    You're a bit low in the levels to be thinking about that. You're the "pure magic" build. The veno form of the wizard glass cannon.

    PvP/PvE - go Demon, it works well in both PvP and PvE.

    PvE - go Sage, it's mostly support anyway.

    However, do look at the skills you use the most (i.e. Venomous Scarab, Ironwood Scarab, etc.). Compare the advantages you get from Sage/Demon for those skills then pick based off of them. Don't go one way or the other based off of whether or not you are going to PvP. That would be the lamest excuse to ever use.

    You may also want to consider prices / rarity of skill books.

    this is also a pretty poor reason to choose demon/sage. its like going sage archer because the skills are cheap as dirt (sage sucks though on archers.)

    sage is the more well rounded of the two, and i can list an infinite number of reasons why, but youre way too low to be considering demon/sage to begin with :P.

    advice to fledgling archers:
    Going sage is like drunken sex, at first she may look good, but when you wake up the next morning; you'll look at her and go WHAT HAVE I DONE.

    To put it simply:

    Demon:

    PvE: ▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐
    PvP: ▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐

    Sage:

    PvE: ▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐
    PvP: ▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐▐

    That doesn't explain anything. Very nice that you put a visual to it.

    tweakz, with the current event, it's pretty easy to get books. I get reminded of that very often. (WTB Demon Lending Hand please!) I'll get some tokens and try my luck with that.

    Its been explained about a million times in other threads. We have a new demon/sage thread each week. No explanation here is required.

    That is pretty much exactly how both versions compare.

    sage take aim = 100k, demon take aim = ~1-2m, sage bow mastery 10-12m, demon bow mastery 16-20m.

    its like that for the more popular of each class on sanctuary.

    I got Demon Amp for 14m from the AH. Demon Wood and Melee Masteries I got for free from a friend. Along with Demon Leech. I got lucky with my friend as he got them from one of his friends. b:heart
