I have a 42 wiz and he went clash path. IMO, I like clash better than power. My lvl 20 path still does more than my 29 or 34 spells.

But a lot of my wizzy friends are power path. they always talk about never running out of power but I too never runn oom. For Mcs there is Sorc and channeler. I my self am goin sorc. You get 3 low range aoe's. they are good for raids. Im not to sure about channler though, i dont know a lot of wizzies that went channler. hope this helps.

Path depends on what you want, one is a low aggro nuke, the other path increases your total power and gives you the same amount back.


For MC's sorceror gives a choice of 3 elemental spells. Chaneller gives a quick cast high damage AR nuke and a damaging root. Sage gives a pot buff and a reduced damage buff. Then there are racials, eru and gnomes have very good racial MC's for wizzies.

so if u pick the nuke path or w/e will u go oom often?
#6 Jun 22 2005 at 2:27 PM Rating: Decent
It has a long recast so using the nuke wont make u go oom.
Power path gives you a little power thats all.

I have said this before and apparently I will say it again. Clash is the only path worth taking. Why is that you ask? Its simple power path is easy to replicate with gear that gives you pow max and PoT. What clash gives you is something you will never be able to do with Pow path. It gives you the ability to solo by rooting mobs and summoning your familiar. Notice that little HP buff the familiar casts on you? It draws more aggro then a clash nuke. Making your little mainly useless familiar a flying meat shield. Right b4 your pet dies root, use the the basic clash spell(the one that just removes aggro and is not a nuke/clash) resummon your pet wait for the HP buff to draw aggro towards familiar and let go with the Clash nukes. If timed properly you can force your pet to take crits, DoT's, and nukes for you as well meaning you will take no, thats right no damage.
Lets see you do that with Power path.


I cant believe Im quoting myself =)

Go clash you wont regret it. Power is easy to come by with Pow Max gear and PoT gear.

And what is clash going to do, it just provides damage at a higher power cost. It really only allows a bit of aggro control, which a wizzy already have spells to do. Both paths are equal, it is about play style.

Umm it allows you to solo without taking damage. You wil vener use these spells ina group. They are too pricey manawise and damage output isnt as good as your regular spell lines. However like I said it will allow you to solo which you cannot do as a pow wiz.

Also if you make an erud wiz you can take the boat to odus and from odus to fp so it is like making a fp human.

Power wizzies can solo as well, it may take longer but rooting and the clash line of spells can do it as well.

I went clash path up to epic and then went mana. This way I have 3 low mana costing, low aggro, elemental nukes that do around 1200 dmg depending on the mobs resists and I have a better way to gain mana back without drinks. I'm working on getting the 51 cm ability and then I will use the cm ability to get my epic spell to clash instead of the mana.

I'm planning Sorcerer MC.

good choice - now for the trick on how to solo without getting hit. You need the following spells mem'd and on the toolbar: your highest Path Clash spell, your highest Clash (nonnuke) spell, your highest arcane binding, your highest pet.

1. Find a mob that you can body pull or is not linked to others. Not linked being the prefered method. If they are not linked move to step 3.
2. Train your familiar by body pulling the mob.
3. Root the mob.
4. Dismiss and resummon pet (as the pet gives casts enhance body on you it heals you the same number of hp it gives you)and wait for it to heal you. As it HP buffs it draws aggro you will notice the mob turn to face the familiar.
5. Let loose with only your clash path spells as it will continue to hurt your pet while using path nukes.
6. When your pet is almost dead reroot and dismiss pet.
7. Use the nonnuke clash spell(stupor)to remove any excess aggro.
8.Go to step 4.

With practice you will not get hit, and you should be able to solo anything that it is tank or melee class. When soloing casters you really need to know what resists you need as they can nuke while rooted.
