do enchanter if you want to pvp

do mage/necro if you don't give a fuck

I personally don't give a single fuck and I enjoy mage. Necros can beat up mages and they are awful.

If you want to PvP Wizard is real solid but will not be as effective as it is now when Velious drops.

[Tameth]

Do mage. Welcome to red. Warmest aloha.

[Feanol]

Magicians get some incredible nukes, second only to a Wizard.

Smart pet placement means you've got a 2v1 advantage.

Rain spells, when cast on the unsuspecting, ruin lives.

Mages suck . Don't do it to your self

[Kergan]

If the thought of your primary source of damage going away every time you zone or having the least defensive abilities of any class doesn't bother you then go ahead and roll a mage.

I am the winner of the mage botb on red. I vote no

I started a mage first on p99 because farming. You do feel pretty vulnerable without your pet. I was nervous at first. But, I've only been killed by a basement dwelling twink once and she's in her 30s now. I don't regret it. Saw a guild posting on red saying they were in need of mages. No ragrets.

Choose a Paladin if you're scared. Mage if you wrestle bears blind folded.

Earlier this week, a mage medevaced me across DL before this nice wizard I met at spires could land a killing nuke. Thought that was a neat way to dodge getting YTed.

What else was there to do on blue the past 2 years?

[Voland]

do enchanter if you want to pvp


Is chanter really considered good in pvp?

I don't get it... chanter's nuke and dot are both magic-based
and will be resisted if opponent is MR geared.
Ok, so chanter can mez/tash/cancel magic but then what?
Wait for a good mob to wander by to be charmed?

[Kergan]

Because despite what certain individuals say on these forums, very little PVP is 1v1 PVP and enchanters can queue up YTs for your pals like no other class.

get out while theres still time

[FAPhoenix]

A great enchanter is a beast....most suck because they think they kill via nukes or dots. I duo with one who is 80-26 or so....patience. He will set you up, mez lock, snare....debuff all day long before sitting and loading up his kill.

And as noted, if they are paired with a quick kill class you are in a corpse run.

Luckily 90% of the chanters here are awful and pvp like they solo pve.

best advice of the entire thread.

thanks for allt he helpful advice so far but i still can't relaly decide, sounds like enchanter is nice? what should iroll for enchanter? race wise? and what kinda stats?

[totmanc]

Erudite or Highelf if you like to charm. Personally I think I should have rolled a Erudite initially I did a dark elf for hide breaking charm (really over rated)

[Kergan]

Make sure you choose agnostic as your deity.

dark elf can break charm with hide

or you can save up 5-10k and get a ring that does the same thing

like they said it's not really a big deal, you can just cast regular invis to break charm.

pick whatever you like staring at for the rest of your life

also, put your points into charisma

taper enchantment for 5 mana ist gud too
