Heavy Tripling Wizard

[Zanagodly]

Tell me what you think of this cat. He's level 30. At the cap he would know 100 wizard, 90 MjE, 74 MnE. I might lower wizard and increase major elemental if he's enchanting fine but he's a utility character that I would like enchanting well.

Good concept, definately be a high caster.

But, with 1.5 harness power, you might have trouble with some of the higher mana spells at a lower age. I'd recommend 2x harness power if you can handle it. Also, I have no clue about lores, but is fire the only one worth training (0.5xing) in?

[Zanagodly]

I wasn't satisfied with the results of training in earth, but I want some advantages with fire based spells. Haven't had a problem with 1.5x harness yet, but he hasn't started using anything higher than 906.

[AnticorRifling]

Looks like a damn good caster. 1.5x HP is plenty.

All I can say is he looks extremely similiar to mine, that is made for enchanting. And mine seems to rock and roll.

Where do you hunt? My wizard is currently trained almost exactly like that at age 29. I could use a bit more mana, but I just make up for it with leech or by wracking.

[Zanagodly]

Ya my guy wracks and fries with ease. Been hunting the Jungle in RR and hunts hooded figures.

[Stunseed]

Matches my Wizard pretty closely as well. If you can dodge Elder Tree Spirits in IceMule, Farmhands are cake with 908.

No idea where Zanagodly hunts, but I hunt Hunter Trolls and Tegu in the nations.

Edited to add, if I get bored there, I will run around Wraithenmist.

Looks like there s a nice wide selection of areas to choose from there. While I had my wizard in Mule, he would hunt farmhands as well, course in Mule you also have the skeletal ice trolls, or if you don't like that, you can go through the gate to mants and frost giants and guardians.

You're not a wizard until you can do this:

[Roll result: -954 (open d100: 52) Penalties: 0]
You swing your black naginata at Blades's rolaren kris only for the blow to deflect harmlessly off of the kris and smack you in the shin!
..3 points of damage!
Roundtime: 8 sec.

[FinisWolf]

LMAO

That woulda been funnier then hell to see.

Finiswolf

[Volstock]

yes your not a wizard until you get a kris smack into your shin while trying to be a warrior

[AnticorRifling]

My naginata hit me, and warriors wish they were this fast swinging a weapon.

[Fengus]

Yeah, that fast with their abilities, no one wants to be a 1x weapon trained *fast* war mage, that it other than misguided wizards.

Level 50 warrior

200 from weapon skill
50 from cm
25 from strength
20 from enchant
35 from col

total 330

swing every 5 seconds

War mage

150 from weapon skill
25 from cm
25 from strength
15 from strength spell
37 from 425
20 from weapon enchant
5 from earth lore
35 from col

312

swings every 2 seconds

Yeah, took the same bonus of strength and weapon. You get the picture, those are only "normal" ones.

War mage rock!

[Zanagodly]

warrior is also with plate and 40-50% redux and a lot more dodge so they can actually survive areas like the rift and OTF

[AnticorRifling]

Haters.

I still like the look of that pure, if I was ever going to do a wizard as a pure I'd do something dangerously close to the one you posted Mike.

And 312 is about right, at lvl 51 I swing at 333 but that's with 8x naginata so 313 with 4x.

Before they nerfed bows I did the mage archer for a bit, was in fire golems tearing it up with a 3 or so second aimed longbow attack, AND I still had my bolts. It was fun, but I felt like it was a lot more work than just casting, and I had to carry all those dumb arrows around with me (that and I had to give up picking boxes and disarming boxes, which I really enjoy).

Now if I'd had an elemental bow... lookout!

This is my current plan. Can pick -660 boxes, disarm manually -260 traps, ds is 409 I think in offensive with signs, and AS is 380 or so with signs.
