From experience, Geos are best as we speak, Necros, Wizards and the well..beguilers. lmao If you are unable to kill either of the 2 latter, you should probs give up PVP.

Not sure what changes have really occured over the last week - however playing as a wizard for a long time I know for a fact that wizards were weakest when I last played.

I got soloed by a ranger - without a problem due to power bows being in the game. (I didn't even get a hit off, HA)
I've been soloed by most healer classes - cleric in particular. I have no hope in a maxed duel - that class has a high basic attack and a really large ammount of GREAT skills.
necromancer - It's hard to win against, but possible.
geomancer - dead on sight, unless they use fireshield (was that removed?)
dreadknights and paladins - Death unless you are sitting ontop of a mountain with a large ammount of reagents
2v1s - no hope for wizards ):

Wizards are too weak to be favorable in pvp - the main good skill now (BLINK) for me was nerfed hard once one person complained about it. (it now has a 6 second cooldown , breaks run, and usually blinks you INTO blocks, which means death.)

not sure if this is too relevant, but I suppose a person who has played wizard since mid-zeal should have an opinion.

I think Wizards are pretty nerfed and easy to kill, if you can't kill one, you suck, sorry to say. :I
I have to strongly disagree with this statement, wizards can still kill any class, it's a matter of whether or not the wizard knows what he is doing and if he knows how to play against certain classes.

Think of it reverse, and my statement would probably be understandable if you had actually been a wizard. Like a FORCEPUSH or a FORCEPULL from a disciple would do like 3 hearts while it does like a heart to other classes. You wouldn't really understand what I mean until you have actually been a wizard.

Wizards only good move really is bolt otherwise it is bad, it has a pretty long cooldown and it CAN be dodged. Fireball is just your job to dodge and it has a pretty decent cooldown, blink got nerfed i heard so it has lower range. Wizard is really only good for money and getting around places, they would very rarely get kills or win in a 1v1.

Maxo even agreed to saying wizard is a bad class, I remember. Aburido, if you want to say anything further about wizards become one first.

Wizard's are high in utility - no other class in the game have the ability to teleport others to them and transport around the map.
Yeah but in fighting wise they are not the best class, they are viewed as a money making transportation class now.

Thats how I've always viewed them. It's the main reason I became a wizard after trying more PvP Based classes.

Jbird rating my post of wizards being weak disagree? Last I checked I saw jbird getting owned a lot as a caster trying to solo raid.
