New Player - Need Feedback With Wizard Builds

Class and Rank Wizard
#1

Hi everyone!

Please provide feedback regarding these two builds I’m leaning towards. Keep in mind that I’ve never played any of the betas before. I made my decisions based off of what I’ve read from this forum.

I feel that these two builds would suit my mostly solo playstyle with the occasional parties for dungeons and zone bosses. I really like playing as a mage and for this reason, I’ve ignored all the other classes. :wink:



Build #1: This was based off of a Cryo3Psy3 concept. It takes advantage of the many control skills available to Cryomancer and Psychokino. I’m probably going to make this one a tanky mage by investing 1:1 in con:int. The damage output doesn’t bother me since this is more control-focused rather than damage.



Build #2. This second build uses Wiz3Cryo1Sorc1Nec2. The idea behind it was to make a mobile minion-based mage that utilizes the freezing effects from Cryomancer to provide a little bit of crowd control when needed. I took Wiz3 for Magic Missle and Quick Cast to providing extra damage and cast speed for a just few spells from Cryo, Sorc, and Necro. Apparently Quick Cast’s damage boost to Flesh Cannon and Flesh Hoop is pretty decent. I’m planning to invest in 1:1 con:int for this one as well.



=========== EDIT #1 ===========

Here is a modified version of Build #2. I took off Nec2 and Wiz3 in favor of Link2 and Sorc3. I kept Cryo1 as a filler because I like it best out of the rank 2 classes. It gives me a little bit of freeze control when needed.

=========== EDIT #2 ===========

Decided to combine the first two builds and came up with this very rough build:

It has minor freeze from Cryo1, some more control and damage from Psy3, and summons from Sorc2. The idea is to CC targets while minions attack them.

=========== EDIT #3 ===========
One last build to throw out there. This makes use of Cryo3Sorc3 for maximum freeze effects + passive damage (aka auto attack) from minions. This won’t have any crowd control from the Psychokino class and I don’t mind spamming mana pots as needed. More direct damage from Familiar, Evocation, and Desmodus. Stat distribution remains as 1con:1int. What do you guys think?

Please let me know what you guys think. I’m pretty flexible with making changes.

=========== EDIT #4 ===========
=========== UPDATE ===========
I decided to pick Cryo3Sorc3 for my first char. We’re not going to be stuck at Rank 7 forever so I picked the class combination I thought would be most enjoyable for me at this point. When future ranks come out, I’m planning to add Warlock into the mix.

#2

Build one is a common pvp build, a lot of them drop 1 rank of psyco or cryo for warlock at 7.

Second build i am strongly opposed to as i find sorc + necro to bad a awful combination. Also many player that continued playing sorc into KOBT say don’t bother if your only going to do sorc 1. Typically rank 2 is recommended to get summon control skills.

#3

Interesting. For Build #2, would you recommend going Sorc3 instead of taking ranks in Warlock?

#4

That is what i typically advise to people looking at the sorc/necro route if they are really into the pet thing.

Edit: You might also want to change your early ranks as wiz c3/c2 do not give much to sorc

#5

Right. I won’t have a use for Wiz3 anymore since I mainly took it to boost Flesh Cannon and Hoop.

What do you think about Evocation and Desmodus? Is Sorc 3 worth getting at this point?

#6

Those came after i tried sorc so i can’t really give you any useful info on them.

#7

I edited my post above to show a third build based off of the second one. I guess I’ll try Sorc3. Desmodus seems to work well with links since it pierces and deals many hits.

Do you know if we could change classes? For instance, when rank 8 comes out and I decide to go Sorc2, Nec2 by changing my rank 7 class, will I be able to do that?

#8

Currently there is no method or item that allows changing of classes.

#9

Alrighty, good to know.

How did you find Sorc2 when you were playing? How do you feel about finding and farming boss cards?

I’m not sure if I could get Temple Shooter right away after unlocking Sorc1. What boss card alternatives would you recommend?

#10

I got temple shooter early because i happened across him before i knew he was the best. but i also just used things i thought looked cool because i am incredibly vain.

#11

Lol. I would pick the coolest-looking one too if I didn’t dig up any info about summons.

I noticed all of the Sorcerer’s boss summons are pitch-black. Is this intentional or is there an option to change how they look?

#12

Thats how they are. They are black with like a cloudy gas around them.

What do you think?

@joltan_kulle

never seen a build like this last one, doesn’t look bad but kino3 seems to sinergyze with Featherfoot.

Cryo3>Sorc2 seems to be good, I’m also not a fan of mixing Sorc and Necro since they are only 1 rank appart and probably only 1 of them will have good sinergy with shadowmancer.

What’s a shadowmancer? :open_mouth:

#18

a wizard class that we have datamined the costume for, so we know its comming. However we don’t know any skills or a rank yet.

#19

Thanks. Would you go Wiz1Cryo3Kino3 or take 1 circle from either Cryo or Kino to get Warlock1?
