The last time I tried, I was twinked pretty well and it still took 50% health and 100% mana just to kill two bandits.

But that aside, knowing all this stuff just kind of kills my interest in the class.

-It's a genuinely tough class with a very high skillcap.
-Even the best of enchanters die regularly.
-It's difficult to do tradeskills with given that we're not allowed to put our points into INT. My enchanter had as hard of a time doing tailoring as my ranger did.
-The epic is gatekept to hell and back by the cartels controlling Verina and Drozlin.
-It's a very popular class nonetheless and might have raid stacking issues.

All of that is why I have a tough time getting into an enchanter. But this thread isn't about rerolling into another class or trying to find a guild. It's about finding cool soloable no-drop Seal of Thoridain style items that my wizard could work toward. Does anyone have any suggestions on that front?

Also don’t reroll if you’re looking to raid. Through raiding you can get the items and plat you desire.

Apparently WL suits are good but I never tried it.

Eye of Zomm + worker’s mallet for bank / finding fares. Lost staff of the scorned for vendor / bank.

Not trying to sound mean here, but most of these points are wrong. Enc is a very fun and fast leveling class.

That's what I've heard but tbh I've been through three guilds on this server and none of them felt like a home. It's why I've made peace with being a solo player.



I do really want one of those still.



yup my life is basically wyverns right now, haha



Naw it doesn't sound mean. I totally get it. Those points are all things I'm glad to be wrong on, because part of me keeps getting the urge to try enchanter over and over again.

On the epic thing though, it really is mostly because I still dream of earning an epic one day. It's still a life goal of mine. So I've been just shying away from classes with the insanely tough epics (enchanter, bard, mage, etc) and have considered trying classes solely because they have easy epics, like rogue or cleric or shaman. I picked wizard in the end because while it isn't the easiest, it's also not impossible like some. The happy balance between those two examples.

You will never get a wizard epic unless you join a raiding guild and raid at least occasionally.

Dude, stop screwing around on a Wizard and roll a Necro if you're going to continue with this "woe is me I'm a solo player for life" mentality. That's a class that's literally designed to solo. Speaking as someone who's leveled both, you will feel MUCH more powerful and useful on the Necro, and be able to do a lot more stuff solo. It's also a much more fun class. As an unguilded solo player, the Wizard is literally only better for porting yourself around. And that's largely pointless, because... what are you even porting yourself for to begin with? To go be useless in another zone?

Druid has an easier Epic than Wizard.
Druid can quad and port like wizards can.
Druid is easy to raid with like Wizards are.

On top of this Druids can solo more loot camps (even stuff like Siren’s Grotto and PoM) than wizard. They also have animal charm which makes for more fun leveling options. They can harmony and are able to powerlevel others. It’s not a complicated class.

You won’t be popular in groups but better than wizard and you won’t ”need” a VP key for some important item (like Wizard Rend Robe and Flames of Ro staff).
