magic damage plus 500% of weapon damage plus 13955.0. Has a 95% chance to slow enemies by 60% for 8.0 seconds. Also has a chance to increase your magical critical hit rate.

Requires two Sparks.

Sage version gives a 50% chance to increase magic critical hit rate by 30% for 10 seconds.



So it's all between Psychic's Black Voodoo vs Wizard's higher weapon damage %, higher addon dmg, crit buff, better range, bigger AoE and much shorter cooldown.


Bigger AoE = more targets caught within = more damage per hit

If your rerolling for the sake of getting into squads i'd say your making the wrong decision.

Play a class that YOU like whether or not you are a first choice within squad making.

Don't be a dime 'a dozen, work your class and under stand it cause YOU like it, not because "a squad" likes having you around. once you play your class because you like playing it, you'll get better at it and people will recoqnize your talent + quality within a squad.

but thats just my 2 cents

I could sit here and talk all day about how good each is but in my honest opinion, I'd pick a psychic. Plus from a barbs point of view, the psychic always takes aggro before the wiz.

it's not all in the skill dmg or channel
psys get more mattack points per one magic then wizzies

that should be nerfed imo to same thing as we get and their weapons usually have higher attack then our

but Anima has a point play a class that u like cuz if u wanna get in pts as AA go be a cleric otherwise roll a sin or a BM

cuz honestly most ppl playing now are total Dbags hence why i love when they beg me to go GV then i just lol

Some of players even not know, that Wizards can heal.

I was in squad with few level 100 players in fb59, Assassin level 90+ with 5,5k life (without cleric) , and Assassin was in fear to tank, because he could take agro. All of them were waiting for Venomancer with Hercules to take agro.

Edit:
To be healing by Wizard, tank must tell him to heal, of course.

hmm, in my lvl 70's on my psy, while doing a BH59 i believe, both me and a wizzy duo'ed the instance, both in the same lvl range

i tanked while the wizzy healed me o.o, although when talking about wich class is better, it all depends how much you willing to spend on gear

psychic - spend a lot and its probably the best and most OP end game PvP character (with soulskills)
wizzard - i dont really play this class much so i can't make a solid statement, they just have some really nice skills, with DB and heal

One with a better defense, produces more offense.

Come to west and say that to my face. No, wait...you're too busy trolling forums to do that. If you're not careful, I may catch up to that overpriced Venomancer of yours. You may want to stop flapping your ****, and start grinding your OWN foxwings, before I DO catch up.
(Who hypers foxwings anyway?)
It would be horribly embarrassing if I popped up one day and you were unprepared. There's a reason WHY Psychics are a scary class, and I've been playing mine up to endgame for a very long time.

I tell you what--If you can actually put an SS on Harshland forums with me hyper grinding foxwings, or even CLAIMING that I did, I will quit playing PWI entirely. b:bye Good luck with that. (Because it never happened. Don't tell everybody about YOUR bad grinding techniques.)

OP--> Just don't be like 98% of people who rolled Psychics because they heard it was a good class? I'd go with what Anima said....pick a class because YOU like it, not because some pansy-**** squad won't take you. I would keep playing your Wizard...ijs.

I don't grind Fox wings Glacial Maidens are betterb:bye. Plus I could roll a toon are your sever Power level to 102 1 shot you no problem...But your not exactly worth the time to do that, plus I would not want to hinder your foxwing hyperingb:surrender.

Dont worry ive rolled a pych as well and currently running her threw FF b:laugh, NOw i just gotta look into all there skills and practice on her in pvp the R9 daggs are all right but im looking forward to R9 on my pych

stop rolling psys ppl!
b:angry

Just wanted to point out that my Mystic's Storm Mistress does about 12k+ damage a hit to a ? boss every 2 seconds. And that's not counting my Thickets huge spike damage on bosses either.

High refined Psys may still beat us out, but I just thought I'd through that out there.

Nobody cares about Mystics. Genesis expansion is still irrelevant to the development of this game. Anything besides original + Tideborn expansion is not to be considered.

Best DD in all of game


Venomancer
Demon
5.0 aps
Demon Melee mastery
Herc (Give it the skill that lowers hp/pdef or whatever its called)

Thank you private servers...
Bada bing, Bada boom.

Gorgn00b is right, Mystics aren't worth mentioning. Their damage in PVP is laughable compared to other arcane classes. Any other AA class with equal or even less refines will out DD you. Hell, your trump card, the craglord that does awesome damage lasts 20 seconds and moves slower than a snail. One Holy path and you can literally just stand there and watch it follow you only to disappear when it reaches you. If by then you didn't one shot it.

And the whole 'awesome damage" on [?] bosses makes me chuckle. If you want to make a character, level it to 100, so you can go around being proud of big numbers on [?] mobs, go ahead booboo, no one's going to stop you.
Once you're done, and ready to make a more effective PVP/TW character, focus on choosing between Wizard or Psychic.

My input is simply this, psychics are awesome, they're incredible killing machines.
Wizards are awesome, they're incredible killing machines.

Play both, decide which one you like more, not skill-wise. But either which one you think is prettier, or which one you think appeals to you more. When it comes down to it both of them have their own ups and downs. But honestly, they're both equally feared when geared properly and played by someone who knows what to do :O

Also, Gorg. You still owe me a present.

If the mystic is dumb enough to not control skill their opponent, your point is valid...

Devil Stun, Listless, Gale, Occult, Thicket + chi pot if youre trying to summon after 2 spark burn...but I guess a point from a small observer is irrelevant.

You act as if all servers' populations can adapt so quickly, or are half as "smart"...

We are about combos and people seem to forget that. We don't have "trademark" skills like BIDS, BT, Tempest, Amp, Nix Bleed (not necessarily a skill but mass QQ about it) Purge, Soulburn etc. etc. ANY class when geared properly can be feared. Wizzy and Psy isnt the only thing out there and honestly I like it when people turn their noses down on the newer classes. If they get careless in TW's, get careless in PK then they freak too late that someone skilled is actually playing behind the screen and is suddenly a threat, all the better for those who worked up the skill level.

We can be support (Demon res w/ 100% Hp return, Demon/Sage Salvation with their aoe shields, Fallen petals which stacks with IH and ticks after a few, Healing herbs and plant debuffs) Or we can DD (Nature Vengance + Absorb Soul, Energy Leech Storm for a boost in mag attack, Demon Thicket when amp fires off,) and we can control (Devil Stun,Thicket, Gale, Listless Herb when Lys'd can sleep target for 13 sec-otherwise will constantly have the chance to interrupt, Bramble Tornado demon version will grant an extra knockback meter) We have the ONLY KNOCKBACK THAT WORKS IN PVP. How you dont see that as effective PvP/TW wise I don't even get...

Was gonna go on a rant here but Praxalis beat me to it, well said. ^^

But yeah Just reading all your other posts I can see your level of pvp insight. Nothing else really needs to be said. b:bye
