[[File:710065467 03 ArchMage m.png.c908f533e7f25d1fb824b0ca7a74f912.png]][[File:1538820766 04 ArchMage f.png.42a57c21a95693a607abaf74acb01af.png]]

<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">

<b>Erzmagier</b> sind die Krönung der Zaubererklasse in Ragnarok Online und stellen die höchste Berufsklasse dar. <br>

Erzmagier, bekannt als die 4. Berufsklasse, sind die Nachfolger der 3. Berufsklasse, der <b>Hexenmeister</b>. <br>
<br>

▶ Die Klasse des Erzmagiers ist exklusiv der Rasse der <b><span style="color:Brown;">Normannen</span></b> vorbehalten.

</p>

<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">
▶ Die Überlieferung legt nahe, dass Hexenmeister die Grenzen ihrer Macht überschritten und ihr wahres Potenzial freigesetzt haben. Durch jahrelanges rigoroses Studium, das Rezitieren uralter Beschwörungsformeln und die Beherrschung einer großen Anzahl von Zaubersprüchen haben sie tiefgreifende Zauberverbesserungen erreicht und ihre ultimative Form erreicht – die Macht des <b><span style="color:Brown;">Höhepunkts</span></b>. Befreit von der Notwendigkeit von Zauberbüchern können sie nun Magie ohne Einschränkungen kanalisieren und die traditionellen Grenzen der arkanen Künste überschreiten. Ihre Zaubersprüche schwingen mit einer solchen Kraft, dass sie magische Abwehrmechanismen durchbrechen können, einschließlich solcher, die durch Gegenstände wie die <b>Golden Thief Bug Card</b> gewährt werden. Mit dieser neu entdeckten Macht haben Hexenmeister eine beispiellose Beherrschung der Magie erreicht und setzen ihr volles zerstörerisches Potenzial ein.

<h2><span class="mw-headline" id="About_Arch_Mage"><span style="color:rgb(153,73,0); font-family: sans-serif; text-shadow: 1px 1px 2px black; font-size: 2rem;">About Me</span></span></h2>

<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">
▶ Du findest mich meistens unter meinen Aliasnamen im Spiel: <b><span style="color:Brown;">Phrixi Felatine</span></b> oder <b><span style="color:Brown;">Miyu</span></b>. <b>(Sag ruhig Hallo, wenn du mich siehst! :D)</b>
</p>

<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">
Ich spiele die Klasse <b>Magier</b>, seid ich denken kann. Es wurde meine Leidenschaft und von diesem Moment an habe ich mich für immer in Magie verliebt. Meine Reise begann in <b>(Korean Ragnarok Online)</b> in meiner Kindheit und Anfang 2014 wechselte ich zu <b>NovaRO</b> (Nova Ragnarok Online). Derzeit spiele ich seit Anfang 2023 auf <b>MuHRO</b> (Muh Ragnarok Online).
</p>

<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">

▶ Niemand hat mir beigebracht, wie man die Magierklasse meistert; ich habe durch Ausprobieren gelernt und bin wie alle anderen durch das Spiel gestolpert. <b><span style="color:Brown;">(Scheitern ist unvermeidlich)</span></b> Aber durch zahllose Versuche habe ich unschätzbare Erfahrungen gesammelt. Jetzt bin ich hier, um alles, was ich gelernt habe, mit Ihnen zu teilen, damit Sie die Schwierigkeiten, mit denen ich konfrontiert war, überspringen und direkt zum Erfolg springen können! <br>

<ul style="font-size: 1.1em;">
>Dinge, bei denen du wissen solltest, worin wir gut und worin wir schlecht sind.
</ul>
</pre>
<h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Pros" style="font-size: 1.3em;">Pros</span></h3>
<ul style="font-size: 1.2em;">
<li><u>Außergewöhnlicher AoE-Schaden (Area of Effect)</u>: Erzmagier sind bekannt für ihre mächtigen AoE-Zauber wie <b>Kristalleinschlag</b> und <b>Astralschlag</b> mit denen du mehrere Feinde gleichzeitig massiven Schaden zufügen kannst.</li>
<li><u>Zauber mit großer Reichweite</u>: Erzmagier können Feinde aus großer Entfernung mit Zaubern wie <b>Komet</b>, <b>All Bloom</b> und <b>Heftiges Beben</b> angreifen, was sie im Fernkampf äußerst effektiv macht.</li>
<li><u>Elementare Vielseitigkeit</u>: Mit Zugriff auf verschiedene Elemente (<b style="color: red;">Feuer</b>, <b style="color: blue;">Wasser</b>, <b style="color: green;">Wind</b>, <b style="color: brown;">Erde</b>, <b style="color: purple;">Geist</b>, <b style="color: darkgray;">Untote</b>, <b style="color: darkgreen;">Schatten</b>), Erzmagier können die Schwächen des Gegners ausnutzen und sich an eine Vielzahl von Situationen anpassen.</li>
<li><u>Hoher DPS (Schaden pro Sekunde)</u>: Erzmagier gehören zu den stärksten DPS-Klassen und können sowohl im PvM (Spieler gegen Monster) als auch im PvP (Spieler gegen Spieler) enormen Schaden anrichten.</li>
<li><u>Massenkontrolle und Debuffs</u>: Sie verfügen über eine Vielzahl von Massenkontrollfähigkeiten (z. B. <b>Frost Misty</b>, <b>Quagmire</b>) und starke Debuffs wie <b>Comet</b>s magische Vergiftung, die Feinde schwächen und ihre Strategien durchkreuzen kann.</li>
<li><u>Bevorzugt bei Party Runs</u>: Erzmagier sind aufgrund ihrer AoE-Fähigkeiten und Kontrolle über das Schlachtfeld oft die bevorzugte Klasse zum Mobben, Sweeping und Aufräumen bei Party Runs.</li>
<li><u>Auffällige und zerstörerische Zauber</u>: Die Zauber des Erzmagiers, insbesondere <b>Soul Vulcan Strike + Telekinesis Intense</b>, sind optisch beeindruckend und unglaublich zerstörerisch, was sie zu einer der aufregendsten Klassen macht.</li>
<li><u>Umgehung der magischen Immunität (Spätes Spiel)</u>: In späteren Phasen können Erzmagier bestimmte Fähigkeiten nutzen, um magische Immunitäten zu umgehen (<b>Tödliche Projektion</b>), was sie zu einer gewaltigen Kraft gegen Feinde macht, die normalerweise gegen Magie resistent sind.</li>
<li><u>Magie kann nicht verfehlen</u>: Die Magie der Magier Zauber können normalerweise nicht verfehlen, was sie effektiv gegen Feinde mit hoher Flucht- oder Verteidigungsfähigkeit wie <b>Wache</b> oder <b>Parieren</b> macht.</li>
</ul>
<h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Nachteile" style="font-size: 1.3em;">Nachteile</span></h3>
<ul style="font-size: 1.2em;">
<li><u>Niedriger HP-Pool</u>: Erzmagier haben einen der niedrigsten Gesundheitspools aller Klassen, was sie anfällig für physische Angriffe macht und eine sorgfältige Positionierung erfordert.</li>
<li><u>Abhängigkeit von MDEF-Penetration</u>: Ihr Schaden hängt stark von der <b>MDEF</b>-Penetration (Magic Defense) ab, sodass sie gegen Feinde mit hoher MDEF Probleme haben können, es sei denn, sie haben die richtige Ausrüstung oder die richtigen Fähigkeiten, um diese zu umgehen.</li>
<li><u>Begrenzte Fähigkeitspunkte</u>: Erzmagier sind oft gezwungen, sich auf nur wenige Schlüsselfähigkeiten zu spezialisieren aufgrund begrenzter Fertigkeitspunkte, was es schwierig macht, ihre Fähigkeiten auf verschiedene Builds zu verteilen.</li>
<li><u>Anfällig für reflektierten Schaden</u>: Reflektierter Schaden ist eine der größten Bedrohungen für den Erzmagier, insbesondere durch Feinde, die die <b>Golden Thief Bug Card</b> oder <b>Reflect Magic</b> oder <b>Max Pain</b> verwenden. Dies kann sowohl in PvP- als auch in PvM-Szenarien tödlich sein.</li>
<li><u>Hohe Ausrüstungsabhängigkeit</u>: Magier müssen erheblich in Ausrüstung investieren, um ihre Leistung zu optimieren, einschließlich Ausrüstung mit variabler und fester Zauberzeit, Verzögerung nach dem Zaubern und <b>MDEF</b>-Penetration.</li>
<li><u>Elementare Einschränkungen</u>: Einige ihrer mächtigsten Fähigkeiten sind an bestimmte Elemente gebunden (z. B. <b>Soul Vulcan Strike</b>, <b>Mystery Illusion</b>), was bedeutet, dass sie gegen Feinde mit Resistenzen oder Immunitäten gegen diese Elemente weniger effektiv sein können.</li>
<li><u>Keine Bewegungsverstärkungen</u>: Anders als andere Klassen verfügen Erzmagier nicht über Fähigkeiten, die die Bewegungsgeschwindigkeit erhöhen, was sie im Vergleich zu anderen Klassen langsamer und weniger mobil machen kann.</li>
<li><u>Anfälligkeit für SP-Abfluss</u>: Erzmagier sind beim Wirken von Zaubern stark auf <b>SP</b> angewiesen, was sie anfällig für <b>SP macht Entzugseffekte und Debuffs, die ihre Fähigkeit, Fertigkeiten einzusetzen, einschränken.</li>
<li><u>Teuere Ausrüstung</u>: Erzmagier benötigen für verschiedene Körperbauarten unterschiedliche Ausrüstungssets, was ihre vollständige Optimierung und Wartung zu einer teuren Klasse macht.</li>
</ul>

<h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Stats_2" style="font-size: 1.5rem;">Stats</span></h3>
<p style="font-size: 1.1rem;">★ <b>Strength (STR)</b> <b><span style="color:blue;"> [Optional]</span></b><br>
▷ This stat primarily increases your weight capacity (in addition to Gym Passes). It also contributes to Masquerade resistance in PvP/WoE. If you have extra points to allocate, a STR range of 10-40 is sufficient.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 1.1rem;">★ <b>Agility (AGI)</b> <b><span style="color:red;"> [Essential]</span></b><br>
▷ Agility reduces ASPD delays, grants +1 Flee per point, and increases ASPD. Every 5 points in AGI also provides 1 SoftDEF. AGI boosts your attack speed, which significantly enhances skill spam. For most builds, aiming for [90+ AGI or higher] is recommended, and I suggest achieving at least 175+ ASPD to eliminate delays.<br>
It also shortens the duration of Masquerades in PvP/WoE.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 1.1rem;">★ <b>Vitality (VIT)</b> <b><span style="color:red;"> [Essential]</span></b><br>
▷ Vitality increases your Max HP by +1% per point and boosts the effectiveness of potions. Mages have the lowest HP modifier among classes (though not as low as Super Novices), and they can be quite fragile in both PvE and PvP scenarios. For improved survivability, it's recommended to invest in [70-90+ total VIT].<br>
VIT also provides protection against Crystallization, Freezing, and Mandragora Howling in PvP/WoE.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 1.1rem;">★ <b>Intelligence (INT)</b> <b><span style="color:red;"> [Essential]</span></b><br>
▷ Intelligence directly increases your MATK by +1.5 per point and is your primary source of SP regeneration. It also reduces cast time. INT is your core stat for maximizing damage output, and it is recommended to have [120+ INT], or 130 if aiming for instant-cast via stat.<br>
Additionally, INT helps reduce the duration of debuffs like Sleep, Deep Sleep, and Oblivion Curse.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 1.1rem;">★ <b>Dexterity (DEX)</b> <b><span style="color:blue;"> [Optional]</span></b><br>
▷ Dexterity helps reduce cast time, boosts ASPD by a small amount, and increases MATK by 1/5 per point. It is ideal to keep your DEX in multiples of 5 for efficiency. A minimum of [90-100+ DEX] and a maximum of 120-130 DEX are recommended, or 0 DEX if using VCT% gear for instant-cast.<br>
DEX also helps reduce the duration of Freezing effects.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 1.1rem;">★ <b>Luck (LUK)</b> <b><span style="color:blue;"> [Optional]</span></b><br>
▷ Every 3 points of LUK provide +1 MATK, making it a valuable option for increasing MATK in the later stages of the game. Raising INT from 120 to 130 requires 340 stat points and grants +15 MATK, whereas increasing LUK from 1 to 30 only requires 86 stat points for a +10 MATK boost. Glass Cannon and damage-focused builds typically invest in 30 or 60 LUK, depending on personal preference.
</p>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
<h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Traits" style="font-size: 1.5rem;">Traits</span></h3>
<p style="font-size: 1.1rem;">★ <b>Power (POW)</b> <b><span style="color:Purple;"> [Useless]</span></b><br>
▷ As mentioned earlier, this stat offers no practical benefit for Mages, so it's best to avoid investing in it. <br>
Status physical attack increases by 5 per point. <br>
P.ATK increases by 1 per 3 points.
</p>
<p style="font-size: 1.1rem;">★ <b>Stamina (STA)</b> <b><span style="color:blue;"> [Optional]</span></b><br>
▷ This trait stat boosts physical resistance (RES). While not highly recommended, it can be useful for hybrid builds. <br>
RES increases by 1 per point.<br>

⇒ Adds Power Attack (P.ATK) and Stat ATK (ATK). <br>
⇒ Power Attack is a final&nbsp;% increase that boosts Weapon and Status Attack by that same value. <br>

⇒ Resistance works like Steel Body, as a percentage value, against the damage you would take, but before anything else. <br>
⇒ Resistance has a hard cap of 50 points, so anything above that means 0. <br>
⇒ E.g.: 2000 damage with 25 RES means that you will take instead 1500 damage as the initial damage taken (2000 * (100% - 25%) = 2000 * 75% = 2000 * 0.75 = 1500),<br>

⇒ CON adds HIT, FLEE, P.ATK, and S.MATK. <br>

<pre style="font-size:1.1rem;">Creative (CRT)</pre>
<p style="font-size:1.1rem;"><b>Main Trait for players that have skills that deal Critical Hits or play Heal builds.</b> <br>
⇒ CRT adds Critical Rate (C.RATE) and Heal Plus (H.PLUS). <br>
<b>C.RATE</b><br>
⇒ C.RATE boosts the 40% extra damage, the initial boost, of a physical hit, long or short ranged, for being critical. <br>
⇒ If your critical hits did 1000 damage non-crits, they do 1400 when they do Critical Hits (1000 + 40% = 1000 * 1.4 = 1400). <br>
⇒ If you have 10 C.RATE, they do 1500 instead. The 40% becomes a 50% bonus (40% + 10% from the 10 C.RATE). <br>
⇒ This doesn't stack with Critical Damage modifiers, those still apply in a different slot of modifiers, which means that they multiply with this. <br>
<b>H.PLUS</b> <br>
⇒ H.PLUS boosts the heal done by healing skills after all the other mods are taken into consideration. <br>
⇒ If you use a healing skill and it heals 20000 HP, when you add 20 H.PLUS you will heal 24000 HP instead. <br>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
<h3 style="font-size: 1.2em;">Casting Time</h3>
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">Casting Time is the period required to execute a skill. This is an essential consideration when planning builds, especially for Mage classes, as it influences stat choices, skill selection, and equipment.</p>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">In <strong>Renewal</strong>, the Cast Time is divided into two components:</p>
<ul style="font-size: 1.2em;">
    <li><strong>Variable Cast Time (VCT)</strong></li>
    <li><strong>Fixed Cast Time (FCT)</strong></li>
</ul>
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">Skills typically have a combination of both, though some may have only one of these components.</p>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;"><strong>Unit of Measurement:</strong><br>The standard unit for measuring cast time is <strong>seconds</strong>.</p>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">- If a skill has no base Cast Time or modifiers reduce it to 0 or less, the casting phase is skipped entirely, and no cast bar appears.<br>- During casting, the character cannot move, attack, or use other skills, but consumables can still be used. If the character takes damage during casting, the skill is canceled unless special conditions apply (e.g., using a {{#icon:4077}}{{#linkitem:4077|Phen}} or being '''{{#skill:255}}''' by a <strong>Crusader</strong>).</p>
<h3 style="font-size: 1.2em;">Casting Bar</h3>
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">The <strong>Casting Bar</strong> (or "Cast Bar" or <strong>CB</strong>) is shown as a progress gauge above the character's head. It starts as an empty black bar and gradually fills green as casting progresses. Once the bar is full, the casting is complete. Some skills may not display a Cast Bar, even though they have a cast time (e.g., '''{{#skill:10}}''' or '''{{#skill:92}}''').</p>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
<h3 style="font-size: 1.2em;">Variable Cast Time (VCT)</h3>
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">Variable Cast Time is the most flexible type of cast time and can be reduced through various methods. The general formula for calculating VCT is:</p>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
<pre style="font-size: 1.2em;">Final VCT = Skill VCT × (Stat Reduction) × (1 - [Sum of Percentage VCT Reductions]) seconds</pre>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">Where the <strong>Stat Reduction</strong> is calculated as:</p>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
<pre style="font-size: 1.2em;">Stat Reduction = 1 − √([DEX × 2 + INT] ÷ 530)</pre>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">To effectively reduce Variable Cast Time using stats, you need a combination of <strong>DEX</strong> and <strong>INT</strong> such that <strong>DEX × 2 + INT = 530</strong>.</p>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">Alternatively, Variable Cast Time can also be reduced using gear, equipment, or pets with specific VCT reduction bonuses. These reductions are <strong>stackable</strong> up to 100%, which results in an <strong>instant cast</strong> (equivalent to 530 stat points).</p>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
<h3 style="font-size: 1.2em;">Example:</h3>
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">If a player has <strong>160 INT</strong> and <strong>160 DEX</strong> and wears gear that reduces VCT by <strong>90%</strong>, the calculation would be:</p>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
<ul style="font-size: 1.2em;">
    <li><strong>Stat Reduction</strong> = 1 - √([160 × 2 + 160] ÷ 530) ≈ 0.048</li>
    <li><strong>Final VCT</strong> = 10s × 0.048 × (1 - 0.90) = 0.048s</li>
</ul>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">This reduction can be checked using the <strong>@Battlestats</strong> or <strong>@BS</strong> command, which provides details on the total VCT reductions from stats, skills, and equipment.</p>

<h3 style="font-size: 1.2em;">Important Notes:</h3>
<ul style="font-size: 1.2em;">
    <li>You can achieve <strong>0 VCT</strong> using stats alone or via percentage reductions, but not by combining both methods due to the way the formula works.</li>
    <li>Some effects, like <strong>Poem of Bragi</strong>, stack with VCT reductions, while others, like <strong>Suffragium</strong>, do not.</li>
</ul>
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;"><strong>Final Tip:</strong><br>For efficient VCT reduction, it's recommended to balance <strong>DEX</strong> and <strong>INT</strong> to minimize skill point expenditure and reach <strong>0 VCT</strong> as efficiently as possible.</p>

<h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Traits" style="font-size: 1.5rem;">Fixed Cast Time</span></h3>
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">▶ Fixed cast time is in a more complicated side when taken in account than VCT, being totally unaffected by stats. The formula for FCT is as follows:</p>
<pre style="font-size: 1.2em;">Final FCT = ( Skill FCT - [ Sum of Flat FCT Mods] ) × ( 1 - [ Max of Percentage FCT Decrease ] + [ Max of Percentage FCT Increase ] )
</pre>
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;">▶ Fixed cast time can only be reduced by buffs from a skill, an item consumable and from equipments.<br></p>
<pre style="font-size: 1.2em;">Percentage based reductions do not stack here, only the strongest one is applied.
</pre>
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;"><b>Percentage based reduction effects do not stack no matter the source</b>. If a player is under multiple FCT percentage reduction effects, only the highest value will take effect.<br>
<b><span style="color:Brown;">Highest Percentage will overwrite and hinder the lower ones useless</span></b>.
</p><p><br></p>
<ul>
  <li style="font-size: 1.2em;"><b>Example (1):</b> Having <b>Radius</b> at level 3 reduces your fixed cast time by 20% (Warlock Skill), but your Archbishop friend casts <b>Lv5 Sacrament</b> on you, which reduces your fixed cast time by 50%. Since only the strongest one applies, your fixed cast time will be reduced only by 50% and will overwrite the 20% from Radius.<br></li>
</ul>
<dl><dd style="font-size: 1.2em;">However, fixed (flat) reduction does stack with percentage reduction, and also with itself. This makes it possible to reduce fixed cast time to zero.</dd></dl>
<ul>
  <li style="font-size: 1.2em;"><b>Example (2):</b> A player has a headgear compounded with a Fenrir Card equipped and then has <b>Lv5 Sacrament</b> cast upon them. As Sacrament's bonus of 50% is less than Fenrir's 70%, Sacrament does nothing, and the player's FCT reduction remains at 70%.</li>
  <li style="font-size: 1.2em;"><b>Example (3):</b> A player has two Buwaya Agimat Tattoos equipped. Their FCT would be reduced by 7%, not 14%, as it does not stack (but they would get MATK +14% as expected).</li>
  <li style="font-size: 1.2em;"><b>Example (4):</b> A player has one Buwaya Agimat Tattoo equipped and is under the effect of <b>Lv5 Sacrament</b>. As Sacrament's bonus of 50% reduction is the larger bonus compared to Buwaya's 7%, the player has their FCT reduced by 50%.</li>
</ul>
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;"><br>▶ However, flat reductions like:<br></p>
<pre style="font-size: 1.2em;">Temporal DEX Boots (0.5s FCT reduction) and Ceremonial Crown GC (0.2s FCT reduction) = 0.7 FCT reduction
</pre>
<dl><dd style="font-size: 1.2em;">or</dd></dl>
<pre style="font-size: 1.2em;">Automatic Leg B-type (0.8s FCT reduction) and Brilliant Light Sapphire Ring + Brilliant Light Sapphire Necklace (0.2s FCT reduction) = 1.0s FCT reduction
</pre>
<dl><dd style="font-size: 1.2em;">or</dd></dl>
<pre style="font-size: 1.2em;">Magic Essence Lv. 5 (0.5s FCT reduction) and Casting Onyx [G] (0.5s FCT reduction) = 1.0s FCT reduction
</pre>
<dl><dd style="font-size: 1.2em;">or</dd></dl>
<pre style="font-size: 1.2em;">Illusion Morpheus Hood (0.5s FCT reduction) and Illusion Thorn Staff of Darkness (Total/Sum Refine is 22 or higher) = 0.5 FCT reduction
</pre>
<dl><dd style="font-size: 1.2em;"><b>Do stack</b> with other flat reduction effects. Stacking flat reductions is the only possible way of removing a skill's fixed cast time because there exists no single source of 100% FCT reduction. The only exception are the Oboro / Kagerou classes, who have the skill <b>16th Night</b> which removes fixed cast time entirely.</dd></dl>
<p style="font-size: 1.2em;"><b>[Fun Facts]:</b></p>
<ul>
  <li style="font-size: 1.2em;"><b>Soul Expansion</b>: This skill doesn't have any FCT (you could ditch FCT gears and wear damage gears for more damage on this build).</li>
  <li style="font-size: 1.2em;"><b>Energy Coat</b>: This skill only has FCT and it's the highest FCT requisite among Warlock skills (<b>a big whopping 5.0 secs of FCT</b>).</li>
  <li style="font-size: 1.2em;"><b>Mystical Amplification</b>: This skill now has an un-reducible amount of fixed cast time (impossible to instant-cast by any means).</li>
