1) moc
2) purge - dispels all negative effects on your character and activates your immunity to them
3) vp - instant ae bolt

mota = mastery of the art (not arcane) - faster casting
wp = wild power - more crits
mom = mastery of magery - higher damage on nukes


get those after moc and purge (and volcanic pillar next patch)

edit: I'd also suggest some Longwind - you're going to spend a lot of time just running away from people intent on hacking you to bits.

Is VP really worth it? Or only when you're RR8 or something?!

i thought VP was only good for fire wizzys ?

also:

Mystic Crystal Lore - Active 5 min. Self-only boost to power, not usable in combat.

sounds good

VP gets a huge boost next patch, so it will be worthwhile to get until they nerf it....

MCL- err isnt this like a standard RA that every caster gets by default? :p Like your trainer tells you: No RAs for you until you buy MCL!

Yes MCL first :p

I have mota3 (quicker cast time) on my sorc, and its noticeably quicker, even better for a pbaoer or dd-er. Also i did have wp3, and the crits are very nice and make a big difference in your damage output, especially when you pbaoe many targets at once, wp3 you are gonna critical hit on a few..

I think you can live without aug dex, aug con, tough etcetc. Many people suggest to get more con or hits because casters are generally low in that area.. but aug con and toughness only add about another 60hp to your health, and i cannot remember the last time i said 'Darnit, if only i had anohter 60hp i would have lived...'.. Id rather do an extra 300dmg or so to the enemy than have 60 extra hitpoints.


Longwind is nice (did have that at one point too.. too many RA pts on my sorc to spend :p) but i think you can make due with end regen potions or if you have a pally in your grp you dont need it so much.

Anyways, try out rvr, see how your power does, range dding kicks the crap out of my ice wizzies power bar ;/ so the harder you hit and the quicker you kill the better off you are. As a wizard you have given up utility for the dmg dealing capacity. So imo at least, get the RAs that maximize this potential of dmg dealing.

See you on the battlefield :)

If you always run with level 35-enhance dex buff (which I do ;) )... Then I wouldnt go further then MoArt 2 ... MoArt 3 is useless... (and first 2 are cheap, the cost of MoArt3 is better spend elsewhere)

With 281 dex I cast at 1.5s (PBAoE / Base-DD)... So it would only really affect your Snare-DD / Debuff-DD... But not by much and both arent your primary nuke either...

1) MCL (no brainer ;))
2) MoC
3) Purge
4) Some passives (MoM / WP is nice, so is AoM)
5) VP

I've currently got:
MCL, MoC, MoM2, WP2, AoM1, Toughness1, Aug.Con1, Aug.Acuity3, Purge, VP, MoArt2

And I'm very happy with it... I think I would have gone for VP sooner though, if you drive a lot (like I do)... Its perfect for interrupting those 'amnesia bards' (spam amnesia, and then they long-duration mez you)... They amnesia you, you VP them, and then your sorc can QC-Mez...

Dont be fooled, damage done by VP (atm) is pure and utter crap...

Next on my list is probably MCL2... As I run OOP so often its not even funny... But I'm not sure if I'd make it that far (need 600k rps for that)...

(on a sorc MoArt3 might be usefull because the ae-mez is 3s cast time)

Nice tips, mi n00b pboer just took notes of em ;)
Although, im planning to get Purge, MCL n AugAquity with my first rps, untill i got enuff to get MoC by realm respeccing (3L4). After that, Purge, MCL and the passives.

Another topic:
Yesterday nite i took some logs of real rvr fights to compare baseline DD n snare DD (both deal the same damage but baseline is 0.5 sec faster in casting time), n i was surprised, baseline did around 50 less damage over the same target than snare specc one. Need to test it more neways........

mcl1 is a must, I myself will never take mcl2, but some people swear by it.

MCL is very very good. Or maybe get bounty stones. I need to go pick up some more of those. MOCing and then going OOP halfway through is very annoying. :/

I'm always OOP because our sorc doesn't like to give people PoT. :p ~cough~

The answer to your question was to go away and look at the RA lists.

Point me to where you can find IP on the Wizard list.


edit: And yes, I gave you the lists in my previous post (which was telling you to go away and read the descriptions of what they did)... But apparently you didn't.
