What makes a Wizard so great?

The fact that even though we've been hilariously screwed with since Raging Tides, we continue to find ways to make it happen. It's the people behind the Wizard that make them shine.

Keep hitting hard wizards of PWI.

    To be honest, our class is ****. I will probably quit the game after having my R9+12 josd wiz on RT and good maxed S cards.

    Sadly to say ... ****!

    Wiz is not a good class anymore. Wiz is a joke. A PATHETIC PIECE OF GARBAGE CLASS! and will be even a bigger piece of garbage when they put defense passives to level 10.

    Better reroll a sin for free win!

    Honestly, though of us who still play wizzies are a little odd. We know how underpowered we are now, yet still hold on to hope that one day we will be returned as the OP class of the game again. It ain't gonna happen. I should have rolled a psy instead, they are beasts. Or mystics.

    I still find playing a wizard lots of fun, everytime i killed equal or better geared people i think: and my class is screwed, and i still pawned you!
    It takes more skill to play a wizard than a psychic or seeker or sin for sure, we dont rely on crit zerks and our debuffs are bad now, but still is nice to be all tankish to these OP class kite them forever and make them feel that they at least need to work to get the kill

    And who knows, maybe someday wiz will get a hax skill to balance us a bit XD

    i dont kite too much vs sin, because dead so fast from egually geared sins who know their class but with casters can kite yes, killing them is way more difficult because they also got mostly better support skill and with 3rd weapon hard to lock them for example dont spam falling petal and other selff buff and even theat in nw they are all buffed so our debuff kinda close useless etc

    wizard class is the worst 1v1. They use to be decent in group pk, or at the very least tw, but sadly even in group pk wizards are now the weakest.

    Among the robes i'd say wizards have the lowest survivalbility end game of course.
    We use to be the hardest hitters but eh, now i believe we are the lowest DPS and DPH among all robes now.

    Think it is official, the wizard is the worst class now. Thanks pwi for ruining a fun class.b:sad

    I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm at my best when playing my wizard. He was my first character and still my favorite. Having played every character to late game except veno and mystic I still like my wizard best. Almost all the omg wtf how did you do that comments have been me on wizard playing my *** off, because we have too.

    Devs need to realize that we've not only invested time, but substantial amounts of money playing this class, and deserve as much love as the others. If they are intentionally trying to create an underdog, they've succeeded.

    Doesn't matter, I'm a wizard, I'm not rolling over just because the devs lack vision and apparently a ****ing calculator.

    this what i suggested on suggestion box, but dont was exclude hotx any wizzard who also commented and we look like qq'ers there

    my suggestion was make from udine something flat amplify (like soul shatter example what increase with % the dmg and not decrease defence by x% like udine)

    the only thing that can save wizards is being able to carry modern weaponry. get me a bazooka and i'm golden. I can see it now, taking 30 seconds to charge up a one shot on a sin, only to see

    Wizard spells don't scale from mag as much as psys and mystics, it really should be the other way around but, meh.
