Mage
The mage is a class specialized in ranged combat, dealing damage and supporting allies. They use magical staffs as weapons, allowing them to attack at a distance without the use of ammo. Their normal strikes lack strength, they cannot evade much and also have lower life. However, their huge mana pools and versatility makes them a tough, hard to predict class.
The main attribute for mages is Intelligence. It gives them more Mana, spell resistance, staff damage and spell focus. Second in importance is Concentration, since it gives the mage higher hit chance and spell focus. The mage, unlike the other classes, gains 3 additional trees after choosing subclass. They also get more discipline and power points.
Powers
Like the other classes there are 4 disciplines of powers common to all mages.
- Mental: Basic damage dealing magic and crowd control spells.
- Mana Control: Spells that improve the spell casting and mana pool for the mage, as well as protective shields
- Staff Mastery: Gives the mage additional uses for his staff (damage bonuses and similar)
- Enchantments: Allows the mage to strengthen his allies and weaken his enemies
Mental
Allows manipulating or damaging an opponent using the mind's strength.
