i know this topic die too, because noone love wizards ) |
This topic always dies quickly :(
Does anyone else get the feeling that many people in the tourney are anti-wizard? I actually met an elf with resistance. |
| I met an elf that was designed to kill wizs :P but yea people dont like wizs haha |
Wizards have no chance of killing an elf when half their gargs die to one hit of unicorns (which are not to be focussed at start due to their aura, or the fight is lost even more).
Sadly elves dominate wizards at nearly all levels, referring to full art fights:
low levels, due to low effectivity of caster arts and uselessness of might builds
high levels, due to magic-armor items and uselessness of magic-armor-piercing items
The amounts of piering might become helpfull if they were calculated to the magic-armor in a different way.
At the moment the pierce pierces its percentage through the percent of magic-armor (oh yeah, percent of percent, GREAT effect ... oh wait its absolutely useless). Aswell the percentages (as there can be many items that have it) add up as percentages of eachother aswell ...
If the percentages were to be calculated vice versa it would become really usefull atlast, example:
Old, 40% magic-armor versus 25% pierce => 30% magic-armor left.
New, 40% magic-armor versus 25% pierce => 15% magic-armor left.
Aswell, it would become interesting to think of what happens when the wizard has more pierce than the enemy has magic-armor.
Either let it be useless (as there is now, if the enemy has 0% magic-armor, and the wizard any amount of pierce), or make an amplifier out of it that adds extra to the damage of the spell.
2nd possibility becomes really frightening when thinking of magic dark elves with high faction level ;)
But since the only possibility for dark elves currently are might builds, why not make them better at magic :)
Just some thoughts, triggered by a recent battle ;) |
for I_own_you_all:
Did you try more defense and less spell damage?
I'm not an expert PvPer and I lost many duels, but I couldn't have a chance if I wouldn't have taken away wizard robe + scroll (I don't know it's name) and put shield + armour instead. |
Lvl 5 Wizard, what is the best arts setup for tourney ? (Also what to put my primary skill points into, after I use potion of oblivion ?)
Should I use rings for morale or rings for initiative ? |
for v_ram:
Im not an expert wizz but since gargs and golems dont have morale I think rings of inspiration arent a good choice.
Maybe Ring of impetuosity ? |
for v_ram:
As far as I remember you need initiative especially against elves, so your magi need to have their turn before opponent's druids. This way you can kill elven bows with magi before they kill your magi with druids.
And as morale has no effect at the beginning of the battle, go with initiative. |
| Definitely rings for initiative. Gargs and golems don't benefit from morale, and magi die very quickly anyway, before morale is very useful. |

With a bit of luck it isn't impossible. Duel from tournament against elf lvl 9 with diamond upgrades:

Without diamond upgrades I think this elf setup would loss most of the time to a wizard (and it is used a lot in this tournament) |
With a bit of luck it isn't impossible.
Of course its possible, already done many times, but what i just hate about wizards-fighting-elves fights is that they are pure luck dependant:
- genies casting confusion on shooters, its like an instantkill
- genies casting slow on heavy melee hitters, if possible not next to unicorns
- knocking shot of gmb (maybe confusion should affect the knock shot probability too)
- luck of any elf unit
- favored of any elf unit
- luck AND favored on a unit, that was what i meant with my when half their gargs die to one hit of unicorns since quadruple damage is just a rape for anything, no matter if it has stoneskin and the attacker is debuffed or not
There are just so many lucky parameters which i hate to have in battle, since (i guess most wizards think so) I want to have control over the battle and not having to watch my units die while i can cast once before I actually lost the fight.
Did you try more defense and less spell damage?
Actually that is a great idea, even though i already sacrificed much spellpower for defence (of course only with some arts and not the free combat level stats), but I think some more defence can make the big difference, gonna try more defence next fight :) |
For v_ram:
Unfortunately, lvl 5 wizards are nerfed too weak now, 4 magi are definitely not enough to face many of your opponents. Quite unfair to wiz IMO when druids count isn't reduced while magi lost nearly half their recruitment |
I have read this in the general help...
What is the truth? Can wizards cast holy magic spells?Or this will be implemented later?
"Wizards study Nature and Chaos magic with an option to unlock Holy magic later on; " |
for akz:
at level 10 wizards can buy the Academy of Holy Magic.... see also the Wiz talent wheel, yellow part at the left...
also, magi can cast dispersion (=holy magic..) |
also, magi can cast dispersion (=holy magic..)
Druids can cast destruction spells, and ogres holy :P

Actually, luck and critical = triple damage. |
