Should i get shadow on a MAGE

i am in awe of shadow’s stats, but the problem is that shadow isnt made for mages. idk if shadow’s lack of synergy but good stats would overall be better for my mage

possible magic combos:

  1. magma metal acid
  2. magma acid fire
  3. magma acid shadow
  4. magma shadow lightning

does shadow in combo 3 and 4 work better than 1 and 2?

do i get (2nd/3rd magic)
  • yes
  • no

explosion plasma shadow is a good possible combination imo

Shadow is a rifle for mages, it is very reliant on damage and the blast spell so it is best combined with a magic that also relies on raw stats such as metal for AoE and bleed.

It’s up to you if you want Shadow because It’s for players who can aim well and want a generally good magic that wont fail in stats so it’s pretty good if you can land blasts + beam spells well. (Not saying it’s for these players specifically)

should i pick it if i cant hit opponents with blasts (its already hard in WoM, even worse in AO because of dashing)

I did say it’s not specifically used for good players, besides if you use Shadow magic some people might not know how to deal with it properly since they don’t see it every day, not that it makes a huge factor in PvP.

You can still hit fairly easily due to it’s decent AoE (which is getting buffed i think?) or you can play aggressive and get close and use the blast spell. (Or use pulsar lol)

i can still have absurd placed explosions (on par with magma metal cancer) with even less endlag… but do synergies outperform a shadow combo?

Shadow’s main strength is mainly it’s speed and AoE making it easy for players to hit mid air and have semi-reliability in it’s AoE, since blasts are the highest damaging mage spell and has the most versatility. The fact that it is fast, has decent AoE and doesnt create a crap ton of debris blocking you and your opponent’s vision and blast spells makes up for a very reliable magic.

Synergies could outperform shadow, yes but it really depends if you can land that 2nd hit for that damage boost, just choose what you want I’d have chose Shadow but I can’t go back changing my magic anymore…

i use shadow mage fot pvp but if ur magma go for smth else thats firey
(yes i saw your comment in my post)

lol im a shadow mage and have dogwater aim

As someone who doesn’t have the greatest aim following up with a second magic is a little challenging

i use placed explosions, also on my previous mage build (lightning/water), i didnt struggle that much landing synergies

Never have I seen someone mance the meta this much

I mean it wasn’t impossible but it was far easier for my friend since they were sailor fist and lightning, and do you got any tips since that’s the build I got rn
