Screwed?

I currently have a lvl 20 warlock and a lvl 21 wiz/bard. The warlock is pure int and the wiz is 1:2 hybrid. I was wondering which character to continue, as their playstyle is pretty same for me. Although imo warlock is slow lvler. My friend advised me to stick with warlock as wizzard cant be 1:2. Is this true?

And what should I keep playing?

Between those two characters, you should definitely go with the Warlock.

But, my warlock is pure int, and I have seen how warlock grind and get mobbed very easily. Would this be a problem later lvls?

Warlocks need lots of sp, I quit my lvl 67 warlock for 2 reasons, the server it was on and just the fact that it gets annoying having so many skills and not enough bars to fit them all in to where you can click em alltogether.

as you get higher you'll get better skills for the warlock, and if its sub bard things like noise and moving march should stop you from getting mobbed if you keep moving,
and sub cleric you'll get recovery division and bless meaning getting mobbed won't be that big of a deal then

Thank you for your input. Would warlock be alright as a solo class? I was think of it since of the high sp cost the warlock by it self. Farming with warlock isnt exactly efficient eother. :?

i havn't seen any serious wizard hybrids, hybrid is ok on locks a little because the sheild and debuffs. Wizards don't really get enough hp from going hybrid to make up for the lower attack, they have no shied or any defense skills to speak off (earth barrier excluded because its only 20 seconds). The wizard relies on its shear power to win fights, its skills don't compensate for it well enough to get rid of that.

My wizard is 21 atm, would it be fine if I was to go pure int from now on? Since I want a fast lvling character. 8)

You could continue with the wizard, it has plenty of power, but in PvP you're more likely to lose.

Warlock is ok solo but you really need a sub. Cleric is great for recovery division, bless, bard is good for noise/moving march.

Just keep good gear and a shield with a good BR, you should be ok.

you're on the wrong server then, come to venus and you'll be welcome as a lock, other servers are just retarded like that, becuase they dont' understand 3 wizards and a 1 warlock is more dmg then 4 wizards even if 1 wizard out damages a warlock.
The dot skills let the whole party get besrk faster plus your debuffs

Sylus, your characters are low level, I say you should either restart, or keep on with the warlock. If you are going wizard, go pure int. There is almost no point at all in going hybrid with a wizard. Hybridizing is useful only for warlocks or chineses.

That's normal.

I think you meant HP?

In fact, only a very few skills are not useful for a INT warlock (I guess something like 4 skills?). The SP requirement would change by a very little amount (compared to the total) if you didn't take those useless skills.
