Creating Wizard for Strictly Porting
 

Fellow Norrathians,

I am contemplating creating a Dark Elf Wizard to join Dial-A-Port and try to get high enough to make money porting. Is this a viable solution to start a wizzy to be able to get some good plat on an account?

Also, I'm not looking at high end-raiding or min/maxing, so what stat allocation and deity choice would be the most benefit for this lifestyle? I'm aware Sol Ro gets the ability for the rings.

Thanks!

I think you might make more as a druid but certainly a market for wizards too (some people just like a sow etc)... and remember you can port into Plane of Hate and up to Plane of Sky too ^^

How much money are you after? Are you doing this to fund an alt/main? There might be better options, depending on your answers....

Need to fund getting a wurmy for my 42 Paladin main and to do some slight twink on alts. Trying to build up some plat for the overall account as well.

I could talk min/max but I don't think this is the way the OP wants to do it, and rightly so...enjoy the journey ^

I'm not talking about min-maxing. I'm talking about levelling up a wizard for ports versus a druid. Druid can also buff for donations. Druid can most likely find a group faster. Druid can also solo easier...snare at level 1, sow at 14, and charm kiting can be done naked. A druid can also PL his buddies (or strangers for plat.)

To me, that sounds like a better investment for his needs. Alternatively, he could farm on his paladin. :)

This.

Wurmslayer is a terrible gear goal for a Paladin anyway.

Sword of Morning it is then :)

You have a suggestion on big camps for my trashcan fuckboy Paladin?

I sent you a PM.
