Sorcery

Note: Before Sorcery was announced by Trion as the official English name of this skill set, it was referred to as Magic or Mage by the ArcheAge community.

Overview

By choosing this path, the hero will have access to devastating spells elements that cause damage to one or more enemies.
Wizards considered their patron Aranzeb.

Sorcery is the combat tree for hurling damaging spells at your opponent. As the classic wizard-style tree, sorcery has many skills that affect multiple targets, a couple snares, and a couple close range AoE skills.

It relies on Intelligence: Increases magic attack +0.2 per point, max mana, magic accuracy, magic/ranged evasion, and magic/ranged critical rates.
