wizard in pve

swiiftshadow

How useless are wizards really in pvp? my wiz is currently lvl 53 and i am getting closer to dungeon like things where u need a party. Are wizards neglected from partys, or is it possible for a wizard to get into 1 with out waiting 1-6 hours before someone invites you.

Dont get me wrong, i coulnt care less about pve, but everyone have to go through that torture before hitting 100 to start making endgame equipment for senceless murdering.

But soloing to that level will be torture beond hell to me!

I think you mean, "how useless are wizards really in pve?"

and to answer your question, it won't be too hard to level.

Getting a bh squad is easy enough. Just do your dailies to get to level 80.

Once you're 80, finding FCs isn't too hard. FC squads need an aoe DD, and your dragon's breath skill will make you pretty valuable. The only hard part about FC is finding a barb...

I spend probably less than an hour a day on my Wiz, yet it receives recruit attempts ~1x a day for a PvP purpose.

We pwn in Rebirth, and Warsong Metal, Fire. All classes have something they excel at.

Well pve is fun if you enjoy it, but what is the reason to pve? profit or $ .
Would you pve if u dont gain $? Life of a wizard in pve is hard. I recommend you to play a different class if you planning to profit.

Well a wizard on pve isn't that hard. b:surrender Except if the party want a 5 aps.

People think Wiz life in PvE is bad? Try being a Barb in Rebirth, a Cleric in FFC, an Assassin in Warsong, a pure mag Veno in TT 3-X. Nirvana isn't the only thing in PWI to do. I'm not even sure a Wizard is bad for Nirvana; it's just not as stupid simple as the aps route.

Wizards are a great class (my old main was a wizard) and they are useful in nearly every scenario. Highest single target DPH, one shots others in pvp, Great AoEs. Sometimes I miss my wizzy.

And for the record, Nirvana is easily doable with a low aps squad. I did my first nirvana the other day with a squad consisting of: 2 wizards, Cleric, Barb, Normalish aps sin and myself (Archer). Its just bosses, and like the bosses in all other dungeons, aps is barely an issue since PvE is **** easy. Killed the boss slightly faster? Grats lol, was easy anyways. Aps is just a reason for people with no skill/lots of coin to claim greatness. I mean sure afk killing bosses is great, but its nothing in TW where the opposite is true (Archers, Wiz, Psys and Venos shine in TW)

Note: I still build all my end game squads (FC, BH, Nirvy) generally like my pre-FC squads aka 2-3 casters (Yes, I count archer as a caster lols), 2-3 phys (one being a REAL barb if available) and a cleric/mystic.

tl;dr Wizzies own. Nonaps Nirvy ftw. b:victory

Woah, let's not get carried away and start saying wizards are okay in Nirvana.

I'm fairly certain, not 100%, but pretty sure that my attacks actually restore the bosses hp instead of lowering it. That's how bad we are in Nirvana.
