General Tips

• Snap Cast's cooldown is reset upon defeating a monster.
• Your Magic and Close Combat ranks will carry over into the test, so having higher ranks would be useful.
  • Having Rank 1 Spellwalk active may help improve your score, as you can charge spells while running.
• The crystals have 1 HP and will go down with any type of hit.
  • Magic cooldowns are reset upon defeating a crystal, including the crystal golems.
• In order to maximize points gained, you may spawn ice monsters on waves 1 and 2. You will require on average one extra ice bolt to kill every sprite.
• Fully charge your bolt spell right after defeating the elemental crystal, as there will be a short delay before the monsters spawn in.
• Make use of Snap Cast every time its cooldown is reset.
• Wave 3 will always consist of either a Fire or Ice Crystal.
• Players should prioritize destroying the Fire Crystal on Wave 3 because of the Giant Elemental Sprite. It is easier to dodge the fireballs than be permanently ice speared.
• Icebolt will frequently activate the golem boss's Mana Deflector; it will be difficult to accumulate points during Wave 4+.
  • Have Counterattack ready to use for when it rushes towards you.
    • You may need to use Defense if Counterattack is still on cooldown.
