This is the reason i quit being a Wizard im sad to say
my wizard is a 34th on povar and i refuse to play her untill they do
something new wizards.... you made one very valid point... and it was
the reason i quit wizard completely.... Magicians and encanters and
Necros all have there place...... wizards have mana...THATS IT ... WHEN
THE HELL WAS THE LAST TIME YOU SOLOED a white or black .... IM sorry to
say that if you are fighting a squirrel with this class youd be lucky
if half your magik wasnt resisted.. some of it did 3 points of
damage... and 34rth this is really retarded.. and then by that times
the creature breaks your usless root spell because none of your other
so called better spells all suck as far as paralyzing your openent...
WE ARE PURE CASTERS... please give us double the mana or something.. I
dont even think this would make us more powerful... but it migfht give
us the ability to kill something our lvl....
in the mean time, i have chosen to play a cleric on Vallon Zek... A
very rewarding class to those of you who are sick of wizards... YOu can
heal .. you are loved. you can melee... and strangly enough at 30 i can
kill two blues and still have enough mana to heal me to full after
words ...go figure eq_clerics@onelist here i come
