== Key Wizard Items ==
Items in this category provide strong and unique benefits (beyond just stats) for a [[Wizard]].

=== Notable Weapons ===

As casters (who rarely melee) [[Wizard]]s are less concerned with their primary slot item than many classes. However, there are a few weapons worth mentioning for [[Wizard]]s:

<table class="eoTable3 wikitable">
<tr>
<th>Item(s)</th>
<th>(Rough) Cost</th>
<th>Notes</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>{{:Smoldering Brand}}</td>
<td>200</td>
<td>A great starting weapon for [[Wizard]]s, because it procs a (very small) direct damage spell, even at level 1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>{{:Velium Crystal Staff}}</td>
<td>15,000</td>
<td>Another great starting weapon for [[Wizard]] twinks, because it procs a significant direct damage spell, even at level 1. At higher levels it can be slightly useful in cleaning up low HP mobs after a quad kite.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>{{:Staff of Temperate Flux}}</td>
<td>[[Staff of Temperate Flux Quest|quested]] (L30+)</td>
<td>The right-click effect of this weapon is amazing for [[Wizard]]s who quad kite, both because it lowers resists, but (more importantly) because it is instant-cast and the same distance as quad kiting spells (so it serves as a "range finder" when quad kiting)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>{{:Staff of the Four}}</td>
<td>[[Wizard Epic Quest|quested]]</td>
<td>The [[Wizard]] epic weapon: in addition to great stats and a very good ratio, it offers a right-click effect that absorbs up to 800 damage and increases mana regen by 3/tick.</td>
</tr>

=== Notable Wizard-Specific Items ===
<table class="eoTable3 wikitable">
<tr>
<th>Item(s)</th>
<th>(Rough) Cost</th>
<th>Notes</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>{{:Solist's Icy Wand}}</td>
<td></td>
<td>This item offers mana-free direct damage: at lower levels you can kill with just it and [[Root]] and at later levels it can help cleaning up at the end of quad kites.</td>
</tr>

=== Notable Non-Druid-Specific Items ===
<table class="eoTable3 wikitable">
<tr>
<th>Item(s)</th>
<th>(Rough) Cost</th>
<th>Notes</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>{{:Journeyman's Boots}}</td>
<td>~Quested (MQ 5kp)</td>
<td>While this item is great for any class without [[Spirit of the Wolf|SoW]], it is essential for quad-kiting (without using potions).</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>{{:Pegasus Feather Cloak}}</td>
<td>Quested</td>
<td>Mana-free (and {{:Bat Wing}}-free) [[Levitate]] (very useful in quad kiting near water or mountainous terrain)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>{{:Kromzek Surveyor Scope}}</td>
<td>70</td>
<td rowspan="3">Provides an instant-click effect ([[Telescope]]), which allows for [[Advanced_Techniques_Guide#Resetting_Spell_Refresh_Timers_With_Instant-Click_Items | faster re-casts]] ... with a slightly annoying "zoom" side effect</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>{{:Spyglass}}</td>
<td>? ([[Tinkering|Tinker]]-made)</td>
<tr>
<td>{{:Telescopic Eyepatch}}</td>
<td>? ([[Tinkering|Tinker]]-made)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>{{:Shrunken Goblin Skull Earring}}</td>
<td>1-2k</td>
<td>Provides instant-click [[Grim Aura]], which allows for [[Advanced_Techniques_Guide#Resetting_Spell_Refresh_Timers_With_Instant-Click_Items | faster re-casts]]</td>
</tr>

== Twinking a Wizard ==

=== Level 1+===
Wizards don't really need twinking to get through the earliest levels, but a melee weapon with a proc ({{:Smoldering Brand}} or {{:Velium Crystal Staff}}) will make them go by faster. Also, a pet-summoning item like {{:Brazier of Elemental Summoning}} or {{:Red Dragon Tooth}} can also help a Wizard burn through the lowest levels.

Extremely rich players may wish to purchase {{:Zlandicar's Heart}} and/or a {{:Mana Robe}} to speed up recovery.

=== Level 12 ===

At level 12 {{:Solist's Icy Wand}} can be used, and it's very useful both immediately (to kill mobs with just it and [[Root]]) and later on, to clean up quad kites (when you are low on mana, but the mobs have a few HP remaining).

=== Quad-Kiting (Level 12+) ===

Wizards can start quad-kiting as early as 12, but a {{:Journeyman's Boots}} (or a lot of {{:Blood of Wolf}} potions) are needed to do so. Also, quad-kiting requires a large mana pool, so lots of +Mana gear (or +Intelligence gear, but at lower levels +Mana gear offers more mana) is recommended.</div>

=== Level 20 ===
At 20 Wizards can start using the {{:Staff of Temperate Flux}}, which is NO DROP, but can be multi-quested by a higher-level character. This item can be used both to pull quad kite targets (instantly, while lowering their resistance at the same time), and while quad kiting, to assess the range of the mobs being kited. Because the staff has the same range as the quad-nuke spells, and is instant cast, it can be pressed repeatedly while kiting: the moment it is out of range the Wizard knows they can safely cast a quad-nuke.
