So... Wizard or Necromancer?

ToxicWi · 09-16-2005, 05:29 AM

I cannot decide whether to be a necromancer with my mage or a wizard. Yes, I am new to the game and have waited to make a class decision until LU13 like many advised. Basically, I like to solo very well along with being desired in groups, but the latter isn't a HUGE priority, I just like to be wanted in groups. I solo mostly due to time constraints. I also like a rather complicated class. So... does a wizard or necromancer best fit my description?

well it depends. neks got the pets and dot power, but wizards if u want true kick ... power and great master 2 spells to destroy everything wizards r for u. all depends on ur style really. of course right now the pets aernt tanking that well with buffs gone and such. id say wizard is sure fire bet

I have both, and if you want to solo, go for Necro, easy, fast xp on yellow mobs :smileyhappy:

necros can throw in a heal now which is nice. their roots are terrrible but pets take aggro. eat away at mobs with dots. wiz's better roots (still?) and big nukes.

If you're into bringing stuff to groups, I'd go with Wizard. Your insane damage will cause the damage to go so much quicker they'll all love you.
