Wizard class, offense or defense?

[CptCrumpet]

If you went wizard would you go warlock or grand wizard?

Personally I'd go grand wizard, although warlock has more staying power, there's no point in staying if you aren't doing the killing so I'd go grand wizard.

Grand wizard and 137 movp shoes for a killer that can be easily killed.

Warlock and max hp for a stayer, a longer life kind of player.

Warloks if you want to be a dominating mage.

Grand wizard if you want to kill archer-priest.

Warriors high hp is countered by high damage.

Archers low defense is countered by warlocks staying power.

I'm not going to argue but I'll explain my logic to you so that you understand my viewpoint.

Grand Wizard 137 MOVP - Harder target to land skills on from skill classes, harder target to land spells on by priests and other wizards.
Up to g4 magic vigor symbol, that means faster tactics and exp leveling, better blasting support and more damage to priests and warriors.
Speed helps it stay out of trouble the weakness is its lasting power, it wont take much to kill a FGW(Fast grand wizard) but they have the ability to stay clear of danger and attack the enemy fast and hard.

Warlock Turtle - Harder defense, better for surviving archers and skill classes longer than the FGW, yet because is slower has a higher probability of being stuck in a crowd of enemies getting torn to pieces. Due to slower speed is unable to place spells as effectively as the FGW and escape targets after engaging them with a spell. Although can survive archer and thief's X-fire more efficiently is also an easier target to land a double X on defeating the purpose of the initial defense.
The advantage however is wizard v wizard where vampire touch will be on the warlocks side as opposed to the FGW's, however if he can't cast a slow spell on the FGW then the FGW can spam flamewave until the WLT(Warlock turtle) runs out of mana and dies.

Hybrid Grand/War Wizard - Gains some advantages and disadvantages from both sides of the coin, my wizard Relbo on NR whom could take out warriors much higher than his own level was a high hp hard hitting slow grand wizard, had more durablity than a FGW but more hitting power than WLT and was able to wipe the floor with most classes except was more subseptable to priests lifedrain.

No good laser weapon for priest.

However, defenitivly, priest has the upper on a on duel VS mage. Even more when you can't repot.

Mage his an aggresive class. However, if you wan't to own on big pking, you will need warlock. If you do not pick warlock let me tell you what will happen: You will get blued then ex'ed to death. Or blued then someone ld u+hit.

Mage biggest strengh is speed. It's the quickest class of the game, abuse of it.

I am indeed, the one that is correct. You can play 137 movp on a d1 warlock, u know that?

Also, if you want to kill a priest you should use: g8 mv staff, g6 armor mv, g6 mv hat, g8 br boots. With the ac you need with warlock to survive ld+1 hit.

With this build on a 137 movp, u can get a good ac with shield and tank extreme. You're as quick as a GW, same dommage, and resist more. Win, win win?
