CAreful about balance, it's a trap most of the time in regard to race if you minmax wrongly.
Having a well balanced race with stats you don't care is not a good choice.
i.e.
The 15 dex difference from a human to a halfing is NOT just 15 AS. The 15 DEX is also a phantom crit weight that is added with a certain formula.
People pays HUGE amount of money to increase their AS for little numbers.
Assuming wizards got 2 key stats: DEX (bolt AS) and AURA (CS). Don't neglect CS as a wizard, you will need it for leach at the BARE minimum.
DE are the BEST mechanical race cause they get + 10 in both. BIG drawback is their racial penalty to selling stuff, in nelemar, it's a HUGE 25% worst. EURK
HAlfing are the BEST bolters with their +15 DEX. They get -5 un AURA. See here the choice? Another good point for halfing is their natural TD bonus. VERY HELPFUL. + 5 logic = 1 exp more per minute = pill up = good stuff.
B Gnome are somewhat good: + 10 DEX, + 5 aura. Their HUGE bonus is their + 10 logic making your wiz absorbing 2 exp, in average, per minute more than the others. That's not neglecting matter here.
Sylvain are kinda B gnome with no logic bonus. Bleh
You wanna go physical? Giant or Dwarf.
You wanna ranged? same as bolters.
Don't go average, you will hate your wiz. Go minmax, you will ADORE your max. OPiness = fun. Average = bleh
Society:
CoL is gs3 stuff. If you still decide to go there, know that wracking hurts your BOLT AS. Therefore, CoL is meh for wizards unless you CS (oh, see DE's advantages here over halfling?)
Sunfist and voln got no spirit problems. Sunfist stacks with his padding to 520. Sunfist mages are OP!
And post train 40, wizard leaches well so you'll have no mana issue if you minmaxed it like a prob
