    It is usually said that Psychics are better for 1v1 PvP while Wizards do better in Group PvP/TW. Try out both and see which you preffer.

    Too many repetitive threads, just browse the forum - in short, wizards - one strong nuke then zzzz, Psys - better at everything else. Just read the skills of each class and you'll realize which one is better, if you can't do that - then it doesn't really matter what you're gonna play.

    Only true if you don't have Cloud Eruption, Master Li's Technique, White Teas, sage nuke skills (2 of the 3 have 50% chance of costing only one spark) and single target skills.

    Arcane defense also gives an edge to wizzies when facing melee targets, and more so than SoS, since everyone knows how to fight a psy these days. They good thing with a psy is the spammability of their skills (dps), not the dph. The good thing with a wiz is their dph, not their dps. Wizards also have a physical attack nuke, which is great for one-shotting other arcane classes/marrowed BMs.

    Good thing wizard needs to use a full round of chi doping to be useful again whereas psy hits hard as ever all day long while at the same time having a free genie and pot cooldown to adjust to the situations.

    Far as edge vs melee goes - good thing psys have a skill that grants them 100% immunity to physical attacks, not to mention expel+sage bubble of life combo and not to mention we get shtload of attack and defense levels for free, meaning we can shard our gear any way we want to in order to be more efficient based on what we want to do with our psy. Should I even add a free seal with no internal cooldown as opposed to wizards who have a single seal with a long cooldown?

    A wiz can land a massive hit on you, what a psy does is land several big hits super fast and has that nuking cycle ready much faster - not to mention that pwi is a game of who gets killed faster, rather than who tanks longer, meaning the psy's dps turns into highly efficient dph because of the speed at which targets die - whereas a wizard will land a huge overkill nuke to kill a target and then be useless compared to a psy until he builds up chi again, not to mention the long *** cooldowns compared to a psy which has small cooldowns across the chart.

    I don't need to mention all the psy debuffs, buffs and soulburn which makes wizard's physical attack look silly in comparison of their utility? The only thing wizards are better at is throwing that one big nuke which requires a whole dance show of chaining combos together to maximize its power - if that's your thing, by all means pick wizard, if you want the better class overall in every possible aspect of the game, and the class which also happens to be the most broken end-game class and a predator with no natural enemies - pick psy.

    It goes to the point that people will complain how easy psy gets when you reach endgame gear and yes, while I will agree with those critics, I must say that there is still a lot of room for enjoyment while playing psy, meaning there are still many ways for you to separate yourself from the pack and use brains+skills to play the class to its maximum potential. If you want to be an underdog, pick the wizard but don't say later you weren't warned because I'm saying it now - watching wizards fight psys is sad and pathetic, you really feel bad for the wizards because their only hope is to spark+bt and 1shot you, that is unless you get sealed in the process of doing your combo, stunned, interrupted or the psy simply uses a genie and watches you become useless for the next several minutes until you get all the cooldowns and genie ready to repeat the same futile attempt - it's really sad and I don't mean it in a disrespectful manner, I prefer wizards as a class in rpgs, but in pwi psys are blatantly obvious godlike pvp class.

    I've learned that psychics are very strong overall, more than wizzies, but psychics have LIMITED elements unlike the wizards.. So it's what you find best..b:surrender

    Psys can spam AoEs better yes.
    However the wizard single target nukes are alot stronger. (you think 300% is an awesome nuke, we don't have nukes that go lower)

    Also wizard has WAY better defence while keeping attack power.
    For a psy it's either black vodoo and be able to DD, or white vodoo and be able to take some hits. Wizards just slap on stone shield and do both
