Wizard or rogue

Post by nightwarrior »

Hello,

What should I take, cause I already made 5 accs and I can't decide.
Wizards hit high but they die instant.
Rogues hit low and they also die :S0.

What at later levels?

Just take whichever you like best. Play them both up to lvl 10 or so...You'll get there in about 1 hour but you get a pretty decent idea which you like, at least I did ;-)

Ps. Don't expect a rogue to be able to tank, cause he can't. Yeah, with bless spell and no dagger desperate or xbow xtreme, but then he hits very low.

(I'm lvl 29 rogue with cleric sub)

I say rogue.

Basically, an full str rogue on Crossbow Extreme deals about 80% the damage as a full int wizard without Life Control at the same level. The damage is even higher with Dagger but that is melee so not a fair comparision.

A full int wiz have no chance ever of using Life Control because that will be sucide. He also do not critical on his nukes.

Why can't a wiz use Life Control? Since he's already dead in 1 shot, he can better try to overkill the opponent before the opponent hits him.

Well, at least vs some characters. Against pure str blader it wouldn't be wise to use it, but against, let's say a rogue...

Rogues are cool because they don't need Noise (as much as Wizards do if either have to tank).

Wizards have cool AoE to smite several monsters at once. Mobbing monsters three or four levels below; it's like killing party monsters your level faster, as long as you keep moving.
