ideas, so they started to copy older classes skills. They just put on them pink coat that's all. The worst is, they stared copying the mages. With this new class they will kill wizards totally. Which is really pity.

    So lets see here.. it looks like wizards will lose the last fraction of a strand of usefulness in pve due to seekers coming out. We already get lolraped by sins in world PvP (doesn't every class?) and the last thing we are useful at, TW, was also nerfed.

    LOL @ anyone who rolls a wizard in 2011 and beyond.

    I like it even more when wizzies undine themselves for me to kill. b:chuckle

    Although not as fun as watching stun arrow reflect back and stun archers. . .over and over again.

    You are such a mean mean mean (...) psy b:cry

    Well, I only roll a wiz for fun because I love the class.. Since I do not HAVE to be able to find squads in PVE that does not affect me much.. I still hate those changes tho..

    Heart Burning Sword

    A 20 second debuff. When you attack the enemy with a Fire or Earth skill, the Critical Strike Rate and Damage of that skill will be increased for that attack. Heart Burning Sword, in and of itself, does no damage, but is used to set up your Fire and Earth direct damage skills for the next 20 seconds.


    From what I've seen on Seeker videos this skill is a different status than "Fire/Earth/Water resistance lowered" from Undine Strike. If those two debuffs will stack, it would actually make psychics and (especially) wizards more powerful when in party with seeker.


    Too bad this skill has 3 minutes cooldown :P

    Hard to assume anything right now, I'm too lazy to translate CN forums to find something about this :P


    When Seekers come out in our version I will test it and post the outcome in this topic
