Wizard, when do they turn the corner?

What exactly makes wizards so adept at pvp? I hadn't heard that before.

Mobility, utility, and burn capability.

Outside of combatting raid geared toons, a naked wizard dropping lures can wreck another player quite quickly ... Especially if the wizard gets the drop on the other person and starts from a place that gives a big advantage geometrically.

Porting and gating classes have a big advantage in escaping.

Decrease Hitpoints by 1110 (L49)

That would 1 shot a lot of players, if not most, around that 49 level range.
Kinda makes me want to roll a wizard [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Only just saw this thread.

Wizards life begin at 60 in Kunark and Velious.

In Luclin ( if it ever happens here ) wizards become a very dependable and wanted class even in groups due to spell crits, with AA wizards become OP

The most important wizard spell is Concussion.

Luclin won't happen here. Wizards will remain a solo/raid class. If you do not want raids, there is really no reason to be a wizard instead of a druid.

Most PVP wizards are played by no-talent losers who go up to city of mist and cast ice comet on ungeared noobs while they are engaged with mobs, then brag about their K/D ratio. The above poster is a classic example.

Also, players take 2/3 or so damage from spells in PVP, and with 150+ resists very few casts will land for full.

Rave is bitter about blue, pay him no mind, but yeah, 49 wizards are good times for casual pvp and you don't have to do it in com, I got most of my kills out in the wild

One thing no one has brought up yet... I found while leveling what you lack in group desirability, you can make up for in sheer mobility by getting on multiple group lists at once and being able to port and hop around to fill a spot quickly when it arises.

...All the while doing some solo'ing or trading while you wait.

Sorry but on p99 wizzies never truly turn the corner since they won't get manaburn.
