(Based on my Experience on the Game) Offense Role Distract the defenders and attempt to kill any casters if possible. Strategy: Since you're generally pretty fragile, you're not really going to be rushing in for the kills very much. What you can do, though, is spam AoEs and/or bolts on the defending casters/Creators, both to distract them from their main role, and to (hopefully) kill them, or at least bring their HP down low enough that someone else in your attacking group can finish them off. Defense Role Slowing down attackers and draining the attacking group's HP so the other defenders can pick them off. Strategy: Your main job here is pretty simple. Spam all of your AoE spells over the Emperium room entrance while waiting for attackers - once they get in, just follow the largest group of them to damage as many as possible. If there's a high priority target (such as an Assassin Cross) closing in on the Emperium and/or your casters, you can switch to bolts momentarily for some extra damage (and elements, if you use Soul Strike for Ghost). If an attacking Professor comes in, they're probably going to be casting Land Protector at some point, so be ready to use Ganbantein to open up an area for your AoEs. Alternatively you can switch to bolting if they don't have reflect, or just start casting your AoEs somewhere else to go for different targets. One extremely overlooked skill for High Wizards is Quagmire. You can have 3 of these up at any given moment. Anyone inside the Quagmire will be slowed down significantly, so it's great for keeping front-line targets such as Lord Knights and Assassin Crosses back for a little bit longer, which will also give other defenders such as your trappers some more time to set up. Note that Quagmire stacks with some skills such as Sandman and Hammer Fall, so you can coordinate with allies to get some massive slow effects. If you're able to, get a soul link and bring some Crystal Fragments with you. This will prevent Soul Linkers from coming in and reflecting your AoEs, which will end up killing you pretty much instantly.
