    At the top of the wizard forums, are a few various wizard guides. Look through those to answer about 99% of the basic wizard build/skill emphasis questions you may have.

    For your original ? though, the short answer is, put 1 into str and 4 into mag on even levels, and 5 into mag on odd.

    For a wizard, you should put 4 Magic/1 Strength per level up to level 54, once you have 54 Strength in total, put the rest into magic from there on. This will make you hit really hard, but will make you squishy, so I suggest you to have Physical defence ornaments and Garnet shards in your gear and Refine your gear for HP. Good luckb:pleased

    what's the point of having ~25 extra str points on lvl54? it will only nerf your damage while not offering any (significant) defenses; at those early levels 25 points could be the difference between 3 and 4 hits (and therefore getting hit or needing to kite). looks like a lazy build...

    i have 40 base str now...
    so the "bla stat points /lvl" is invalid ;O
    nothing more than a guideline for lazy ppl



    hmm let me think on how many stat resets i had....
    something like this:

    ...first time 9x getting less vit
    next time 9x getting less str
    somewhere after 100 less str+more vit
    somewhere after 101 less str+ vit to minimum
    102 restat to light armor and 5 aps claw wizard build (i claim to be the frist 5 aps wizard unless somebody can prove me wrong)
    - 1 week later restat to pure again


    yeah about 6 resets

    Unless 1.54aps counts, yes hex, you're the first aps wizard. b:laugh

    And secondly, never shard garnets endgame, the protection ornaments you'll equip will grant enough physical defense as it is. Stone barrier will take care of the rest. Sharding garnets is for clerics, not us. Always shard citrines.

    He said 5aps. :x

    I kinda agree with your comment on shards, but only for like people with +10 ornaments. Until then I would shard garnets in armor pieces and citrines in hat and cape. Even after, I would refer to asterelle's sockect calc before making any changes. Not sure about other servers, but I can count the number of casters I fight in a day on one hand.

    Guess it doesn't really matter much though since the op is only interested in PvE.
