dont you think its about time to make new armor to inprove upon all wizards my last armor upgrade was level 58 unless i buy armor from crown shop and then only one is any good for armor upgrade. being level 83 and the armor to by at the bazaar is 82 and it stinks for armor. other areas of armor are at my level i have on 58. i am ice which has one of the lousiest attack spells around but is supose to have a strong defense. dont see how you can defend against three on one or to bosses on one specialy when it is a single player quest.

Try the Waterworks gear. It has well rounded stats for each school and if that doesn't statisfy you, mix and match for the best gear combination.

if you are over level 60 and don't have your waterworks set, go and get it~ or the wintertusk crafted gear. even at the upper levels, it's still the best gear available in-game, for all schools.

ice is also the only school that benefits from the avalon crafted gear. if you don't have your crafting badges up to legendary, i'd get started asap.

good luck!

all still in full or partial level 60 gear.

The gear does need to be upgraded. There are many posts about this. KI doesn't seem concerned.
By the way, my Ice wizard is hardly weak. You may want to dump some of that level 58 gear. Have you done waterworks? Sadly, that seems to be the best gear out there.

Craft.

Here is a list of gear I recommend:

Hat: The Frostbit Hood, the Waterworks Ice Hat: www.wizard101central.com/wiki/Item:Frostbit_Hood

Robe: The Tyrant of Winter's Armor, which gives a huge health dose at almost 700, or the WW Ice Robe, the Frostbit Cape: www.wizard101central.com/wiki/Item:Tyrant_of_Winter%27s_Armor, www.wizard101central.com/wiki/Item:Frostbit_Cape

Boots: The Frostbit Boots, still the best Boots for Ice offering a good damage boost and the best resistance between the Avalon/Azteca Ice/Life crafted boots: www.wizard101central.com/wiki/Item:Frostbit_Boots

These are the stats: (Remember that these are just the Hat, Robe, and Boots)

Health: 1205. At lvl 90, your base health is at around 2000. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Ice Damage: 33%

General Resist: 31%
Fire Resist: 50%
Storm Resist: 46%

Ice Accuracy: 89%

Ice Critical: 109
General Critical Block: 53 (Yes, Critical and Critical Block are somehow pretty weak, but remember this is only hat, robe, and boots)

Healing Boost: 10% incoming

I can't recomend any wand, because it depends on if you have crowns and oack wands. I think Sidhe Staff is the best for the elemental schools.
