ive decided i want to roll a wizard cuz i always play mage type classes, my question is this, im goin to be pve to 9x be4 i even think bout pvp/tw, so in getting to 9x, shud i put in 20-50 vit, or would ah gear with hp adds be smarter and around 7x or 8x maybe +2 or +3 it. cuz id like to avoid vit points if at all possible, i know if worse comes to worse i can always kite with gush but generally what would be the better way of gettin hp and cost efficient, thanks.

    A wiz at low lvls is always going to be tough. If you are worried about dying too much you can try a light armor wiz but then you will probably want to restat to pure later. I went pure from the beginning. It was tough and I died lots but I'm not regretting it now. Make sure you use your physical defense barrier.

    For hp I would say it's most efficient to get it as adds on gear or use stones in your armor. Adding vit points to a wiz is very inefficient as we only get a few hp points for every vit point we add. (I can't remember the exact number). Once you get up around the 60's you'll be happy you used those points in magic instead.

    Everyone keeps saying how it gets much easier when you get to level 60... Well, it didn't work for me like that.. Mostly because of two factors.

    #1 Swamps b:shocked During swamps I added 20 vit because I was tired of dying so much over and over...

    I was already wondering lol. BH 59 is the easiest thing ever for a wiz. Back in the days I was always tanking the entire BH's (note, we just had water and fire vally for BH back than, and those are abit easyer than say earth).
    Tanking 4 water mag mobs while the barb just died and walking away from it is the best feeling ever (ofc with cleric, but still, once you get 75+ you can use crabmeat and solo them)

    There isn't anything wrong with putting in up to 50 vit. A lot of mages do it, that's an extra 500 hp. 1 vit = 10 hp. This has been a topic hit on a lot, the damage difference is almost negligible in pvp, 200pvp damage I believe. So if you want some extra survivability, go for it. You're not going to totally gimp yourself.
    The doctor will see you now.

    Since no one has really answered your question...
    I believe 50 vit is a PvP thing. If you want to PvE to 90 ignoring pvp and then be pure mag for pvp at 90+ just stick with it from the start. I don't find much use for hp in pve, just play smart and use force of will and phoenix and snare/gush.

    If however you're going to use 50 vit after 90 for PvP then just stick it in now and go level.
