=============== The Wizard =============== “If my old masters could see me now...” ======================================= Wizards are renegade spellcasters who use their bodies as vessels for arcane energy, forsaking the more careful path favored by other magic users. They manipulate all manner of forces to disintegrate, burn, and freeze their foes, and they can control time and light to teleport, create powerful illusions, and deflect oncoming attacks.
Wizards grip wands and staves to focus their less potent magics, blasting at their enemies while gathering the energy or time necessary to destroy them in a dazzling hail of arcane might.With few exceptions, wizard attacks are conducted at a distance, away from danger. As living artillery, wizards are well suited to relying on long-range destructive power. Interesting / useful readsQUOTE 1. Spells and Damage explained - Credits to Saiph on the official forums. 2.

i think personal pref gua. actually wizard is not THAT Much behind other classes. in my opinion blizzard did a good job because many ppl very undecided and end up the classes are quite fairly distributed based on several polls i've seen.
no one flocking to any particular uber cool / imba etc class. all class got nice and not nice

slow time good for matrix style... esp when lots of range i suppose. i don't find the need for it yet, maybe later will. freeze is still good

haha wizard hard to tank la... get the templar to do the job for u (there are some nice +vit rings later that makes him basically cannot die)
for me in SP i realize those channeled spells like ray of frost, disintegration not easy to use, since u basically gotta stand there and let ppl tofusmash u. prefer arcane orb.

QUOTE(jenniferjen @ May 17 2012, 05:16 PM) diamond skin is more of an emergency resort while you try to escape try it with the rune that reduces casting cost, u can tank mob while using disintegration... i find it very effective
