This Mage Build is for those who enjoy casters in other MMOs or playing combat-oriented games from a long distance. You can use this build to deal with high DPS and support your party members while away from danger. We’ll explain the Mage Build setup in Throne and Liberty.

This guide has been created for the current launch of Throne and Liberty in the Western Hemisphere.

Which is the best mage Build in Throne and Liberty?

Wand and Staff weapons are the best for a Mage build in Throne and Liberty because of the range, skills, and overall power. This unique Build allows you to deal with enemies with magic skills differently. This weapon combination offers a lot of creativity in how to win battles. You can slowly exhaust enemy Health through Burns stacks and DoTs with the help of Curses. However, if the party members lack survivability, then healing skills and damage mitigation are available to you. Use this weapon combo for crowd control for quickly clear times.

In Throne and Liberty, skills are abilities you can use and change depending on your equipped weapons.  Unlike other MMORPGs, your weapon choices determine your skills and build.  You can swap weapons and gain a new set of skills that you learn throughout the leveling process.  Moreover, skills come in three forms: active, passive, and defensive.

Wand Pros	Wand Cons
Crowd Control	Low DPS
Best Support	Limited AOE
Powerful in Mage	Too much Support

Best alternatives for mage build in Throne and Liberty

Longbow-Staff: The unique weapon combination can deal massive damage with a flood of hard-hitting spells and can decrease the cooldown of both weapons. The magic damage dealt due to mobility is enhanced by keeping the staff stationary with the help of Longbow.

Staff-Crossbow: This build focuses on dealing with a huge amount of AOE damage. The fire damage can be applied to both weapon skills of this weapon combo due to Mother Nature’s Protest. This Build can remain relevant against single targets and reduce skill cooldowns to boost the damage by the Mortal Mark and Selfless Diffusion abilities.

Best Weapons Choice

The main hand weapon for this Mage Build in Throne and Liberty is the Wand. The wand is a ranged weapon that can also heal your party members in small bursts. Wand in Throne and Liberty is well-suited for Mage and group PVE content. However, this weapon offers crowd control and deals massive damage. Just like other weapons in Throne and Liberty, the wand also has a few drawbacks, which include limited AOE damage and low DPS.

The Off-hand Weapon for the Mage Wand Build is the Staff. Staff is the best weapon to pick if your playstyle revolves around Damage Over Time (DoT). It has a long range and you can deal massive damage to enemies hovering at long distances in combat. The Staff damage is based on the Weather conditions. The interactive nature allows the Staff to provide a significant damage increase. However, this weapon has a few drawbacks as well, as the Staff spells require time to cast and the cooldown takes much time. The staff has lower DPS for the ranged weapon.

The other weapon that works well with the Wand is the Longbow. Longbow allows you to stay stationary at the maximum range for optimal damage due to passives in Throne and Liberty. Longbow stands out due to its dynamic range combat. A longbow is a kind of unique weapon that is easy to use, deals massive damage, and provides high versatility. However, this weapon lacks mobility and is not useful at close range. This weapon is specially built for long-range combat.

Defense Skills

Mystic Shield

Mystic Shield is the best defense skill for staff build because you can regenerate mana on defense and deal with increased damage against burning, wet, or frosted targets. The Secondary choice is Chaotic Shield because it lowers curse skill cooldowns.

Defensive skills are skills that allow you to defend against attacks. Enemies will have a “Fury Attack,” a purple circle drawing down to a central point. You can defend against the Fury Attack by using your defensive skill at the precious moment for a perfect defense. Each weapon has its defensive skill, which consumes stamina instead of mana, shown on the left of your User Interface when used. Special effects occur when you successfully defend against a Fury Attack; timing is vital for maximizing your build’s potential.

Adjust skills and improve your Mage Build to its Apex capability by utilizing a system in Throne and Liberty known as Skill Specializations. This system in Throne and Liberty not only provides crowd control and debuff but also grants you a buff range and completely modifies the working of skills.

Weapon Mastery

The best weapon mastery tree for the Mage Wand Build is Damage from the Wand and Destroy from the Staff.

Below are the best weapon mastery selections in Throne and Liberty using the Wand Build.

• Wand- Use 9 points on the Damage to gain Cooldown speed and then swap to Recovery for Buff Duration.
• Staff- Allocate 9 points into Destroy to gain Strange Spacetime and then switch to Mana to gain Reverberation Shield

Weapon Mastery is a system that gives you experience for your weapon that is equipped proportional to the experience earned.  Thus, at the start of the game, Weapon Mastery points are limited, but you will start earning more as your experience per kill and quest increase with level and zones.  Your main hand weapon gains increased weapon mastery, while off-hand still gains some, just not as much.

Best Stat Points

The most important stat for a Mage Wand build is Dexterity and then Strength.

Below is the best recommended Stat Point:

• 30 Strength: affects defense, maximum health, maximum damage, and minimum damage.
• 40 Dexterity: affects critical attack, evasion, and maximum damage.
• 28 Wisdom: affects maximum mana and mana regeneration, skill cooldown, and maximum damage.
• 24 Perception: effect accuracy of attacks, Crowd Control effects, enhancing time boost ability, maximum damage, and minimum damage.

In Throne and Liberty, stat points are earned while leveling and increasing your effectiveness.  When you spend a stat point, you increase the effectiveness of that related attribute. However, after a certain number of points, you reach diminishing returns, and two points are required to increase a stat rather than one. Moreover, once stats reach a certain level spent (30 or greater), you gain unique bonuses.

Guardian

the best Guardian for the Mage Wand Build is Shade Revenant Stheno. Random Enemies are targeted by 5 projectiles within a range of 10 meters. An enemy can be hit with more than one projectile. The enemy deals 52% of base damage with each projectile. Shade Revenant Stheno is currently the best Guardian for dealing massive damage. These projectiles provide critical hits and multiply the damage with the help of Heavy Attack.

Guardians act as a short-term ultimate or super ability with powerful effects and a long cooldown. Ideally, you want to select a Guardian that either enhances a strength or covers up a weakness.  You obtain Guardians after level 25 and completing Chapter 25. From that point, you can find how to obtain additional Guardians to enhance your Mage Wand Build further. Moreover, these skills can only be used infrequently, as in 10 minutes, so save them for critical situations.
