General Tips

• Your Magic and Close Combat ranks will carry over into the test, so having higher ranks would be useful.
  • Having Rank 1 Snap Cast and Spellwalk will greatly improve your score.
  • While Fusion Bolt will not contribute to points, it is particularly useful at destroying crystals.
  • Magic cooldowns are reset upon defeating a crystal, including the crystal golems.
• Fully charge your bolt spell right after defeating the elemental crystal, as there will be a short delay before the monsters spawn in.
• Players should prioritize destroying the Fire Crystal on Wave 3 because of the Elemental Sprite. It is easier to dodge the fireballs than be permanently ice speared.
• Blitz through the waves as quickly as possible, as most of your points will be gained through the golem bosses.
  • Spam the Golem with single Thunder charges, as it will continuously knock down the Golem upon striking.
• Players can disable names and chat using Ctrl+N to improve visibility of enemy skills.
