Playstyles
Solo
Wizards can be self sufficient in solo play thanks to the massive damage and utility potential they have available. Between invisibility, haste, and slow, you have a plethora of options to turn the tide of battle in your favor. You should aim to devastate your opponents before they can have a stab at your low health pool.
Group
Wizards are devastating in group play thanks to their AoE spells. With the right coordination, you can mop up entire rooms of enemies in one fell swoop! Just keep an eye behind you for any pesky rogues.

Explanation
This build revolves around chain casting as many spells as possible before enemy players can react. Firing all five fireballs will do damage over time, knockback, and area of effect damage. Only pressure to melee when you need to but having your dagger always out will keep you alive versus pesky rogues.
Tips
- Camp Fires are required. Without meditate, you’ll fizzle out after a fight or two without them.
- You’ll need better than grey gear to ensure 2-3 spell casts will drop your enemies.
- Make use of your haste and ignite dagger before entering a fight. You’ll be able to reliably finish enemies off with a few stabs after you’ve thrown some spells at them.

Armor
Discard all armor except boots (to maximize movement speed)
Explanation
This build utilizes no armor for increased movement speed and invisibility to sneak up to unsuspecting victims. You’ll open with magic missile spam for an inescapable death trap of purple rain. Most anyone will take 1 look at you and smash the “W” key into you while spamming attacks expecting an easy kill. Due to a blue pot and the perk Reactive Shield, you should manage to outlive your opponents most of the time.
Tips
- Blue potions are required to ensure your barrage spam can kill them before they can kill you
- No need to fully channel meditate as you get your last spell refresh once the bar hits the left side of the “F” key prompt below the bar
- Shift walk during stealth to ensure players don’t hear you duck walking up to them with your floppy bare feet
- Spam crouch while spamming magic missile at point blank to dodge enemy attacks
Conclusion
The Wizard’s mastery of magic is simply breathtaking, whether he’s summoning a fiery fireball or disappearing into thin air with a flick of his wand. With crystal swords and daggers, you can become a fierce battle mage, unleashing a flurry of spells and stabs. Whether you’re playing solo or with a group, the Wizard’s massive damage and area-of-effect spells make him an essential ally. So grab your wands and swords, and let the magic flow! So grab your wizard hat, for there is something here to satisfy the cravings of every aspiring magician.
