I'm lvl 34. I'm determined to master my wizard. I'm getting bored with my veno, even though I still love it.

I've been doing more reading on this. I know it's very difficult and it's normal to, well die or at least get hit with some dmg.

I'd like to take in all suggestions on PURE build only please.

So where do you think my points should be at or about at by lvl 34?

thanks in advance!

    If you don't put anything into Dex or Vit you should probably have:

    154 Magic
    21 Strength

    Lets you wear current level armor and use the current weapon.

    I'd suggest resetting your Dex to 5, and putting it all into Magic, and then adding to magic only until level 43 since you already have enough Strength to use a Wheel of Fate.

    How much of your strength is from +stats?

    the 29 Dex looks a little wierd, leaning more toward a Pure/Crit hybrid build. Even in that build you stop adding Dex once it reaches 20, also Pure build is called Pure because you only add enough str to use your gear and pour the rest into Magic, so no VIT at all.

    At level 34 your BASE stats as a Pure Wizard should be...

    Str:21
    Mag:154
    Dex:5
    Vit:5

    Then add level 35 add 1 point to STR and the rest to MAG.

    Even levels:5MAG
    Odd levels:1STR 4MAG

    That is a Pure build.

    lazerz: all of it is just stats. Only mag has added.

    Okay. I had a feeling I was doing it all wrong. The guides are very confusing. Too many acronyms and PVP stuff.
    I'm not doing any PVP and it's easier in layman's terms. :)

    Witchburner, When I reset all my stuff to that should all my sockets be filled with HP shards only? To make up for the vit?

    Depends on your budget, if your a casual player who doesn't use their money to help them then yes add hp shards(as well as PDef shards, but in PVE hp takes priority).

    If the gear is 1-2 socket add just hp shards.

    3 sockets-add 2hp shards, 1 PDef shard
    4:2 of each

    Also +hp gear is always nice for a wiz.

    Once you reach lvl90+(or just Mega-rich) you can refine your gear to add hp.

    choose your weapon and armoury, set the strength you need for it. then magic all the way. think it can't be any easier. just be aware such pure build is squishy. unless you wish to use HP charms, avoid desperately taking hits.

    To tell you the truth,, The game system hates Mages..
    The following is why:

    1. Hit points suck,, We can take only a few hits an make it out alive..
    2. Range of are spells suck( We have to be close to the monster to even hit it. Which puts us in the monster range.)
    3. Then when you are fighting a monster it always happens to me that one or two just appears behind me and starts attacking.. Your died like always..
    4. You don't get your push back spell until lvl 39 so your screwed on that at the lower lvls when you really need it..
    5. Our spells take to long to fire off so we have to use are best spells at the begin of the battle only then use your gush and fire spell from that point on..

    6. You can not fight alone unless you don't mind being dead 3 or 4 time in a 4 hrs playing time.. thats around 15% of the next lvl...


    I started playing with a group of friends at the same time we wanted a good group to work with in big quest..

    Beastlord lvl 43 now
    Veno lvl 40 now
    Cleric lvl 38
    Mage lvl 31 this is me

    We all play about the same time frame we only play together when killing a game boss are big quest..

    the above players die but not even as many time that a mage die's


    In my view the game has the mage in a unfair point where you have to have others carry you through most of your mission.. If you don't have help you will die many times in your gaming...

    We do great damage one on one with most monster and will win against them its the lag of the game and mult monster appearing next or behind you that sucks very much...

    I will carry on playing the Mage until I get to a high lvl in the game but it still sucks how they treat the Mage class in the game...

    This is just my View of the Game..

    They need to do the following to make it a little Even in the game for the Mage..

    1. Cut are spell time down by half or give us a larger range, this would be the biggest change in the game for the mage and it would help keep most of us in the Mage class.. When I'm watching an Archer just fire away with his arrows sometimes three to four shots to my strongest spell.. Its just sick Plus they get the knock back spell early in the game..

    My Mage built is the following:
    Every lvl up I did the 4 in MP and 1 in Str.. I don't run out of MP in most battles unless I'm fighting one of the Big Quest boss..
    My Armor is the fire armor with + 415 on most everything

    2. Give us the knock back spell earlier in the game.. We have enough problem just trying to stay alive now..

    3. A little more hit points would be nice..

    Well heres what I did.

    AUCTION HOUSE.

    Look for arcane gear of your lvl range with added blue stats of physical defence!!. Get a pys def belt and necklace. Get a HP cape. SHARD your gear for HP. Get a helmet that has added blue stats of pys def and shard it for hp. And if you can afford it plus your armor for more hp. If you do all this you'll have pretty decent hp and pys def with the added damage of a pure build.

    Man i am pure wiz lvl 31 right now and i don't die and i never run...
    Normally i kill monsters bigger lvl then i am before they can get to me.
    Only thing that u need is a good strategy not like hit and run.
    Remember that wizard has strongest magic attack in the game.( if you are pure wiz )
