Roles: Caster, Burst Damage, Mana Tank
Description: The arcane mage is similar to the sorceress. Lots of direct damage spells. He differs in that he has a strong levelable mana shield that allows him to tank about twice as well. His invisibility skill allows him to wait and regen mana when he's in danger. Most of his skills also require a target enemy, while the sorceress can simply cast on an area. Ultimately the mage is a bit better at bossing, while the sorceress is a bit better at AOEs, but it's not too much of a difference.
PROS:
- Fast leveling
- Great Damage Spells
- Strong levelable mana shield
- Strong mana regen passive
CONS:
- Low HP
- Mana intensive.
- No party support skills whatsoever
Skills
Arcane Bolt
Hurls an Arcanic Bolt towards an enemy, dealing serious damage and stunning the opponent.
FORMULA: (250 x ability level) +(Int x (1=(Ability Level x .03)))
MANA COSTS: 5 mp x lvl, Lvl 100=500 mp
Review: Single target bossing spell. Probably stick with the aoes and the mana shield early on for fast leveling.
Magic Nova
A magical wave that deals damage to its target and surrounding units in one massive burst.
FORMULA: (100 x ability level) +(Int x (1+(Ability Level x .02)))
MANA COSTS: lvl1=10 mp, 10=145 mp, 20=295 mp, 30=445 mp, 40=595 mp, 50=745 mp, 60=895 mp
Review: Your typical frost nova, just with a different graphic. This is a solid aoe spell, although I would prefer the Sorceress' frozen death ability.
Mana Shield
A shield Surrounds the Arcane Mage, using up his Mana instead of his Health to take damage.
FORMULA:Damage Absorbed per Mana Point: 5+ (Ability level x.25) Max lvl=125
Review: This is the skill that makes the Arcane Mage great, and far less squishy than his counterparts. Mana shield doesn't take armor into consideration when you take damage, but the Arcane mage has plenty of mana regen through intel, items, and passives. Due to changes in mana costs and mana gained through intel, I no longer suggest getting this until you have a good source of mana regen, such as an enchanted staff or helm
Arcanic Lightning
Lightning explodes from the hero damaging all those within the target area FORMULA: (100 x ability level) +(Intelligence x (1+(Ability Level x .01)))
MANA COSTS: 7 mp x lvl, Lvl 100=700 mp
Review: Another damage aoe. Damage seems to be pretty much the same as Magic Nova, except this does less intelligence damage and costs less mana. A good solid AOE ability.

Review: Exactly what the Mage needs to support his mana shield ability. with a level 1 mana shield 15 mana regen is the equivalent to 240 hp regen (assuming you had 0 armor), and it only gets more effective as this skill upgrades and you level the mana shield.

Review: This does really high damage, but it also has a very long casting time and a long cooldown. If used at the wrong time, this could get you killed. But if you're being overwhelmed with high level mobs, it can take them all out if you're high enough on mana/hp to take the hits.
