First step, for gear:Go to the broker. Set it to filter the search for items usuable by Wizard, say levels 25-45, with INT.This should get you a good list of what is out there. It should be fairly obvious which items are crafted, and which are dropped. If you want, you can filter by slot as well, and go through each slot by itself. Spend a little time examining the items, and you can get a good feel on what a "good" item is comparedy to an "ok" one.Often, you can find pretty good +INT gear for really cheap. You can also find which ones are quested (check ogaming or another spoiler site for this), and get them for free.Adepts:Personally, if I had to pick 3, I'd go with my root, my main big slow-cast nuke (Ball of Flames?), then spend the last one on either a group buff, short-cast DD nuke, or possibly a single-target buff/damage shield like Coldshield. Really depends on your play style. If you group constantly, the long-cast nuke might not be the best bet, since mobs get burned down so fast with a good group, in which case I'd switch to the short-cast DD nuke that I use the most while grouping, or possibly on a DoT.Charms:Hex dolls with +int. Unless this has changed, you can equip even the T6/T7 ones at your level. Find some saguaro roots or figwart roots, and have a tailor make you a couple. At least one INT. The 2nd one, personally I'd make INT as well, though you can go with another stat to boost, since different stats will have different castables (the debuffs can be kinda nice, but really, I'd just want as much INT as I can get).You might consider hitting Feerrott after you gain a couple levels. Who knows, you might get the RoI quest starter while slaughtering the solo Huuptics on the beach, then your robe for a long while would be taken care of.The fairies near the docks in EL (and possibly other creatures nearby) occasionally drop Seamist Sylph Rings, with an int bonus, and finding rings with INT isn't the easiest thing in the world.Might hit Ruins of Varsoon as well, even if you'll be a tad bit high for it. Since they re-worked the loot tables there, there are some *very* nice caster drops there, mostly Legendary stuff from various named mobs. RE was also re-done but most of the nice gear I saw there was more physical than magicial.Hope this helps.--Tusk
