Sorry, I meant to say "For Aiming purposes."

Exactly. Might as well go all INT for your free-stat, cause at least you get bonus m.dmg which really does help. END? puny bonus to defence, uhh 5 HP per point I think? and block rate-not helpful at all. I'd say, as a mage you'll just have to rely on good gear and stuffiez with +END for END. Cause even if you had END in free-stat, you'd still be squishy, just as you said, and would have to look for more END in your equips anyway. So yeah. That's just me though. :D

in the end, mages are squishy. no point trying to dodge that. I find that Mages with end are the people playing chess, moving their knight around to try and find a safe way to eat the pawn without getting owned by the rook... in the end, 150 end as a full end warlock is 650hp=1/4 of a monster hit, 125 def, pathetic at that lev, and 5% block rate... aoe pt = 100 monsters after u = 95 hits... ouch

Well I would say that 1:1 int/dex would be a good build with high end/int/spr/dex, any would work. my wiz can aoe pretty well w/o a party :D

My staff has a 8% base crit and with liscence it hasso far 10%

My wizz's hp atm is only 7k with extender obviously :D, that's really all i can say i guess 1:1 dex/int is pretty awsome too. pure int is a monster but with ugly aim tho. Thats how i actually came up with 1:1 dex/int ^^

Solution to ugly aim is not dex build.
The correct solution is high dex gears and Aim scroll.

Yea all my gears have 40+ dex on them, i dont really use scrolls only cleric buffs.

i've got pretty high aim and evasion any how. I'm happy with my build :angel:

for pvp with a mage i would suggest to go wizard with a staff. with this build by endgame: 25 end 60spr then decide on int or dex. mages do magic dmg in the first place so fighters and archer wont live long. the main threat would be another mage which the build i listed should help slightly.

if u have sc then dont add 25 spr just go full int :) max damage

Because end in a mage is useless (y) you should have went with dex why?

fighter full end> getting hit 500 per hit every attack hits..... 5k every 10 hits
fighter end/dex> 550> only hit 8 times though >4400 o.o

so sent onto a mage same rule kinda of applies~

I would advice you to remove your end and invest into dex/spr/int.....

my mage can tank a BB, uncharmed, purely because they never hit me ditto for phouches and any other high leval mobs ;3

dex is amazing *-*

i am considering changing my mage to 33 dex full int dunno yet though :/ just for moar eva xD

o and end/dex armour :D my wizzy has 8.5k~9k base hp with an extender o.o'' and 1k~1.1k eva still using my 95 set need my 100 ln ;(

and its base defence is 2k~2.5k depending if i wear gt rings or not :3 can make it hit 7k *O*
