Swordmage

Classes 13-02-2023

1. INTRODUCTION 

A. Class Basic  

The Swordmage is primarily known for their long-range DPS capabilities. With a playstyle reminiscent of the traditional Caster/Mage archetype, Swordmages excel in unleashing devastating AOE spells from afar. Though they can deal out massive amounts of damage in short bursts, their lengthy cooldown periods require players to carefully manage their position and MP to avoid being overrun by enemies. 
  • Strengths: Massive burst damage, crowd control, deal all types of elemental damage making them hard to be countered. 
  • Weaknesses: Consumes a lot of mana, complex skill rotation, long ultimate cooldown, low health, vulnerable to attacks while casting many of their skills

2. BUILDS 

When building a character in Revelation: Infinite Journey, there is no right or wrong way. Players are highly encouraged to experiment and create a play style that fits them the best – But for those who are more into the hardcore side of things, we recommend focusing on your chosen Class’s core attributes as the fastest way to rise to the top. To help you get started, we've compiled a list of our top build suggestions below.
