overall, i think you should get a little bit of all skills...but as for the main nukes use ice and fire. Earth nuke has to be casted from a short distance. Fire and Ice you can cast from farther back.

Second nuke earth is one of the best out there.. same casting distance as fire but AoE ...

Earth + Ice, Earth can 1 hit PomPom The Ice on Xian (Full Sosun Gear, +Blade + Shield ), Earth and ice become strongest at the highest levels, check %'s.

Get the first book of ice and fire, to start out with.

When you get to level 20, definitely get the third book of earth and ice(the third book of fire is optional.)

Ice is definitly a must, the freezing/frosbite really helps to stay alive.

But like some other says, the best is to up the 4 forces, each got really useful skills that combined makes the perfect wiz.

If you dont want to farm much SP, then what i'll do is just skip the sub mastery, and just focus on Wiz one.

you really need all 4, I have all 4 at lvl 76 mastery right now, and Fire is a must, fire meteor is your strongest hit out of all of them at 439%, plus each skill has useful skills, Ice has invisivle and mana drain, fire has lava trap and sprawl detect, earth has root and earth fence, lighting has fear and teleport along with KB skills, and depending on the situation you need them all.

Get them all, you are a powerhouse of damage. You should never have to pause between castings. So while one is cooling down cast another, while that’s cooling down cast the next.
Flame thrower is excellent against giants and party mobs.
You SHOULDN’T have to worry about dying when using it if you have a decent party. Solo play is adifferent story. If you wanna solo play, wizard is not the way to go.
Wizards are fun, but only when used right and in a party. Cause after level 24-5 you really start to feel the pain in solo grinding.

Fire blow is nice for pvp > meteor+fire blow, always a kill if you're on life control.

Take all 4.

Fire Bolt+Ice bolt for fast grinding(When one finishes casting, the other's CD is over)

And Earth+Ice AoE nukes for green AoE grinding.

Lightning isn't really usefull tbh, so leave that untill you get higher, or after you farmed.

Lighting is the best wiz tree hands down - you get fear, kb, tele, and without these skills you will struggle vs mobs in pvp.

Fire is the strongest
Earth is the best AOE for defense and attack
Cold is needed for cloak and pot drain, but is technically not needed for attack if anything it would be the last to max.
