Wizard

The Wizard is a class which can cast offensive magic proficiently. Wizards get an array of spells to damage their enemies with. Wizards can charge spells to increase their damage, and they can summon elementals at higher levels. They have poor HP and defensive skills, but make up for this with their ability to do lots of damage in a short time.

At level 30, a Wizard may evolve into either an Archmage or an Elementalist. Wizards can choose one weapon type in which to be proficient. The primary attribute of the Wizard is Intelligence.


Skills

  • Manashield - Level: 18 - Lag: 4
This is a toggle skill that causes all damage directed toward the caster to deplete mana instead of HP, at twice the rate.

Spells

  • Air Blast - Level: 1 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 18

Air Blast imposes 17% less lag than comparable spells.
  • Gem Missile - Level: 2 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 18

  • Ice Smash - Level: 3 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 18
Ice Smash creates sharp thin shards of ice to stab the foe. Ice Smash is a Tier 1 offensive spell and can be charged to deliver 1.5x the the normal damage. It deals cold-type damage.
Ice Smash deals two distinct hits to the target and has a higher minimum damage than comparable spells.
  • Fireball - Level: 4 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 18
Fireball creates a large fireball which is hurled towards a foe. Fireball is a Tier 1 offensive spell and can be charged to deliver 1.5x the normal damage. It deals fire-type damage.
After its initial hit, Fireball inflicts a lingering burn amounting to 5% damage each pulse for three pulses.
  • Rhizome Lance - Level: 5 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 18
Rhizome Lance conjures giant roots from the earth to attack foes. Rhizome Lance is a Tier 1 offensive spell and can be charged to deliver 1.5x the normal damage. It deals wood-type damage.
Rhizome Lance costs 17% less mana than comparable spells.
  • Darkside - Level: 6 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 18
Darkside is a spell which calls upon the nature of the deep dark void to blot the caster's foes from existence. Darkside is a Tier 1 offensive spell and can be charged to deliver 1.5x the normal damage. It deals dark-type damage.

  • Invisibility - Level: 7 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 40
This is a cloaking spell, that makes the wizard, or their target, invisible to those who are not affected by 'detect invis'.
  • Detect Magic - Level:9 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 5
This spell allows the target to see magical auras on items, as well as giving a rough estimate on the mana reserves of other mobs. This can be cast on yourself as well as others.
  • Charge - Level: 10 - Lag: 8 - Mana: 30
The charge spell infuses the target with a charge, greatly improving the effects of the next spell used by the target. Most offensive spells will have their damage output increased by half when charged, although other spells may have other effects added. Charge wears off after it has boosted one spell.
  • Sleep - Level: 12 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 96
This is an enfeebling spell that, when successful, puts the target to sleep. Failing, however, will provoke the target to attack. Recasting on an already-sleeping foe will reset the duration of the spell, keeping victims tranquilized longer. Sleep is considered to be of the "Charm" element - thus, any enemy who is immune to charm will not fall asleep.
  • Wizen - Level: 14 - Lag: 4 - Mana: 0
Wizen exchanges a portion of the user's HP for MP. When cast, 1/5 of your max HP is drained, to restore about 1/5 of your max MP. Greater skill % increases the efficiency of this spell.
  • Detect Invisible - Level: 16 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 5
This spell is used to detect invisible entities, setting their long descriptions of those who are invisible with the (Invis) flag. It can be cast on yourself as well as others.
  • Kundela - Level: 20 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 0

  • Blink - Level: 22 - Lag: 8 - Mana: 40
Blink teleports the caster randomly into a nearby room, allowing escape from combat or, sometimes, access to inaccessible areas. When charged, Blink may teleport the caster up to twice as far.
  • Syphon - Level: 24 - Lag: 16 - Mana: 27
Syphon is an attack spell that absorbs the target's hp, mana and moves, converting everything drained into mana for the caster. When charged, Syphon deals 1.5x damage and therefore 50% more returned mana.
  • Conjure Elemental - Level: 26 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 40
This is spell that creates a follower for the caster. The type of pet is determined by the owner's innate. Based upon the owner's innate, each elemental has its own weaknesses and strengths. The spell can be used with charge to allow the pet better resistances.
Charge will also allow this elemental to cast matching-innate spells, at the cost of the owner's mana.
As a follower and not a pet, a Wizard can still own a pet of whatever type and have a conjured Elemental.
  • Read Magic - Level: 28 - Lag: 8 - Mana: 24
The Read Magic spell allows witches to observe the current affects on a target, whether they are innate, granted by equipment, or the result of a spell.

Archmage

The Archmage is one of two classes a Wizard may evolve into at level 30.

Archmagi are scholars of the highest caliber, who have refined the art of spellcasting into sheer masterpieces. Their level of control over mana is so fine they can ensure their spells are flawlessly cast, or even reverse the elemental damage the inflict. An Archmage's repertoire is one of detailed skill, from the echoing of spells to confining a spell into a sacrificial staff or wand. Their signature ability is the practice of combining spells to create an entirely new effect.


Skills

  • Surecasting - Level: 30 - Lag: ---
Surecasting is a skill that can be toggled. When active, it ensures that any spells cast by the user will never fail. There is a chance, dependent on the user's skill in the spell being cast, that the spell will cost dramatically more mana than it normally would. This is capable of draining the user completely of mana, which will result in the user being stunned for a short while. Nonetheless, the spell will be cast even if it leaves the user completely depleted.
  • Combomagic - Level: 45 - Lag: 12
Combomagic is a toggled skill. When active, if the two spells of the proper innates are cast consecutively on a single target, the second spell is replaced by a Tier 4 combospell.
The elemental composition and strength of the combospell depend on its components, whereas the mana cost, spell lag, and cooldown depend on the combospell itself.
Combomagic can be triggered by an ally's spells, spells from held items, or even a previous combospell. The main requirement is that the second component of the combospell is provided by a caster proficient in combomagic.
Tier 4 Spell Combos
(Moon OR Earth) + Fire Flare Star
(Earth OR Wind) + Water Catastrophe
(Wind OR Wood) + Moon Southern Cross
(Wood OR Fire) + Earth Ancient Power
(Fire OR Water) + Wind Black Wind
(Water OR Moon) + Wood Grand Dream
  • Trance - Level: 40 - Lag:---
Trance is a passive skill that activates empowers the user for defeating many enemies consecutively. This triggers when the second foe is defeated ~30 seconds after the first foe.
As long as Trance is active, the user gains +2 Magroll/defeated foe, and regenerates mana as if they were asleep.
The longer you are in a Trance
  • Echomagic - Level: 55 - Lag: ---
Echomagic is a toggled skill. When active, all offensive spells will hit a second time, several pulses after the original spell.
This increases the mana cost of the original spell by 50%. The power of the echoed spell increases with skill.
The echoed spell will target whoever the caster is currently fighting.
  • Staffify - Level: 70 - Lag: ---
An Archmage can create a magical staff by trapping their spells inside of a weapon. The level is based on the caster's level or the item's, whichever is lower. The weapon is consumed in the process, and has a single charge. The skill % in the spell you are trying to charge the staff with is a small factor in the creation process.

Spells

  • Wind Blade - Level: 31 - Lag: 10 - Mana: 64
Wind Blade is a Tier 2 offensive spell and can be charged to deliver 1.25x the damage. It deals wind-type damage.
Wind Blade imposes 17% less lag than comparable spells.
  • Earthslide - Level: 32 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 48
Earthslide is a Tier 2 offensive spell and can be charged to deliver 1.25x the damage. It deals earth-type damage.
Earthslide costs 25% less mana than comparable spells.
  • Absolute Zero - Level: 33 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 64
Absolute Zero is a Tier 2 offensive spell and can be charged to deliver 1.25x the damage. It deals cold-type damage.
Absolute Zero has much more predictable damage than comparable spells.
  • Lava Wave - Level: 34 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 64
Lava Wave is a Tier 2 offensive spell and can be charged to deliver 1.25x the damage. It deals fire-type damage.
After its initial hit, Lava Wave inflicts a lingering burn amounting to 5% damage each pulse for three pulses.
  • Maneater - Level: 35 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 64
Maneater is a Tier 2 offensive spell and can be charged to deliver 1.25x the damage. It deals wood-type damage.
Maneater has a small chance to swallow the target whole, dealing ten times the damage and usually ending the fight instantly. This effect is much more likely to occur against small targets.
  • Void Ray - Level: 35 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 64
Void Ray is a Tier 2 offensive spell and can be charged to deliver 1.25x the damage. It deals dark-type damage.
Void Ray is weaker than comparable spells but deals double damage any time it is cast at least twice in a row, regardless of the target.
  • Thorn Aegis\Hailstone Barrier\Quartz Guard - Level: 38 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 28
The caster calls forth a shield that has -15AC and reflects back up to 1/4 of the damage taken by the owner.
Wood\Moon-Innate evolved wizards learn Thorn Aegis, which reflects as piercing damage.
Fire\Earth\None-Innate evolved wizards learn Quartz Guard, which reflects as slashing damage.
Water\Wind-Innate evolved wizards learn Hailstone Barrier, which reflects as bludgeoning damage.
  • Cure Osmose - Level: 43 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 5
Osmosis is a status effect that slowly depletes your mana. This spell will cure it.
  • Chrysalis - Level: 51 - Lag: 8 - Mana: 40
Chrysalis produces a shield that can take damage equal to the caster's maximum MP. Like manashield, the chrysalis takes 50% more damage than the caster would otherwise suffer.
Unlike manashield, damage to the chrysalis does not drain MP, but the caster cannot fight from within the chrysalis, and taking any action will cause the chrysalis to immediately shatter open.
  • Megamagic - Level: 60 - Lag: 32 - Mana: SPECIAL
This is a non-elemental attack spell. The damage done by the spell is equal to the wizard's max mana. However, if a wizard is not at full mana, then HP is taken to make up for the difference between current and max mana.
  • Reverse Polarity - Level: 65 - Lag: 8 - Mana: 40
After Reverse Polarity is cast, for all damage dealt by anyone in the room, most elements will have their damage type inverted, as per the table below. Both spells and elemental physical attacks are affected. Healing is unaffected.
Reverse Polarity
Fire Cold
Energy Water
Wind Earth
Electricity Iron
Wood Dark
Poison Light
  • Tractor Beam - Level: 70 - Lag: 24 - Mana: 120
Tractor Beam is a Tier 2 non-elemental spell. It attacks the entire room, except the caster's group and can be charged to deliver 1.5x the damage. It causes Bash-type damage.
Tractor Beam has a chance to dispel the Float effect on its targets.
  • Headology - Level: 80 - Lag: 12 - Mana: 150
A particularly clever Witch can convince a sentient enemy that they are, in fact, a newt. I'm quite sure you'll see this is true as well since they will become a tiny, slimy newt worth 0 EXP.
This spell has no cooldown.

Elementalist

Elementalist is one of two classes a Wizard may evolve into at level 30.

Mana is raw power, and few understand this primal rule as well as the Elementalists. They are able to impose their will on this power so forcefully that they can turn their attacks back into usable mana, cast more with less, and even instinctively retaliate with spells. While their focus is more narrow than others, the results of their dedication to the elemental powers of mana can not be argued with. (rough draft)


Skills

  • Wildcasting - Level: 30 - Lag: 10
Wildcasting is a skill that can be toggled. When active, it allows the user to continue casting spells if they don't have enough mana, even ZERO. However, casting without mana can lead to some random but detrimental side effects.
Additionally, wildcasting cuts spell lag based on the caster's remaining mana. A manaless caster enjoys a 75% cut in lag, while a caster with more than half mana remaining sees a negligible lag cut.
  • Feedback - Level: 40 - Lag: 0 - Mana: 0
Feedback is a passive skill that is always active once practiced above 1%. Whenever the user casts a spell, the user gains mana according to the amount of damage dealt. This is not limited by the user's maximum mana, which will temporarily increase to accomodate the gain from feedback, if needed.
Feedback includes overkill damage as well as damage affecting multiple targets, as long as the damage occurs from a single spell cast.
Although feedback has a long cooldown, feedback will partially activate even while on cooldown, as long as the user deals damage exceeding that of the previous feedback activation.
High skill converts a greater percentage of damage into mana.
  • Power Surge - Level: 55 - Lag: --- - Mana: 0*
Power Surge is a skill that can be toggled. While active, all cast spells will enjoy a 50% power boost(via increasing the level of the spell cast) but suffer a 20% increased failure rate.
  • Counterspell - Level: 70 - Lag: 0 - Mana: 0*
Counterspell is a skill that can be toggled. When active, it allows the user to immediately counterattack any offensive spell with any offensive spell of their choice. The counterspell induces no lag but costs twice the MP of a regular spell.
Counterspells do not consume a Wizard's Charge. The probability of counterspell activating is based on the user's skill percentage in counterspell.
