Level 8 Character Traits and beyond

[perrin]

I am a new wizard and recently hit level 8 I was wondering what character trait I should select. I was also hoping someone could guide me in the right direction for the traits after that also. I solo mostly if this helps at all and I am a erudite on an RP server. Thanks.

You on LDL or AB?  If LDL, look me up (Trilarian) and I can give you some in game pointers.  :)Ah, as an Erudite, I'd grab the + casting speed, + spell crit, + max mp, and AoE damage traits first.As a wizard specifics (copied from the wizard's guide sticky)<span class="postbody"><span style="color: #ff80c0;">Level 14:</span>  Conflagration, Blaze, Painful Meditation, Freezing Whorl.Most people will go with conflagaration or blaze.  I would recommend Conflagaration for nice PBAE damage. Blaze gets upraded too fast.<span style="color: #ff80c0;">Level 24:</span>  Chilling Wing, Ball of Fire, Amplification, Breath of TyrantMost people should go with Ball of Fire.  Until Level 37 when you get your Ball of Flames, this is the best DD nuke for you.<span style="color: #ff80c0;">Level 34:</span>  Heat Stroke, Surge of Flames, Intromission, Freezing WindMost people should go with Freezing Wind.  This will be you best AE DoT until L48 when you get Icy Wind.<span style="color: #ff80c0;">Level 44:</span>  Hand of Tyrant, Vital Flow, Flame Strike, Inferno.The choice here is a bit tough.  Flame strike is very good, its very fast casting and has fast recast timer.  Inferno is a very good AE.  I personally went with flame strike as I had inferno at Adept III.  If you have both at Adept III, then Hand of Tyrant is not a bad choice.  +13 INT over the Adept 1.  What would you give to upgrade to a +13 INT item?  This one is free.<span style="color: #ff80c0;">Level 54:</span>  Protoflame, Ball of Incineration, Frostshield, Fists of TyrantThis is a again a tough choice.  Fists of  tyrant gives you +69 INT helping all your other spells, but Ball of Incineration becomes deadly at 1450 to 2100 DD.  Go with Ball of Incineration.  I am going to go with that one.</span>
