Yes, runecaster is viable Dealer now. Rune of destruction will splash damage to each linked mob. Fits well into Wizard2+linker3+thauma3+ runecaster farmer build.
@game8bravo Glad the new top-down reduces your lag!
@megamanex14 Muscle wizard, sounds strong. I don’t dislike it.
@Kannushi Chrono is best with SPR builds now. If you need more damage on chrono, try to fit SPR classes such as sorcerer. It is still important to group mobs, so kino2 magnetic force or linker joint penalty&knot is recommended. The cryo3 chrono3 pyro2 resetted into cryo3 chrono3 kino2 to group mobs at ET and to provide heavy gravity utility support. The reason she kept cryo3 is for ice wall at Earthtower. High level ice wall (more ice wall HP) is great with party skills such as breaking wheel to destroy Earthtower objectives.
Other wizard supports are thaumathurge, and linker. Can also go hybrid damage & support CC with pyromancer and psychokino. Sorc1 cat buff still great, and enchanter2 buffs also still great.
@Kanna @alavien1 Spirit shock attribute of linker3 was nerfed. It is still decent single-target damage but not recommended for dealer build anymore. Two popular linker3 builds are Wiz2-linker3-thauma3-runecaster farmer build, and wiz3-linker3-thauma3 farmer build (without having to unlock runecaster).
@Pinata44 Giant is fast. I have not heard about any visual fix yet.
@siryal2110 frost wizard for dealer is difficult. All other wizard classes are better at dealer. For CC, cryo1 provides all freezing you need (frost pike can already hit flying, and 3 overheat). Total of 15 seconds freeze in AoE, and cooldown is 20s. Compare to cryo3 (2 more rank circles) for 10s freeze with 45s cooldown. Higher cryo would be for ice wall+party combo to destroy objectives, or PvP.
Snowball is a bad skill because it scatters mobs at the end of its duration.

@Crossheart Most wizard classes have CC. Easiest and best to use are wizard (sleep, cannot hit flying), Cryo1 (frost pike, ice bolt), Pyro2 (fire pillar), psychokino (magnetic force, gravity pole, heavy gravity slow), linker (joint penalty&hangman knot). There are more CC skills however they are not popular like the mentioned CC skills.

Froster lord hit ~30’000 per hit
Conclusion: gain ~1000 more magic attack with INT for skills, and lose 50% damage of summon, INT not worth if you have sorc1 summon. Go SPR + high weapon.
