My timezone is PST. I can play pretty much whenever. During the dayime I'm at work, but I have plenty of downtime at work. This kind of Wizard setup would be perfect for me, actually, because we can go blast some people and then I can get back to doing what I need to do while we med up. I won't always want to play at work, though, because there's another game I already play at work (LOL). If you want to be a Gnome that's cool. I'm gonna stick with Erudite; I just really want that race for my Wizard. I'd prefer to start leveling up over in West Antonica, if the group is cool with that. It's not really hard to get a SoW and Teleport to get setup over in that area. I figure this would be a nice change of pace for most people as well, since people these days usually go the East Antonica or Faydwer route at the start.

Are you actually going to pull 3-6 things at a time to take advantage of this? And if you do.... you're going to need a measure of luck and skill in there that has very little room for error because one missed root in a pack of mobs or a few resists... And you're hurt badly and have to sit/bandage, all running for your lives or worse: dead. If you only pull safe then whats the point of 6 wizards? 3-4 wizards will accomplish the same feat. It's a cool idea - but its kinda closed minded in implementation... "We could do so much more!" "Nope all wizards... want to overkill 1 or 2 mobs"

I was going to consider joining you on this as it sounds like fun, but if some of the people that are replying to this are also joining ...no thanks. some of you are so anal ...over analyzing this. The dude wanted to put 6 wizards in a group...Sounds good to me. Not efficient?...who cares? Its a freakin game, [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] stop trying to micromanage a game. If you work then apply those skills there. if you dont work then get a job and then apply those skills. Not a rant by the way..not even mad...but some of you would mess up a wet dream.
OP: great idea. Dont let them derail it. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] | ||

That group didn't do too well. Other than the obviously high guy who had to constantly afk... people really didn't have fun. This is a cool idea.... but grinding out 55 levels with your 6 man wizard group is going to get tedious and rather painful quick. So in project manager terms.... I'm pointing out a risk (lack of fun) and I'm trying to request a couple classes to mitigate said risk. PS - You can use all kinds of crazy stuff as credits towards your PMP (wedding planning/deck building/even many fun activities... so your let's keep the work just at work is rather silly)

What the holy fuck are you talking about, Bantam. Do you even understand what ROLEPLAYING is? Do you even understand game mechanics?

It's not just cool, it's also effective. It cuts down on the normal problem Wizards have when soloing, which is that they need to spend a lot of mana and time on constantly rooting since Direct Damage breaks root (they can of course Quad Kite later on, but that gets boring). In normal group play Wizards often feel very disappointing as well because they are not doing great DPS. With 6 Wizards, though, you remove needing a tank and a healer from the equation and thus each Wizard is more worthwhile. It's not the "best" group, but it should be effective until Level 55, which is when you can go off and do the real AoE groups. Quote:

Also I would think using 1 wizard with low hp agro to kite while the others just blast away with AE's would be the best way!

So that's obvious hogwash. Next up - the only stuff you're going to reliably nuke/root is going to be white or lower. Now unless I was just unlucky as hell on my wizard back in the day I remember resists on non blues being a PAIN. I also remember the nuke on a blue taking about 1/4-1/3 of the health... heck my shaman can nuke blues for about 1/4-1/5... so why do you need 6 wizards to get your effect? Making root stick on something worth using 6 wizards on then actually getting all 6 wizards to actually land their nukes fully seems ineffective. I'm not saying it won't work... I'm just saying the idea is pretty one dimensional and tedious. PS - Not trying to jump down your throat, but you asked if anyone is interested and I'm offering some ways to garner more interest and up your success chance of actually hitting 55. If you can prove me wrong with your 6 man wizard group actually leveling up together then more power to you.
