Wizards

It seems to me that most of the people on the forums are either complaining about wizards and their damage or how they are unbalanced. I'm getting more and more discouraged and I really feel like quitting my wizard and making something else before I spend too much time on my wizard. Should I?

With that attitude probably. If you do not believe your class will be any good you will continually see the faults of the class, and never how awesome you are. I have played veno, BM, and wiz, and of those three wiz is by far my favorite, not only because I love showing people how things they think suck don't, but because it is actually a challenge sometimes. I could never play another class again, simply because to me they are too boring.

Just keep in mind one thing: People are stupid. Alot of those people who say wizards suck either don't have enough skill, or have had bad experiances with other idiots, thus making them think their class sucks. Don't buy into the propaganda, make your own decisions. If by say lvl 39 you think wizards suck, reroll another class, it doesn't really take long to get to 39, and you really don't have to buy any cash shop stuff to make it work.

I have issues with repeating myself...so...

Please read.

yes, i think (just my think) wizard difficult to play and suck.
one of my friend said to me i m a fail wizard cause i don't know how to control my class. yes, may be he is right.
may be wizard doesn't suck.
and i started some wizard suck thread.
to be honest i have a cleric lvl 12 but i like the wizard class more.
playing cleric is kinda boring for me.
that's why i got that lvl so far with wizard class b:victory
there is no way to play any other class for me but wizard.
i got two shorted yesterday when i chenneling my Black dragon in a duel, i still love that skill(beautiful spell , he he)b:dirty
lol, i don't know why i love to play wizard even i think it's suck.b:chuckle

wizards get alot better once thet get thier tt60 wepon =D

Hey, don't by any means believe wizards are underpowered simply because of a few words. Sure, I've said a lot about how BMs are difficult for a wizard to fight, but I've focused on 1 on 1 fights.
Wizards do NOT excel in 1 on 1 fights.
But, this will definitely make you feel better:

We are absolutely awesome in group pvp, and territory wars.

I'm mainly playing Wizard because I'm always partial to spell-casting classes. I'm not for melee or archer types. The important thing is that you enjoy playing your character, don't let what others say get you down.

I've questioned my class choice more than once before, but I stuck to it, and at the moment I'm loving this class, and I don't see myself ever playing any other class. In my opinion, if you invest in good equipment AND love slinging spells, this class rocks.

Wizards ftw!~

Hope this helps you.

ya i back up ursa
in TW wizards own!
guess who just got his ultimate spells b:victory

whatever people say, the wizards are all around good group of casters. i have a friend who completed her fb19 thx to me and a friend. and she loves the class, i showed her this sight and some vids, and right off the bat she chose the wiz's, and she loves the class. and so do i, i love the array of elements u can cast, wiz's are unique in this game, wiz's cast earth, water, fire; venos mainly cast wood, becuase even a fire move adds wood dmg, then they cast fire and water; cleric even though i love them only use metal attacks. but wiz's rule at taking down lots of element mobs, and have wider arrange of mobs to grind on

Wizards = Cannons
High Fire Power
But low survivability
A cannon is only as good as the person operating it.

So far I have played every class except Archer, and Wizard is by far my favorite. Each class has its own strengths and weaknesses. For wizard, our weakness is low HP bar. But guess what? Archer and Cleric share this weakness with us, and we have the extra defense of Stone Barrier, which gives us a lovely, long Physical Defense boost (Especially for Light Armor Wizards ). People also complain about the long cast time, but from playing other classes, I end up missing my Wizard skills. The cooldown times and lack of MP regen for the melee classes can get painful for me. I can flow through my Wizard skillset easily, I can move fluidly from one attack to the next, then back to the beginning again without stop. But I don't need too because one sweep through and the mob is usually dead XD On my melee class characters, I reach the end of the skills and I'm still waiting for the cooldown time to finish on the first one. So I have to just do a regular attack It's annoying and inefficient, two to three sweeps through the full skillset is required to kill things with my Barb and BM ;_;

What I've found really odd is that I rarely need to use HP pots on my wizard. I don't need to use MP pots either. But my Barbarian eats up MP pots like he's starving. Yes, I can go full tilt against the mobs with my barbarian and not have to worry. When i have to pace myself with him, it's to conserve his MP bar, not out of concern for his life. I don't have to pace my wizard at all. I can just grind at a steady pace. And kill things in fewer attacks than ANY of my other characters.

My experience:
Wizard kills fastest PvE out of all classes I've tried, about even with Venomancer.
Wizard has more skill options which = more fun and customizeability.
Wizard lets you worry less about MP drain.
Wizard doesn't need to worry about HP drain with LA and Life Powder.

So I ask you. If I kill most things easily, rarely get hurt worth noticing, and have some of the lowest repair & pot costs in the game.... how is my class underpowered? Plus it is FUNNNN.

The only drawback is in PvP when a higher level sneaks up on me and gets some shots in. But it's more my own fault when I die than the fact I'm a wizard - I need to improve my evasive and retaliatory skills. And in TW PvP I'll have a vital role.
