    Watcher of the Skies will trade you a genie of your choice for (I think) 3 mirages.

    Any. All.

    Really, all genies are the same. The only thing that makes them different is their starting stats and how they look. All genies can learn the same skills, so it really doesn't matter which genie you get.

    How you build your genie, however, does matter. Especially if you're aiming for a specific skill.... The Skill List for genies can be an excellent tool in determining how to build your genie.

    I heard Infliction genie is best for wizards because its starting skill help wizard to avoid physical damage. Is that true?

    It's a skill that slows down a hostile target and speeds up your characters, for 5 seconds. So yes, it could help you avoid physical damage.

    If the infliction genie starts out slowing enemies and speeding yourself what do the others do?

    Longevity: Reduces the target's elemental resistance by 30% for 4 seconds.
    Has a 10% chance to remove a beneficial effect from the target.
    Every 5 genie levels, the energy cost is reduced by 1.

    Discipline: Increases your flight speed by 50% for 4.5 seconds.
    Every 2 genie levels, the energy cost is reduced by 1.

    Zeal: Calls a pillar of flame to scorch the target for 5 seconds. Reduces the target's
    attack and defense by 4%, and increase the target's move speed by 3%.
    Every 5 genie levels, the energy cost is reduced by 1.


    I personally use a Zeal genie because the starter skill also pulls mobs one by one, which is very useful.

    By HP do you mean Stamina? You replace that by decomposing armor/weapons, getting chi stones, and using infusing those into your genie.

    The energy replenishes itself as you have the genie out automatically.

    Don't forget the most important thing.

    Your genie has to match your fashion. The last thing you need is for your genie to clash with what you are wearing......
    Too often we loose sight of life's simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown, BUT, it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and slap that mother#$@%#^! upside the head.
