Wiz tank almost everything ?

[Hercules]

Throwback to euro days me and my mate both of us lvl 44+ wizzys could run in on a guild hunt that had 6+ in group and easily shield flamefield them and pretty much destroy them before they had chance to think....I can only imagine the cry’s when this starts happening. It’s how it’s always been, keep ya wits about you at all times and time your attacks.

Same always went for me if I didn’t have constant focus on a hunt I could be ambushed at anytime....I never had shield down and always had a bag of sunnys before I went hunting.

Wiz are a joke on here try hitting one on a assassin hitting -2s -10s....

Shield has always been applied to reduce the damage before AC has been applied. This makes AC more valuable to a wiz, For example in base crystal:

Calculation is (damage reduced by MS) - armour

So when:
WizAC = 10
SinDmg = 70
Shield=50%

(DC70 * 0.5) - AC10 = 25 damage

So when:
WizAC = 30
SinDmg = 70
Shield=50%

(DC70 * 0.5) - AC30 = 5 damage

Wizards maybe need a few milliseconds extra run delay after casting spells rather than tweaking power/defence, if they can't run from an attack as quickly (but not so much noticable) it could be an extra balancing option.

1 step auto run enables easy hits on wizards, rme is a wizards dream kr.

Fw flinch rme damage + the ability to remain hit free from pvp

Now catch a wiz in zt kr 3v1 mid zt kill and post the outcome

Flinch is something we are looking into. It was orginally 4, we wanted 3, but somehow managed to get 2, then had no time before the previous reboot to edit.

It should be 3.

I must admit I've not seen a single person moan about the flinch change since you fixed it. Correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't 2steps after being hit the norm? Why would it be 3?

The way its coded is out a little, i can auto run out of mobs or sometimes 1 step run, idk feels like i have 1 mir boot on n the other is a diadora flip flip

W.e its set at is a huge adv to melee, which is why nobody complained, meat heads cry for nerfs but fail to point out the other advantages they are using.

On the fd note its fine, if you didnt change the success of gems after a few kits was made, and or fix the shard bug, people wouldnt be crying about FD as much as theyd be a few levels higher by the time that kit was achieved=more hp/skills.

I see people in mc +12 -15 kits from broken gems, if you addressed that issue before it arose-we did say- you'd not have to change as much.

If you want the multipliers of euro skills just ask, theres plenty of knowledge available from the users.

Edit also to fix the fw issue you need to change your fw damage to live.

Fw atm if i cast and lk1 procs it hits 75 76 74 77 75 due to amc on mobs varying

With luck 7 thats fine, but with luck one it should be
75 23 54 29 55
Or 23 75 19 65 46

Most of the issue is proc'ing a lk7 fw with luck 1

Post's like these are humerous because, they'll miss out a few important details like:

He was naked. He was red poisoned. He was yellow poisoned. He wasn't at full HP when he got hit. He got hit by something else at the same time and the list goes on.

But, to him, it's "I GOT HIT FOR XXX HP WTF GM FIX!"

Buff 911 to 999 and the game is balanced

 

[koz1122]

Its 3 steps kori, on here you can run near instantly after being hit which benefits range over melee completely as melee have to toe to toe, wiz has had its fun and im happy gm’s have realised how broken they are. 150-220 fd’s that only way you can outpot is sun spam. Fwalls that are bugged and cant run through them at angles and double hit which can range from 50-120 damage ive seen thats an utter joke, tank as hell with shield up, can solo most bosses ingame even without a tao due to how fast bosses move on here and how stupid fwalls damage is. I’ve mentioned to gm’s about the hp buff in guild buffs that i think should be percentage based. Oh and to top it off gm’s have even been nice enough to allow you a timer in corner for shield so you know when its about to go, which i think is completely broken as only way to kill a wiz 1v1 atm majority of time is shield dropping, now when you can see your icon flashing, all you have to do is hide in your fwalls and recast it.

Most other classes seem balanced, wiz still seem to dominate server in every aspect, i do think red poison damage increase %age in pvp is abit mental too.

 

[DarkSacred]

Would be interesting to see shield absorb a % of damage up to a threshold then "pop" with a CD activating as the Wizards concentration has been broken causing an influx of power (+MC for X seconds) but that overload prevents shield from being recast for the same number of seconds. Shield naturally running out would not trigger influx.


Le gasp actually have to think about how to play and shield becomes both a protective and offensive tool if you know how to use it correctly.

"Wiz still seem to dominate EVERY server in every aspect" fixed.

Will happily wait patiently for a server brave enough to make serious changes to wiz because they weren't ever made for low population private servers. Looking to Mir low rate/fishing atm...

 

[Muh]

Make a wiz then and get 2 hit because your potting skills are as bad as your pvp skills

Ppl like zeus, levelled accounts with no real lvl 3 skills still destroy people in bw and stands outside the sz afk a lot.
Half of the posts are sub 40 players going up vs 45 wizards and crying nerfs

I.e sinbad a lvl 40/41 sin very vocal about balance but too low to even contemplate arguing vs a 45 wizard who's 5x his xp pool.if not more
Get lvl 3 rage, hem, ss, energy shield and sone xp in your bar before trying to stand a chance vs the highest level ingame
Wizards stack mc, mc mc every war and sin kit ive witnessed is about 10% of whats achievable ingame, no 43 weps no 40+ lvl 3 skills but plenty of imbalance cries.

I guess you never played Chronicles? Wizards were absolute garbage there.

55-65 yeah soon as sins wars and monks hit 70 they became redundant and couldnt solo any high tier/mid tier boss

Odin ring fresh 64 war/sin ring @70m insta sold

Didn't play then, all I know is early game trash, lvl 3 FF/Met/MagicBooster era were dominant, then apparantly just died off afterwards.

 

[Muh]

Yeah they then nerfed the mb due to cries and the class became redundant
Was 24-24 lvl3
Nerfed to 18-18

I can see the cries on here following suit
