Mage Int>str build

Hello Im new to mage dps I want to build one any combos from low level to 290?
And low budget including npc gears too

 

what weapon, sub weapon and other skills do you use?
can't suggest combos without knowing what you have.

 

Md maybe since It's always what I saw on yt

 

I'll have to warn you: Staff MD sub works best if you have Magic Warrior skills. It's literally the only reason you'll ever want to use it.

 

I guess I should ask, what level were you currently?

 

so just magic skills then.
start with magic arrows for a cheap opening skill and put whatever your next skill is on consecutive.
once you've levelled up enough to unlock 4 combo points you can make a basic smite combo.
still arrows for opening, smite on the second (which should be your most powerful skill) and consecutive on the last to lessen mp cost. ideally a skill with a cost of 2 or less so it will be free.

arrows > lances > javelin works well for single target.
or arrows > blast > wall if you went the other route.

after that it becomes a matter of preference. try out different combinations and experiment with skill order and effects to optimise cost and timing.
big numbers are tempting, but being able to cast a weaker combo twice may add up to higher damage for similar cost.
