    Default The Magic build (IB2)

    Hi everyone, I think it would be interesting to share this build since it works well after the update 1.1 ( didnt work well before 1.1)

    So we all leveled up and we pretty much rely on our weapons to deal damage, magic damage is great but it doesnt work well on Titans that has resistance and also bosses.

    Now, I am tired with LS, dual and heavy and want to start out with magic build just like the old day playing IB1 and surprisingly, the new Diruel Ring (Dark 8) can be used and damage all enemies (works on both titan with resistance and bosses, bug? ). I also notice that there is a gem called On Magic Get 2000 Health which is perfect to both damaging the opponent while healing self.

    Test with these:
    Ring: Diruel
    Armor: Night armor
    Helm: Royal Helm
    Shield: Epsilon
    Weapon: Orcan - light ( this one has 2 circle slots and square for elemental +dps gem, which is nice)

    Since this is a fun build so I dont seriously use Gelder/Trifecta for more circle slots cause I save them for real fight. I got ~1200 magic from all gems and every like 10 secs, I can shot Dark Magic at about 11k dmg and heal myself 2000. I tried this for several hours of playing and I think its nice ( not so easy, not so hard but gives a new play style).

    Hope this brings more fun to anyone who wants something new

    Cheeers,

    Dood, ok i hit lvl 25 now, and have been wanting to go full magic damage build like i did when i played IB1 last year. I have saved all gold and am at 425,000 (ring=500,000) i have 65 magic right now , and enough stats in health to be at 1500. I am going to put rest in magic. I am on rebirth 12, and lvl 25. Should i buy the 8 shadow damage ring, and 1 shot people, or should i buy the 1150 heavy damage 2handed weapon and save up for the duriel later???

    Updated: At last I found an enemy that resist the Diruel Ring dark magic, its the MX-Hulk which Dark attack and no Dark Resistance !!! Anyway, to me its still a fun build to try when you got bored

    Kooderna: I recommend to level up with normal build, the magic build is basically for fun !

    I'm pretty sure I've also seen those guys with the tentacle dreadlocks and 2 bladed staffs resist dark. and either a Wretch or pierced wretch

    For your information, all titans or deathless are vulnerable to Crystal Magic so if one insists on being the Wizard or Magician, there is still hope but seriously, the Dark Magic from Diruel kills all - if my phone is powerful enough so that I can make a video ...

    I have Magic +600 with Diruel Ring (Dark 8) And I do not think that full damage for titans that have got resistance to that type of magic is not a bug.

    Why? My titans do have resistance to everything. And you know that you do more damage to light resistance using dark magic. Maybe that light+dark resistance nullify. If so, there is bug that no titan should have resistance to shock/fire/light/water and not their pairs bcs resistance to everything seems as resistance to nothing

    Haha for the past few days I have been trying this out with my Diruel and +2248 health on magic. I had no idea it was another fighting style. Nice job Ravine!

    I'm not sure if it's just me, but for me titans are only resistant if they have that elemental attack (if they attack w/ dark, then they're resistant to dark.) Vice versa for vulnerability.

    This is my experience, too.

    the choice of spell is very limited,
    dark 8, light 7, shock 7

    if I'm to design the new ring I'd make it the cog mirror,
    but it's just me.

    magic build sounds interesting. i have got 3 magic stat gem +200 from large chest.
    i will give it a try later, maybe when i could find enough quality magic stat gems to replace the attack ones.

    We should make a clan for those wanting to use magic as a main or secondary fighting style. I move that we make magic the fourth (unofficial) fighting class!
