Like most wizards here I look at Emberstorm description and wonder how much would a wizzy hit with full +12 HA, citrine gem sharding and 90+ strength genie for tree of protection.

BOOM! b:shocked

    I only have ~9.3k hp atm (unbuff) but I'll mess around with a full charged emberstorm at west.. hits anywhere from like 2k to 20k crits depending on the target for me. I'd imagine the wiz you're mentioning would wreck shet up. Would be epic with ice prison too, hold em in place while you're charging + 30% amp :D

    Here is my attempt at building your terrorist wiz:

    http://www.pwcalc.com/6fe55b9d3569c7cc

    I assume rerolling the lionheart armor for HP and average stats for everything else. It would take a LOT of rerolling just to be able to reset enough points to be able to carry a G16 magic weapon (in my example +350 hp * 3, which is highly unlikely) and reroll it for HP adds.

    You may look at that and think OH MY GOD that will do so much damage. In reality it would do about 6k damage to an APS geared LA class. Might hit an R8 HA class in the 10k range, but you will be ineffective at anything else. Overall the build would be very tanky but not able to deal a lot of damage.

    hits about same as dpyro at endgame selfbuffed. But the only time u'll be able to fully charge it is if you sleep the opponent or immune yourself. or maybe ice prison. Cit gems are not practical and you'd barely gain 15% damage from full cit gem. Assuming still using josds, 30k hp with TOP would hit twice full AA dpyro damage. It would be a decent bypass move I suppose if you don't have sparks for sultra. Could probably hit 100k crit or so on fully wiz debuffed person with not much def lvls.

    ToP at lvl10 boosts max HP by 30%
    To every 2 strength points on genie HP boosts by +1%

    In other words, a genie with 90 strength (and that's quite easy to achieve with proper genie gear) should boost max HP by 30+45% for 5+1 seconds, according to description.

    So assuming the Wizard has 20K HP unbuffed the final damage should be 145K, right?

    Now say the Wizard has 24K HP unbuffed and has a genie with 100 strength. My math leads to 177.8K damage, non-critical.

    ...or maybe I got something wrong lol

    Factor in mdef/def lvl and debuffs on target and your target being dumb enough to stand there and let you full charge

    The maximum hp realistically achievable would be around 22k HP with no buffs (30k with sage barb buff). Assume ToP gives you 80% increase to max HP (based on base HP, so another 17,600 hp) and you have about 47,500 hp. 60% of that used by emberstorm is 28,500 hp spent. 4 damage per hp is 114,000. Add the 5000 fixed damage and you get 119,000 base damage, or 28,500 after the 75% PvP reduction. Assume 5,500 fire defense (low gear HA or APS builds) on your target an that is reduced to 12,000.

    In reality it would hit like a RRR9 ultimate spell, but cost no chi. Problem is the build would nerf everything else you do. Also you would need a way of getting yourself into the middle of a bunch of enemies without losing all your HP before the spell channels. (Maybe alacrity from an archer followed by IG.)

    Finally, rather than name this wizard "jihad" I think a more appropriate name would be LEROY JENKINS.

    You know, I was going to argue that LEROY JENKINS is A) probably already in use and B) super-unoriginal, but then I realised that the alternative, i.e: naming it after various terrorist groups or whatever would be highly offensive to many people, not to mention it would probably get the player on an Interpol watchlist.

    ... but then again, this is PWI, who cares about offending people? Still, best to avoid that Interpol watchlist, so maybe the best name would be HotHuggerz!

    Follows most of your terrorist build while trying to maintain some sort of matk. emberstorm would hit like a mac truck and your pyro/gush would be on par with a +10 r9 wizard :D

    Yeah good luck getting that tome. It costs about as much as getting r9 on 2-3 characters on my server. b:cry but it does give you 90 magic (45 more str to reset+45 magic) so you can equip the rank weapon.

    You can also get tons of points from engraving on rings and necklace.
