Special Mechanics

Wizard has a mana pool for casting spells. Maximum mana is 18, starting value is 6. One mana is replenished every 90 seconds and 2 mana are gained when the Wizard gets a kill. Mana is represented by the experience bar - each segment equals one mana. Because of that, Wizards cannot gain experience, enchant or use an anvil.

Spell Book is used to select a specialization (or discipline) and to setup spells for Magic Wand.

Magic Wand can be used (via left or right-clicking) to cast spells. Some Spells have cooldowns.

• Pyromancer

Tips

It can be wort it to save the choice of your discipline for later. You will gain mana as normal even before choosing.

It is worth it to save your spells for exceptional situations as you do not have mana to spare.

Ice Tomb is an excellent choice for hunting high-value players.

Thunderstorm can be extremely useful while fighting in open areas such as Crossroads or Last Watch.

Meteor can be used to siege fortified positions.

Summon Undead Legion can be useful while storming enemy positions.

Spawn Illusions and Chaos are useful in large-scale battles as they don't affect your allies.
