View Full Version : Wizards unite!

Okay, I was thinking the other day while playing my Wizard, how hard this class can sometimes be. I mean, groups are hard pressed to take us in, soloing is terribly inefficient and for the most part, we only make it to raids because we have the ports up there. This being said, my Wizard is still fairly low level, yet I love him! The porting around the world, being able to bind in obscure places knowing i'm never stranded. Doing fun quests like Staff of the Wheel and knowing that being a Wizard almost makes me a part of an unsaid, unmentioned club.

Let's be honest, Wizards need to stick together, we're few and far between and sometimes just having a little Wizard pride, and jabbing it up with other Wizards is what we need! As I was teleporting into Toxx the other day for my Staff quest, I started thinking about how fun it would be, to some Saturday night, have all the Wizards on the server, teleport to the same spire, and just spend some time gabbing, getting to know each other and hanging out for an hour or so. Almost the same way guilds have a guild meeting, except this would be strictly for us Wizards. Dark Elf...High Elf....elite guild, newbie guild. All differences set aside and uniting under one common bond; the fact that we love our Wizards!

This whole idea might not get much attention, and I know I sound a little nuts, but even if only 5 or 6 of us show up, I think this would really be a fun event that could take place. I'm not sure if this is in the right category on these forums, and if not, feel free to move it to it's appropriate location. I'm gonna go ahead and set this up for next weekend. I'm not sure when people raid, or who raids or what, but i'm scheduling it anyway, in hopes that some of you will attend, low level, and high level alike...Just port in, jibber jabber for a while, and then we all go out motivated to kill stuff! Consider this as something to do next Saturday night and I hope to see all of you Wizards there!

What: Wizard's hangout meeting!
Where: Toxxulia Forrest Spires
When: 10:00pm EST, Saturday night July 23rd, 2011
Why: Because, lets be honest here...with enough of us involved, this could be really enjoyable. The Toxx forest spires are the most secluded port location, where it can mostly be just us and Wizards as low as level 20 can port in and hang out. Don't be too cool, for Wizard school! Come represent your guild, your class and your knowledge on the platform of Wizardry, don't miss out!

Hope to see you soon!

Another good element of this, OP, is that nubbie wizards could ask more experienced wizards for some tips and tricks and the like. I'd love to be involved but I don't have the balls to play a wizard apparently. Also, consider having some of the higher wizards able to port the wizards not high enough to port themselves.

Great idea, OP!

Wizards probably shouldn't stick together because if there's anything a group wants less than a wizard it's two or three wizards.

Shameless bump for the sake of bumping!

If you're a Wizard, don't forget that this event is taking place tonight at 10pm EST. Don't miss out, this will be fun!

Wizards do stick together, especially in groups. We call it skyfire <_<

6 wizards will destroy your pathetic group.

It's too bad. No Luclin, no AAs, no Manaburn dragon teams :( .... or crits. Bleh.

I had such a blast 4 or 5 manning dragons like that on EQLive way back when =)

Yep...that was the greatest time for being a wizard. As soon as Luclin came out I grinded my 23 AA's or w/e it was for Manaburn...we made a Manaburn wizard channel and everytime something was up, we took it out lol. I hated Luclin, but that ability united all the wizards and brought us back to all the good classic stuff...until they nerfed it shortly after lol. I managed to take in tons of loot and cash before the nerf tho. We basically owned anything that was pre luclin with the 32k hp limit...and even more depending on how many wizards with manaburn were online. We usually killed ST key dragons like Sont too. Fun times...It actually made wizards highly sought out by guilds and even as help on raids lol. We basically helped any wizard, especially those without guilds, get their epic pieces...and if anything else dropped that was no drop, we'd offer it out to anyone who needed it...good times! :)

Not a wizard myself, but I figured this was appropriate to post.

I'm thinking you guys should all port into Cazic Thule. That's an ever more secluded spot and at least there's stuff to kill which could kill you right back. :)

CT port on this server is far more safe than CT port on live.

Not that i'm complaining...

Yeah, I noticed that too. On live, porting to CT was a huge risk as there was quite often, something in agro range of the pyramid. On this server it's been quite safe.

Yep one of my newb momments was related to this.

I think some point later down they line they revamped CT to be a lvl 50+ zone but initially kept the port spells to get there in the 20s. :confused:

And they call this Classic!

Best part of being a wizard, porting that unsuspecting twinked asshole that called you a noob to CT and gating out. Not that I ever did such a thing...

Sorry, I just read this~ I might have come, can't remember what I was doing at the time.

Next time maybe ask a guide to globally announce it. They may do that.
