||
| − | |description = Wizard Slayer will try to block any elemental attack and "use enemies' own spells against themselves". The main dps rotation would be Mace Infusion -- Dispersion -- Gong Strike -- Mace Infusion -- Gong Strike. This build was relatively weak in arena(but playable in vanilla game), but with DLCs set up, Wizard Slayer is now Arena Champion and very interesting to play. |

| − | ==Full Build Details== |
||
| − | '''''<big><u><<Important Q&A>>:</u></big>''''' |
||
| − | |||
| − | '''Q1(Just in case). Well, Wizard Slayer, I get that~ How about those melee enemies flood in game?''' |
||
| − | <br>A: To be clear, as claimed in description, [[Mace Infusion]] and [[Shield Infusion]] are able to block any element from any source. That means melee attacks with elemental dmg, for instance, the [[Marsh Captain]] with [[Pathfinder Claymore]](deal decay), [[Ash Giant Highmonk]](deal lightning), and etc.. For those pure physical standard enemies, they're often fragile. For Arena Bosses, pls refer to Boss Guide. |
||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | '''Q2. Flawed logic? Enemies that cast certain type of element are often quite resistant to it~''' |
||
| − | <br>A: True and false. That combined with long CDs is the main reason this build was weak in previous edition. However, [[Dispersion]] now inflicts corresponding Hex and [[Mace Infusion|Mace infusion]] awards Boon, together with -70% CD this build is quite strong(and fun) in arena. Additionally, its not always the case, for example [[Ghost]] and [[Gargoyle]], they are extremely vulnerable to Ethereal but ironically they deal Ethereal. |
||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | '''Q3. Why Harry Potter?''' |
||
| − | <br>A: You dare use my own spells against me, Potter?! .jpg |
||
| − | ----'''Guides:''' |
||
| − | |||
| − | This build is a mage use stamina as resource mostly, dont just play like a melee tank. You will use melee from time to time, but element should be yr main dps output. |
||
| − | |||
| − | And, its not a high dmg burst build but requires some skills, so if you really like one-shot experience, please see my [[Build:There's no turning back|other builds]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | '''1.Breakthrough''' |
||
| − | |||
| − | [[Spellblade's Awakening]] ([[Gong Strike]]) and [[Swift Foot]] ([[Shield Infusion]]) are self-explanatory. [[Daredevil]] ([[Anticipation]]) to lower CDs which enables block chain. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Alternatively, switch [[Daredevil]] to [[Bloodlust]] if you really need 30% more element dmg and a more pleasant gameplay (Personally i prefer [[Daredevil]], more suitable in arena fights) |
||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | '''2.Factions''' |
||
| − | |||
| − | Factions need to be compatible with Breakthrough. So [[The Heroic Kingdom of Levant|Heroic Kingdom]] highly recommended if you go [[Daredevil]], otherwise [[Sorobor Academy]] to hedge lost CD reduction. Heroic Kingdom keeps the variety of dmg bonus since yr dmg type depends on yr opponents. |
||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | '''3.Mana''' |
||
| − | |||
| − | Invest 1 point only. You will have 55 in total after the main quest line. Please see '''5.Specialist Skills''' for more explanation. |
||
| − | |||
| − | '''4.Dmg Calculation''' |
||
| − | |||
| − | Dmg of [[Gong Strike]]/[[Shield Infusion]] ONLY relates to the BASE physical dmg of yr shield and ONLY benefits from elemental dmg bonus.This also applies to [[Dispersion]], i.e. to maximize dmg output, you have to use Tsar set. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Now the questions is: Why not [[Angler Shield]] or [[Zhorn's Demon Shield]], they provide higher base physical dmg? |
||
| − | |||
| − | Well, because Tsar Shield and Tsar Mace are indestructible !! |
||
| − | |||
| − | [[Gong Strike]]/[[Shield Infusion]] drops shield durability so fast and trust me you really really dont want to fight arena boss with broken shield. |
||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | '''5.Specialist Skills(By Split-Screen or Co-op)''' |
||
| − | |||
| − | [[Brains]]: Well, 15% more element dmg but 15% more stamina costs can be annoying in long-time boss fight, yr choice |
||
| − | |||
| − | [[Patience]]: 25% more dmg to [[Gong Strike]] and [[Dispersion]]~ |
||
| − | |||
| − | '''''<u>Important</u>''''': Since [[Patience]] will lower normal/special attacks by 25%, try use [[Probe]] to circumvent penalty(and receives the benefit)when fighting pure physical enemies. However, Level 4 Alertness [[Probe]] is way too clumsy, please use [[Mana Ward]] and eat blank dmg to deliberately lower Alertness level. |
||
| − | |||
| − | And, that's why you need 1 point investment in mana. |
||
| − | |||
| − | [[Cruelty]]: Fire comes the top priority in element block, making it a viable choice, but I dropped it eventually. |
||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | '''6.Equipment''' |
||
| − | |||
| − | Gameplay: Iron mace([[Unsuspected Strength]]), [[Tsar Shield]]([[Guided Arm]]), [[Scavenger Scarf]]([[Unassuming Ingenuity]]), [[Shadow Kazite Light Armor]]([[Assassin]] or [[Sang Froid]]), [[Tenebrous Boots]]([[Speed and Efficiency]]) |
||
| − | |||
| − | Arena: [[Mace of Seasons]]([[Whiplash]]) to inflict [[Elemental Vulnerability]] then switch to Tsar Mace([[Whiplash]]). Considering the rapid stability reduction from block and [[Dispersion]], you can wear [[Shadow Kazite Light Boots|Shaow Kazite Light Boots]] with [[Compass]] if you want. |
||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | '''7.Very early game''' |
||
| − | |||
| − | Travel to [[Antique Plateau]] immediately once freed from blood-price, clear that [[Bandit Hideout]] in east map to get [[Elemental Particle – Light|Elemental Particle-Light]] asap. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Enchant your Iron Mace with [[Unsuspected Strength]]. If that Arcane element didn't drop particle, delete the most recent save and try again. |
||
| − | ----'''Arena Boss:''' |
||
| − | |||
| − | Finally, the juicy part. This guide is way too long and I'll cover only essentials in this boss guide to keep some challenge. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Preface: The following guide is base on this very build ONLY, there're indeed easier ways to deal with bosses like grenades or 100% resistance equipment |
||
| − | |||
| − | Rating: 1 to 5 weak to strong |
||
| − | |||
| − | Abbr: [[Mace Infusion]]/[[Shield Infusion]] (MI/SI), [[Mana Ward]] (MW), [[Shield Charge]] (SC), [[Gong Strike]] (GS) |
||
| − | |||
| − | '''''-PS-: When i say Block, i mean use MI/SI to block specifically, NOT raise yr shield and press block button(Shield-Block hereinafter)''''' |
||
| − | |||
| − | '''''When i say Dont Block, its because there will be consequent attacks which''' '''will hurt u when ur still in block animation but already lose invincible frame.''''' |
||
| − | |||
| − | '''''---Spoiler Alert---''''' |
||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | 1.[[Chersonese]] |
||
| − | |||
| − | i.[[Troglodyte Queen]](R2): Well, the weakest mushroom Queen is now risen. You can MW and block her decay bolts/melee. SC + melee to interrupt her healing. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ii.[[Brand Squire]](R1): Always take advantage of his flawed AI. Face him and shield-block his perfect strike, after that immediately MI/SI, you are almost guaranteed to block his melee or decay smoke. And unfortunately, he's vulnerable to decay. |
||
| − | |||
| − | iii.[[Elite Mantis Shrimp]](R1): A very good target to practice yr block and only has 40 resistance to lightning. Dont block explosions when it raises two claws. |
||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | 2.[[Hallowed Marsh]] |
||
| − | |||
| − | i.[[Ash Giant Highmonk]](R2): Stay right next to him so you wont get hit by floating mines, MI/SI cloud > melee. His rejuvenation is very fast, dont make the fight too long. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ii.[[Elite Ash Giant|Elite Ash Giants]](R2): Pathetic Giants will be big trouble for this build if melee only, but they cast decay cloud.... |
||
| − | |||
| − | iii.[[Elite Alpha Tuanosaur]](R3): R3 for its epic hitbox, super defensive modeling. The range of mace is way too short to touch it. My solution: keep staying next to its right leg and circling from yr left hand direction, the first attack of its melee combo will miss u completely because of the modeling. Dont block its fire balls. |
||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | 3.[[Abrassar]] |
||
| − | |||
| − | i.[[Elite Crescent Shark|Elite Crescent Sharks]](R5): Drat.. Keep them in front of you and circling backwards along the edge. MI/SI when they lunge, always keep MW on before [[Dispersion]]. Be very patient and focus one shark at a time. As long as less than 3 left in the ring, you have already won. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ii.[[Calixa (Ascendant)|Calixa]] (R3): Except for her melee combo, the rest of her attack can be blocked. Also, block her second projectile not the first one. If u accidentally lose Alertness, [[Sweep Kick]] her and [[Probe]] since shes vulnerable to [[Confusion]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | iii.[[Elite Beast Golem]](R1):Stay away and force it to shoot projectiles, simply block them and GS/SI back. |
||
| − | |||
| − | |||
| − | 4.[[Enmerkar Forest]] |
||
| − | |||
| − | i.[[Light Mender]] and [[Plague Doctor]](R2): Extremely interesting fight. You need to block one's spell and retaliate back to the other, skillful ! If they are really trouble for you, simply put on [[Entomber Set]] + boons + [[Elemental Resistance Potion|Resistance Potion]] to achieve 100% lightning and decay resistance. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ii.[[Elite Burning Man]](R4): No, very unfriendly boss for this build. Difficult to block because of consecutive dmg of its fire spells. Likewise, stack up fire resistance to 100% and use [[Hailfrost Mace]] or [[Skycrown Mace|Skycrown]] to melee it~ |
||
| − | |||
| − | iii.[[Immaculate (Ascendant)|Immaculate]] (R1): Sorry Alien, you are now chicken meat. Just block everything it does, preferably ethereal shockwave, and return to it. |
||
| − | |||
| − | 5.[[Antique Plateau]] |
||
| − | |||
| − | i.[[Immaculate's Bird]](R1): Have some mercy, will you? By the way, dont block its [[Prismatic Flurry]] (Very obvious action). |
||
| − | |||
| − | ii.[[Elite Sublime Shell]](R2):Very easy to block. Stay near its left hand, avoid its right-hand punch and block the rest. Good [[Dispersion]] timing when it slams ground |
||
| − | |||
| − | iii.[[Elite Boozu]](R2): Clumsy Boozu, every attack can be blocked. Keep circling to its rear part and GS or [[Dispersion]] |
||
| − | |||
| − | 6.[[Caldera]] |
||
| − | |||
| − | i.[[Grandmother]] (R3): Use [[Elite Krypteia Witch|Mage]] spells against that [[Elite Krypteia Warrior|Warrior]], dont stay too far away from the Warrior since he will lay traps instead. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ii.[[Elite Torcrab]] (R2): Stay right next to it and force it to melee(Blockable). |
||
| − | |||
| − | iii.[[Unknown Arena/New Sirocco|Elite Gargoyles]](R1): Except for that expensive arena ticket, those Gargoyles wont give u any trouble. Just stay away and wait for its Urn Smash. |
||
| − | |||
| − | iv.[[Elite Crimson Avatar]](R4): Not a big problem anymore, Wizard Slayer can make it a turn based battle. Focus on its melee/ beam/ big fire balls(Especially!). If you can keep retaliating with fire infused attacks, it will die "quick and pain"~ |
