2) I'm afraid I might create a failure, how do I prevent this?

There are common functional builds and abstract builds. The more common builds are the Pure Magic build and the Light Armor build. The more abstract builds are the Hybrid and Balanced builds. As long as most of your stat point distribution goes to Magic, you should not have too much difficulty coping with the game. What you should watch out for is leveling and acquiring skills you don't really need and not have enough points to use later on.


3) Type of Wizard Builds and Point Distribution
Rating System: 1 being lowest, 5 being highest.

Pure Magic build: Attack Rating - 5, Defense Rating - 2
Every Two Levels
Magic 9 Points
Strength 1 Point

Hybrid Build: Attack Rating - 4, Defense Rating - 3
Every Two Levels
Magic 7 Points
Vitality 2 Points
Strength 1 Point

Light Armor Build: Attack Rating - 4, Defense Rating - 4
Every Level
Magic 3 Points
Dexterity 1 Point
Strength 1 Point

Balanced Build: Attack Rating - 2, Defense Rating - 5
Every Level
Magic 2 Points
Vitality 1 Point
Dexterity 1 Point
Strength 1 Point

These are listed in terms of attack power. Each one of these has it's own strengths and weaknesses with its own uses and its own strategies. The further down the list you go, the more strategies become available, but the less damage you can do. It is highly recommended to decide between Pure Magic and Light Armor, but it is still a subjective matter.

Besides that i take agro from barbs 90+ eventualy, easy pve, and decent 1 on 1 pvp.

n any wizzy build is difficult till 90 +, cus thats when we excell over other classes

Yes, always, because, for example, barrage of arrows, with its two spark cost and ends-when-target-dies bug is always superior to dragon's breath which has half the spark cost and can eat through wave after wave of riders or whatever while the archer has to build chi in one-on-one battles mostly too far away to get the drops from.

Personally, I doubt I will ever have the buffed pdef of a pure arcane wizard, nor the damage bursts, nor some of the other perks. I can be useful, yes, sometimes, but not in the same ways that you can.
