Is there anyone thinking about a battle wiz?
If you get some reflect shield (wizard), swell left arm (thaumaturge) and quicken (chronomancer), can this be a nice combo? Maybe with some transpose (thaumaturge) to be more tank, or joint penalty (linker) to kill some 3-4 monsters at the same time.
What do you think?
In theory, Wizard regardless of weapon be it staff or sword deal damage via magic atk, hence you will not deal any damage under transpose but have alot of HP. but you wont be tanking anytime soon since your aggro is too low since you have no INT during transpose duration to take aggro.
what i can see is thaumaturge is more of a support wiz than offensive one.
I made a build for just that. This was before I played in the beta, and I didn’t even get to try it. http://www.tosbase.com/tools/skill-simulator/build/zoe4orwk18/ The build I made goes pyro so you can use enchant fire to beef up attacks even more. Not entirely sure it would be good though, given the fact that wizards attack pretty slow.
the annoying jump attack pretty much makes wizard basic attack faster
Unfortunatelly I didn’t receive the oportunity to test the beta, but I actually think that this build can really work and be really different and fun to play!
Trying to set up with enchant fire from pyro may be a very cool skill to this build! And talking about transpose, yeah, would be kinda weird and with no purpose to put in it.
On the skill’s video of chronomancer, it shows the mage, after casting quicken, taking some real damage with the staff, even more than the archer next to it.
