Pure Training Input

[Drinknation]

Alright with the upcoming fixskills in a couple days I was hoping to get some input from the wizard community in regards to training. What I want is to be an incredible hunter. Incredibly efficient and powerful.

Armor is the thing I'm thrown off by the most. I'll most likely stick to full leather since theres no hindrance until later levels when I fight things that're more CM based(Mostly critters 71+)
This is what my current training and stats(Since I might be picking up a fixstats potion) look like.

Im in the process of cutting down to 0x lores in order to get closer to 3x in spells as Im 1xing in mne & mje and putting the left overs in wiz ranks. Any and all input is greatly appreciated.

Also what do you guys suggest for a pure hunting wise. I prefer things with decent loot but I'll downgrade to poor for a couple levels. Thanks much guys.

Citadel in RR is rich and easy.
Then wyneb until you can get into maaghara.

If you overtrain your 500's by 20 you will have an easier time leeching/immolating in Maaghara while overhunting.

Dropping Arcane Symbols down to 1x or 1.5x wouldn't hurt you much if you needed some extra points for more CS. Every 16 ranks = another spell.

Thanks so much Phantasm. At around what levels do you think would be my best chance to switch over? Currently I'm in Teras and I don't see myself leaving until I'm done with the lower eye. I probably won't leave Teras till I'm 71ish? Which is still a ways away. Here's my updated training path that I did with my fixskills(I have a fixskills pot too incase I need to change things up even more). The only thing that will be changing is I'll be adding 2 more armor ranks to get into some HCP reinforced leather that I purchased.

I'm weighing the option of adding MjE ranks instead of moving up wizard circle to be able to leech but I haven't been running into very many mana issues except when I have rediculous bounties like kill 20 fire mages but even then I have to run back and forth to town to get healed anyways. Thanks for being so helpful.

Actually you need 8 ranks as a wizard for reinforced to train off the maneuver penalty. 6 is just for spell penalty. Expect to add 4 ranks of armor use.

This is my wizard at 94. He wear HCP doubles and uses a shield due to disarm in OTF.

Bolt AS is like 466 with Col signs
MjE CS is like 500

I was going to answer your question about armor with
"Find some HCP+ armor leather breast plate down that you can afford, and then just get the # of armor ranks for the armor you found"

Lol fire mages.

haha well Im on teras so Im stuck doing them from time to time. Honestly I just do bounties here since its incredibly easy. In and out pretty fast. Hell sometimes when I'm at 0 mana and cant leech and go2 to a node to grab a pulse and run back within a few seconds.
