Mortal Online 2 Mage Guide

Mortal Online 2 is a pretty confusing game and making a mage is one of the more complex builds. So lets go over everything you need to know to make a spell wielding wizard in this Mortal Online 2 Mage Guide.

Best Mage Build in Mortal Online 2

When creating a mage in Mortal Online 2 you have 2 options that do well at end game. You can either be what the community call a “fat mage” which is a slow, heavy build with maximum intelligence. This type of mage puts out the absolute maximum magical damage possible. The other option is a “Dex Mage” which is lighter, faster, but with slightly lower intelligence.

Totally up to you what type of mage you pick, but the “Dex Mage” is probably the most popular and strongest in the different forms of content. For this we recommend the following:

Race: Sheevra
Height: Minimum height
Weight: Stout or Bulging (stout for more speed, building for more intelligence)
Age: 30-31

Spell Book and Scribing

In order to cast spells as a mage in Mortal Online 2 you need a spell book. You can purchase this from the magic trainer vendor in any major city or in haven for 1 gold and it comes with some of the most basic spells. Once you have you spell book you can cast any of those basic spells. You get a heal, a couple of attacks and some utility.

To learn additional spells in this spell book you need find the spells and then have them scribed into your spell book. You have 3 options for learning new spells.

Find the spells from bosses, vendors and have another player scribe them into your book.
Buy a new spell book from the trader from other players that already has advanced spells scribed into it.
Learn the “scribe” skill and scribe spells yourself.

For new players, learning the scribing skill is not something we’d recommend. The skill book isn’t just in the library you must get is a drop from a boss in the Tindrem (western city) sewers.

What Mage Skills To Level

There are lots of skills to level for a mage in Mortal Online 2. Some increase your damage, your mana and mana regeneration and others affect the spells you cast. Lets go over each of the important skills and what you should learn and level in order of most importance and what you should level first. Note that you can buy a spell book and equip it just to unlock that skill and then replace it, you don’t need to rely on the book to level the skill up:

Mental Training: Includes mental Focus, concentration and mental offence. this is your number one primary and secondary skills. They increase damage of spells and reduce the mana cost.
Vitalism: Includes mana regeneration and meditation which both increase mana regen.
Ecumenical Spells: Allows you to use all of the basic magic school of ecumenical spells. This includes your heals, damages and shields and everything your beginner spell book.
Spiritism/Necromancy: Its up to you if you want to learn magic from other spell schools after this.

Mage Equipment

As a mage you don’t need any sort of staff or wand to cast spells, these are all cast with your bare hands. There are certain amulets and rings that increase your intellect and magic damage, but the rest of your damage just comes from your skills and spells.

A mage will need to use a weapon for close range combat, when they need to parry and block attacks, until they retreat and let out more spells. The most used and most popular equipment for mages is daggers and shields.

For armour go for something light to medium. Avoid heavy armour as it slows you down and your place isn’t on the front lines. Also avoid wearing the “rugged” clothes, you don’t need to dress like a wizard as they don’t provide the defence you need.

Mage Spells:

In your beginner spell book you will have the following spells, so lets explain them.

Outburst: This is your main damage spell in the early game, as you level up your mental offence and mental focus this will start being able to be used as your main attack.
Lightening: More attack than outburst, but uses cuprum, so not really worth using for leveling.
Corrupt: Damage over time spell, interrupts casting and stops healing.
Purify: Removes damage effects like corrupt
Spurt: Very low damage, but super fast and cheap
Light Heal: Your main healing spell for most of the game

These spells will keep you going for a long time. Once you start beating enemies you will start finding new spells. The 1 spell you should focus on getting is thunderslash. This does significantly more damage than outburst at a higher reagent cost and will help in harder encounters.
