Yeah, it would be very misguiding otherwise. I am on the verge of my r6 and would go necro 1 if linking into a dirty pole is available from c1, I don’t mind missing the damage from c3 honestly it’s pretty powerful without it.
I don’t think that’s what you ment though.
One of my rank 4 Wiz is in exact same situation and this is what i’ll go if i ever want to bring it to rank 8. Waiting for Agni necklace of course.
Wiz 1 -> Pyro 1 -> Link 1 -> Thauma 1 > Link 2 > Pyro 2 > Link 3 > Sage
Pyro 3 > Linker 2 > Thauma 1 > Sage, with thauma recent buffs and Agni Necklace might be good, Pyro 2 > Linker 2 > Thauma 2 or anything close to that finished with Sage probably would, full INT from now on, should be full INT from the start.
