Build summary
| Part | Priority |
|---|---|

| Co-op role | Area damage, healing aura, and ranged support |
Core skill priorities
Follow connected prerequisites toward:
- Mage Apprenticeship - increases damage with magical weapons.
- Intelligence nodes - raise magic damage and Water Aura healing.
- Spirit nodes - increase maximum mana.
- Quick Charge - cuts staff charge time.
- Water Aura - heals injured allies within 15 meters based on Intelligence.
- Unity - gives wand damage a chance to restore mana.
- Wand Master - gives wand attacks a chance to spawn an additional projectile.
Choose elemental damage nodes after deciding which spells and weapons you can consistently support. Pyromaniac and Arsonist strengthen fire; Iceman strengthens ice; Thunder strengthens shock. Spreading points across every element too early weakens the main plan.
Survival and mobility
- Blink replaces the dodge roll with a short teleport.
- Emergency Blink allows Blink to break a stunned state.
- Life Essences converts Intelligence into additional maximum health.
- Bloodletting can create health, mana, or stamina orbs after magic critical hits.
Water Aura rewards staying close enough to support the party, but mage armor does not invite standing in the center of every enemy pack. Fight behind the durable player and move with the group.
Combat loop
- Enter with appropriate staff charges and a repaired wand.
- Open with a staff spell when the charging window is safe.
- Use the wand while moving or conserving charges.
- Stay within support range without stacking directly on the front line.
- Blink out before enemies surround you.
Resource preparation
Carry mana food, mana potions, healing, and enough spell charges for the intended expedition. Permanent spells improve convenience but do not remove the need for mana economy or matching elemental damage to targets.
Version note
Reviewed for Enshrouded v0.9.1.2 after the Forging the Path skill-tree rework. Water Aura currently heals within 15 meters and scales at one health for every two Intelligence points.
