Mage/Dark Wizard Help Bipolar Mage

Can anyone recommend/create a good Tri-Elemental Mage build?
The three elements i'm looking for are;

• WATER
• EARTH
• THUNDER

I know those elements are so contradictory but trust me it's for a good cause!
(dual thunder/earth damage and water base 'cause mage)

 

I know shtting on stuff isnt the reason for this forums but there is a reason why pepole dont use this and that is if you have 50% str and randome dex so if youre damage is 100 without crit you get 150 damage but with crit you get 200 so its kinda just a waste of skill points and there are also almost no items for that combination

 

I think I know where your idea came from.

 

Technically this is Raw Spell mage but k.

 

If only they listened to my ideas, this would be easy....

 

thx 4 understand

oh.

WELL TECHINCALLY BRO did not know that thank you for inforimng me

omg now i can cosplay as zeld- link imeant lin kwithout feeling bad

 

hi ETW isn't very good simply because it's nearly impossible to balance defenses and put in any amount of survivability when you use something like that

this is pretty decent though it's a stretch to be called etw


Morph-Stardust
Boreal-Patterned
Dark Channeler
Gaea-Hewn

Prism
Prism
Dia Hydro Neck
Prowess

Infused Hive w/ 2W, 2T, 1E powders (couldn't find a better weapon - Bonder or Voidlight maybe?)


get reqs on everything and then get 129 int - should be possible with decent skill points

 

Pretty sure that's not how crits and strength interact...

@motoki1 can you give a better explanation please?

 

im 100% sure Selvut mentioned that earth/thunder can "stack" as in double damage from both elements especially since thunder can increase crit and boost earth damage via earth bonuses

 

I think I saw selvut say this I belive him

 

This is how it used to work, but I'm 95% sure the damage formulas have changed since then...

 

If you say so @motoki1. Can you explain how it works now

 

Earth Thunder is a good combo because earth has relatively good and consistent damage, lets say 1000 for the time being. Thunder has high, but also low damage, making it inconsistent, something like 500-2000. So, combining these elements in a build gives you a consistent, high damaging spell or melee attack because if your dexterity does not activate, the earth damage will still wreck.

Well what do you want exactly, a melee or spell build, then tanky or glass cannon, and assuming lvl 100

 

Yes but you could use one of them and do a little less damage or less consistent but then you can put. Those skill point in agility or defense to increase survivability or intel to spam spells

 

Fixed it for you

This might work :
Stardust (Skill Point and Elem Defenses)
Beetle Aegis (Spell Damage, Earth/Thunder Damage)
Post Ultima (Insane Earth/Thunder Damage)
Stalagmites (Insane Earth/Thunder Damage)

Moon Pool x2 (Mana)
Squid Anklet (Mana)
Lapis Necklace (Mana)

Don't know any wands, so I guess Hive Infused or Bonder

Earth/Thunder Damage with a water base

Raw Skill Points (Assuming Max Skill Point Items) : 30 (rest)/20(rest)/55/20/20

 

well there's a unique wand with a weird ass name but reqs are 90 str 90 dex so

 

Melee was my first thought but i'm basically looking for a build that can maximize damage (via the earth/thunder combo) and have high attack speed w/ enough mana regen to back it up (cause mage you know) so it might end up looking like a glass cannon but idc it's gonna be fun

EDIT
your build seems really nice thanks! exactly what i needed (high earth/thunder with water base)

 

Yggdrasil or something?

 

found it
deathsplinter

also bismuthinite is a thing

 

oh yeah im 100% sure selvut added that cause i pestered him about it lmao
