I couldnt help but notice that well wizards really really seem to hate me and other Psychics and was wondering, just what did we do to **** them off?

    Because supposedly Psychic >/= Wizard and they feel like they are being replaced or simply have a new type of rival to hate on. That they aren't unique anymore and a being overpowered or something. I don't know. Its silly. I have a wizard and a psychic. It doesn't make any sense to me. I'm fine with any and all classes. b:sweat

    Man that is dumb and silly.

    Honestly I think Psychics and Wizards should be able to get along since im pretty sure the two could be quite a force when working together. But hell what do I know im still very noobish

    It's probably becuase as close as everyone can tell right, Psy's have close to the power that wizard's have (very rough estimate here). But without the disadvantage that wizards have (huge channeling time). Plus, they get many debuffs/buffs that wizards don't get.

    Also, the heal the psy's receive is much better for soloing than a wizard. The psy's "IH" allows them to cast real quick and continue to deal damage while healing overtime. Whereas a wiz has to channel for 4 seconds to heal himself (which is not easy to do in the heat of battle, especially if interrupted x.x)

    Again, the before mention buffs help very much soloing, reflect damage, damage amplifier (because they really need that >.>), defense amplifier, and stuns/or debuffs reflect upon taking damage. Where as the buffs a wizard receive are, ele/p def shields (at the lower lvls 100% of crappy p def is still crappy p def), a semi-useless attack buff for squad members, and a mana pool buff (which i admit i loooove.)

    Whoever says psychics are the same as wizards obviously don't have ANY idea on the mechanics of both classes, and what purpose they're "meant" to serve. Ive had a lvl 50 wiz, and now a 83 psychic, and i can definitely say they're nothing like eachother.

    o don't mind me...
    me don't hate psys...actually me see them as a nice addition to have in PvP where our undine will help boost their attack dmg as well.

    me just happen to dislike the numerous humans of less than average human intelligence in the psychic section posting out nonsense.

    I've noticed the same thing. Every person on the forums so far that has a major issue with psy has a wizard. Silly thing is there is nothing for them to be upset about. A psy wiz combo in rb and fcc is insane dd. Also they can't replace one another in a squad do to their unique class skills.

    psychic deal more dmg then wizard if no crit
    they deal dmg really much faster then wizard
    they can heal or make heal stronger
    they can aoe slow,seal,stun,bleed,minus accuracy really fast
    they have increase dmg


    im sure psychic will be able to replace mage in GV and it was the only place where mage was welcome


    **psychic life look like easyer then mage life
    genesis (r.i.p.) ===> conqueror (r.i.p.) ===> zen (r.i.p.) ===> iam (r.i.p.) ===> guardianz (r.i.p.) ===> spectral ===> essence
    starting to be a nice guild hoppers b:surrender

    Yup. and I've have pulled Mobs from DB and Barrage with those same aoes. Strange thing is people are still not willing to try certain subs. A few of the normal gamma squads won't sub psy for archer / veno let alone wiz. Heck most people that do ask first, 'Does a psy have a constant dmg aoe like db?' Ermm no.. 'If not then you are useless to me in gamma.' lol I haven't tried a wiz sub yet, but seeing as that I don't have to be stationary to deal my damage and I can status them, it may be worth a try or two just to see what can be done. I don't see people complaining much about duo archer or wiz, but introduce a psy and heads start spinning. They will see in time as the Tides flood in. ;) There was a reason why on opening day, All the major cities were ghost towns. Ignorance can't hold the Tides from TT/RB/FCC squads for long.

    Hehe.. with that said time for a snack.
    b:bye

    That's odd because the way I see it is that pyshcics are actually helping wizards when it comes to PvP. People will be changing their charecter to protect from pyshic attacks (which don't use elements) while they will be more vulnurable to wizard attacksb:laugh

    Ummm... psychic attack deal earth and water damage.... if you read the background story on the tideborns, their spells are actually an offshoot of wizards' spells.

    So no... they don't deal different damage.

    psychic and mage elemental damage is the same earth/water
    the other psychic skill is soulforce the only way to really protect against it look like +defence only
