Mage
Overview
The magic-wielding Class in Hack/Mine. Specializes in spells and wands, starting with a Wand of Firebolt. Mages are powerful magic wielders. Cackling maniacally as they teleport and douse their enemies with fire and lightning is not unheard of.
Abilities
| Mana | Cooldown | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Blink | 10 | 1 | Teleports the caster up to 16 blocks, randomized past 8 blocks. |
| Firebolt | 2+Int*.2 | .5 | Launches a ball of fire from the caster's hands! |
| Charged Bolt | 3+Int*.3 | .5 | Launches multiple lightning projectiles, increasing in number as Intelligence is stacked. |
| Lightning | 20 | 2 | Strikes the target with lightning from the sky! Also sets mobs that are close to the impact on fire. |
| Gale | 15 | 5 | Knocks all nearby targets a good distance back (useful in sticky situations.) Fus Ro Dah! |
There's only like ONE way of building mages. Stack Intelligence like there's no tomorrow, while putting a few points into Wisdom when you're running out of mana too quickly until you find a wand that regains mana.
For abilities, the obvious choice would be to spec into the flame breath ability. With a mana steal wand, you would be pretty much unstoppable and the fact flange breath has passive knockback really helps. However, you might have a bit of trouble with skeletons as you're required to ruin up to then first as the range of breath is too short.
