I just remember Wiz was my first 50 & 60. I was a terrible Wiz too. I remember begging for the sun strike spell from my friends that were allowed to raid lol. Yah. I was that wizkid.
It was posts like this that encouraged me to try harder n keep playing Wiz. Only so many have had time to gear a Wiz and get those great quad spots. I probably wouldn't main Wiz till 51, and also just log out at the good solo camps n play another toon if they are already taken. Wiz r kind of. Camp specific. | ||

I've only ever grouped regularly with two. One was awesome: very attentive in combat and and active in group chat so you were confident he was there. He'd burn stuff down whenever things got hairy. The other was trying to fulfill the wizard stereotype I think, and would go several mobs without casting then nuke once or twice and proclaim himself oom. Was an interesting experience, and made timing pulls tricky as I never knew when he was going to nuke the snot out of something [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

We exist, most Wizards stay /anon or /role though so they aren't bugged for ports all the time...

Wizards are great on red, and everyone should have one eventually on blue.

Just tonight when I /ooc'd to LFG. I nearly instantly got a tell saying. "You should just give up now, your a wizard and no one will invite you to group." The person in question was a 37 Wiz themselves, so maybe this kind of demoralizing attitude (even to other wizards) could be why we don't see as many Wizards ans we should.

A good wizard can save a wipe, problem is the Netflix wizard crew is strong on p99

I started my wiz about a week ago. Currently level 12, but man it is rough in classic.

I recently got back into p99 and started fresh on Green server about 3 weeks ago, I've always played a Wizard. I am currently level 39, haven't been pushing as hard as I can to level but I've been on a grind so to speak to get to 50 and catch up.
Wizards are tricky, they can either be a huge waste of time exp and group space or they can be amazing. They can help CC (which I usually don't) if it comes to that I tend to take a mob myself and just burn it down. It's risky, but if circumstances dictate that I root then they are pretty dire circumstances. Most of the content I am grouped up on I can solo fairly efficiently. So taking a mob and burning it and eliminating it entirely is just as good as CC. Good wizards keep some in the tank at all times regardless what happens. No class is more worthless than a Wizard that is oom. I have saved groups from wiping just by being able to burn down a caster, or a healer, or just any mob that is loose on a healer. They are just like any class in old school EQ. When played right they are very beneficial and very useful, when they aren't they are dead weight. I am coming up through the ranks and see a lot of other wizards doing the same. They aren't easy starting out with no gear. They are much more efficient when they are twinked. So that's probably why there isn't many of them at the top right now. That being said a good wizard player can play basically naked, with minimal gear all the way up to 50.
