So I'm respeccing my wizard to melee

[CorNokZ]

Yeah, you heard me! Melee! Think about it.. Wizards actually have great potential of being a good hybrid caster/tank

• Nice rr5
• QC root for running away to heal
• CoZ for power into health
• CL styles
• PD5

And the list could go on! All I need now is a decent template and someone to buff me

No stun might be a problem, but I think it'll be a laugh and I'm gonna try it out

 

[CorNokZ]

Forgot eb, brittle guard and NS

I won't be planning to nuke at all, but all other spells, such as snare, root and NS is perfectly fine

 

[Manisch Depressiv]

Hmm, I am not sure if a CL weapon works with strength or still dexterity, you'd be prolly best off with a thrust weapon.

I'll see if I can make some template over the weekend.

hahahahahah smt new i like it lol

Think the thing that fucks it up a a bit, as the damage on anything but a staff is stupidly low. Best weapon for a caster speccing melee is still a staff. You hit for like 20 or someshit with a 1h CL weapon equipped. Puppethealer was moaning about this on his NS, the weaponskill is almost nothing on on these weapons whatever your stats are, it's just fluff. Remember him going on he was pa'ing for something stupid like 50 with blunts equipped.

MoP5 and adrenaline rush should be funny. Get a matter leggie staff and use the ns debuff on inc .

Exactly what I was thinking! There are some good oppertunities

You think I'm trying to fool you? I'm not.. I've been pd5 before with some silly mop4 or something! Almost got Netcode on his hunter with my rr5! Have to say that he didn't use any styles tho

Don't forget toughness.

And i tend to agree with manisch.

You should use a 1-hand thrusty. ( With a DoT proc )
And then a small shield.
Now your block rate will ofc be something like 2.4%, but its better than nothing.

The cl parry buff and dmg add is also good to have.

 

[Manisch Depressiv]

If the damage with the CL is really so bad, than there is no point using anything than stuff as it's 100% dex based damage and you can make an easier template.

 

[Zerubiel Propane]

Get WH aswell, if you can.
And Spear of kings for the hp buff.

Loads of options.. i still think you will get pwned in melee tho

However it sounds funny.


Actually i think i will go try it on my server.

 

[CorNokZ]

Can't get WH nor SoK..

Also why would I want to get the CL dmg add when I have baseline dmg add?

 

[Zerubiel Propane]

Yeah, i didn't think while i wrote.. noticed it when it was too late

 

[Lethul]

theurg > wiz!

i actually actually killed a certain paladin in duel, i was buffed and he unbuffed tho with redpbt, red asd, eb/haste

 

[CorNokZ]

I happen to have a 8l5 wizard and a 48 theurg..
