Rune Wizard is a mage class that can be played in two ways, Close Combat and Long Range.
Stat Priority:
1. Energy - Main source of damage
2. Agility - Main source of Speed and Armor
3. Vitality - Main source of Health
4. Strength - Increase Elemental Damage
Tips for Long Range build:
This build lets you attack people from long range.
- Your highest hitting ability is Lightning Storm
- Your best AoE ability is Lightning Storm
After 5th Quest your best skill for Single and AOE Damage is Lightning Storm of Saturation
Tips for Close Range build:
This build is slightly better than the long range build but ONLY if all of your Magic Arrows hit the target, that is why you must be close to your target.
- Your highest hitting ability is Magic Arrow
- Your best AoE ability is Lightning Storm
- Always use Expansion of Wizardry Buff.
- Always use Haste Buff.
- Always use Burst Buff when available.
- Complete 3rd and 4th quest As soon as possible, because this class will gain extra bonuses (more than any other class) when learning new skills in the 3rd and 4th tier!
-Upgrade your weapon as soon as possible because they give you % damage.
- For longer fights it is worth using Plasma Storm together with Your Main skill. Example Plasma Storm+ Lightning Storm.
- When looking for spots, check your damage on different monsters as some have low magic/physical resistance, which will help you deal more damage. We did this on purpose on ParagonMu so that players not only look for spots but also check where is the best monsters for them.
Buffs:
- Haste - Increase attack speed.
-Burst - Increase damage for short duration.
- Expansion of Wizardry - increase damage.
Pvp Tips:
- For longer fight make sure you cast a Plasma Storm every few seconds to apply extra preasure.
