When you think of a mage, the first thing that usually comes to mind is hurling a fireball indiscriminately in a confined space. In Shadovia, things are a little bit different, because why wouldn’t it be? No in their right mind has ever thought of doing melee as a Mage, but here we are.
There’s a few components you will need in order for this build to work on its own. You’ll also have a couple of choices for the weapon you want to use. Find out how the build works by checking out the rest of the guide below!
Best Mage Build Guide & How To Get It
A good start would be to get Irridance, a great sword that has +390 Melee Power. It also has the special ability Spectral Path, which creates a trail of terrain that harms everyone nearby.
You also have the Wicked Dagger that deals 300 damage per hit, a great weapon to have if you’re just grinding.
The other best melee weapon in the game right now is the Steel Katana. All items here can be retrieved by doing quests or through crafting and weapon fusion at the Blacksmith.
Here are the other items that will turn you into the most powerful mage in Shadovia overnight:
- Alchemist’s Cap – Boosts 45% of your magic and your melee strength. It also allows you to craft potions at a blacksmith. Retrieve this by killing a Lethal Alchemist behind the Queen’s castle in the mushroom biome.
- Wanwood Robes – Complete the Princess’s questline over at the mushroom biome. This will send you into another quest where you have to kill Vermillion. The robes increase your magic damage by 55% and gives you an additional 50% to your healing power.
- Arm Bracer – Improves your overall defense and gives you a +5 bonus to Armor Piercing. Having this on also slows down enemies around you when you come into contact with them
- Negative Skeleton Mask – You can find these in graveyards. Putting this on will sacrifice -20% of your defense for an extra 20% boost to your attack power.
- Panic Ring – You can get this by doing Sloth’s quest in the desert area. It stuns enemies and gives you a +5% damage boost along with a +0.65 health regen.
- Medal of Courage – Gives you a +25% health boost at the cost of getting stunned for longer.
And that’s the best mage build imaginable in Shadovia for the moment. Put the pieces together and watch your opponents disintegrate!
