==Description==

[[Wizard|Wizards]] in Dark and Darker are powerful spellcasters, who use their knowledge of arcane magic to bend reality to their will. They can cast a wide variety of spells, ranging from destructive blasts of fire to complex arcane and frost spells. Wizards can also create magical barriers protecting themselves from harm. However, their powers come at a cost - wizards need to meditate and prepare their spells in advance, making them vulnerable to surprise attacks and ambushes.

==Class Info==
<br>
'''Weapon of choice:''' Wizard Staff or Spellbook.

*Pros
**Access to powerful spells that allow for a versatile play style.
**High single and multi target magic damage output.
**Access to utility spells that can slow down enemies or reveal those who are Invisible.
**Can apply several powerful buffs to themselves or to teammates, increasing damage, movement speed, and providing Invisibility.
**High Magical Interaction Speed, allowing for fast shrine usage and portal opening.
*Cons
**Beginner unfriendly. Spell system is unintuitive to learn, and mistakes are heavily punished.
**Very low physical damage and limited melee options.
**Poor movement speed if not buffed. Movement speed is also lowered further during casting.
**Lowest health in the game, with poor armor options.
**Limited by the amount of available spell casts. Common restoration methods are Resting or Meditation, both of which leave the Wizard vulnerable and generate a lot of downtime.

The order in which you select spells will determine their Spell Memory Priority. You can right click spells to "forget" them, and you must drag and drop a spell to memorize it. Spell tiers determine their spell memory cost.

Wizard has default 8 meters range on their spells unless it is a projectile (Magic Missile, Light, Fireball, Ice Bolt)

- Use Meditation wisely. It will force your perspective downwards and lock your camera, as well as apply an audio filter to make it more difficult to hear enemies approaching. Try to Meditate on elevated surfaces to increase your field of view.

- Fireball can be used to destroy doors, and its splash damage can hurt enemies on the other side.

- Chain Lightning will use corpses as "hopping" points. Use this to your advantage to hit enemies around corners.

- Light Orb will reveal enemy Rogues, preventing ambushes.

- Use Invisibility to get out of sticky situations and re-position. You can use the Haste ability beforehand to further boost your movement speed.

- You can use Clarity Potions, Campfires, or a Bard on your team to replenish spells, allowing you to forgo Meditation in favor of another Skill.

- Zap and Ignite burns will not tick if your target has any debuff duration - this is all classes with 16+ Will by default. If you want either to do burn damage, you need to run Fire Mastery which causes it to tick 2 times on these targets. This results in a functional 33% "scaling".

Tanduras: Added a tip describing 1 tick DoT interactions with debuff duration - Specifically to take FM if you want Zap to burn consistently.

==Description==

[[Wizard|Wizards]] in Dark and Darker are powerful spellcasters, who use their knowledge of arcane magic to bend reality to their will. They can cast a wide variety of spells, ranging from destructive blasts of fire to complex arcane and frost spells. Wizards can also create magical barriers protecting themselves from harm. However, their powers come at a cost - wizards need to meditate and prepare their spells in advance, making them vulnerable to surprise attacks and ambushes.

==Class Info==
<br>
'''Weapon of choice:''' Wizard Staff or Spellbook.

*Pros
**Access to powerful spells that allow for a versatile play style.
**High single and multi target magic damage output.
**Access to utility spells that can slow down enemies or reveal those who are Invisible.
**Can apply several powerful buffs to themselves or to teammates, increasing damage, movement speed, and providing Invisibility.
**High Magical Interaction Speed, allowing for fast shrine usage and portal opening.
*Cons
**Beginner unfriendly. Spell system is unintuitive to learn, and mistakes are heavily punished.
**Very low physical damage and limited melee options.
**Poor movement speed if not buffed. Movement speed is also lowered further during casting.
**Lowest health in the game, with poor armor options.
**Limited by the amount of available spell casts. Common restoration methods are Resting or Meditation, both of which leave the Wizard vulnerable and generate a lot of downtime.

- Use Meditation wisely. It will force your perspective downwards and lock your camera, as well as apply an audio filter to make it more difficult to hear enemies approaching. Try to Meditate on elevated surfaces to increase your field of view.

- Fireball can be used to destroy doors, and its splash damage can hurt enemies on the other side.

- Chain Lightning will use corpses as "hopping" points. Use this to your advantage to hit enemies around corners.

- Light Orb will reveal enemy Rogues, preventing ambushes.

- Use Invisibility to get out of sticky situations and re-position. You can use the Haste ability beforehand to further boost your movement speed.

- You can use Clarity Potions, Campfires, or a Bard on your team to replenish spells, allowing you to forgo Meditation in favor of another Skill.

- Zap's burn will not tick if your target has any debuff duration - this is all classes with 16+ Will by default. If you want Zap to burn it's recommended you take Fire Mastery for it to tick 2 times on these targets, so the DoT will get a functional 33% scaling.
