Stick with those 3. You should be able to max all 3 by 60, personally I dont think anything else would really do any good.

Raise stats like this in this order IMO:

-Pump Dex 'til max. Buy many max raisers
-Pump Intel 'til max. Buy good amount of max raisers.
-Pump Stam 'til max. Buy no max raisers.

This would be a good way to go, and a wizard i would want to group with.

Actaully this is the way I built my wizard, well except I switched int and dex around. I actually regret that decision now that he is lv40. When I draw aggro which is often I die quick. I would build stamina, with your other stats. Just a suggestion, you will get the stamina at some point in time, but by building it earlier it can avoid some unnecisary debt, just my opinion.

My advise is a little different. Pump int until 20, or atleast keep even with dex, this way you can keep your damage lower until tanks get their second taunt at 24. Int is better for power then dex and you should get a good base this way. Then at 20 you can focus on getting your damage up so that it is caught up to your power by the time the tank gets provoke, but I like to live so this is my preference.

A few other things pay attention to your type of spells, you have 4 damage types sustained/blast/nuke/aoe. What ever you do dont open up your attacks in a group with your nukes, they are the massive damage spells that have the 3 minute recharge, casting them before the mob is half dead in groups can get you killed. Aoes I find are a waste unless you are farming greens.

And before you ask there is no 17 arcane bonds, that is the lvl 23 mages qst spell. But wizzies do get a few more roots in the 45+ game.

Ive said thiss b4 and Ill say it again - dont touch sta untill level 30ish. and the wiz arcane fortitude cms are great for increasing sta after you get it to 100. Also but the veteran Wiz cms as they add both dex, sta, and hp - everything a growing wiz needs

Its too hard for me to xp with low sta, especially with amount of tanks that can't hold aggro..

With WIzzies in the group, it's not *always* the tanks fault they can't hold aggro. See, some Wizzies try and see just how much damage they can do, therefore gaining aggro easily. If a Wizzy was smart, they would change to their medium damage nukes, and then everybody would be happy.

Agreed Kas.
Medium Nukes = No Battery
Highest Nukes = Battery

For two reasons:
Tank has more mana to taunt.
Wizards have more mana to use highest nukes.

Yea Kas, your right. I don't use my highest nukes in groups..I have my low, medium, and high out so I can use either when I need it.

So are you saying I shouldn't add sta for now?

I have no clue, of all the classes, Wizzies I know little to nothing about. Infact, I would venture to say they're my least favorite class.

My enchanter is fun. I enjoy chaincasting without worrying about OOM. I also get many groups.
I also like my warrior.
I like Mana the most. Mana is fun!

yeah wizzies usually will pull and laugh about it.. if they would just wait til the mob is over half way dead to use thier big nukes then they would live longer...

Ok my Wizzy is going bye bye..

I should probably make a tank or a healer since I already have 2 DD's...or maybe I'll just wait till I get Sop and Dem into the 30s before I see if I need another toon to fool around with..
