Post Your Wizard Spell Ideas... - Page 2

I'm trying to figure out the difference between spectral scythe and spectral blade. But, agreed, the ice wall sounds great. No, not great, make that essential!|||im slightly annoyed that the tornado is basiclly the same as the druids. i mean you would think they could make it a bit more, big tornado like a real one instead of some small glowy thing that moves around, im talking like a tornado that looks fairly real. its really annoying actually.

i love tornados in real life and to see the wizard only be able to cast some small thing i find quite offensive, i mean she is meant to be uber. yano can do stuff that others wouldnt dream of and they give her that. and its a high tier spell.

i want some uber storm spell that does great damage, or not even that much damage but has a great visual. anyone agree.

i definateely think the wizard needs a wall spell but the doc has one so i doubt she will. and not tier 5 anyway wouldnt be good enough.

an arcane wall would be good but i dunno what animation it could be. same for conjuring spell wall.

a wall that had ice flying up from the floor in an arc would be good. like frozen rain but upwards.

i noticed something else aswell.

1. the rock armor looks awsome in the gameplay vid, and 2. someone comented that disintergrate looked like a fire spell.

and bashiok replied it isnt and the wizard had no fire.

then what does the hydra fire.|||Quote:

Here's a quote from Bashiok when a fan was upset with the Wizard's lack of fire:

"If she were to use fire, she wouldn't do it in such a pedestrian way as to literally conjure it herself. She'd want to make it a bit more challenging."

So our wizard is never going to be conjuring fire balls out of her hands. But summoning a fire-breathing hydra is a bit more indirect, so that's why it's in there.|||Quote:








i would like to see a spectral scythe , where she generates a purple scythe from her hand, but its sort of attached to her hand if that makes sense.

not a whole scythe. just part on her hand and then the hooked blade a bit further down.






I choose you!|||sort of like that but a longer shaft.|||Quote:

That's what she said.|||Instead of scythes on her hands make the wizard conjure scythes (or other weapons) that attack on their own. They will be summoned creatures for the wizard. They should do quite a bit of damage but not be very durable. A bit like the flying scimitars in D2.|||Big tornado would block too much of your view.|||Swap

Swaps player's position with targeted Swappable item/unit. Why hello over there!

Getting beat by a monster? Swap yourself with the groups armored melee! That old crazy wd geezer is about to die from a huge monster? Swap the monster with yourself! A pesky boss hiding among his minions? Swap him out with yourself and level those minions, than it's One on One time!

Devilishly fun AND useful, but most of all, it's incredibly cocky.|||I'd like to see an improvement of Mirror Image:

Instead of just summon a Wiz to your aid, why not create a replica of yourself for the last XX seconds. Meaning, that Mirror Image will do exactly what you did in that period of time. For example, if you cast Blizzard on a certain area and then Teleported twice North, she will do exactly the same.

This can be a very cool, original and most of all- FUN idea, but I guess it pretty hard to actually make.
