In this segment of the video, the creator showcases a mage build primarily focused on wands and supported by a staff. The build emphasizes fire damage through pyromancy and has been refined over 60 to 80 hours of gameplay.
Key points include:
– The skill tree is tailored towards a wand-centric combat style with supporting skills in intellect for increased magic damage and mana recovery.
– The “Battle Mage” tier features investments in skills that enhance wand effectiveness and mana regeneration, often combined with shield usage for a robust defense.
– A secondary focus on the Healer tree is explained, noting the use of “water aura” for self and ally healing, which is particularly beneficial when playing with friends.
– Intellect and Mana pool skills are also prioritized to augment overall magic capabilities.
– The creator deliberately avoids certain healing skills that do not align with this specific build’s strategy, instead choosing to invest in skills enhancing fire damage.

In this segment of the video, the speaker highlights the Necromancer build, focusing on its ability to summon skull companions with a 10% chance upon killing enemies. The build emphasizes fire damage, increasing it by 10% through the Spirit to boost Mana, and further enhancing it with Pyromaniac for an additional 20%. Radiant Aura is used to deal fire damage to foes within 10 meters, and fire damage is prioritized due to previous acquisition of fireball spells and a powerful level 20 Luminous Wand with significant fire damage bonuses. Additionally, the speaker discusses limited points in the Assassin and Survivor trees, emphasizing the importance of stamina boosts, double jump from the Survival tree, which enhances mobility and access to different areas, and reduction in glider stamina consumption from the Assassin tree.

They then detail the gear they are wearing, specifically level 18 magician set armor that can be crafted via The Alchemist NPC. They explain that while this isn’t the best gear, it suits their current needs, and they aim to eventually upgrade to the Arch Mage set and ultimately the Elder set for max-level magic users.
The speaker moves on to discuss food and buff items useful for their build, highlighting the mushroom omelet for boosting intellect and magic damage, endurance food for increased stamina, sugar for stamina recharge, and grilled Azure mushrooms found in the Shroud for additional benefits. They emphasize the importance of these items in enhancing their wizard gameplay experience.
