Soothsayer build

[keko4321]

the only magic worth upgrading to level 3 is rune magic(dps wise) ?
i do remember chaos were pretty good in AP , it's nerfed ? and 90% of the spells i'm finding is rune magic .
artifactor is any good ? i found few recipes but it doesn't show the items stats
and looks like i can destroy items to get materials to craft others ?
it's worth it to get persuasion in mind tree and max it ?
i'm a bit lost here so any suggestion please

Thanks

I found no differences in most chaos spells (flame arrow, poison) compared to AP. Actually, Magic Missle and Flame Arrow kinda do the same damage for me, right now.

It'd be nice to have a list of spells available in Runic Magic school , though... so far I only found/learned three, although the Winter Dance is a great spell for when your units are surrounded, it does physical damage and a lot of enemies are resistant.

Chaos magic is still the best choice for damage dealing spells. Rune magic has a few high damage spells but they consume the runes of your army to get the most out of them, so if you don't use the viking units its not very effective.

The rest of your questions kind of depend on you hero class and army composition, persuasion for example is useless unless they really don't like other.

Artifactor is an interesting skill, useful for the destuction ability alone to gain crystals for learning spells(and the crystal collector medal).

I have'nt had much luck with crafting scrolls yet, the only one I've found is for a students belt that gives +1 def +1 int and a 5% chance of a free class rune after each battle. Lastly, to craft items you need gold, mana and a few crystals.

Hope that helps.

Hmm my safest bet would be investing in lvl 3 order magic before runic magic

since most of your beginning enemies will be undead

and personally i didn't find runic magic do be that good anyway and not alot of randomness on first island

most spells u find on first island are runic then order then distortion and if u get lucky u get some chaos spells

I'd have to disagree. If you get Heal, then yes, Order magic can be quite useful, but only to a point. Most of your units won't have that much health at that point, so the actual healing side tends to be overkill. The spell does do a decent amount of damage to Undead, but at level 3 it does less damage than a level 3 Magic Missile spell. The only advantage it has is the ridiculously low mana cost - but if you're playing a Soothsayer, you likely have a decent amount of mana to work with. Throw in the damage from a level 3 Winter Dance spell, and Runic magic wins, imo.
