I did exactly what you're looking to do - leveled my wizard all the way up by mostly soloing while I worked. In earlier levels you can just root and nuke, and then once you reach mid-levels you can start quad kiting.

Works well cause you can get some exp, then minimize EQ while you med.

I had a lot of fun soloing as an enchanter.

I only got to lvl 21, so maybe I would change my mind in later levels, but with spells like lull, root and mem blur, I found soloing pretty easy and a lot of fun.

I played a necro before, too, so the change from fear kiting was nice.

You definitely want a peggy cloak, jboots and a see invis item as soon as you can get them. Wizards work best nuking from above if possible as they're quite vulnerable... work that Z axis [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Can't remember what I killed sub 25 but I do remember hitting up the sister isle in OOT, the bard in Feerrot, Highkeep guards, spectres etc. She's a dark elf, probably better in hindsight not to completely trash Freeport faction but it was profitable.

That's the thing about red, you want to make bank as you level a bit more than on blue to cover spell costs which come around a bit quicker - especially now.

SK also. FD is one of the Safest ways to AFK other than camping, and even that is not safe if you come back up not knowing what mobs have re popped. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It has to be Necro, Monk, SK. Sure a Mage or Wizard can sort of Sneak into a crevice or something way up on a hill, but if you get trained you are a dead man. Where FD'ed you are safe no matter what.

You get into some kind of "Death Loop" and you are in big crap. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

actually wizard is good, just afk, look at mana bar, if its not full, afk more, come back, still not full? continue to afk..

basically be afk the entire time and you're playing a wizard both on a classic server, but in a very classic style.

Solo leveled a wizard on red before the group XP bonus went in, had no gear really but that just means shorter med times [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Didn't quad becuase I didn't have a good mana pool.

She made it to 51 and is probably the worst geared 50+ wizard on red. Just has an oracle robe and some +int jc'd stuff.

Totally doable solo, even as a first class...patience required but that goes for anything you solo [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

If you can alt-tab at free will then quading with wiz would work but if you are forced to tab out at any given time then a fd or pet class is your thing imo.

When I worked from home mage worked best.

- Break a blue-con fast repop camp.
- Stand in the camp AFK in aggro range.
- Repops owned by pet.
- Come back 7 hours later.
- Sweet, 2 levels done.
