Bright Wizard Tips
« on: September 22, 2008, 10:03:42 AM »
Going to post a few, and hopefully get others posting as I level Burnavir. Totally enjoying the class, even after being led to believe it was the glass part of a glass cannon!

So tips:

[spell]Sear[/spell]: Is your friend. Builds combustion FAST, which lets you drop high levelled mobs often times before they get to you.

Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take away from them the power to create money and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But, if you wish to remain the slaves of bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create money." Josiah Stamp (Governor Bank of England 1928-41)

I find i use scorched earth (short range AOE centered on caster, L10) to build my combustion a lot. 20 a cast and you don't need a target so you can build it up before you pile into combat.

Yes, you occasionally blow up but just burn it off occasionally using meltdown. The damage bonus at 70+ combustion is awesome and well worth the effort.

When doing MT scenario with Darn (lvl 17 BW i think) he almost needed a dedicated healer to keep him alive   :|

...is pretty much the #1 tip for Bright Wizards: stick close to the healers. We can't tank for them, but kill everything that comes close to them. BWs are incredibly support-dependant, but do amazing damage when when they have that support. Learn to love combustion, and keep it up - Sear is an ok tool for doing this when you want to put some hurt on the enemy at the same time, but most of the time it's all about Scorched Earth. Your DoTs are not fire and forget - you'll need high combustion if you want them to crit-tic.
