Advice on strategy for a Wizard
Hello All,
Ive been on p1999 for 3 weeks and I am drawn to play a wizard. Its where I feel comfortable, have one over on Live. I know its a tough road in classic and thats ok. Im 26 now and have soloed to this point. I would like to do some dungeon grouping as I have done very little even on live, but I dont have much experience with most dungeons. Would it be worthwhile to try and find an upper guk group as a wizard (dark elf) or am I better off soloing in open zones which I am very familiar with. Not sure a wizard would get a group and especially someone who doesnt know the way to all the camps, etc. I will add that im poorly geared, 8 slots open currently although I was given a few nice items by generous people as a low level. I feel this will only increase my difficulty in getting a group compared with a twink. Thanks. | ||

I've lvled with a bunch of wizards since returning a couple weeks back. I would suggest hopping into a dungeon and not really worrying about knowing it all that well. Bring the map up and when you get a tell ask them where the camp is.
I've been in MM a lot and wizards have been invited to a lot of the groups I've been in. You shouldn't have a problem finding a group there unless everyone is full or needs something other than DPS. Not to mention, first 2 camps, Pond and GY, are very easy to get too. | ||

Unless you're with friends, you will probably have a hard time finding groups. Wizard sustained dps during classic is unfortunately just bad and most people know it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
If you're in a group frequently plagued with down time or in a spot where you're always waiting on spawns, that down time will help level the playing field.

@OP, most people are going to discourage you from playing a Wizard because it's not the most effective class (by a long shot).
If you're committed to sticking with it I'd reach out to someone who mains a Wizard (/who all wiz 60) and ask them any questions you might have. You're likely to get a better response than 'reroll' that way. Either way best of luck to you. | ||

Lost staff of the scorned, pay 20-30pp.
Decent melee dps until the teens, where your spells really start to take off and encs you group with might have breeze to help you out further. Later on provides a clicky group port spell too. Obviously too late for the melee now, but will be good for the porting. Staff of Temperate Flux is a quest you can look into. | ||
