I know these two are the damage dealing classes, what sets them apart in later levels?

    Wizards get ridiculous the later they get, archers get weaker (compared to other classes.)

    Archers cap off at about 55 and get worse from there, wizards are pretty crappy early and get progressively better.

    So out of Wizard and Archer, and let's throw in Blademasters, which one solos better?


    I need a class that can solo. I know Venomancers are best... but I don't like bugs and won't be taming them at all if I play a veno... so veno's out of the question.

    hate to break it to you, if you want a high damage dealing class go attack cleric.
    here is a forum with a great walkthrough.

    From what I read, the reason clerics pull up top is because of their heal spells. They have time to heal themselves and attack. I didn't find anything to prove they do more damage than a properly made wizard.

    Wiz = high damage, long casting time.
    Cleric = Slightly lower damage, slightly lower casting time.

    Knock yourself out.

    Archers are still top dog until 89, but from then on they balance out and become less powerful. Mage, on the other hand, becomes INSANE at 79 and even crazier at 89. They are a real "investment" class. They suck early, but if you stick with it, you become a major powerhouse.

    Wizards are already pretty good at lvl 30, i'm not saying that they're top dog around that lvl, but they're good.
