Useful Info
Arcanists are spell casters who can blast you and make you fragile. Fortunately, they are flimsy. They can be found in late Dungeon and Vaults.
Spells
| Spell set I | ||
|---|---|---|
| Slot1 | Bolt of Cold (3d18) | Wizard flag |
| Slot2 | Vitrify | Wizard flag |
| Slot3 | Haste | Wizard flag |
| Slot4 | Searing Ray (2d19) | Wizard flag |
Tips & Tricks
- Arcanists can deal high damage, but they aren't too evasive, cannot see invisible, and don't have much willpower.
- Willpower helps avoid being vitrified, while cold resistance helps defend against Bolt of Cold.
- A silenced or waterlogged arcanist can only do weak melee attacks.
History
- In 0.32, arcanists will cast Searing Ray instead of Force Lance.
- In 0.31, arcanists were added to the game, split off from wizards.
