    Ursa and Elanya quit i believe.

    Chillum, Amounet, and one other wiz recently went sage.

    There is a lot of new ones.
    Sins are Scissors. Psychics are Rocks.
    Archers, Venos, Barbs, Wizards, BMs, Mystics, Seekers are Paper.
    ...and Clerics are Mushrooms.
    Paper beats Rock. Scissors beats Paper. Scissors also happens to beat Rock...until Rock gets 50k+ soulforce at which point Rock becomes an unstoppable killing machine that beats Paper... and would beat Scissors but it can't find Scissors, because Scissors are invisible.
    So Scissors beat Paper and avoids Rock, and that is called BALANCE. -cheze

    Speak for yourself.

    As I've said before, there are only 2 reasons you go pure magic.

    1. You like to die.
    2. You have uber gear.

    And FFS, demon DOES NOT chant faster, disregarding their spark. You realize that sage has -channeling on some of their skills too, right?
    ●Wizard (Male) - Fasditious and pretentious, carries the arrogance of intellectual superiority. Feels the need to remind everyone of his world-ending power, but grows a little manic and unhinged when he finally is allowed to unleash it. "Ahh-hahahahaha!! NOW YOU ALL BURN!!!!"

    sage have less -chan skill and got -ressist/+vigor, so demon got more speed from spark,buff, more skill with -channeling.

    i am pure mag and withou uber gear, i like it indifferent i am 1 hit sometimes but i love the pure way with dd's (like pure dex archer, pure mag wizz etc)

    im pure mag and my gear is far from uber.


    In TW, i was tanking 5 BMs, they were stupid Bms who didnt bother to stun me while i had dragons breath up, but nevertheless, i didnt die. Even with a veno and an 9x archer hitting me, it took a while for me to drop.

    I've been sage for about a week and a half now and my inital thoughts put simply: I really like it.

    Before I plumped for Sage I have to say I was to-ing and fro-ing between Sage and Demon.

    Master Li's Technique makes such a big difference. I think for me that was the tipping point. Before I heard about it I thought Sage Pyrogram was the only Chi building skill and when I heard that it only had a 20% chance of generating extra chi, I wasn't particularly impressed.

    Now that I have Sage Pyrogram, if that was the only chi building skill I had, I would definetly be unimpressed. The chance of the extra chi seems, to me, to be lower than 20%.

    The extra chi and the 20% MP regen seems to me to be off set by the higher MP cost of Sage skills.

    The increased damage however is very very nice though. Sage Pyro is hitting same to more than L10 Divine Pyrogram.

    The next L89 sage skill I want is Divine Pyrogram as combined with increased damage and reduction of fire resistance of target, makes the rest of my fire skills a lot more potent.

    As much as I like Sage, I think I would have been equally happy with Demon. Both have their strengths and weaknesses. Once you choose one, embrace it's qualities and make the most of them in your play.

    sage pyro is pretty much like demon stone rain. If it happens, YAY! If it doesnt, FUUUUUUUUUU SAGE PYRO!!!!!!(i been known to yell that in faction chat).

    I just go with the flow and not really worry about it, but sage pyro is nice in TW when you are hitting cata barbs and building chi b:chuckle

    actually this works well if you do

    pyro > d pyro > pyro > dpyro

    same exact effect but a bit slower, but if you have sage dpyro= b:dirtyultimate afk DDing!
