no straight up cold DD's from lvl15 to 49.. what a shame.

<DIV>i love wizards and everything, but ice spike was a huge let down. the fact that im constantly gonna be using like 3 heat nukes and 0 straight up cold nukes kinda upsets me. why cant we get at least 2 decent cold DD;s during out path as a wizard. the cold DD + stun is nice, but 30 sec cooldown means only like 2 per battle, plus we get a heat one too.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>i think it needs to b e mixed in more, as of know this is how it works.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>most DD's (heat) stuns(cold/heat) Aoe dot/dot(cold) aoe(magic)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>so we use fire and magic a decent amount, but then the cold dot and stun are the spells used the least. the stun has a huge cooldown, and the dots dont need to be cast again until the duration is up leaving us not using cold stuff that much.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>does anyone else see the need to switch some fire in with the dots to make some cold nukes?</DIV><p>Message Edited by NecroRat on <span class=date_text>12-04-2004</span> <span class=time_text>12:52 PM</span>

<DIV>I'd like more cold based nukes too. Part of what I liked about being a wizard in EQ1 was having a selection of nukes to use in different situations. If I was fighting ice giants, I'd be using heat nukes and vice versa. I had a nuke(s) for every situation. </DIV>

<DIV>we are supposed to be masters of the elements, so I agree; where are our cold based nukes?</DIV> <DIV>At lvl 44 (I think), we get a Freeze upgrade.</DIV> <DIV>I have learned that mobs 35+ are too powerful for Freeze (evident by the 'Target is too powerful' that flashes on my screen).... so Blazing intimidation is really all we have; and its resisted alot! Benumb isnt too bad, but its nondamaging.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

<DIV>I wish there were more cold nukes too. Though, I forget what level but I have a cold DoT that is app 1 and does like 38-40 dmg so that is alright I guess.</DIV>
