    I havent played both but theres a 50 page thread about Psychic vs Wizard, the first 10-20 are the only interesting part although most of it is QQ and stuff like that.

    I dont know of anyone who lvled both, the wizzies I know almost all find psychics boring/crappy and vice versa b:shutup

    wiz: high DD class, pvp is ok besides fist BMs with as much mdef as arcanes but more HP lolwut?
    psy: class that doesnt deal damage directly but through other means. Depends A LOT on luck in pvp. XD
    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

    archer higher dd without fist and fist bm got close range, but highest magic hit/skill is ok to wizz.

    Psy = DPS

    Mage = Spike

    I've played mage to 91 obviously, levelling psy now.


    Psy damage caps at 200% weapon damage + a small add

    Wizzie caps at 300% for just the 39-49 skills(IE, not ultis) and have more damage.

    Therefore, endgame damage potential still goes to wizards.

    That said, psys have a LOT of tricky debuffs and such to give them a PvP edge in 1v1 combat.

    I'd say it really comes down to personal preference, however wizzies and psys are both good in PvP, Wiz excels in group combat and damage potential. Psys excel in single target DPS and 1v1 PvP.

    You're forgetting Black Voodoo and a useful lvl100 skill (compared to **** wiz lvl100 skills) called Stone Smasher. Not to mention Crystal Light (300% weapon damage, lvl79 skill), and Sandball Clash (lvl100 also, similar to Sandstorm in damage and weapon damage).

    Still with Black Voodoo on these hit harder. Yes psychics are squishier but they can hit hard if they want.

    crystal light is a nice skill but the lvl 100 ones arent plausible. Those skills cost like 60mil on my server so your average psychic wont have them.

    So then it comes down to a psy with a credit card and a wiz with a credit card

    i think we all know who wins....

    I have a RL friend I introduced to the game, he started a psychic, and I've helped him alot in his levelling, from what I can tell, as just low level, wizzies and psychics are about the same, damage difference is really moot, but wizzy does slightly more. as you get to higher levels that gap grows inch by inch. in similar gear I did a few hundred to a couple thousand more in damage by level 60.

    as far as advantages.....the psychic has the edge on soloing in lower levels because of white voodoo and their fast-casting heal. I am aware they have a long cool down on that skill, but they have less chance to be interrupted on a crucial, well-timed heal.

    we tend to joke around. a psychic is more like a heavy calibur machinegun, wizzy is more like a ballistic missle.

    60 mil is nothing when we talk endgame +10 refines and stuff.

    nah, not hf. it was 3 spark+frenzy+b.voodoo+(something jonas with 30 attack lv)+lv10 Skill
    Sandburst Blast (**** compared with lv10 skill but 2,2sec casting and 6sec cooldown).

    190k is nice but u made with hf and etc's and the point is senseless make 30k+ dmg because 95% i think got less hp than 30k, but speed a good thing.

    well tbh its not hard to get to 2xks when u triple spark + frenzy,

    and i did 190k+ with myself and HF,


    which means, i can do around 100k without HF,


    i can show u how i did on faw 1v1's 50ks.


    now days its not hard frenzy + new blessing = a +12 wiz that have 50 attk lvl

    ok the situation is i my wizz is in pw ms. the big diff is there not lucky box so no event gear (exclude what i farmed out XD), nolunar from box or lucky token things. a rank 8 could be 6kkk with wedding candy and maybe 3kkk+ with buying 25reps, +12 a weapon is 2,2kkk. from this coming the most of ppl dont got +10 gear and 5aps etc or higher refined weapon than +10 or rank8 (have only 1 rank6 weapon on pvp server and few tt100),highest hp barb got ~21k so i really think on worth to invest to r8 or dont do enough huge advantage (cause when we get token's the more ppl get better gear and more def/hp also);

    atm i use inferno+4 (want save the money to future) and in tw after venos is pt debuff the catapuller i do 14-18k crit [highest was with 3rd spark+frenzy +udine+e.posion+sbids 22k with same but instead frenzy=>spark and bt 28k on unbuffed barb] with udine+frenzy+e.poison+sage bids what a quite good, 12k-14k crit or bm but after bm use mdef sutra just 5-6k crit what is far not enough [without chanting a bit long XD] cause every bm/barb got occult ice and good aviation.

    idk if could be enough a rank8+9-10 for a good bm or better to invest higher refine on more **** weapon :/
