A wizard is you...

Haledan, is the thread title drawn from this?

+1 if so!

Hope you're enjoying the wizard. He'll be highly raid desired at the higher levels but it'll be a bit of a struggle to get a group at times.

This is exactly what I was thinking when I titled the thread lol. It just seemed to fit. I am digging my wizard so far and am hoping my next 10 levels are as fun as the last 10. Good to hear there is some desire for the class on raids but that will be a long climb for me [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Ahh, just save up about 20,000 Lightstones and buy you a Manastone. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] You can port back to Classic zones and be FM in no time. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

You need Epic + Manarobe (Manastone is good for a select amount of content) or a Veeshan's Peak clicky nuke item in order for Wizards to be worthwhile, preferably both. Otherwise they just suck for PvE, aside from quad kiting. Unless you are going to be getting access to those items, leave this class behind.

Aw is it really so bleak? I'd love to have an epic some day but I was reading wizards had pretty long waits here. I couldn't find any info on the manarobe either...what is it?

[Erazmus]

Get jboots.

Access to epics is much easier on the red server, but if pvp isn't for you then that's all good.

The important thing to ask yourself is A.) are you having fun right now and B.) look at your past history with games. Do you stick around for years? If not, then play what is fun and don't worry about what is needed for raiding.

Well I'm not opposed to pvp. I had great fun in DAoC and Warhammer Online and I play GW2 solely for WvW but EQ PvP is different so I'm not sure how willing I am to commit to it. I'm also not sure what I think of the balance of PvP in EQ.

As for my past history it is hard to say. When I really commit I do tend to go all out. I was doing high end raiding EQ2 last time I played it (it was the velious expansion there too [You must be logged in to view images.

I guess I don't know yet and will find out along the way. I am having fun though and am actually planning on sticking to my wizard until that stops at least [You must be logged in to view images.

Wizard is very fun. Just make sure you carry a lot of reagents for absorb shields.
