Best Races for Wizard Class
The Elf and Dwarf are almost useless with the Wizard Class! A skilled player might be able to yield something out of them but chances are that you will be quite inefficient with these races.
Human has a moderate disposition towards the Wizard. This is because of the higher initiative that allows a Human to gain an advantage on the battlefield.
Lizard is by far the best race for the Wizard. It has an extremely high disposition towards it as the doubled bonus to intelligence increases your chance of dealing critical damage to your enemy. The lizard can also use its racial ability to light stuff up on fire that works well with your class.
