A Magicians Quarrel [General Evie Guide]

• Sora wrote on 2010-10-07 16:08

  Is Death Label and Bloody Thread really practical while fighting against raid bosses? They both seem to take a fairly long time to activate, and I hardly ever see Evies using them against Blood Lord/Urkul.
  In terms of DPS, staves seem to be pretty low. IMO, they seem more focused on support.
  Evies would probably use Light Armor later on, although they lose a bit of INT, they gain a lot more DEF.
  
  Might be a good idea to add in SP skills...

  
  
  Death Label, and Bloody Thread are both used against the Red Tyrant in the video. As you can see, the player begins to attack just before the bear finishes his attack, then the player continues to finish his move with a Battle Scythe ability. IMO, it depends on how good of a player you are, if you can judge the distance of the attack well, you might be able to pull those off.
  
  I agree with you, and there damage is below all other. I'll probably edit that somewhere.
  
  Just looked back and I noticed a paragraph of mine had be deleted about light armor and up Dx Edited it up~
  
  

  Nice to see you made this guide Sora, and so fast too!
  I'll try to restrain my inner Grammar Nazi.

  
  
  No don't D:! Feel free to PM me my horrible mistakes, most of this was done late at night! I could learn something QQ
  
  

  Does anyone know how Fire Bolt's damage compares to Amaranth Kick and Thousand Needles? Let's just assume all 3 are being used by a level 1 character.

  
  
  I'd say Firebolt would do the most damage at that level. And even later on, though when she does come out, I'll be make sure to check that out!
  
  

  
  I believe that Evie may only wear cloth armor. Light armor is not allowed as far as I know.

  
  
  Nope, she can wear light armor, and heavy armor. I've seen some videos, I can link you if you want.

  How important is Strength if you are going to use Scythe?

  
  
  You will want to rank it, but not ASAP, should be done after ranking Intelligence Mastery, Agility Mastery, Smash Mastery, Magic Mastery, and a couple other skills. So, it should be on your list of 'Getting this skill to Cap', but at the end of the list.

  I wonder if it's possible to stack Bloody Threads before activating...
  In this video, she only activates it once every 3-4 smashes.

  It seems that she has time to activate Bloody Thread only when Urkul is down...

  Which skill is it that she picks everything up then smashes it down?

  I'm positive it does not stack. The reason she used it once every 3/4 smashes was because she waited until the Urkul began getting up, that way the knock down effect would keep it down (with the help of the party of course), and you have to notice that her other smashes didn't do the soul draining animation(or w/e u wanna call it). Also, the first couple of time her smashes didn't even connect. The first time I see her smash connect was at around 3:50. And at around 4:37, you see another Evie character perform Bloody Thread. But, if you read my above post, you notice I say 'it really depends on how good the player is, using Evie'.
  
  Edit: On a random note, I just saw a truck with a tank track in the back. Weird.

  Gravity Inversion. It wasn't included in the guide because it's an SP skill.

  Gravity Reverse or something. It uses all your SP so it's mostly just for bosses, and doesn't have too much of a use anywhere else ._.
  
  Edit: Just noticed Rain said the same thing an hour ago xD

  >_> I noticed you said Magic Missile twice. once in the Icebolt Description and once in the Magic Critical Description =P Might wanna change that to Magic Arrow. Don't think 1-5 magic missiles that deal 1d4+1 damage each to up to 5 targets no two of which can be more than 15 feet apart will help us in the game 8D

  I believe he was referring to D&D...
• psyal wrote on 2010-10-08 14:27
  Yep. And Magic Missile is one of the first spells you can learn there too!

  Battle Scythe Only Skill. Used after Quake Hell (2x Normal + Smash Button), drains the "Spirit" of an enemy after the[y] have been killed by Quake Hell,

  
  
  Nice guide by the way.

  Later on we get an SP bar that charges up when you use normal skills I think. Then you use the charged SP to use stronger skills.

  Awesome guide! It really cleared some things up.
