is it a stat problem or a training problem????

[Stunseed]

Training. Chill out with the HP so early. Cut it to 1.25 or even just 1x. Drop 2 ranks of PF, and that'll open up some points for you.

[Wuxong]

with those free points should i get some more spell rans in the elements and put my wizzard to 20 ?? or do you have a better idea !!

[Stunseed]

I do have a better idea, but you want a "pure wizard", so I'd suggest 3x'ing in spells, 1x AS, MIU, HP, EMC and Pick a Lore to 1x in. 2x in Spell Aim. That's 10 ranks per train of magical ranks, plenty to utilize a runestaff.

[Drew]

I dunno, I'm from the camp that says do more HP early and let it settle back down to 1x as you get older and your mana leech becomes more viable.

[AnticorRifling]

Pure magic wizard.... and then I see battle mage. I'd start with changing that title.

[Askip]

I like Stunseed's suggestions, but I'd wait on Lores unless you have an RP reason, the mechanical benefits are not worth the TPs. You could 2x MUI and/or AS instead if you are using a staff.

:D

**** the earth lore was for an extra STR bonus for when i was doing archery, forgot to dump it. lores ARE ok if you are a crazy wizard type like that anticor guy ****

[AnticorRifling]

F U! But I agree lores are only good if you're training for something odd (like me)

Don't forget! this training plan really works :P not so great on enchanting though
