High Wizard

The High Wizard is the transcendent (rebirth) form of the Wizard, and the pinnacle of offensive magic on the Mage line. A High Wizard keeps the entire Mage and Wizard arsenal and gains a handful of powerful new tools: deeper SP sustain, a burst of magic amplification before a big spell, and the capstone skills that complete the Wizard's three specialization branches.

The branch system carried up from Wizard reaches its peak here:

  • Tempest (Wind) — culminates in Killing Wind, which makes Wind magic hit harder the lower the target's health.
  • Frost (Water) — culminates in Ice Block, a total-invulnerability survival skill.
  • Fire — explosive burst damage (in development, see below).
