'''Wizard''' is a [[multiplayer]] map in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''. | '''Wizard''' is a [[multiplayer]] map in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''. It is most likely a [[Human]] structure due to the Human metal plates that make up the internal part of the base. It is also possible that it is one of the Human camps that the survivors of the [[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|Pillar of Autumn]] built on [[Installation 04]]. | ||
''Wizard'' was remade as ''[[Warlock]]'' for ''[[Halo 2]]''. | |||

There are two bases at opposite ends, a fair distance apart. Directly ahead of each base is a small platform, which contains the [[Needler]] and the [[Plasma Rifle]]. You can also get on the platform by climbing and ascending the ramp. Then, if you jump, there is a central platform which contains two [[flamethrowers]] in the PC Edition. Each flag is protected by a slab of stone. To the right and left of the circular platform, there is an [[active camo]], which is on the slab of stone, and an [[overshield]], which is behind the slab. | ||
Next to each flag, right above the ladder, there is a | Next to each flag, right above the ladder, there is a health pack. Below each base and between the platform next to the base, there are four grenades, either [[Fragmentation Grenades]] or [[Plasma Grenades]], depending on the base. This map is generally considered the smallest map in [[Halo: PC]]. | ||

Then, don't go on the ramp-that will expose you to enemy fire. Alternatively, go towards the place with the grenades, climb the ladder, and score! A counter-method of this is to simply guard the teleporters (aka camp). | ||
