Wizard is a class in Pillars of Eternity 2. Men and women of high education and extreme mental discipline, if not always outright intelligence. They use grimoires to cast difficult and powerful spells, that can damage many enemies or buff a single ally.
"The masters of academic magic, wizards are students of arcane traditions that stretch back beyond the boundaries of recorded history. Wizards are a highly organized group, often forming academies or guilds devoted to research and development in magical studies, and tend to favor environments where inquiry, experimentation, debate, and the dissemination of knowledge are encouraged. Many accomplished wizards eventually become known for their eccentricity, their egos, and their unquenchable interest in all things arcane and occult."
Wizard Tips & Builds
- A full list of builds for all classes can be found on the Builds page.
- Wizards are locked out of certain schools of magic by selecting a Subclass, so don't take one unless you know which spells you want, and which you can live without.
- Wizards can Multiclass effectively with martial Classes, because many of their Enchanting spells cast in 0.4s, which is nearly instant.
- Wizards can find and equip Grimoires to gain temporary access to spells they have not learned. They cannot, however, use spells found in a Grimoire if they can't cast spells from the school it belongs to.
- Intellect is extremely important to Wizards because of the Duration of their abilities.
